Tooth shape: The tooth shape of a sprocket is usually a three-arc straight tooth shape, consisting of three segments of arcs and one straight segment. This tooth shape has lower contact stress at the meshing point, high load capacity, and can be processed using standard tools, making it easy to manufacture and maintain.
Parameters: The main parameters of a sprocket include the number of teeth, pitch, roller diameter, pitch circle diameter, outer circle diameter, and root circle diameter, among others. These parameters determine the size and performance of the sprocket, and also affect the compatibility with the chain and transmission efficiency.
