DEVELOPMENT OF A QUICK-RELEASE CHAIN DESIGN FOR OPERATION AT LOW ROTATIONAL SPEEDS

Abstract

The scientific article deals with the development of a simplified design of a quick-disassembly chain for operation at
low rotation speeds. Such a chain can be made from round or shaped rolled products by stamping. The proposed special chain
design is quick to disassemble, inexpensive to manufacture, and capable of transmitting sufficiently large torques. You can
make a chain of different sizes, which allows you to have a fairly wide area of use. In addition, the technology allows the
production of such a chain from structural materials with different properties, which provides the opportunity to have the
necessary wear resistance and use it at high temperatures, for example, in conveyors used in the production of mineral wool.
