Definitions
- the present invention relates to a power transmission chain used for a chain-type continuously variable transmission of a vehicle and the like, and a power transmission device using the same.
- Continuously variable transmissions (CVTs) of automobiles include, for example, a drive pulley provided on the engine side, a driven pulley provided on the drive wheel side, and a bridge between these two pulleys.
- Endless belt-shaped chains Some power transmission chains have a plurality of links and a plurality of pins interconnecting the links.
- traction is generated by the contact friction force acting between the sheave surface consisting of two conical surfaces provided substantially inside each pulley and the pin end surface of the chain. To transmit power.
- a chain friction transmission member is provided as a member separate from the pins at predetermined intervals in the longitudinal direction of the chain, and the friction is generated by the contact friction force acting between both end surfaces of the chain friction transmission member and the sheave surface to generate power. May be transmitted. Then, the distance (groove width) between the sheave surfaces of the substantially conical surfaces of the drive pulley and the driven pulley is continuously changed, so that the effective diameter of each pulley is continuously changed. As a result, the gear ratio changes continuously (steplessly), and it is possible to perform a continuously variable shift with a smooth motion different from the conventional gear type.
- JP-A-8-312725 discloses a power transmission chain for a continuously variable transmission that includes a plurality of links having first and second through holes arranged in the longitudinal direction of the chain, and one link. A plurality of pins and a plurality of interpieces are provided which penetrate the first through-hole and the second through-hole of the other link to link the links arranged in the chain width direction such that the links are flexibly connected in the longitudinal direction of the chain.
- a pin fixed to the first through hole of one link and movably fitted to the second through hole of the other link, and a pin movably fitted to the first through hole of the one link and the other link The inter-piece fixed to the second through-hole is relatively rolled and moved by the contact movement, whereby the bending is enabled, and the cross-sectional shape of the pin side surface is formed as a circular involute at the contact portion with the inter-piece.
- JP-A-63-53337 has a disadvantage that a long pin is more intensively worn than a short pin.
- the long pins are worn down intensively and shortened, there is no longer any difference in length, so the effect of reducing the generated sound is reduced with use, and sufficient effects cannot be obtained. Les ,.
- a longer pin is subjected to a larger force than a shorter pin, the load is concentrated on the longer pin and the durability of the chain is deteriorated.
- pins having different lengths must be managed, and these must be assembled separately, which increases the labor and time required for assembly.
- the present invention has been made in view of such circumstances, and has as its object to provide a power transmission chain capable of effectively reducing generated noise.
- first object of the present invention to provide a power transmission chain capable of effectively reducing generated noise while keeping the lengths of pins substantially the same. It is a second object of the present invention to provide a power transmission chain and a power transmission device using the power transmission chain, which can further reduce noise generated by polygonal vibration and effectively suppress noise generated during operation.
- a power transmission chain includes a plurality of links having through holes, and a plurality of links inserted through the through holes.
- a plurality of pins that are connected to each other, the first pulley having a conical sheave surface, and the second pulley having a conical sheave surface.
- a power transmission chain including a plurality of types of pins having different rigidities with respect to a force acting in the pin longitudinal direction. By doing so, a plurality of pins having different rigidities are used to reduce the sound pressure level of the generated sound S while keeping the lengths of the pins substantially the same. The principle S will be described later.
- substantially the same length in the longitudinal direction of the pins means that the longitudinal lengths of a plurality of pins are within the range of an error that would occur when trying to produce the same length by a normal method. means.
- the power transmission chain of the first invention viewed from another viewpoint includes a first pulley having a plurality of links and a plurality of pins interconnecting the links, and having a conical sheave surface. And a second pulley having a conical sheave surface, and used to transmit power by contacting both end surfaces of the pin with the sheave surfaces of the first and second pulleys.
- the plurality of pins have substantially the same length in the pin longitudinal direction and have different cross-sectional shapes or cross-sectional areas in a cross section perpendicular to the pin longitudinal direction.
- a power transmission chain characterized by including a kind of pin.
- the plurality of pins having different rigidities substantially reduce the length of the pins.
- the force at which the sound pressure of the generated sound is reduced while maintaining the same principle will be described later.
- the meaning of "different cross-sectional shapes or cross-sectional areas" is to compare the cross-sectional shapes or cross-sectional areas of both pins in each of the cross-sections with the same pin longitudinal position between the pins to be compared. If any one of the cross sections has a different cross-sectional shape or cross-sectional area, the cross-sectional shape or cross-sectional area is different.
