Machine Design Problem Set

This document contains three gear strength problems. The first problem asks to determine the bending stress on a steel spur pinion transmitting 1.5 hp at 700 rpm. The second asks to determine the horsepower rating of a pinion with specified parameters and an allowable bending stress of 10 kpsi. The third asks to select a face width for a gear drive transmitting 1.5 hp based on an allowable contact stress of 100 kpsi.

Gear Strength Problems


1. A steel spur pinion has a diametral pitch of 12 teeth/in, 16 teeth cut full-depth with a 20
pressure angle, and a face width of 3/4 in. This pinion is expected to transmit 1.5 hp at a speed
of 700 rev/min. Determine the bending stress.
2. Determine the horsepower rating of a 20 full-depth spur pinion having 18 teeth, a diametral
pitch of 16 teeth/in, and a face width of 0.75 in. The speed is 1,000 rev/min, and the allowable
bending stress is 10 kpsi.
3. A gear drive consists of a 16-tooth 20 spur pinion and a 48-tooth cast-iron gear having a pitch
of 12 teeth/in. For a power input of 1.5 hp at a pinion speed of 700 rev/min, select a face width
based on an allowable contact stress of 100 kpsi.
