[0031] To further elaborate on the technical means and effects adopted by the present invention to achieve the predetermined invention purpose, the following combines the drawings and embodiments to detail the specific implementation manner, structure, features and effects of the present invention as follows.

[0032] The present invention provides a sprocket design method for designing a sprocket. As Figure 1 shown, the sprocket generally includes a main body portion 11 and a plurality of teeth 13 provided on the outer peripheral edge of the main body portion 11. The teeth 13 include an outer tooth portion 132 and an inner tooth portion 134. For a sprocket, the design difficulties lie in the tooth profiles of the outer tooth portion and the inner tooth portion, as well as the design of the chain socket.

[0033] As Figure 2 shown, the sprocket design method according to an embodiment of the present invention includes the following steps:

[0034] S11, select the chain model and determine the number of teeth z of the sprocket. Usually, the chain model can be selected according to needs in the national standard or design manual.

[0035] S13, determine the link 10 according to the number of teeth z of the sprocket and the chain model, as Figure 3As shown in the figure, the link 10 is a closed ring composed of multiple flat chains 12 and multiple vertical chains 14 arranged alternately. The number of flat chains 12 and vertical chains 14 is the same as the number of teeth z of the sprocket. Among them, the link 10 is an intermediate component determined for the design of the sprocket. The link is a closed ring composed of an equal number of vertical chains and flat chains arranged alternately. In theory, the flat chain just meshes with the tooth profile of the sprocket, that is, the number of chains n of the link 10 is twice the number of teeth z of the sprocket, that is . Figure 3 The schematic diagram of the link structure when the number of teeth z of the sprocket is 5 is shown in the figure.

[0036] Specifically, the flat chains 12 and vertical chains 14 of the link 10 have the same structure as the flat chains and vertical chains of the selected chain, and the pitch circle radius R of the link is determined according to the number of teeth z of the sprocket and the chain model. In this way, the structure of the link 10 is determined.

[0037] Determining the pitch circle radius R of the link 10 includes the following steps:

[0038] S131, obtain half α of the pitch circle angle corresponding to a flat chain in the link. Specifically,

[0039] , where 2α is the pitch circle angle corresponding to a flat chain in the link, d is the chain diameter, p is the chain pitch, and z is the number of teeth of the sprocket.

[0040] S133, obtain the theoretical pitch circle radius r of the link according to half α of the pitch circle angle corresponding to the flat chain, d as the chain diameter, and p as the chain pitch. Specifically, .

[0041] S135, obtain the actual pitch circle radius R of the link according to the theoretical pitch circle radius r of the link 10 and the error coefficient .

[0042] Specifically, due to the error existing when the polygon approximates the ring, there is also an error in the theoretically calculated pitch circle radius r. Through comparison and calculation with the actual model, it can be known that when the number of teeth is 5, the error is only 0.75%, and the error decreases with the increase of the number of teeth. When the number of teeth is 36, the error is 0.016%, which can be completely ignored. When the number of teeth is greater than 36, it can be considered that the actual pitch circle radius R is equal to the theoretical pitch circle radius r. Then the number of teeth z and the error coefficient approximately have the following linear relationship:

[0043] .

[0044] The actual pitch circle radius R of the link is:

[0045] .

[0046] S15. Determine the overall contour of the sprocket according to the selected chain.

[0047] Specifically, determine the sprocket pitch angle according to the selected chain and the determined number of teeth of the sprocket , the sprocket pitch diameter , the outer diameter Dg of the sprocket, the diameter of the vertical groove of the sprocket's vertical ring , parameters such as the thickness W of the short tooth, etc.

[0048] The sprocket pitch angle Specifically:

[0049] , where z is the determined number of teeth of the sprocket.

[0050] The sprocket pitch diameter Specifically:

[0051] , where d is the chain diameter and p is the chain pitch.

[0052] The outer diameter Dg of the sprocket is specifically: . Since there is wear in the actual operation of the chain and sprocket, it is necessary to round the sprocket pitch circles to obtain the outer diameter Dg of the sprocket.

[0053] The diameter of the vertical groove of the sprocket's vertical ring Specifically: , where b is the maximum outer width of the chain, is the corresponding value of the chain, which can be queried by referring to the corresponding table.

[0054] The thickness W of the short tooth is specifically: , where , .

[0055] S17. Determine the external tooth profile of the sprocket according to the chain link 10.

