Chain smooth about common sense and how to choose chain oil

Chain is one of the primary transmission parts of mechanical equipment in various industries, because it has accurate transmission power, stable, constant speed ratio, strong adaptability, not affected by size, convenient protection of iron chains and many other excellent characteristics, is widely used in all walks of life. Especially in today's highly automated production equipment, the chain has become one of the primary transmission components of mechanical transmission. How to make the transmission power of the chain better performance? In this Zhongyang smooth oil to tell us about the common sense of chain smooth.
1: Variety of chain
There are many categories of chains, which can be divided into: transmission chain, transport chain, decorative chain, cable chain and special chain, etc. According to the structure of the chain, it can be divided into roller chain, sleeve chain, plate chain, nylon roller chain, scraper chain, sleeve chain and so on.
2: Structure of the chain
We can see from the above several chain structures that most chains are composed of chain plates, chain pins, shaft bushings and other components. Other types of chains only make different changes to the chain plate according to different needs, some are installed on the chain plate scraper, some are installed on the chain plate guide bearings, and some are installed on the chain plate roller, etc., which are modified to use in different applications.
3: The first smooth part of the chain
For the usual chain, the smooth part is primarily the sprocket and chain roller, chain shaft and shaft sleeve. Because the structure of the chain is not the same, the smooth part of the chain may also change. However, in most chains, the smooth part is primarily the sprocket and chain roller, chain shaft and shaft sleeve. Because of the small gap between the shaft and the shaft sleeve of the chain, smooth is difficult to compare, how smooth? We'll elaborate on that below when the chain is smooth.