- each of the plurality of pins has substantially the same cross-sectional shape and cross-sectional area at each position in the pin longitudinal direction within a single pin over the entire length of the pin.
- the configuration may include a plurality of types of pins having different cross-sectional areas among a plurality of pins. In this case, the pin shape is simpler than in the case where the cross-sectional shape and the cross-sectional area are different at each position in the longitudinal direction of the pin, and the pin is easily manufactured.
- the plurality of pins includes a plurality of types of pins having different widths in the longitudinal direction of the chain at the cross section, and the plurality of links have a pitch of the plurality of links.
- the link may include a plurality of different types of links, and the longer the link, the longer the length of the chain may be inserted. In this way, a link having a length corresponding to the width of the pins in the chain longitudinal direction can be formed, and a chain having a plurality of types of pins and having different pitches can be easily designed.
- the pitch refers to an interval in the longitudinal direction of the chain between pins passing through a single link. This pitch is the distance between the pins at the contact point between the pin and the strip, and such a pitch is measured with the chain unbent (straight).
- the cross-sectional area of the pin having the largest cross-sectional area is 1. It is preferably at least 1 and at most 2 times. 1. If it is less than 1x, the effect of providing a difference in cross-sectional area tends to be insufficient, and if it is more than 2x, the pitch (pitch) between the pins in the longitudinal direction of the chain becomes large, and the noise generated will be large. Although this tends to be large, this is not the case in this embodiment.
- the force transmission chain is used by being bridged between a first pulley having a conical sheave surface and a second pulley having a conical sheave surface, at predetermined intervals in the chain longitudinal direction.
- a power transmission chain for transmitting power by contacting end faces of a plurality of chain friction transmission members provided on the first and second pulleys, the first and second pulleys being arranged in the longitudinal direction of the chain.
- the second pin which is inserted and fixed to the second through-hole of the other link, is relatively movable in contact with the rolling force S, so that the first pin and the second pin can be bent.
- the trajectory of the contact position with the pin is a circle involute, and two or more sets of first and second pins having different base circle radii of the involute are formed, and the plurality of chain friction transmission members are formed. Is characterized by including a plurality of types of chain friction transmitting members having different stiffness against a force in a chain width direction.
- the trajectory of the contact position between the first pin and the second pin is formed as an involute of a circle, so that polygonal vibration is suppressed. Since two or more sets of the first pin and the second pin having different base circle radii of the involute are provided, the resonance of the polygonal vibration is suppressed, and the effect of suppressing the sound generated by the involute is further enhanced. . Furthermore, by using a plurality of types of chain friction transmitting members having different rigidities, the frequency of a sound generated when the chain friction transmitting member hits the sheave surface of the pulley is dispersed, and the peak value of the sound pressure level of the generated sound is reduced. .
- the chain friction transmitting member of the second invention may have a configuration in which all of the longitudinal lengths are substantially the same. In this way, it is possible to minimize the abrasion of the end face of the specific chain friction transmission member due to bias, and to provide a power transmission chain capable of maintaining performance for a relatively long period.
- the plurality of chain friction transmitting members may include a plurality of types of chain friction transmitting members having different cross-sectional shapes or cross-sectional areas in a cross section perpendicular to the chain width direction. .
- the rigidity between the chain friction transmitting members can be easily made different.
- the meaning of “different cross-sectional shapes or cross-sectional areas” means that, in each of the cross-sectional chain friction transmitting members having the same position in the chain width direction, both of them have the same position.
- the cross-sectional shapes or cross-sectional areas of the chain friction transmitting members are compared, and if even one cross-section has a different cross-sectional shape or cross-sectional area, it is determined that "the cross-sectional shape or cross-sectional area is different.”
- the first pin or the second pin may be a transmission pin that also serves as the chain friction transmission member. This eliminates the need to separately provide a chain friction transmission member separately from the pins, reduces the number of parts of the power transmission chain, and simplifies the assembly process.
- the plurality of transmission pins include a plurality of types of transmission pins having different chain longitudinal widths in a cross section perpendicular to the pin longitudinal direction, and the plurality of links have different pitches. It may be configured to include a plurality of types of links. In this case, the longer the link, the longer the link, so that the transmission pin, which is wider in the longitudinal direction of the chain, can pass through the transmission pin, so that the link has a length corresponding to the width of the transmission pin in the longitudinal direction of the chain. Can be Therefore, it is easy to design a power transmission chain having a plurality of types of transmission pins and different pitches.
