Profiles of the Wave Generators of the Chain-Wave Transmission

In the paper are obtained equations of curves of forms of infinite chain and waves generators of the Chain-Wave Transmission (CWT).

The obtained equations represent an equation of second order. In the paper are considered profiles of the waves generators of the CWT for various values of the waves number U. By the analysis of these equations is determined, that at the value of the waves number U = 1 the curve of places of the chain's roller centers assume the circle's shape, at the value U = 2 - the form of an ellipse, and at the value of U ≥ 3 take the parabolic form.
