Beck, Milwaukee, Wis., assignor to Chain Belt Company, Milwaukee, Wis., a corporation of Wiscousin This invention relates to improvement in the manufacture and construction of chain of the type having curled sections at the ends of the links, the links being connected by pins extending through the curled sections thereby forming a series of hinged joints. An example of such chain is shown in U. S. Patent No. 1,966,659 to Wynne et al., and the present invention will be describedin connection with chains of the type shown in the Wynne et al. patent.
It has heretofore been possible to produce chains of satisfactory strength for normal applications if the steel from which they are made is heat treated after forming to harden the links and to remove residual stresses created in the curled portions. When the chains are formed from what is commonly designated stainless steel of a type which it is not feasible to heat treat after forming, i. e., on account of its not responding to heat treatment, the yield strength is materially reduced because of the tendency of the curled portions to uncurl when a load is applied on the chain. This is partly caused by the ap plication of the load on the pitch line of the chain below the plane of the link, producing a moment tending to straighten out the curled portions. But the condition is exaggerated by the retention of stresses, due to the curling operation, which are nearly up to the yield point of the material. When such a chain is placed in tension, the stresses are cumulative resulting in yielding ofthe chain at a low work load.
The present invention provides a method whereby the links when formed and assembled will have residual stresses in the curled portions which will help to carry the load rather than add to the load, thereby increasing the working load capacity of the chain.
The invention has utility not only in connection with austenitio steels which are not readily hardened by heat treatment, but also when applied to other metals which respond to cold working, it provides. a procedure which may be used instead of heat treatment.
In the accompanying drawings, which illustrate one of the methods of practicing the invention and producing the improved chain:
Fig. 1 is an exploded, perspective view of two chain links of the type with which this invention is concerned; Fig. 2 illustrates a link of the type shown in Fig. l as it is held in a .die to over-curl the central knuckle at one end of the link;
Figs. 3, 4 and 5 illustrate successive changes in link contour as a result of the next forming operation;
, Fig. 6 is an enlarged side elevation of the curled portion illustrating the changes in contour as a result of the working operations; and
Fig. 7 is a graph showing the stress-strain relationship of links produced by the present method compared with those made in a conventional manner.
Referringto Fig. 1 of the drawings, eachof the links 11, which are formed from fiat plates of metal, has a central curled portion 12 at one end and spaced curled portions 13 at the other end. The curled portions 13 2,729,935 Patented Jan. 10,1956
are spaced apart a distance corresponding to the width of the central curl 12 and have cylindrical apertures of the same diameter as the aperture in the central curl so that a series of such links may be assembled end-to-end, with the holes in the overlapping, interfitted curled portions aligned. By inserting a connecting pin 13' through each set of aligned curled portions, an endless chain is formed having hinged, articulating joints. The knuckles ride in grooves in the sprockets, as illustrated in the Wynne et al. patent, and thus power can be transmitted to the chain to enable it to convey articles such as bottles, packages, etc. i
Experience has demonstrated that when a chain of the type described above is overloaded, the central curled portions 12 are the first to yield, and yielding manifests itself by the portion designated 18 lifting and tending to bend back on itself, which action will hereafter be referred to as uncurling. The result is an increase in the pitch, i. e., the distance between centers of the joints at the ends of each link, and such increase destroys proper action of the chain over the sprockets.
The present invention provides a method whereby residual compressive stresses instead of tension stresses are created inthe inside surface of the curled portion, which stresses resist the above described uncurling and greatly increase the yield strength.
From a practical standpoint, only the central curled portion 12 requires strengthening and the operations hereafter set forth will be described only in connection with that portion. Should it be necessary however to strengthen the curled portions 13, it will be appreciated that the same technique may be applied to do so.