- the pitch in the chain length direction of the transmission pin as the friction transmission member can be easily made different. If the pitch of the transmission pins in the chain longitudinal direction is different, the contact pitch between the transmission pin and the pulley is also different, so the period of the sound generated by the contact between the transmission pin and the pulley is dispersed, and the generated sound pressure level is reduced. The peak becomes smaller. If the transmission pin is wider in the longitudinal direction of the chain as the pitch is longer and the link is longer, the transmission pin pitch is made different while the transmission pin pitch is varied. It is easy to make the rigidity different for the force of the above, and the generated sound reduction effect is further enhanced.
- the pitch refers to an interval in the longitudinal direction of the chain between pins passing through a single link. The pitch is a distance between pins at a contact point between the first pin and the second pin, and is adjusted by a distance between the first through hole and the second through hole provided in a single link. In addition, this pitch is measured with the chain not bent (straight).

- Sticking Bends hereinafter referred to as circumferential bends, etc.
- One side of the pin 3 and one side of the strip 5 adjacent to the pin 3 are partially in contact with each other, and the contact state changes depending on the circumferential bending state of the chain 1.
- the mode of such a contact is a rolling sliding contact, that is, a rolling contact or a sliding contact or a combination of these two contacts. Of these contact modes, rolling contact is particularly preferred. In this case, vibration and noise during the operation of the chain 1 can be effectively suppressed.

- the lengths of the thick pin 3f and the thin pin 3h in the pin longitudinal direction are substantially the same.
- the term "substantially the same length in the longitudinal direction of the pins" means that the longitudinal lengths of a plurality of pins are within an error range that would occur when trying to fabricate the pins in the same length by a normal method. However, for example, the difference in the length in the pin longitudinal direction is set to 60 zm or less.
- the thick pin 3f and the thin pin 3h each have a cross-sectional shape (a cross-sectional shape in a cross-section perpendicular to the pin longitudinal direction.) ) And a cross-sectional area (a cross-sectional area in a cross section perpendicular to the pin longitudinal direction; hereinafter, also simply referred to as a cross-sectional area) are substantially the same over the entire length in the pin longitudinal direction.
- each pin has substantially the same cross-sectional shape at any position in the pin longitudinal direction. And have substantially the same cross-sectional area.
- the cross-sectional shape of the thick pin 3f is such that the cross-sectional shape of the thin pin 3h is enlarged in the longitudinal direction of the chain. That is, when the cross-sectional shape of the thick pin 3f and the cross-sectional shape of the thin pin 3h are compared with each other in a state where they are mounted on the chain 1, the two have substantially the same width in the chain thickness direction (vertical direction in FIG. 2). However, the width Lf in the chain length direction of the cross section of the thick pin 3f is longer than the width Lh in the chain length direction of the cross section of the thin pin 3h.
- the cross-sectional area of the thick pin 3f is 1.1 times and twice as large as the cross-sectional area of the thin pin 3h.

- the chain 1 configured as described above has the following operational effects.
- the noise generated when the chain-type continuously variable transmission 50 operates can be reduced.
- the principle is as follows.
- the chain-type continuously variable transmission 50 shown in FIG. 15 when the chain 1 advances to the sheave surfaces 12a, 13a, 22a, and 23a of the pulleys 10 and 20, three pins of the chain 1 Hit the sheave surface by collision.
- the pin 3 is pushed from its end face 3t by a sheave surface, and the pin 3 is deformed by receiving a force in the direction of compressing its length in the longitudinal direction (this deformation is referred to as compression deformation hereinafter).
- the chain 1 of the present embodiment includes a plurality of types of pins 3 having different cross-sectional areas in a cross section perpendicular to the pin longitudinal direction of the pins 3, that is, a thick pin 3f and a thin pin 3h.
- the large pin 3f and the thin pin 3h differ in the magnitude and time of the force pressing each sheave surface in the above sound generation principle.

- the frequency of the sound generated from the pulleys 10, 20 is dispersed, the peak value of the sound pressure level of the generated sound can be reduced, and the resonance of the pulleys 10, 20 can be suppressed. Therefore, the noise generated when the chain type continuously variable transmission 50 operates is reduced.
- Both the thick pin 3f and the thin pin 3h have the same cross-sectional shape and cross-sectional area at any position in the pin longitudinal direction within each pin. That is, within a single pin, the cross-sectional shape and cross-sectional area are the same at any position in the pin longitudinal direction.
