  2. Bicycle chain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bicycle_chain

    The chain in use on modern bicycles has a 1 ⁄ 2 inch (12.7 mm) pitch, which is the distance from one pin center to another, ANSI standard #40, where the 4 in "#40" indicates the pitch of the chain in eighths of an inch; and ISO standard 606 (metric) #8, where the 8 indicates the pitch in sixteenths of an inch.

  3. Roller chain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roller_chain

    Roller chain and sprocket The sketch of roller chain, Leonardo da Vinci, Codex Atlanticus. Roller chain or bush roller chain is the type of chain drive most commonly used for transmission of mechanical power on many kinds of domestic, industrial and agricultural machinery, including conveyors, wire- and tube-drawing machines, printing presses, cars, motorcycles, and bicycles.

  4. Chain drive - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chain_drive

    Chain drive was the main feature which differentiated the safety bicycle introduced in 1885, with its two equal-sized wheels, from the direct-drive penny-farthing or "high wheeler" type of bicycle. The popularity of the chain-driven safety bicycle brought about the demise of the penny-farthing, and is still a basic feature of bicycle design today.

  5. ANSI device numbers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ANSI_device_numbers

    In electric power systems and industrial automation, ANSI Device Numbers can be used to identify equipment and devices in a system such as relays, circuit breakers, or instruments. The device numbers are enumerated in ANSI / IEEE Standard C37.2 Standard for Electrical Power System Device Function Numbers, Acronyms, and Contact Designations .

  6. X-ring chain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X-ring_chain

    The X-ring chain is developed from O-ring chain which in turn is developed from non-O-ring chain. While the regular O-ring chain has high durability, it also has more friction (compared to other types of roller chains) due to distortion of the O-ring due to pressure from the inner and outer chain plates.

  7. Belt (mechanical) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Belt_(mechanical)

    The standard specifies test procedures, performance requirements, and dimensions to ensure the belts are reliable, durable, and suitable for automotive use. ASTM D378 is a standard developed by the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM), which focuses on the testing of conveyor belts used in various industries for specific applications.

  8. IS-41 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IS-41

    IS-41, also known as ANSI-41, [1] is a mobile, cellular telecommunications system standard to support mobility management by enabling the networking of switches. ANSI-41 is the standard now approved for use as the network-side companion to the wireless-side AMPS (analog), IS-136 ( Digital AMPS ), cdmaOne , and CDMA2000 networks.

  9. Kinetic chain length - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinetic_chain_length

    As the chain becomes longer, chain mobility decreases; that is, the chains become more entangled with each other. Glass-transition temperature - An increase in chain length often leads to an increase in the glass-transition temperature, T g. The increased chain length causes the chains to become more entangled at a given temperature.
