Roller chain couplings can be used for shafting transmissions of textiles, agricultural machinery, lifting and transportation, engineering, mining, light industry, chemical industries and other machinery. They are suitable for high temperature, humidity and dusty environments. They are not suitable for high speeds and severe impacts. In the case of load and transmission of axial force, the chain coupling should work under the conditions of good lubrication and a protective cover.
The characteristics of the roller chain coupling: The chain coupling uses a common chain and meshes with two parallel sprockets with the same number of teeth. The main difference between chain couplings of different structure types is that they use different chains. Common ones are Double-row roller chain couplings, single-row roller chain couplings, toothed chain couplings, nylon chain couplings, etc.The performance of the double-row roller chain coupling is better than that of other structural types. It is widely used (KC series sprocket coupling), and my country has also formulated it as a standard (GB6069-86).The chain coupling has a simple structure (composed of four pieces), convenient assembly and disassembly, no need to move the connected two shafts when disassembling, compact size, light weight, compensation capability, low requirements for installation accuracy, work, and long life , Low cost and other advantages.
