Chapter XI: Section 11: Chains and Links

For Hooks, Swivels, &c., see Section 43.

=191. Ordinary long or short link chain.= It is sometimes made to exact pitch to fit a snug or sprocket wheel. See Nos. 1250 & 1251.

=192. Stud link chain.=

=193. Flat chain= for use on flat rim double-flanged pulley.

=194. Square link pitched chain= for sprocket wheel.

=195. Stamped link pitched chain= and special sprocket wheel.

=196. Ordinary pitched link chain.= Links drilled to templet.

=197 & 198. Pitched chains= to drive wheels with ordinary and special teeth.

=199. Another form of square link chain.=

=203. Gib and cotter attachment= for long link flat suspension chains.

=204 & 205. Drive chains.= See Ewart’s patent, No. 2752-76, and others. These chains are replacing belts for many purposes, as they give a positive drive, do not stretch so much, and last longer, besides which they are easily detached at any point, and a damaged link can be readily replaced.

=206 & 207. Thrust chains,= with friction rollers at each junction, used in hydraulic multiplying cylinder gear in some cases.

=208. Ewart and Dodge’s patent chain,= with renewable seatings between the links.
