Chain drive for an internal combustion engine (ICE) between the ICE's crankshaft and camshaft, has driving and driven chain wheels with torque-proof links to assigned shafts and a continuous chain

摘要

Absorbing mechanisms are integrated in the raw material of chain wheels (6-8). This material has an elasticity module that is adapted to a drive mechanism and is selected in such a way that a vibratory system is stimulated by the drive mechanism and made up of the chain wheels, shafts (2-4) with contributory components and a continuous chain (5).
