摘要

The sprocket wheel (1) has damping devices (5) arranged in the area of at least one end face (4). The damping devices have a flat supporting area (9) that faces the link plates, and whose supporting surface is configured in such a way that at least partial areas (10) of the link plates can be placed or supported on the supporting area. Preferably, the damping devices have a support elment (6) that supports a planar damping element (7). An Independent claim is included for a damping device for use with the sprocket wheel.
