Trochoidal sprocket for roller chain drive system has been developed which is used for a positioning mechanism. This system consists of a conventional roller chain and a pair of trochoidal sprockets. These sprockets are generated using trochoidal loci, which the tooth profile is shifted. Especially, the developed system can eliminate backlash In this report, the kinematical tooth profile conditions are analyzed. Also a prototype of a trochoidal sprocket is constructed using the optimal values and is tested for the positioning performance. It is proved that the positioning performance can be improved using the developed sprockets, compared with the case of using conventional one.