- the two have a length in the chain thickness direction (vertical direction in FIG. 2).
- the width Lf of the thick pin 3f in the longitudinal direction of the chain is longer than the width Lh of the thin pin 3h.

To try The rod is longer and the long link 2f is used.
- the length of the link itself in the chain longitudinal direction is made different corresponding to the different pitch length.
- a plurality of links 2 having different pitches are used, and a link having a longer pitch has a wider pin penetrating in the longitudinal direction of the chain, thereby facilitating the design of the chain 1. That is, in order to reduce the noise generated by using a plurality of types of pins as described above, a plurality of types of pins are manufactured by changing only the width of the cross section of the pin 3 in the chain longitudinal direction. By appropriately changing the pitch of each link 2 in accordance with the length of the chain, it is possible to easily design the chains 1 having different pitches and cross-sectional lengths of the pins 3 in the chain longitudinal direction.
- the cross-sectional area of the thick pin 3f is 1.1 times and twice the cross-sectional area of the thin pin 3h. If this value is 1.1 times or less, the difference in the cross-sectional area of multiple types of pins becomes smaller, and the sound reduction effect described above tends to be insufficient. If this value is more than twice, the interval (pitch) between the pins in the longitudinal direction of the chain tends to be longer, which increases the sound energy and may increase the generated sound. .
- the cross-sectional area of the thick pin 3f is more preferably 1.5 times to 12 times the cross-sectional area of the thin pin 3h.
- the type of force pin that includes two types of pins 3f and 3h having different cross-sectional areas is not limited to the case of two types, but may be three or more types. Not even. Further, the cross-sectional areas may be the same and only the cross-sectional shape may be different. Even in such a case, the forces and timings applied to the pulleys 10 and 20 at the time of compression deformation and recovery deformation in the above sound generation principle are different.
- the cross-sectional area or cross-sectional shape of the pin For example, the cross-sectional shape and cross-sectional area of the pin between the pins to be compared are almost the same at each position in the pin longitudinal direction.
- only one of the pins may have a constriction, a concave portion, a convex portion, or the like in a part of the pin in the pin longitudinal direction, and the cross-sectional shape or the cross-sectional area may be different only in the relevant portion.
- the forces and timings applied to the pulleys 10 and 20 during the compression deformation and the recovery deformation in the sound generation principle are different.
- a wider pin is inserted in the chain longitudinal direction as the link has a longer pitch.
- the following modes (a) and (mouth) are used. Is included.
- a link is one of two through holes.

- link B in which a thin pin is inserted in both of the two through holes.
- the link is a link C with a thick pin inserted in both of the two through holes, and a thick pin is passed through one of the two through holes. If there are a total of three types, link D with a thin pin inserted in the remaining one through hole and link E with a thin pin in both two through holes, the pitch force of these links is:
- a plurality of types of pins having different cross-sectional areas are used.
- a plurality of types of pins having different stiffness against a force acting in the pin longitudinal direction may be included.
- the compression is performed at the time of compression deformation or recovery deformation based on the sound generation principle as described above. This is because the power and timing applied to the robots 10 and 20 are different.
- a method of changing the cross-sectional area or the cross-sectional shape of the pin to make the rigidity different, making the material of the pin different, or making the heat treatment of the metal pin different, etc. are appropriately adopted. The ability to do S.

- a single type of force link using a plurality of types of links may be used.
- the cross-sectional shape of the pin where the link is inserted is the same for all pins.
- a plurality of pins having the same cross-sectional shape and cross-sectional area and different materials are used between all the pins, or a plurality of pins other than the link insertion portion are used. It is possible to adopt a method of making the cross-sectional shapes at the positions in the pin longitudinal direction different from each other.
- the number of types of parts in the chain is reduced, parts management becomes easy, and the assembly of the chain is simplified, which contributes to cost reduction.
- FIG. 3 shows a power transmission device having a chain of Comparative Example 1 having substantially the same length in the pin longitudinal direction, one type of pin, and one type of link.

It is configured.
- the lengths of the thick pin 3f and the thin pin 3h in the pin longitudinal direction are substantially the same.
- the pin length in the longitudinal direction is substantially the same, which means that the longitudinal lengths of the pins are within an error range that would occur when trying to make the pins in the same length by a normal method.
- the difference in the length in the pin longitudinal direction is set to 60 ⁇ or less.