In Fig. 2, the link formed in the conventional manner is placed in a fixed die member 14 which confines the spaced knuckles 13 and the flat central portion 15 of the link so that these portions are not affected by the forming operation illustrated in this figure. Relief is provided at 16 in the die 14 so that when the movable die 17 comes down on the back of the central curl 12, this portion of the link will be further curled or overcurled by shortening the pitch and increasing the distance from the center of the curl to the plane of the link.
The shape of the link after the above operation 'is illustrated in Fig. 3; the radius of curvature in the region designated 13 has been increased so that with the bottom portions 19 and 20 of the curled sections 12 and 13 respectively resting on horizontally aligned surfaces of the die 21, the flat portion 15 of the link slopes down wardly from the right to left as shown in said figure. The link is then brought to final shape by the die action illustrated in Fig. 4.
In Fig. 4, the movable die member 22 is illustrated engaging the flat central portion 15 of the link, while the opposite side of said portion as well as the two curled sections are resting on the die 21. The portion 18 of the curled section 12 is sprung upward just enough so that when the die 22 is retracted, as illustrated in Fig. 5, the correct final shape will result on account of springback of the metal.
The links are then assembled to make up the chain by inserting the pins 13 through the overlapping or interrect final shape. In either event, the pitch of the link at the end of the operation is less than the ultimate dethe. curled portions ..and,- then. pulling. these pins apart so that the-metal of .the linkisstretched beyond itselastic limit and beyond-the :final pitchrequired. -When the pressure is r'ele,ased, thefcurled or .eye portion 12 springs hack partially toapro duce the proper pitch. This" operatign.does'notaffeetthe. curled portion=13tor the reason heretofore. mentioned -that;:the portion 12 is the first to .yieldrunder conditions of overload.
Still another procedure is to assemble a strand of-links after theyuare eachshapedto formsirnilar to that shown in Fig. 3, and then to. grip the knuckles at the ends of the strandand pulltheentire strand -so .that the individual linksarestretched to.the correct pitch. Whilethereis some danger in the. latter procedure if the-links are nonuniform in ,physical characteristics that the individual links will be unevenly ..elongated,.if.the manufacture'of :theindividuallinks is. carefully performed, and uniform material isemployed, remarkable pitch accuracy is .obtained by this method, with resulting economy in manufacture.
:The eflect of the uncurling operation is illustrated in Fig. 6, wherein the full lines represent the position of the curled portion 12 of theilink. at the conclusion of the uncurling operation and the dotted lines the position and shape of, this portion priorto itsbeing uncurled. Residual-compressive stresseshavebeen imposed on'the inside'fibers ofthe curl at 23 and-residual tension stresses on theopposite outside fibers. The center of-the curl 12 has .now-beenmoved so as to form the correct pitch for the link.
.Inall threeprocedures, the stresses which are created are retained in the links when they are placed in service. Such residual stresses, i. e. stresses present when no load is applied, act in a compressive manner circumferentially onitheinside ofthe curled portion as a result of the-uncurling operation, instead of in a tensile manner, asthey formerly did.
TheIincrease in strength of thechain resulting from the present invention is-illustrated by-the graph shown in Fig. 7. In each test the ends of a strand of thirteen links of. chain werezheld in fixtures and the chains were pulled apartonia tensilettesting machine. Each curve represents an average of two or more tests. The load in pounds is plotted against elongation in inches.
.The chain test illustrated bycurve A involved a strand of standard 188 (18% chrome8% nickel) stainless steel chain .having one and one-half inch pitch-formed in the manner employed prior to the present invention. Atslightly over 200 pounds pull, A on the graph, elongationrdiscontinued being a straight line function of load, indicating the yield point of ,the chain.
The links used in the other tests,'hereafter described, were made frornthe same material, same gauge of metal, and in every respect were as similar as possible.
CurveB represents the stress-strain relationship of a strand of chain, the individual links of which wereformed bytollowing the operationdescribed in detail in the first part of thisdescription,usingthe dies illustrated in-Figs. 2-5. The yield point was increased trom 21-5 pounds'to 625ipounds, or roughly 300%.
