Abstract

A sprocket wheel for a track-type machine may include a base portion having a rotational axis about which the sprocket wheel rotates, and a plurality of teeth extending radially outward from the base portion. The teeth may include a tip, a first side wall extending radially inward from the tip toward the base portion, and a first transition portion extending from the first side wall. The sprocket wheel may also include a first flat extending from the first transition portion toward a second flat of a circumferentially adjacent tooth. The first and second flats may form an apex. The sprocket wheel may further include a relief surface extending radially inward from the apex, with the relief surface defining a concave surface having a longitudinal axis transverse with respect to a radial plane perpendicular to the rotational axis of the sprocket wheel.
