Number of Links in Chain given Length of Chain Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Number of Links in Chain = Length of Chain/Pitch of Chain
L_n = L/P
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Number of Links in Chain - Number of Links in Chain is the total count of individual links that are connected to form a chain in a geometric system.
Length of Chain - (Measured in Meter) - Length of Chain is the distance between the centres of two adjacent links in a chain, measuring its overall size and structure.
Pitch of Chain - (Measured in Meter) - Pitch of Chain is the distance between two consecutive identical links measured along the direction of the chain's length.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Length of Chain: 2310 Millimeter --> 2.31 Meter (Check conversion here)
Pitch of Chain: 22 Millimeter --> 0.022 Meter (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

L_n = L/P --> 2.31/0.022

Evaluating ... ...

L_n = 105

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

105 --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

105 <-- Number of Links in Chain

(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)

Pitch of chain given Pitch Circle Diameter

Go Pitch of Chain = Pitch Circle Diameter of Sprocket*sin(3.035/Number of Teeth on Sprocket)

Number of Teeth on Sprocket given Pitch Circle Diameter

Go Number of Teeth on Sprocket = 180*asin(Pitch of Chain/Pitch Circle Diameter of Sprocket)

Speed of Rotation of Driving Shaft given Velocity Ratio of Chain Drives

Go Angular Speed of Chain Driving Shaft = Velocity Ratio of Chain Drive*Angular Speed of Chain Driven Shaft

Velocity Ratio of Chain Drives

Go Velocity Ratio of Chain Drive = Angular Speed of Chain Driving Shaft/Angular Speed of Chain Driven Shaft

Number of Links in Chain given Length of Chain Formula

Number of Links in Chain = Length of Chain/Pitch of Chain
L_n = L/P
