    This document contains 3 supplementary questions about gear trains: 1) A planetary gear train with a sun gear of 16 teeth, planet gear of 32 teeth, and ring gear of 80 teeth. When the input rotates at 1800 rpm clockwise, the sun does not rotate, planet rotates at 2700 rpm clockwise, and ring rotates at 2160 rpm clockwise. 2) An epicyclic gear train with a carrier input of 3600 rpm clockwise, 12 tooth sun, 3 planet gears of 18 teeth each spaced 120 degrees. The ring gear has 48 teeth and rotations are: carrier 3600 rpm clockwise, sun 0 rpm, planets 6000 rpm clockwise, ring 4500 rpm clockwise. 3) A gear train with bevel

    SUPPLEMENTARY QUESTIONS - TRANSMISSION

    1. (2007/2008/3 Main Q3)


    A planetary gear train is shown in figure. The carrier (link 2) serves as the input to
    the train. The sun (gear 1) is fixed and has 16 teeth and the planet gear (gear 3) has
    32 teeth. The ring (gear 4) serves as the output from the train and has 80 teeth.
    Determine the rotational velocity of all members of this gear train when the input
    shaft rotates at 1800 rpm clockwise.
    (Ans: sun = 0 rpm, planet = 2700 rpm CW, ring = 2160 rpm CW)

    2. (2009/2010/1 Main Q5)


    Figure below shows an epicyclic gear train. The carrier (link 1) is driven by an
    electric motor rated at 3600 rpm, clockwise. The sun (gear 2) is fixed and has 12
    teeth. The sun meshes with three planet gears (gear 3, gear 4 and gear 5) of equal
    size. The planet gears are spaced at an angular distance of 120 between each other
    and have 18 teeth each. The ring (gear 6) serves as the output from the train. All the
    gears have the same module.
    i.
    ii.

    Determine the number of teeth of the ring (gear 6),


    Determine the rotational velocity of all members of this gear train.
    (Ans: N6 = 48; 1 = 3600 rpm CW, 2 = 0, 3 = 4 = 5 = 6000 rpm CW, 6
    = 4500 rpm CW)

    3. (2010/2011/1 Main Q4a)


    Figure below shows the top view of a gear train which is consists of a pair of miter
    bevel gears (Gear 1 and 2) and three spur gears (Gear 3, 4 and 5). The gears have
    the following number of teeth: N1 = 30 teeth, N3 = 40 teeth, N4 = 45 teeth and
    N5 = 60 teeth. Gear 3 has a module of 10 mm.
    i.
    ii.
    iii.

    Determine the velocity and direction of gear 5 as gear 1 drives at 1200 rpm
    in the direction shown.
    Determine the center distance between gear 3 and 5.
    Explain briefly the purpose of gear 4.
