Question 1 |
A steel spur pinion has a module (m) of 1.25 mm, 20 teeth and 20^{\circ} pressure angle.
The pinion rotates at 1200 rpm and transmits power to a 60 teeth gear. The face width
(F) is 50 mm, Lewis form factor Y = 0.322 and a dynamic factor K_v = 1.26. The bending
stress (\sigma) induced in a tooth can be calculated by using the Lewis formula given below.
If the maximum bending stress experienced by the pinion is 400 MPa. the power transmitted is __________ kW (round off to one decimal place).
Lewis formula: \sigma =\frac{K_vW^t}{FmY}, where W^t is the tangential load acting on the pinion.
If the maximum bending stress experienced by the pinion is 400 MPa. the power transmitted is __________ kW (round off to one decimal place).
Lewis formula: \sigma =\frac{K_vW^t}{FmY}, where W^t is the tangential load acting on the pinion.

Question 1 Explanation:
\begin{aligned} F_{t} \times c_{v} s &=b m y\left[\sigma_{b}\right]_{\max } \\ c_{v} &=1.26 \\ F_{t} \times 1.26 \times 1 &=50 \times 1.25 \times 0.322 \times 400 \\ F_{t} &=6388.88 \mathrm{N} \\ P_{\text {angle }} &=F_{t} \times v=\frac{F_{t} \times \pi D_{p} N}{60} \\ &=\frac{6388.88 \times \pi \times 1.25 \times 20 \times 1200}{60}=10 \mathrm{kW} \end{aligned}

784.5N |
Question 4 Explanation:
Given,
\begin{aligned} d&=50 \mathrm{mm} \\ \omega&=200 \mathrm{rad} / \mathrm{s} \\ P&=3000 \mathrm{W} \\ \phi&=20^{\circ} \\ T&=\frac{P}{\omega}=\frac{3000}{200}=15 \mathrm{N.m} \end{aligned}
\begin{aligned} F_{T} \times r &=T \\ \therefore F_{T} &=\frac{T}{r}=\frac{15}{0.025}=600 \mathrm{N} \\ \therefore F_{T} &=F \cos \phi \\ F &=\frac{600}{\cos 20^{\circ}}=638.5 \mathrm{N} \end{aligned}
\begin{aligned} d&=50 \mathrm{mm} \\ \omega&=200 \mathrm{rad} / \mathrm{s} \\ P&=3000 \mathrm{W} \\ \phi&=20^{\circ} \\ T&=\frac{P}{\omega}=\frac{3000}{200}=15 \mathrm{N.m} \end{aligned}

40 | |
50 | |
60 |
Question 5 Explanation:
\begin{aligned} \frac{N_{P}}{N_{G}} &=5=\frac{T_{G}}{T_{P}} \\ T_{G} &=5 T_{P} \\ C &=\frac{m}{2}\left(T_{P}+T_{G}\right) \\ T_{P}+T_{G} &=\frac{2 C}{m}=\frac{2 \times 450}{5} \\ &=180 \\ \text{or }\quad 6 T_{P}&=180 \\ \text{or }\quad T_{P}&=30 \end{aligned}
