It should be noted that similar numbers and letters represent similar items in the following figures, so once an item is defined in one figure, it does not need to be further discussed in subsequent figures.

[0041] Example 1:

[0042] This embodiment provides a wear-resistant driving sprocket, comprising:

[0043] The base body 1 is provided with an axial hole 2 in the axial direction, and a key groove 3 is provided on the inner wall of the axial hole 2;

[0044] A plurality of gear teeth 4 are provided and are arranged around the base 1 at equal intervals, and tooth grooves 5 are formed between any two adjacent gear teeth 4;

[0045] A rolling structure is provided in the tooth groove 5 and is used for rolling connection between the sprocket and the chain when they are in contact with the tooth groove 5;

[0046] The gear teeth 4 and the base body 1 are of an integrated structure.

[0047] It can be seen from this embodiment that by providing a rolling structure in the tooth groove 5 between adjacent gear teeth 4, the sliding of the chain and the sprocket when in contact in the tooth groove 5 is converted into rolling, thereby effectively reducing the wear on the tooth groove 5 and extending the service life.

[0048] Example 2:

[0049] This embodiment provides a wear-resistant driving sprocket. In addition to the technical solutions of the above embodiments, it also has the following technical features. The rolling structure includes:

[0050] The reinforcing rib 6 is mounted on the inner wall of the tooth groove 5, and an arc-shaped mounting groove 7 is formed on the inner wall surface of the tooth groove 5;

[0051] The rolling element is installed in the arc-shaped installation groove 7 and is used for rolling connection when the sprocket and the chain are in contact;

[0052] The reinforcing rib 6 and the base 1 are of an integrated structure, and the surface of the reinforcing rib 6 is arc-shaped and is adapted to the sleeve on the chain pin.

[0053] It can be seen from this embodiment that the provision of the reinforcing ribs 6 facilitates the improvement of the structural strength of the tooth groove 5 , and also facilitates the installation of the rolling element, thereby ensuring the rolling connection between the chain and the sprocket at the tooth groove 5 .

[0054] Example 3:

[0055] This embodiment provides a wear-resistant driving sprocket, which, in addition to the technical solutions of the above embodiments, also has the following technical features:

[0056] The rolling element includes a plurality of first rollers 8 installed along the arc-shaped installation groove 7, and the first rollers 8 protrude from the surface of the reinforcing rib 6 along the radial direction of the base 1;

[0057] The first roller 8 protrudes from the surface of the reinforcing rib 6 by 0.5-1 mm in the radial direction of the base 1;

[0058] Meanwhile, the first roller 8 may adopt a cylindrical structure.

[0059] It can be seen from this embodiment that by installing multiple first rollers 8 in the arc-shaped mounting groove 7, it is convenient to adopt rolling connection when connecting the chain and the sprocket at the tooth groove 5, thereby improving wear resistance and extending service life. In addition, the first roller 8 protrudes from the surface of the reinforcing rib 6 by 0.5-1mm, which can avoid excessive protrusion and affecting the embedded connection of the chain in the sprocket, thereby ensuring stability.

[0060] Example 4:

[0061] This embodiment provides a wear-resistant driving sprocket. In addition to the technical solutions of the above embodiments, it also has the following technical features:

[0062] The flange 9 is located on the gear tooth 4 and is radially arranged on both sides of the end of the gear tooth 4 away from the base 1;

[0063] The surface of the flange 9 is smooth and flat, so that the sprocket can slide away from the chain smoothly after the sprocket rotates.

[0064] At the same time, the flange 9 and the gear teeth 4 can adopt an integrated structure.

[0065] It can be seen from this embodiment that the provision of the flange 9 can promote the stability of the chain in the tooth groove 5 during transmission, reducing the risk of tooth jumping and chain derailment during chain transmission, and the smooth surface of the flange 9 and the second roller 11 on the flange 9 can facilitate smooth sliding away from the chain after the sprocket rotates, avoiding jamming and improving the stability of the sprocket during transmission;

[0066] At the same time, the provision of the flange 9 can improve the structural strength and wear resistance of the gear teeth 4 and extend the service life.

[0067] Example 5:

[0068] This embodiment provides a wear-resistant driving sprocket, which, in addition to the technical solutions of the above embodiments, also has the following technical features:

[0069] The flange 9 is provided with a mounting groove 10, and a second roller 11 is provided in the mounting groove 10, and the second roller 11 protrudes from the surface of the flange 9 in the radial direction of the base body 1;

[0070] The second roller 11 protrudes from the surface of the flange 9 by 0.5-1 mm in the radial direction of the base 1 .

[0071] It can be seen from this embodiment that by opening a mounting groove 10 on the flange 9 and providing a second roller 11, the relative movement between the flange 9 and the chain is also achieved by rolling, which further prevents jamming and reduces the frictional resistance between the two, making it easier for the chain to slide off the sprocket. The second roller 11 protrudes from the surface of the flange 9 by 0.5-1 mm. The small size of the protrusion can avoid affecting the chain sliding off the sprocket.

[0072] Example 6:

[0073] This embodiment provides a wear-resistant driving sprocket, which, in addition to the technical solutions of the above embodiments, also has the following technical features:

[0074] The first roller 8 and the second roller 11 are both axially provided with a circular hole 12, and mounting bolts 13 passing through the circular holes 12 are respectively installed on the reinforcing rib 6 and the flange 9;

[0075] The mounting bolt 13 is clearance-fitted with the circular hole 12 .

[0076] It can be seen from this embodiment that the rotation of the first roller 8 and the second roller 11 is ensured by axially opening a circular hole 12 in the first roller 8 and the second roller 11 and by the clearance fit between the mounting bolt 13 and the circular hole 12, and the structure is simple and the installation is convenient.

[0077] Example 7:

[0079] One end of the mounting bolt 13 is provided with an abutment head 14 for abutting against the surfaces of the reinforcing rib 6 and the flange 9 , and the other end is provided with an annular groove 15 in which a retaining ring 16 is installed.

[0080] As can be seen from this embodiment, by axially limiting the mounting bolt 13 with the retaining ring 16, the installation of the first roller 8 and the second roller 11 is facilitated, and the convenience of installing the first roller 8 and the second roller 11 is further improved.

[0081] Example 8:

[0082] This embodiment provides a wear-resistant driving sprocket, which, in addition to the technical solutions of the above embodiments, also has the following technical features:

[0083] The two radial side surfaces of the gear teeth 4 along the base body 1 form working surfaces, and the flange 9 and the reinforcement rib 6 are smoothly transitioned on the working surfaces.

[0084] It can be seen from this embodiment that the flange 9 and the reinforcing rib 6 make a smooth transition on the working surface of the gear tooth 4, which can avoid affecting the transmission between the sprocket and the chain, ensure the stability of the transmission, and prevent vibration caused by jumping, thereby ensuring the stability of the transmission connection between the chain and the sprocket.
