With the side roller chain is a kind of chain commonly used for automatic transportation, so today, let xiaobian take our production of the side roller chain as an example, take you to have an in-depth understanding of the side roller chain.

1. Classification and characteristics

1. According to the installation method of the roller

According to the installation mode of rollers, it can be divided into staggered installation type and symmetrical installation type.

Interleaved installation type

For each staggered link belt side roller, install the plastic brake roller, with each three links (the chain corresponding to the side roller of the diagonal line in the legend) as the standard.

Symmetric installation type

For every two chains of the side roller, install the plastic brake roller, with every six chains (the side roller of the diagonal line in the legend) as the standard.

2. Divide it by the material of the side roller

According to the material division of the side roller, it can be divided into two categories: belt steel side roller type and belt plastic side roller type.

Plastic side roller conveying chain Belt steel side roller conveying chain uses carbon steel or alloy steel as the material of the chain body and roller, which is characterized by high strength and high temperature resistance, suitable for the working environment with large transportation load, and is a "frequent customer" in industrial production and transportation. The side roller with plastic side roller is made of plastic, and the body chain can be made of steel, plastic or mixed materials according to different requirements. The advantage of using plastic makes the chain lighter and less noise during the operation, which is more suitable for the area with noise requirements. Meanwhile, due to plastic waterproof, the plastic side roller chain can also be used in wet places.

2. brief summary

First, the side-mounted roller chain facilitates the compact design of the transport aircraft. In use, a small transport machine can be directly installed on the side roller for transportation. At the same time, the side roller chain can be backbent, which is also conducive to the layout of the return side. Secondly, for the chain without rollers, if the force on one side of the chain is too large during operation, the wear on that side will increase, affecting the service life and working efficiency of the chain. The side roller can contact with the side of the track to enable the chain to obtain additional side support, so as to reduce the derailment or shaking of the chain due to the lateral force during the operation, and improve the stability and safety of the whole transmission system.
