[0032] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , this embodiment provides a chain 100. The chain 100 includes a plurality of outer link plates 110 and a plurality of inner link plates 120. The plurality of outer link plates 110 and the plurality of inner link plates 120 are arranged in a staggered order in sequence along a preset direction and are connected in series to form a ring.

[0033] Wherein, each outer link plate 110 is connected to an inner link plate 120 by passing its pin shaft 101 through the sleeve 102 of the inner link plate 120, and a wear-resistant bushing 103 is arranged between the pin shaft 101 and the sleeve 102.

[0034] It should be noted that the preset direction is the extension direction of the chain 100.

[0035] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the working principle of the chain 100 is as follows:

[0036] This embodiment is described by taking the application of the chain 100 in a beverage filling line as an example. During its use, when connecting the outer link plates 110 and the inner link plates 120, a plurality of outer link plates 110 and a plurality of inner link plates 120 are arranged in a staggered order in sequence along a preset direction and are connected in series to form a ring; while when connecting the inner link plates 120 and the outer link plates 110, each outer link plate 110 is connected to an inner link plate 120 by passing its pin shaft 101 through the sleeve 102 of the inner link plate 120, and a wear-resistant bushing 103 is arranged between the pin shaft 101 and the sleeve 102.

[0037] Furthermore, through the above structural settings, the wear-resistant bushing 103 located between the pin shaft 101 and the sleeve 102 can be provided, thereby reducing the wear between the pin shaft 101 and the sleeve 102 during the operation of the chain 100. Thus, on the basis of reducing the wear between the pin shaft 101 and the sleeve 102, by setting the material of the wear-resistant bushing 103 or adjusting the processing, the wear-resistant property of the wear-resistant bushing 103 itself can be improved, thereby reducing the wear between the pin shaft 101 and the sleeve 102 during the relative rotation process.

[0038] Thus, based on the aforementioned structural settings, when the chain 100 is applied to a beverage filling line, due to the excellent wear resistance of the chain 100, it can meet the usage requirements of a beverage filling line that needs to be frequently started and stopped; and due to its excellent wear resistance, it can reduce its wear during the long-term and frequent start-stop working process, thereby improving its use stability, running accuracy, synchronism and quietness. Thus, the maintenance frequency can be reduced, thereby improving the operating efficiency of the beverage filling line.

[0039] It should be noted that when the chain 100 is applied to a beverage filling line, it can be applied to different mechanisms of the beverage filling line; in other embodiments of the present invention, the chain 100 can also be applied to other equipment.

[0040] Further, please refer to Figures 1 - 4 , in this embodiment, when the chain 100 is applied to a beverage filling line and used to transport materials or complete other actions, in order to facilitate its meeting the usage requirements, therefore, the chain 100 further includes a plurality of attachment plate links 130. Through the setting of the attachment plate links 130, it is convenient to connect with external accessories, so as to enrich or improve the functions to be achieved by the chain 100; specifically, a plurality of outer links 110, a plurality of inner links 120 and a plurality of attachment plate links 130 are arranged in a staggered order in a preset direction, and an outer link 110 or an attachment plate link 130 is connected between any two adjacent inner links 120, and then connected in series to form a ring.

[0041] Wherein, each attachment plate link 130 is connected to the inner link 120 by passing its pin shaft 101 through the inner link 120, and a wear-resistant bushing 103 is provided between the pin shaft 101 and the sleeve 102.

[0042] It should be noted that when the attachment plate link 130 is configured, its structural setting method and its connection method with the inner link 120 are the same, that is, through the above setting of the wear-resistant bushing 103, the comprehensive wear resistance of the chain 100 can be improved.

[0043] Further, please refer to Figures 1 - 4, in this embodiment, when configuring the wear-resistant bushing 103, to improve its stability during use and make the wear at each contact position between the pin shaft 101 and the sleeve 102 as consistent as possible to avoid local excessive wear, therefore, the length of the wear-resistant bushing 103 can be made the same as the length of the sleeve 102, and both ends of the wear-resistant bushing 103 are respectively abutted against the two outer link plates of the outer link section 110, or abutted against the outer attachment plate 131 and the outer link plate of the attachment link section 130. That is, in this way, when installing the wear-resistant bushing 103, the two outer link plates of the outer link plate and the outer attachment plate 131 and the outer link plate of the attachment link section 130 can play a role in limiting the wear-resistant bushing 103, preventing it from slipping relative to the axis of the pin shaft 101 during use, thereby improving the uniformity of wear and further improving the running stability.

[0044] Please refer to Figures 1 - 4 , in this embodiment, to facilitate the connection of the attachment link section 130 to external attachments, therefore, each attachment link section 130 is provided with an outer attachment plate 131, and a part of the outer attachment plate 131 bends and extends above the inner link section 120 connected to it to form a connection part, and the connection part is used to connect to external attachments.

[0045] Specifically, the connection part is provided with a connection hole group 132 for connecting to external attachments. Moreover, the connection hole group 132 includes a first connection hole 133 and a second connection hole 134, and the aperture of the first connection hole 133 is smaller than the aperture of the second connection hole 134. Among them, each outer attachment plate 131 is provided with two connection hole groups 132, and along the preset direction, the two connection hole groups 132 are located at opposite ends of the outer attachment plate 131.

[0046] Thus, through the above structural setting method, the docking with external attachments can be realized through the connection holes preset on the connection part, thereby improving the connection efficiency.

[0047] In addition, on the basis of the above structure, when configuring the connection part, to improve its stability during use, therefore, along the preset direction, the length of the connection part can be made greater than the length of the outer link plate of the attachment link section 130, and the width of the connection part can be made greater than or equal to the width of the inner link section 120 connected to it, so as to increase the running stability of the attachment link section 130 when connected with attachments in this way.

[0048] Based on the above content, please refer to Figures 1 - 4, this embodiment also provides a beverage filling line, which includes a plurality of beverage filling accessories and the above-mentioned chain 100; each beverage filling accessory is correspondingly connected to at least one attachment plate link 130. Among them, the beverage filling accessories can be adjusted according to the usage requirements, and during the installation process, the connecting part of the outer attachment plate 131 connected to the attachment plate link 130 can be adopted;

[0049] This beverage filling line can meet the usage requirements of frequent start-stop operations. Moreover, due to the excellent wear resistance of the chain 100, during the long-term frequent start-stop operation process, its wear can be reduced, thereby improving its usage stability, running accuracy, synchronism and quietness. Therefore, the maintenance frequency can be reduced, and the running efficiency of the beverage filling line can be improved. It should be noted that when using the above-mentioned chain 100 for the beverage filling line, it can be used in pairs or individually according to the usage requirements.

[0050] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention. For those skilled in the art, the present invention can have various changes and modifications. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
