ABSTRACT:
A tension control device is disclosed which is particularly well suited to chain drive systems subjected to cyclic forces. The device includes a tension-setting adjustment mechanism affixed to a pivoted mounting plate and an arm means pivoted at one end, at the same location as said mounting plate, supporting a sprocket for engagement with the chain. Biasing and stop means coact with the mounting plate and the arm means to urge them apart and limit the maximum and minimum separation therebetween.
