Define a Sprocket?
A sprocket, sprocket-wheel, or chainwheel is a profiled wheel with teeth, or cogs, that mesh with a chain, track, or other perforated or indented material. The name 'sprocket' applies generally to any wheel upon which radial projections engage a chain passing over it.
How to Calculate Number of Teeth given Maximum Tooth Height above Pitch Polygon?
Number of Teeth given Maximum Tooth Height above Pitch Polygon calculator uses Number of teeth on sprocket = 0.8*Pitch of Chain/(Maximum Sprocket Tooth Height-0.625*Pitch of Chain+Roller Radius of Chain) to calculate the Number of teeth on sprocket, The Number of Teeth given Maximum Tooth Height above Pitch Polygon formula is defined as the number of indentations that are present on the sprocket wheel. Number of teeth on sprocket is denoted by z symbol.
How to calculate Number of Teeth given Maximum Tooth Height above Pitch Polygon using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Number of Teeth given Maximum Tooth Height above Pitch Polygon, enter Pitch of Chain (P), Maximum Sprocket Tooth Height (hamax) & Roller Radius of Chain (R) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Number of Teeth given Maximum Tooth Height above Pitch Polygon calculation can be explained with given input values -> 18.52632 = 0.8*0.022/(0.0089-0.625*0.022+0.0058).