[0057] Specifically, the external tooth profile outer diameter Dw1 is equal to the sprocket outer diameter Dg, the external tooth profile inner diameter Dn1 is equal to the diameter of the vertical groove of the sprocket's vertical ring , the standard opening angle β of the external tooth profile is equal to the sprocket pitch angle Twice that, the maximum opening angle δ of the external tooth profile is less than or equal to the sprocket pitch angle Three times that, and greater than the standard opening angle β of the external tooth profile. The distance L from the standard opening angle profile side line 31 of the external tooth profile of the sprocket tooth to the vertical chain center line of the corresponding chain link is half of the short tooth thickness W. Among them, the external tooth profile includes two parts: the standard opening angle profile side line 31 of the external tooth profile and the maximum opening angle profile line 33 of the external tooth profile. One end of the standard opening angle profile side line 31 of the external tooth profile is located on the inner diameter circumference of the external tooth profile, and the other end is connected to the maximum opening angle profile line 33 of the external tooth profile. One end of the maximum opening angle profile line 33 of the external tooth profile is located on the outer diameter circumference of the external tooth profile.

[0058] S19. Determine the internal tooth profile according to the chain link 10 and the external tooth profile of the sprocket.

[0059] Specifically, please refer to Figure 5 , determine the external diameter Dw2 and the internal diameter Dn2 of the internal tooth profile according to the external diameter Dw1 and the internal diameter Dn1 of the external tooth profile, determine the standard opening angle βn of the internal tooth profile according to the standard opening angle β of the external tooth profile, determine the standard opening angle profile side line 50 of the internal tooth profile according to the standard opening angle profile side line 31 of the external tooth profile, determine the tooth running side line 51 of the internal tooth profile according to the chain link 10, determine the tooth running minor diameter 53 of the internal tooth profile according to the chain diameter d, and determine the tooth running major diameter 55 of the internal tooth profile according to the chain link 10 and the tooth running minor diameter 53 of the internal tooth profile.

[0060] Specifically, the external diameter Dw2 and the internal diameter Dn2 of the internal tooth profile are respectively equal to the external diameter Dw1 and the internal diameter Dn1 of the external tooth profile. The standard opening angle βn of the internal tooth profile is equal to the standard opening angle β of the external tooth profile, and the standard opening angle profile side line 50 of the internal tooth profile is the same as the standard opening angle profile side line 31 of the external tooth profile. Map the outermost contour line of the flat chain 12 of the chain link 10 as the tooth running side line 51 of the internal tooth profile. The diameter dm of the tooth running minor diameter 53 of the internal tooth profile is equal to the chain diameter d. Make an auxiliary circle with the center at the far-end center point A of the adjacent vertical chain of the corresponding internal tooth. The auxiliary circle is tangent to the tooth running minor diameter 53 of the internal tooth profile, and the tooth running major diameter 55 of the internal tooth profile intersects with the auxiliary circle. Among them, the internal tooth profile includes the tooth running side line 51, the tooth running minor diameter 53, and the tooth running major diameter 55 of the internal tooth profile. The two ends of the tooth running minor diameter 53 of the internal tooth profile are respectively connected to the tooth running side line 51 and the tooth running major diameter 55 of the internal tooth profile. One end of the tooth running side line 51 of the internal tooth profile is located on the outer diameter circumference of the internal tooth profile.

[0061] In this embodiment, the sprocket design method further includes the steps:

[0062] Determine the inner hole diameter Dm of the sprocket and the length of the sprocket according to the size of the sprocket shaft.

[0063] When designing a sprocket, the model of the chain link can be drawn in a drawing software according to step S13, and then the overall contour of the sprocket can be drawn according to the parameters in step S15. Then, the contour lines of the outer tooth profile and the inner tooth profile of the sprocket can be drawn according to steps S17 and S19 respectively, and the 3D model of the sprocket can be obtained, thus completing the structural design of the sprocket. In steps S17 and S19, it is actually to make the chain link 10 just wrap around the designed sprocket, so that the designed sprocket can cooperate better with the selected chain.

[0064] In the sprocket design method of the embodiment of the present invention, the reverse design idea is adopted to jump out of the empirical formula for sprocket design, which can effectively reduce the design error and improve the design accuracy of the sprocket, so that the chain and the sprocket are almost perfectly matched, greatly reducing the quality problems such as chain mismatch, tooth jamming, tooth skipping or severe wear.
