Abstract

A split hub assembly including a split sprocket, a split hub, and members to connect the split sprocket together. The formed split sprocket is disposed over the split hub by complementarily tapered surfaces to maintain the split hub coupled together. Installation and removal of the present invention is significantly easier than standard prior art devices, plus it provides interchangeability of hubs and sprockets.
