Description: BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a tensioner lever which always applies an appropriate tension to a chain wound around a sprocket of a drive shaft and a driven shaft, and an opposite to the tensioner lever. The present invention relates to a structure in which shoes of a chain guide and a chain damper arranged on the side are attached without rattling. 2. Description of the Related Art FIG. 4 shows a general chain drive device. A chain (a) has a sprocket (d) attached to a drive shaft (b) and a driven shaft (c). (E), and the chain (a) is pressed by the tensioner lever (f) so that an appropriate tension is constantly applied. Accordingly, the vibration of the chain (a) traveling along with the rotation of the two sprockets (d) and (e) is suppressed, and the vibration is transmitted to the driven shaft (c) without delay. Further, by suppressing the vibration, the impact force acting on the chain (a) is eliminated, and the life of the chain can be improved. The tensioner lever (f) is pressed by the tensioner (g) and acts on the chain (a). There are various forms of the tensioner lever (f), and generally, a metal arm is used. A rubber or resin shoe is bonded to the arm, and the shoe is formed integrally with the arm. When the shoe is adhered to the arm, the shoe may be peeled off, and when the shoe is integrally formed with the arm, a molding die is required and the manufacturing cost is increased. [0004] Therefore, the separately manufactured arm and shoe are
There is known a tensioner lever assembled and fixed without using an adhesive. The “chain guide rail provided with a synthetic resin shoe” according to Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 7-36201 has a structure in which the shoe is detachably attached to a shoe support member. That is, the end hook piece formed on the shoe is engaged with the chain running start end of the shoe support member, and the L-shaped side engaging piece formed on the shoe is engaged with and attached to the shoe support member. I have. [0005] As described above, the shoe is detachably attached to the shoe support member. Since the L-shaped side engaging pieces are formed on both sides of the shoe, the shoe can be attached. Notch grooves are formed on both sides of the shoe support member, L-shaped engaging pieces are fitted from the notch grooves, and the end hook pieces are engaged with the chain running start end by moving in the chain running direction. I have. However, the strength is reduced by forming the notch groove in the shoe support member. Therefore, an "L-shaped engagement piece is formed on one side surface, a ridge is provided on the other side surface, and a U-shaped end hook piece engaged with the chain running start end is formed. A structure for preventing the lifting of the shoe of the lever "is known (Utility Model Registration No. 2519476). [0006] By forming the protruding strip on the other side in this manner, the shoe can be easily attached and detached without providing a large cutout on the side of the arm. However, the end hook pieces that are only engaged with the chain running start end are misaligned when a force in the opposite direction to the chain running is applied, and sometimes the end hook pieces are moved from the chain running start end. It will come off. Such a phenomenon is caused by the above-mentioned actual fairness 7-3.
The problem also occurs in the case of the “chain guide rail provided with a synthetic resin shoe” according to No. 6201. As described above, the shoe attached to the arm such as the tensioner lever has the above-mentioned problems. The problem to be solved by the present invention is this problem, and provides a shoe mounting structure in which the mounting and removing of the shoe is easy, and the shoe is not displaced or detached. [0008] The shoe mounting structure according to the present invention can be easily mounted on and removed from the arm, and does not displace. Therefore,
An L-shaped engaging piece is formed on one side of the shoe extending in a curved manner, and a ridge is projected on the back surface (contact surface with the arm) of the shoe. The L-shaped engaging piece and the protruding strip may be formed continuously over a predetermined length, or may be separately provided at a plurality of locations. At the beginning of the chain, a protrusion projects from the back of the shoe. A notch groove for engaging the L-shaped engaging piece is provided on one arm, and a protruding strip protruding from the rear surface of the shoe is formed on the outer periphery of the arm by forming a hole or depression. It can be fitted and has a groove at the starting end of the chain where the projection fits. Therefore, the shoe attached to the arm does not come off or float due to the engagement of the L-shaped engaging piece and the protruding strip, and the L-shaped projection engages with the notch groove and the projection engages with the groove. , Positioning in the longitudinal direction is performed, and rattling is prevented. Hereinafter, embodiments according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 shows an embodiment of the present invention and shows a specific example of a chain tensioner lever. The tensioner lever consists of a curved arm 1 and a shoe 2,
Is mounted on the outer periphery of the arm 1 and has a detachable mounting structure so that if the shoe 2 is damaged due to wear or the like, it can be replaced. FIG. 2 shows a state in which the shoe 2 is detached from the arm 1. The arm 1 is made of an aluminum alloy or the like. In order to make the windows, elongated windows 4, 4,... Are provided. The outer peripheral surface 5 has a smooth curved surface, and notches 7, 7... Are formed on one side surface 6. Holes 8 and 8 are provided in the outer peripheral surface 5 and penetrate the windows 4 and 4, and a groove 9 is formed in the chain running start end. One shoe 2 is manufactured by molding rubber or resin or the like, and is smoothly curved so that it can fit into the outer peripheral surface 5 of the arm 1. Guides 11 and 11 stand upright on both sides of the outer peripheral surface 10 on which the chain runs, and a projection 12 protrudes to the back side at the starting point of the chain running. It is protruding. Further, on one side surface of the shoe 2, L-shaped engaging pieces 13, 13,... Are formed facing the back side. The rear surface of the shoe 2 is in contact with the outer peripheral surface 5 of the arm.
9 and the L-shaped engaging pieces 13, 13...
, And the ridges are fitted into the holes 8,8. FIG. 1 shows a state in which the shoe 2 is attached to the arm 1, and FIG.
FIG. 3 is an enlarged view of the A section. (C) shows a case where the shoe 2 is attached to the arm 1, (a) shows a case where the shoe 2 is detached, and (b) shows a case where the shoe 2 is detached.
2 shows a case where 2 is attached to the arm 1. A ridge 15 protrudes from the back surface 14 of the shoe 2.
5 has a right-angled triangle, and the side forming the L-shaped engagement piece 13 has a locking surface 16 which rises vertically from the back surface 14.
It has become. The protruding strip 15 fits into the hole 8 formed on the outer peripheral surface 5 of the arm 1, while the locking surface 16 is
The ridge 15 can be locked by contacting the inner surface of the ridge. When removing the shoe 2 from the arm 1, if a pointed tool is inserted into the opposite side of the L-shaped engaging piece 13 to remove the ridge 15 from the hole 8, Moves to one side of the L-shaped engagement and comes off. Conversely, when the shoe 2 is mounted on the arm 1, the L-shaped engaging pieces 13, 13,... Are fitted into the notch grooves 7, 7,. If it is pressed in the direction of the arrow in that state, the ridge 15 can be fitted into the hole 8. In this case, the protrusion 12 at the chain running start end is also fitted into the groove 9. As described above, in the shoe mounting structure according to the present invention, the L-shaped engaging piece formed on the side face of the shoe is engaged with the notch groove on the side face of the arm, and the projecting ridge piece projecting from the back face is formed. The protrusion is fitted into the groove on the outer peripheral surface of the arm and the protrusion at the chain running start end, and the following effects can be obtained. As described above, the L-shaped engaging piece provided on the shoe is engaged with the notch groove of the arm, and the protruding strip is fitted into the hole so as to be locked. It does not come off the arm and does not float off the arm. Of course,
The shoe cannot move to the side. On the other hand, by fitting the projection into the groove, it is possible to prevent the arm from moving in the longitudinal direction and rattling, thereby suppressing noise and preventing damage to the shoe. Further, although the attached shoe is not displaced, the attaching / detaching operation can be easily performed.
