Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for assembling a chain as described in the preamble of claim 1.
- Such a method is known from GB 331093A.
- the stepwise moving support as used therein, is provided at one edge thereof, which cooperates with an upright stationary shroudplate , with a number of notches to act as a temporary support for the respective entities (which are, here, one-piece pins ) when the links are placed thereon by an assembling device.
- the finished chain leaves the assembling device in a direction tangential to this support.
- This method calls for complicated machinery to carry it out and is not suited to obtain complete chains which are, after their assembling has been completed and they are removed from the support, already closed in themselves and need no further handling for interconnecting the ends thereof.
- This known method is thus not suited to assemble closed chains of the type as known from, for instance, EP 0741255 in which the respective entities are not interconnected by just two links, but by a greater number of links in an intricate pattern. Particularly the interconnecting of the free ends of a section of such a chain is very difficult, if not impossible to achieve by means of this known method.
- the invention aims to improve this known method in such a way that the assembling of a chain, closed in itself and particularly with a complicated pattern of multiple links becomes easily possible, either manually or automated.
- the claimed exclusive rights include a device for carrying out the method as described above and as defined in claim 4, while a preferred embodiment thereof is described in claim 5.
- Figure 1 shows a complete device for assembling a transmission chain using the method according to the invention.
- This device indicated in its entirety by the number 2, consists of the base 4 from which the spindle 6 protrudes.
- An assembling plate 8 and a closing plate 10, shown in detail in Figure 2 can rotate about the spindle.
- the device 2 comprises the upright column 12 along which an arm 16 is guided that can be moved up and down by means of a simple mechanism, driven by the operating lever 18 in the direction of the arrows 20.
- the assembling plate which indeed could also be an assembling ring
- a ring of axial openings 30 for inserting those entities situated between the plate's raised outer edge 32 and a raised inner edge 34.
- Each of these openings has a configuration which corresponds to the outer contour of an entity of two elongated elements of the transmission chain to be assembled, each with their long sides lying against each other, as elucidated in detail by means of Figures 3 and 4.
- the upper surface 10a of the closing plate 10 to be placed under the assembling plate 8 is provided with a number of radial, shallow, recesses the width of which corresponds to the thickness of the longest elongated elements.
- a set of elongated transmission elements will consist of a long pin 42 and a little shorter roll-off strip 44; in use, the longer pins 42 are in contact with the tapered cone pulleys and realize the transmission of power to the link plates, a few of which are shown in detail in Figure 4 and are indicated by the numeral 46.
- Figure 3 shows the situation in which all the sets of pins and strips have been placed in the assembling plate and
- Figure 4 shows the start of the phase wherein the link plates 46 are being placed on the pins and strips. This takes place in accordance with the pattern desired and can easily be done manually or be carried out mechanically.
- the link plates are pressed onto the sets of pins and strips by the jaws 24 during the downward movement of the lever 18.
- Figure 5 shows the situation in which the transmission chain is halfway assembled; the upper part of each set of pins and strips is coupled to the adjoining set by a link plate.
- Figure 4 in particular shows a favourable detail of the configuration of pins and strips respectively and particularly the bevel 56 and 58 respectively on the head-end which makes it easier to place the link plates over the sets of pins and strips, especially when the pins and strips are coupled to the link plates with a light drive press-fit.
