[0002] Chain drive is a transmission method that transmits the motion and power of a driving sprocket with a special tooth shape to a driven sprocket with a special tooth shape through a chain. Chain drive has many advantages. Compared with belt drive, it has no elastic sliding and slipping, accurate average transmission ratio, reliable operation and high efficiency; it has large power transmission, strong overload capacity and small transmission size under the same working conditions; it requires small tension and small pressure on the shaft; it can work in harsh environments such as high temperature, humidity, dust and pollution. In existing textile machines, the power transmission chain is generally equipped with a protective cover on the outside, while the protective cover currently used only covers the transmission chain and isolates the transmission chain from the outside world; After long-term use of the chain and sprocket, the lubricating oil on them becomes dry.
