Title:
A chain guide and a chain transmission
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP6265810
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
A chain guide includes a curved guide base (20) extending along the direction in which a torque transmitting chain (5) moves. The guide base (20) includes, on its surface opposed to the chain (5), a rolling guide portion (30) including a plurality of roller element bearings (31) which are rotatable and configured to guide the chain (5) while kept in rolling contact with the chain (5), and a sliding guide portion (40) in the form of a curved surface. The rolling guide portion (30) reduces a loss in torque transmission, while the sliding guide portion (40) reduces flapping of the chain (5), thus reducing noise and vibrations of the chain (5).