- the thick pin 3f and the thin pin 3h each have a cross-sectional shape (a cross-sectional shape in a cross-section perpendicular to the pin longitudinal direction.) ) And the cross-sectional area (the cross-sectional area in a cross section perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the pin; hereinafter simply referred to as the cross-sectional area) are substantially the same over the entire length in the longitudinal direction of the pin. That is, each pin has substantially the same cross-sectional shape and substantially the same cross-sectional area at any position in the pin longitudinal direction.
- the cross-sectional shape of the thick pin 3f is such that the cross-sectional shape of the thin pin 3h is enlarged in the longitudinal direction of the chain. That is, when the cross-sectional shape of the thick pin 3f and the cross-sectional shape of the thin pin 3h are compared with each other in a state of being attached to the chain 100, both have substantially the same width in the chain thickness direction (vertical direction in FIG. 2). However, the width Lf in the chain length direction of the cross section of the thick pin 3f is longer than the width Lh in the chain length direction of the cross section of the thin pin 3h.
- the cross-sectional area of the thick pin 3f is preferably 1.01 times and 1 times twice the cross-sectional area of the thin pin 3h. 12 times is more preferred.
- the shape of the through hole 4 of the link 2 corresponds to the shape of the thick pin 3f and the thin pin 3h. That is, the thick through hole 4f through which the thick pin 3f passes is larger than the thin through hole 4h through which the thin pin 3h passes.
- the first through hole 41 and the second through hole 42 which are the two left and right through holes 4 in one link 2, are mutually connected.
- the thick through-hole 4f is referred to as the narrow through-hole 4h
- the distinction between the first through-hole 41 and the second through-hole 42 should be considered.

Further, corresponding to the pitches PI and P2, the length X of the long link 2f in the longitudinal direction of the chain is longer than the length Y of the short link 2h in the longitudinal direction of the chain. Then, with the difference in pitch between the links 2f and 2h, the pitch of the pins 3 passed through these links also changes.

- the number of the longest links is preferably 1/4 or less of the number of the shortest links. If this ratio is too high, the number of links may be too long, and the number of links may be too long, resulting in an increase in the length of the pitch and an increase in generated sound. However, if this ratio is small, the effect of varying the link length decreases, so the number of longest links is preferably 15% or more of the number of shortest links.

- FIG. 15 is a perspective view showing a schematic configuration of a chain-type continuously variable transmission 50 provided with the chain 100 as an embodiment of the power transmission device of the present invention.
- the chain-type continuously variable transmission 50 can be used, for example, as a transmission for an automobile, and includes a metal drive pulley 10 as a first pulley.
- a metal driven pulley 20 as a second pulley, and an endless belt-like chain 100 bridged between the pulleys 10 and 20 are provided.
- the pulleys 10, 20 are made of metal such as bearing steel, for example.
- FIG. 15 a part of the cross section of the chain 100 is clearly shown for easy understanding.
- FIG. 16 is a cross-sectional view of the continuously variable transmission 50 at the pulley 10 or 20 (a cross-sectional view of the pulleys 10 and 20 taken along a radial direction).
- the end surface 3t of the pin 3 in the chain 100 comes into contact with the conical sheave surfaces 12a, 13a (22a, 23a) facing each other inside the pulley 10 (20), and this The traction is transmitted by the contact friction force.
- the pin 3 is a transmission pin also serving as a chain friction transmission member.
- the thin pins 3h and the thick pins 3f are arranged in an irregular order (randomly). Since the short link 2h and the long link 2f are also arranged in an irregular order, the pitches P1 and P2 are also arranged in an irregular order (randomly). Also, when two types of involute base circle radii are R1 and R2 and R1> R2, the involute base circle radius in the cross-sectional shape is the same as the R1 pin 3 and the R2 pin 3 is irregular. Are arranged in random order. It should be noted that “irregular order” does not need to be completely irregular over the entire circumference of the chain 100.
- the chain 100 configured as described above has the following operational effects.
- FIG. 8 schematically shows the trajectory of a pin when a conventional general chain is wound around a pulley in a side view of the chain.
- the figure shows the trajectory of a pin when the chain is wound around a pulley (not shown) located on the right side of the drawing while traveling from the left side to the right side of the drawing. It indicates the position (mm) from the insertion position, which is the position where the recording starts to be inserted.
- the chain On the leading side (right side in the drawing) of the chain in the advancing direction of the chain from the insertion position, the chain is wound around the pulley, and the locus of the pin has an arc shape corresponding to the winding radius of the chain 100.
- the trajectory of the pin vibrates up and down like a wave.
- This is a polygonal vibration.
