PartDesign Sprocket

Description

This tool allows you to create a 2D profile of a sprocket (or chainwheel). It can be padded with the PartDesign Pad feature.

Usage

  1. Optionally activate the correct body.
  2. Go to the menu Part Design → [ Sprocket....
  3. Set the Number Of Teeth and the Sprocket Reference.
  4. Click OK.
  5. If there was no active body: drag and drop the sprocket into a body for the application of further features like padding.

Properties

  • Number Of Teeth: Number of teeth

  • Sprocket Reference: The sprocket type. A list of sprocket definitions. (v0.20) The list includes ANSI and ISO-norms as well as some bicycle and motorcycle sprocket definitions.

  • Pitch: Distance between two teeth

  • Roller Diameter: Diameter of the chain rollers the sprocket is designed for

  • Thickness:The principal thickness of the sprocket. Note: The sprocket cannot just be padded with this thickness because the teeth have side chamfers. Therefore look at the sprocket definition to model a valid 3D sprocket. (v0.20)
