Abstract

This paper is dealing with the bases of the design and optimization of the chain guide system with practical application on the toothed chains for the timing mechanism of combustion engines. The main purpose of the present analysis is to determine the contact normal reactions which will be used for subsequent analysis on the tribological chain-guide contact. Equivalent stresses will also be analyzed in order to have an input for chain-guide contact pressures.