- Such a polygonal vibration is caused by a chain connecting links, and when the chain is bent in the longitudinal direction of the chain, the chain does not completely form an arc but becomes a polygon.
- the tangential direction of the pulley and the pin entry direction are different at the insertion position, and the entry angle shown in FIG. 8 occurs, and the pin comes into contact with the pulley while descending.
- the amount of drop of the pin at the moment when the pulley comes into contact with the pin is shown as the initial insertion position change amount.
- the lowering of the pin causes a vertical motion in the chain, and the repetition of the vertical vibration causes a polygonal vibration.
- the trajectory of the contact position is a circle involute, the approach angle (see FIG. 8) is reduced, and the initial insertion position change amount is reduced, thereby suppressing polygonal vibration.
- the noise generated when the chain-type continuously variable transmission 50 operates can be reduced.
- the principle is as follows.
- the chain-type continuously variable transmission 50 shown in FIG. 15 when the chain 100 travels to the sheave surfaces 12a, 13a, 22a, and 23a of the pulleys 10 and 20, three pins of the chain 100 Hit the sheave surface by collision.
- the pin 3 is pushed from the end face 3t from the sheave face, and the pin 3 is deformed by receiving a force in a direction to compress its length in the longitudinal direction. (This deformation is hereinafter referred to as compression deformation, etc.).
- the pin 3 Due to this force, the pin 3 is elastically deformed and then deformed to recover its original shape (hereinafter, this deformation is referred to as recovery deformation, etc.). However, at the time of this recovery deformation, the sheave surfaces 12a, 13a, 22a , 23a.
- Such a principle (hereinafter also referred to as a sound generation principle) causes the pulleys 10 and 20 to vibrate, and this vibration generates sound.
- the chain 100 of the present embodiment includes a plurality of types of pins 3 having different cross-sectional areas in a cross section perpendicular to the pin longitudinal direction of the pins 3, that is, a thick pin 3f and a thin pin 3h.
- the large pin 3f and the thin pin 3h differ in the magnitude and time of the force pressing each sheave surface in the above sound generation principle.
- the form of the recovery deformation differs between the thick pin 3f and the thin pin 3h, and the magnitude and timing of the force applied to each sheave surface during the recovery deformation differ.
- the frequency of the sound generated from the pulleys 10 and 20 is dispersed, the peak value of the sound pressure level of the generated sound can be reduced, and the resonance of the pulleys 10 and 20 can be suppressed. Therefore, the noise generated when the chain-type continuously variable transmission 50 operates is reduced.
- Both the thick pin 3f and the thin pin 3h have the same cross-sectional shape and cross-sectional area at any position in the pin longitudinal direction within each pin. That is, within a single pin, the cross-sectional shape and cross-sectional area are the same at any position in the pin longitudinal direction. Therefore, since the shape is relatively simple, its manufacture is easy.
- the lengths in the chain thickness direction are as follows. Although almost the same, the width Lf of the thick pin 3f in the chain longitudinal direction is longer than the width Lh of the thin pin 3h.
- the pitch of the link 2 corresponds to the cross-sectional shape of each of the pins 3f and 3h. That is, the link 2 through which the thick pin 3f passes is provided with a thick through hole 4f which is a relatively large through hole 4 corresponding to the thick pin 3f. To respond, the pitch is longer and the long link 2f is used.
- the chain length of the link itself is The lengths in the direction are also different.
- a plurality of links 2 having different pitches are used, and a link having a longer pitch has a wider pin passing through in the longitudinal direction of the chain, so that the design of the chain 100 becomes easier. That is, in order to reduce the noise generated using a plurality of types of pins as described above, a plurality of types of pins 3 are prepared by changing only the cross-sectional width of the pin 3 in the chain longitudinal direction.
- a plurality of types of pins 3 are prepared by changing only the cross-sectional width of the pin 3 in the chain longitudinal direction.
- the link pitch of the long link 2f and the link of the short link 2h are different, and accordingly the pitch of the pin 3 in the longitudinal direction of the pin 3 is also different. Since the pitch of the pin 3 in the chain longitudinal direction is different, the contact pitch between the pin 3 and the pulley is also different. Therefore, the period of the sound generated by the contact between the pin 3 and the pulley is dispersed, and the peak of the generated sound pressure level is reduced. In addition, the longer the link, the wider the pins 3 are inserted in the longitudinal direction of the chain.This makes it easier to vary the pin 3 pitch and the rigidity of the pins 3 with respect to the force in the chain width direction. The effect of reducing the generated sound is further enhanced.
