A sliding gate opener’s “chain link” refers to the drive chain, a roller chain that connects the gate operator to the gate itself, enabling the gate to slide open and closed.This chain is a crucial component in automated sliding gate systems, transmitting the motor’s power to move the gate.
Here’s a more detailed explanation:
-
Drive Chain:The chain is a type of roller chain, similar to those used in bicycles, but designed for the heavier loads and specific requirements of gate automation.
-
Connection:It acts as the link between the gate operator’s motor and the gate, transferring the rotational motion of the motor to linear motion that moves the gate.
-
Purpose:The chain allows the gate to slide smoothly and reliably along a track (if applicable) or operate as a cantilever gate.
-
Types:While #41 and #40 chains are common for gate operators, larger sizes like #50 and #60 are used for heavier or industrial applications.
-
Maintenance:Regular maintenance, including lubrication and occasional replacement, is necessary to ensure the chain functions correctly and to prevent issues like stretching or wear.
-
Safety:Chains are often paired with safety features like limit switches to stop the gate’s movement when it reaches its fully open or closed position.
-
Installation:Chain drive gate openers can be installed on various gate types, including chain link gates and other sliding gate designs.
-
Accessories:Various components like master links (for connecting sections of chain), chain tensioners (to adjust slack), and chain stop brackets (to limit travel) are also available.
