[0036] Embodiment 1
[0037] Reference is made to the drawings Figure 1 — Figure 4The figure shows a schematic structural diagram of a preferred embodiment of a sprocket with an oil storage structure of the present application. The sprocket with an oil storage structure comprises a sprocket member 1, a through hole 2 disposed at the center of the sprocket member 1, a rotating structure 3 located within the through hole 2, a bearing member 4 mounted on the outer wall of the rotating structure 3 and connected to the sprocket member 1, and an oil storage structure 5 disposed on the rotating structure 3 and the bearing member 4.

[0039] See attached Figure 1 — Figure 4 As shown, in the present invention, the rotating structure 3 includes an inner cylinder 31 located at the center of the through hole 2, and a plurality of rolling elements 32 arranged around the outer ring wall of the inner cylinder 31. The rolling elements 32 are in contact with the bearing element 4 and are located in the oil storage structure 5.
[0040] The present application provides a rotation center for the rotation of the sprocket member 1 by setting the inner cylinder 31; and adjusts the sliding friction to rolling friction by setting the rolling member 32, thereby reducing the friction generated during rotation.
[0041] See attached Figure 1 — Figure 4 As shown, in the present invention, the height of the rolling member 32 is equal to the height of the inner cylinder 31. By limiting the height of the rolling member 32 to be equal to the height of the inner cylinder 31, the contact area between the rolling member 32 and the inner cylinder 31 is ensured, thereby ensuring the bearing capacity of the rotating structure 3. At the same time, the rolling member 32 is prevented from shaking up and down during operation, so that both ends of the rolling member 32 and the inner cylinder 31 are restricted by the saw chain guide, ensuring the stability of the rolling member 32 during use.
[0042] See attached Figure 1 —Figure 4 As shown in the utility model, the bearing 4 comprises a bearing ring 41, two limiting rings 42 arranged on the top surface and the bottom surface of the bearing ring 41 respectively; the inner ring wall of the bearing ring 41 is in contact with the rotating structure 3; the limiting ring 42 is used for limiting the chain wheel 1; wherein the limiting ring 42 protrudes from the surface of the chain wheel 1.
[0043] The utility model discloses a bearing ring 41 is arranged, cooperates with the upper inner cylinder 31 and forms the lubricating cavity 51, and the rolling element 32 is located in the lubricating cavity 51, so that the rolling element 32 can be lubricated, and the bearing ring 41 can limit the lubricating oil, prevent the chain wheel 1 from being thrown by centrifugal force when rotating, and the specific speaking, the distance between the top surface and the bottom surface of the bearing 4 and the height of the inner cylinder 31 are all greater than the groove width of the guide plate groove on the guide plate, so the lubricating oil cannot be thrown out from the gap between the guide plate groove wall and the chain wheel 1 by centrifugal force, and cannot be thrown out along the outer wall of the chain wheel 1, ensuring that the lubricating oil can lubricate the rolling element 32.
[0044] It needs to be specially pointed out that the saw chain guide plate head is provided with an oil injection hole, lubricating oil can be injected into the oil storage structure 5, the oil injection hole can be plugged by a rubber block, the rubber block is disassembled when oil injection is needed, and the lubricating oil is high-temperature lithium-based grease and other solid lubricating oils.
[0045] Referring to the accompanying drawings Figure 1 Figure 4 As shown in the utility model, the working principle of the utility model is as follows:
[0046] The staff injects lubricating oil into the lubricating cavity 51 in the oil storage structure 5 through the oil injection hole on the saw chain guide plate head, the chain wheel 1 drives the bearing ring 41 to rotate when the saw chain drives the chain wheel 1 to rotate, the bearing ring 41 rotates and rolls with the rolling element 32, the lubricating oil is also rotated by the rotation of the bearing ring 41, centrifugal force is generated, the lubricating oil affected by the centrifugal force is blocked by the bearing ring 41 and cannot be thrown out through the gap between the chain wheel 1 and the guide plate groove, so the lubricating oil can be stored in the lubricating cavity 51, ensuring that the rolling element 32 is lubricated.
[0047] Embodiment 2
[0048] Referring to the accompanying drawings Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown in the utility model, the difference between the embodiment and embodiment 1 lies in that the height of the rolling element 32 is less than the height of the inner cylinder 31 in the embodiment, the oil storage structure 5 further comprises two covers 52 arranged at the top end and the bottom end of the inner cylinder 31, the two covers 52 are flush with the plane of the inner cylinder 31, and the cover 52 is provided with an oil injection hole 521.
[0049] In this embodiment, the height of the rolling element 32 is reduced, and a cover 52 is provided on the inner cylinder 31 to seal the top and bottom of the lubrication chamber 51. Compared with the first embodiment in which the top and bottom ends of the lubrication chamber 51 are sealed by the saw chain guide, the cover 52 of this embodiment is independently sealed and will not be affected by the flatness of other parts, making the flatness easier to control, thereby reducing the difficulty of processing. Specifically, the sealing effect of the first embodiment is affected by the flatness of the inner cylinder 31. When the top surface or bottom surface of the inner cylinder 31 has poor flatness, the gap between the saw chain guide and the lubrication chamber 51 will become larger, which will increase the rate of lubricating oil loss. However, in this embodiment, the loss of lubricating oil in the lubrication chamber 51 through the gap will not be affected by the flatness of other parts.
[0050] Example 3
[0051] See attached Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the difference between this embodiment and the above embodiment is that, in this embodiment, two limit rings 42 are provided on the outer wall of the bearing ring 41 and are respectively located at the two ends of the bearing ring 41 .

[0053] Example 4
[0054] See attached Figure 9 — Figure 10 As shown, the difference between this embodiment and the above embodiment is that, in this embodiment, a groove 13 corresponding to the limit ring 42 is provided on the sprocket member 1, and the depth of the groove 13 is not greater than the height of the limit ring 42, which can reduce the groove depth of the groove for installing the sprocket on the saw chain guide, and can effectively ensure the strength of the saw chain guide.
[0055] Example 5
[0056] See attached Figure 11 As shown, the difference between this embodiment and the above embodiment is that, in this embodiment, a plurality of oil filling holes 521 are provided at equal angles on the cover 52. By providing a plurality of oil filling holes 521, this embodiment can replenish lubricating oil while also dissipating heat for the rolling element 32, thereby improving the heat dissipation effect of the rotating structure 3, and further improving the heat dissipation effect of the sprocket.
[0057] Example 6
[0058] See attached picture Figure 12 and 13As shown, the difference between the embodiment and the above-mentioned embodiment is that, in the embodiment, the chain wheel member 1 is a sprocket chain wheel which is integrally processed and formed; compared with the sprocket chain wheel of the above-mentioned embodiment, the sprocket chain wheel has lower machining precision requirement and lower machining cost; it should be particularly pointed out that the sprocket chain wheel can also be provided with equally-angled partition plates.
[0059] Embodiment 7
