Optimal Design of Tooth Profile for Sprocket Wheel on No Arching Sintering Machine

Abstract:

Aimed at the instability factors of no arching sintering machine in the operation, their causes is analyzed, from the theoretical design, the composite tooth profile curve of sprocket wheel is optimized. Combined with the motion characteristics of the pallet car and the conditions required, by choosing proper motional parameters, a unified curve equation of tooth profile is gained. According to the actual size of the sprocket wheel, the two composite tooth shape of sprocket wheel before and after optimization is compared, and the velocity and acceleration characteristics of the composite tooth profile curve are analyzed. The results show that the optimized composite tooth profile curve of the sprocket wheel is more simple and reasonable, and can improve the engagement condition of the sprocket wheel and the pallet car, easy to manufacture, these provide a theoretical basis for the stability operation of no arching sintering machine.
