ABSTRACT:
A silent or inverted tooth chain assembly includes links of different or unequal pitch lengths. Some sets of links have links of a first pitch length, while other sets of links have links of a second, or different pitch length. The pitch length of the links may be altered by varying the distance between the centers of the apertures of two links or the location of the apertures within the link. The links with differing pitch length may be randomly arranged in a prescribed pattern through the length of the chain. In addition to variation of pitch length, further randomization is achieved by including links of two different configurations.
