example 1

[0115] Example 1 - How sprocket positioning affects the performance of two tension reducing sprockets on the first mode.

[0116] Figure 7 A system 200 is shown with two third order tension reducing sprockets 202 and 204 (one on each camshaft) to cancel a first mode resonance. There is no externally attached tension. Two other sprockets in the system include sprocket 206 and drive sprocket 208 . A chain having segment 210 runs between tension reducing exhaust sprocket 202 and drive sprocket 208 . Chain segment 212 , or segment 4 , runs between drive sprocket 208 and sprocket 206 . Segment 214 , or segment 3 , runs between sprocket 206 and tension reducing chain 204 . Segment 216 , or segment 2 , runs between tension reducing sprocket 204 (representing intake air) and tension reducing sprocket 202 .

[0121] Figure 8 A four sprocket system 300 is shown having two reducing sprockets driven by a drive sprocket 308 and a sprocket 306 between the two tension reducing sprockets 302 and 304 on shafts 1 and 3 respectively. Tension of sprockets 302 and 304 . Chain segment 310 , or segment 1 , runs between tension reducing sprocket 302 and drive sprocket 308 on axle 0 . Chain segment 312 runs between drive sprocket 308 and tension reducing sprocket 304 . Segment 314 , or segment 3 runs between tension reducing sprocket 304 and sprocket 306 on shaft 2 , and segment 316 or segment 2 runs between sprocket 306 and tension reducing sprocket 302 . Figure 8a shows that if all of these sprockets are regular sprockets at Figure 8 These tensions are generated in system 300 .

[0128] Figure 13 A seven sprocket system is shown in which drive sprocket 402 on shaft 0 is connected to sprocket 404 on shaft 1 by chain segment 1 (416) and chain segment 2 (418). Sprocket 404 on shaft 1 is connected to sprocket 414 on shaft 6 by chain segment 3 (420) and sprocket 406 on shaft 2 is connected to the chain by chain segment 9 (432) and chain segment 8 (430). On wheel 414. Sprocket 406 on shaft 2 is connected to sprocket 408 on shaft 3 by chain segment 4 (422). Sprocket 408 is connected to sprocket 410 on shaft 4 by chain segment 5 (424). Sprocket 410 is connected to sprocket 412 on shaft 5 by chain segment 6 (426). Finally, sprocket 412 is connected to sprocket 404 by chain segment 7 (428).

Abstract

In chain and sprocket systems with at least two resonance modes, two or more tension reducing sprockets are oriented to cancel each other at a first resonance mode and have no effect to increase tensions at such first resonance mode. The tension reduction sprockets, however, are oriented with each other so that tensions will be reduced at a second resonance mode. Hence, two or more tension reducing sprockets are used to reduce tensions at a second resonance mode from sources outside the chain and sprocket system while minimizing tension increases at first resonance mode.

Description

technical field [0001] This application claims the benefit under 35 USC 119(e) of U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 60 / 976,399, filed September 28, 2007, and U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 60 / 976,977, filed October 2, 2007, which are hereby adopted by References are hereby incorporated in their entirety. [0002] The invention relates to the field of pulleys and sprockets. More specifically, the present invention relates to a chain and sprockets for reducing resonance tension. Background technique [0003] Chain and sprocket systems are often used in automotive engine systems to transmit rotational force between multiple shafts. For example, a sprocket on the driven shaft can be connected by a chain to a sprocket on the idler shaft. In such a chain and sprocket system, rotation of the driven shaft and driven sprocket will cause rotation of the idler shaft and idler sprocket through the chain. In an automotive engine system, multiple sprockets on the cranks...
