A 500 pound weight is attached to a cable that is being lifted by a 10 inch diameter drum. The 48V DC motor selected has a no-load angular velocity of 800 RPM and a stall torque of 500 inch-pounds. A gearbox has been designed to spin the drum as quickly as possible. Assume that there are no friction losses in this system. The drum is driven by a 72-tooth gear with a diametral pitch of P=8, and is 3D printed such that it has a yield strength in shear of τy = 2500 psi. Assuming that the entire output torque required to turn the drum is produced by the force on one tooth, and that the gear tooth would fail by being sheared off at the pitch circle, determine the required gear face width, b, for a factor of safety of 3. Note that circular tooth thickness, t, at the pitch circle is π / (2P). Repeat for a gear made out of 6061 Aluminum (σy = 35 ksi, τy = 20 ksi). Only do the part for the 6061 gear do not do it for the 3D printed gear
A simple gear train is designed to transfer a constant angular velocity to a shaft which drives the crank in a four-bar crank-slider mechanism. The gear and the pin- ion in the gear train have 90 and 23 teeth, respectively. The gear has a constant an- gular velocity of (1.257) rad/s CCW. The slider is a piston that compresses air in- side a cylinder. The compressed air acts like a spring that exerts a restoring force to the slider. This equivalent spring has a stiffness of 2500 N/m and original length of 15 cm. Calculate the torque for the gear at the instant shown. The crank rotates with the same angular velocity of the shaft it is mounted on. Pay attention to the units. Given: Link 2, a = 7.5 cm Link 3, b = 25 cm 02 = 124.228° Horizontal length of the slider = 4 cm D= 31 cm R12 = 2.5 cm (Distance between CG2 and O2) R23 = 6.25 cm (Distance between CG; and A) u = 0.15 m2 = 0.5 kg m; = 1 kg m4 = 2 kg Ic2 = 2 kg.cm?

Two coaxial shafts A and B are geared together through an intermediate parallel shaft C. The wheels connecting A and C having a module of 2 mm and those connecting C and B have a module of 3.5 mm. Speed of B is less than 1/10th that of A. If the two pinions have each 20 teeth, find suitable number of teeth for the wheels to improve the performance of the mechanism, the actual velocity ratio, and corresponding center distance of shafts C and A.
