And it is hinged with the first end of third swing arm 219, the second end of third swing arm 219 is connected on mounting plate 214, third swing arm 219
It is rotationally connected with by third shaft 227 in the second end of connecting plate 212, third shaft 227 is set to third swing arm 219
Between first end and second end, 219 second end of third swing arm is rotationally connected with 221 one end of the 5th swing arm, the 5th swing arm simultaneously
221 other ends are rotationally connected on pull rod 236, and first rotating shaft 224 and third shaft 227 are coaxial, and the second extension bar 231 passes through
Second notch 234 is simultaneously hinged with the first end of the 4th swing arm 220, and the second end of the 4th swing arm 220 is rotationally connected with the 6th pendulum
222 one end of arm, 222 other end of the 6th swing arm are rotationally connected on pull rod 236, and the 4th swing arm 220 can by the 4th shaft 228
It is rotationally connected in the first end of the connecting plate 212 adjacent with the connecting plate 212, the 4th shaft 228 is set to the 4th swing arm
Between 220 first end and second end, the second shaft 226 and the 4th shaft 228 are coaxial.
When chain is not yet engaged with gear 100, chain is in original state, and chain is in relaxed state at this time, can be very
It is easily mounted on gear 100, when gear 100 is engaged and worked with chain, the tooth 110 of gear 100 can squeeze the first chain
Column 215 or the second chain column 216, thus the opposite direction for driving the first swing arm 217 or the second swing arm 218 to rotate with gear 100
Rotation, so drive be connected to the first extension bar 230 or third swing arm 219 on the second extension bar 231, the 4th swing arm 220 with
The opposite direction rotation that gear 100 rotates, then the 5th swing arm 221, the 6th swing arm 222 rotation are driven, it is conducted eventually by pull rod 236
The 5th swing arm 221, the 6th swing arm 222 on to all chain sections 210 rotate, and drive the of all chain sections 210
Three swing arms 219, the 4th swing arm 220, the first swing arm 217, the second swing arm 218 rotation, the third swing arm 219 of any chain section 210
When rotation, due on the fixed mounting plate 214 for being connected to the chain section 210 of the second end of third swing arm 219, and third is put
The third shaft 227 of arm 219 is connected to the second end of connecting plate 212, and the first end of the connecting plate 212 is fixedly connected on one
On the mounting plate 214 of a chain section 210, so that chain section 210 can be to previous and gear 100 when third swing arm rotation
The chain section 210 of engagement is close, since chain is the closed loop surrounded by chain section 210, entire chain can be made more tight, from
And it is not easily to fall off, it improves the use quality of chain while saving chain maintenance cost and time, and the first chain column 215
Or second chain column 216 tooth 110 of gear 100 can be pushed down under the action of torsional spring, thus more not easy to fall off.
Further, the chain column of the chain is meshed with the tooth 110 of gear 100, and the tooth 110 of the gear 100 wraps
Include leading portion 112 and back segment 114, the opposite direction inclination that leading portion 112 is rotated relative to back segment 114 toward gear 100, the 5th swing arm
221, the 6th swing arm 222 is same swing arm, and chain column engages preceding state in a vertical shape with gear 100, the first swing arm 217, the
Two swing arms 218 are same swing arm, and third swing arm 219, the 4th swing arm 220 are same swing arm, first or second chain column 216
Preceding first, second, third and fourth swing arm is engaged with gear 100 to be in a horizontal state, when chain column is engaged with gear 100, the first swing arm
217, the second swing arm 218, third swing arm 219, the 4th swing arm 220 to vertical direction rotate, and with 100 rotation direction phase of gear
Instead, the 5th swing arm 221, the 6th swing arm 222 are rotated to horizontal direction, and identical as 100 rotation direction of gear.The tooth of gear 100
110 use segment design, and leading portion 112 and opposed rear end rotate opposite direction inclination toward gear 100, to rotate to chain column
When one buffer platform is provided so that gear 100 engages more smoothly with chain, each swing arm is using above-mentioned rotation direction energy
When so that chain column being engaged with gear 100, each chain section 210 is mutually drawn close, so that entire chain is more tight, anti-anti-avulsion
It falls.
Further, second notch 234 is arc notch, and the center of circle of the second notch 234 and the second shaft 226 are same
The heart, the first notch 232 include arch section and horizontal component, and the center of circle of arch section and first rotating shaft 224 are concentric, horizontal component
Length not less than 227 axle center of third shaft the distance between to 221 link position of third swing arm 219 and the 5th swing arm.First
Notch 232 has horizontal component, so that chain is will not interfere with when close to each other to the first extension bar 230, thus entire mistake
Journey is more smoothly.
Further, the groove 116 matched with chain column is equipped on the inside of the back segment 114 of the tooth 110, groove 116 is set
At leading portion 112 and 114 delivery position of back segment.Groove 116 can be positioned preferably to chain column, so that the pressure that chain column is more firm
On the tooth 110 of gear 100.
Further, the chain column includes column core and the column sleeve that is sheathed on outside column core, and column sleeve can be rotated around column core.Pass through
Column sleeve is set, so that chain column is more smooth in the operation of 110 surface of tooth of gear 100, reduces rubbing between 110 face of chain column and tooth
It wipes, to reduce noise.
The embodiments described above only express several embodiments of the present invention, and the description thereof is more specific and detailed, but simultaneously
Limitations on the scope of the patent of the present invention therefore cannot be interpreted as.It should be pointed out that for those of ordinary skill in the art
For, without departing from the inventive concept of the premise, various modifications and improvements can be made, these belong to guarantor of the invention
Protect range.Therefore, the scope of protection of the patent of the invention shall be subject to the appended claims.
