Publication number: 20200072716Abstract: A chain abnormality detection device provided at a predetermined location on a circulation path of an endless chain includes a measurement start position detector, a reference position detector, and a distance measurement unit. The measurement start position detector detects that a measurement start position comes to a first predetermined position, and the reference position detector detects a timing when a reference position comes to a second predetermined position. The distance measurement unit measures a distance from the reference position to a subsequent reference position, at each of the timings. A difference calculator is provided which calculates a difference between the distance measured at the present time and the distance measured at the previous time, for the same reference position, and a breakage determination unit is provided which determines whether there is partial breakage, on the basis of the difference calculated by the difference calculator.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 23, 2019Publication date: March 5, 2020Inventors: Yoshihiro OKAZAKI, Tomonari SHIBAYAMA, Yuji SEKINO
