ABSTRACT:
The pitch of the sprocket is adjusted by radially moving the sprocket teeth (2/24) outward: an annular array of evenly spaced ridges and notches are provided on the mounting surfaces (8) of the adaptors (3) or upon mounting surfaces (27) along the periphery on one side of an adaptor disc (25), and matching evenly spaced ridges and notches are provided on each tooth (2/24). The ridged and notched surfaces allow the teeth to be moved outwardly from the center of the adaptor one or more spaces at a time, while securing the teeth in all directions when bolted in place through the round and slotted holes.
