Abstract
A method of manufacturing of power transmission chainby interconnecting plural link plateswith pins. Individual pin pairsare arranged and temporarily fixed to places. The link platesare sequentially stacked in layers by press-fitting respective through-holesof the link platesabout the respective pin pairs, whereby the link platesare interconnected to form a circular chain (an endless loop). Subsequently, the individual pin pairsare released from the temporarily fixed state. Thus, the manufacture of the power transmission chainis decreased in the number of operation steps, so that the chain may be assembled easily.
