Chain Drive And Shaft Drive Analysis Oct 09, 2019

The biggest advantage of the chain drive is its low cost and wide applicability. When the engine is braked, the chain can have a lot of clearance, so it can absorb vibration. The chain drive efficiency is about 90%. The disadvantage is that the chain and gear friction easily make the chain slack, the gear wears, and the noise is high!

The biggest advantage of the chain drive is its low cost and wide applicability. When the engine is braked, the chain can have a lot of clearance, so it can absorb vibration.

 

The chain drive efficiency is about 90%. The disadvantage is that the chain and gear friction is easy to make the chain slack, the gear is worn, and the noise is high!

 

The difference between the shaft drive and the chain drive is that the shaft drive has a transverse torque due to the direction of rotation of the shaft perpendicular to the direction of the car. When the car rotates, the transverse torque is generated, so that the car tilts in the opposite direction of the axis rotation. The higher the speed, the greater the torque!

 

When the direction of rotation of the sprocket and the direction of advancement of the car are one, the generated torque is only to lift the front of the car, which has little effect on high-speed driving.

 

The chain drive features relatively low cost, simple maintenance, and is not durable (it will be reduced by the elongation of the transmission). It needs frequent lubrication and maintenance (cleaning and adjusting the chain length). Of course, the overall life of the belt transmission is much longer. .