- the cross-sectional area of the thick pin 3f be 1.01 times and twice the cross-sectional area of the thin pin 3h. . If this value is 1.01 times or less, the difference in the cross-sectional area of a plurality of types of pins becomes small, and the sound reduction effect described above tends to be insufficient. If this value is twice or more, the pitch (pitch) between the pins in the longitudinal direction of the chain tends to be long, and the sound energy increases, which may increase the force generated by the force. is there.
- the cross-sectional area of the thick pin 3f is more preferably 1.5 times to 12 times the cross-sectional area of the thin pin 3h.
- the rigidity and the pitch of the pins are not limited to the two types as in the above embodiment, but may be three or more types. However, if there are too many types, the management cost and the manufacturing cost of the parts will increase. It is preferable that the pin stiffness, the pitch, and the base circle radius of the involute are two to three types, respectively, because a sufficient noise reduction effect can be obtained and the cost is well balanced.
- the pins may have the same cross-sectional area and differ only in the cross-sectional shape, or may have the same cross-sectional area or cross-sectional shape and differ only in the material. . Instead of using only different materials, the same material may be used for different heat treatments. Further, as another mode for making the rigidity different, for example, between the pins to be compared, the cross-sectional shape and the cross-sectional area of the pins are almost the same at each position in the pin longitudinal direction, but one of the pins is different. Only a part of the pin in the longitudinal direction may have a constriction, a concave part, a convex part, or the like, and the sectional shape or the sectional area may be different only in the part.
- a concave portion such as a groove is formed on the back surface 3d (see FIG. 6) opposite to the contact surface 3a of the pin 3. Accordingly, the pin cross-sectional area of the pin 3 can be changed.
- a plurality of identical pins 3 are prepared, and the presence or absence, shape, and arrangement of recesses such as grooves are changed on the back surface 3d of the pins 3 to change the pin cross-sectional area and the pin cross-sectional shape. Is also good.
- the rigidity can be changed only by performing simple processing (groove processing or the like), the type of the pin 3 can be easily determined by the groove, and even if the concave portion is processed, the contact surface 3a can be formed. There is an advantage that the cross-sectional shape and the shape of the through hole 4 are not affected.
- a link having a longer pitch has a wider pin penetrated in the longitudinal direction of the chain.
- a link is one of two through holes.
- link A in which a thick pin is inserted and a thin pin is inserted in one remaining through hole
- link B in which a thin pin is inserted in both of the two through holes.
- the pitch of the link A The mode of lengthening.
- a plurality of types of pin rigidity, a plurality of pitches, and a plurality of involute shapes are preferably arranged in an irregular order (randomly).
- experiments are performed on a large number of chains in which each arrangement pattern is randomly changed, or a computer is simulated to determine the optimal arrangement IJ with a small generated sound. be able to.
- the relationship between the amplitude of polygonal vibration and the pitch tends to increase as the pitch increases (see FIG. 9).
- the relationship between the approach angle and the pitch shown in FIG. 10 also tends to increase as the pitch increases.
- the amplitude of the polygonal vibration does not increase so much even if the base circle radius of the involute is increased, while the approach angle becomes small when the base circle radius of the involute is increased as shown in Fig. 12. It tends to be smaller.
- the small turning radius is the case where the chain winding radius force is 1.65 mm, and the large turning radius is the case where the winding radius is 73.859 mm.
- the pin 3 having a smaller radius of the base circle of the involute has a lower pin rigidity. Pins with a small base circle radius tend to generate more sound (hitting sound), but by making the rigidity of the pin with a relatively small base circle radius relatively low, the magnitude of the sound (hitting sound) increases. It is a force that can absorb (relax) energy.
- FIG. 14 is a view for explaining this preferable shape, and is a side view of the pin 3 as viewed from the end face 3t direction.
- the working surface that comes into rolling contact with the strip 5 is the contact line A between the pin 3 and the strip 5 when the chain 100 is not bent (indicated by a dot in FIG. This is the area from the point A) to the contact line B (indicated by the points in FIG. 14).
- the sectional line of the contact surface 3a including the sectional line of the working side surface is formed by a smooth convex curve.
- the involute curve of the working side surface in the cross section of the pin 3 is such that the center M of the base circle radius Rb is arranged on the tangent SA at the point A of the cross section line of the pin 3.
- the base circle radius Rb is a distance dA (not shown) from a winding center (not shown in FIG. 14) to a point A when the chain 100 is wound on a pulley (not shown in FIG. 14). ) Is preferable because polygonal vibration is minimized.
- the distance dA also changes.
- FIG. 13 is a graph comparing the noise generated during operation of the power transmission devices of Example 2 and Comparative Examples 2 and 3 under the same conditions.
- Example 2 had the same configuration as that of the above-described second embodiment of the invention, and two types were mixed for each of the three items of the base circle radius of the involute, the cross-sectional area of the pin 3, and the pitch, and each was irregularly shaped. It was distributed in the United States.
- the cross-sectional shape of the pin 3 was a convex curve (Crowjung). It is not considered to be an involute, and has only one type of pin rigidity and pitch.
- Comparative Example 2 is a metal belt that has been conventionally put into practical use for CVTs for automobiles.
- the thin belt is arranged in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the belt and a number of thin tops are stacked in the longitudinal direction of the belt. It has a structure connected by a steel band.
- Comparative Example 2 although the noise generated was smaller than that of the conventional power transmission chain as in Comparative Example 3, the flexibility of the gear ratio was lower than that of Comparative Example 3 due to the relatively poor flexibility. It is generally known that it is smaller than the type.

- a configuration may be employed in which a plurality of chains are provided, and both ends of the chain friction transmission member are in contact with the sheave surface of the pulley to transmit power.
- a drive pulley 10 shown in FIG. 15 is attached to an input shaft 11 connected to the engine so as to be integrally rotatable, and has a fixed sheave 12 having a conical sheave surface 12a and a sheave surface 12a. And a movable sheave 13 having a conical sheave surface 13a that is arranged to face each other. Then, chain 1 (chain 100) is sandwiched between these sheave surfaces 12a and 13a with strong pressure. I'm sorry.
- a hydraulic actuator (not shown) is connected to the movable sheave 13, whereby the movable sheave 13 is movable in the axial direction of the input shaft 11.
- the opposing distance (groove width) between the opposing sheave surfaces 12a and 13a changes. Since the chain width of Chain 1 (Chain 100) is always constant, Chain 1 (Chain 100) winds at a radial position corresponding to the chain width, and the winding radius of Chain 1 (Chain 100) changes I do.

- the opposing distance (groove width) between the opposing sheave surfaces 22a and 23a changes. Since the chain width of chain 1 (chain 100) is always constant, the chain winds at a radial position corresponding to the chain width, and the winding radius of the chain changes.
- the groove width on the drive pulley 10 side is enlarged by moving the movable sheave 13 to reduce the winding radius of the chain 1 (chain 100) on the drive pulley 10.
- the groove width on the driven pulley 20 side is reduced by the movement of the movable sheave 23 to increase the winding radius of the chain 1 (chain 100) on the driven pulley 20.

- the link 2 By providing a communication portion R for connecting the first through hole 41 and the second through hole 42, the link 2 can be easily deformed, and when a large force is applied from the pin 3 or the strip 5, the peripheral portion of the through hole is formed. Stress concentration can be reduced, and the durability of the link is improved. This stress concentration relieving effect is particularly large in a press-fit chain in which pins and strips are fitted and fixed to the link (fitting, shrink fitting, cold fitting, etc.).
- the communication portion R is provided at a substantially central position in the link width direction between the through holes 41 and 42.
- the width of the communication portion R is relatively narrow, and in the modification shown in FIG. 18, the width of the communication portion R is relatively wide.
- the width of the communication portion R is reduced, the rigidity of the link is increased as compared with the case where the width of the communication portion R is wide, and the deformation of the link when the link is manufactured by punching can be suppressed.
- the width of the communication portion R is increased, the deformation of the link 2 is further facilitated as compared with the case where the width of the communication portion R is narrow, so that the effect of reducing stress concentration is further increased.
- the width of the communication portion R may be appropriately determined depending on the link size, load condition, and the like.
- each of the through holes 41 and 42 has a function of guiding the rolling contact movement of the pin 3 and the strip 5 (see FIG. 7).
- the communicating portion R is arranged so as not to impair the strong guide function. In order to maintain this guide function, avoid the contact surfaces between the pins 3 and the strip 5 and the inner peripheral surfaces of the through holes 41 and 42 (including all the parts that contact the rolling contact movement described above). It is preferable to provide a communication portion R. However, when a guide member having the above-mentioned guide function is provided separately from the link, the width of the communication portion R is made larger so that the portion having the above-mentioned guide function becomes It may be a link that does not exist.
