Q.No. 3

a) Why chain drive?

Belt & rope drives slip

Cannot achieve perfect velocity ratio


Construction of a chain drive

Made of steel

Rigid links

Pin joints used to hinge the links to provide flexibility

Driver & driven wheels have teeth of special profile projecting out

Teeth fit into the recesses in the links of the chain

Toothed wheels are known as SPROCKET WHEELS or SPROCKETS

b) Optical Sensing

It is used to generate pulses proportional to the speed of the rotating shaf

Can be achieved by the following ways:

Attaching a disk, which has an alternate black and white pattern, to the shaf and reading the pulses
by a IR module pointed towards it

Using a slotted disk and a U shaped IR emitter detector pair to generate waveforms

Magnetic Sensing
Hall effect sensors – These make use of the Hall effect to generate pulses proportional to the speed of
the shaf

Passive magnetic sensors – These make use of variable reluctance to generate pulses

c) Principle of Operation:

One of the
windings,
connected
to a source
of ac voltage
draws
power into
the
transformer
and is called
primary
winding.

The other one is connected to the load and delivers power to it and is called secondary winding.

The application of ac voltage to the primary results in ac current in this winding and a corresponding
ac flux in the core. This flux links the secondary winding and produces an emf in it.

The emf so produced drives current and power to the load.

d) Ceramic capacitors

constituted from a sandwich of conductor sheets alternated with ceramic material

dielectric material is a ceramic agglomerate whose relative static permittivity value can be changed
from 10 to 10.000 by dedicated compositions
with low relative static permittivity value, have a stable capacitive value and very low losses, so they
are preferred in the floating and high precision circuits

Typically they have very small capacities, from some pF to some nF

Usage : high frequency applications

Question no-4

a) Bearings is a machine element which support another moving machine element

Other moving element is known as “journal”

Bearings are used for

Carry load

Reduce friction

Guide moving parts

Permits relative motion


between the contact surfaces
of the members while carrying
the load

Slight friction and wear


happens

To reduce wear, lubricants are


used
b) Based on the position of the axes of the shafs

Parallel

Intersecting

Non intersecting, non parallel

Leading edges of the teeth are not parallel to the axis of rotation, but are set at an angle

Engagement of gears is gradual and runs smooth & quiet


Spur gears make a characteristic whine at high speeds and can not take as much torque as helical
gears.

Spur gears are used for low speed applications and those situations where noise control is not a
problem

helical gears are used when the application involves high speeds, large power transmission, or where
noise abatement is important.

The speed is considered to be high when the pitch line velocity exceeds 25 m/s

Known as Bevel gears

Bevel gears are useful when the direction of a shaf's rotation needs to be changed.

Usually mounted on shafs that are 90 degrees apart, but can be designed to work at other angles as
well

Non parallel, non intersecting gears

Also known as skew bevel gears

c) A lever is a rigid rod


or bar capable of
turning about a fixed
point called fulcrum

Levers are simple


machines used to lif
load by the application
of small effort

The ratio of load lifed


to the effort applied is
called as mechanical advantage

A lever can be straight or curved

The force applied on the lever or by the lever may be parallel or inclined to one another
Consider a straight lever with parallel forces acting in the same plane as shown in fig

The points A & B through which the load and effort is applied are known as load and effort points
respectively

F is a fulcrum about which the lever is capable of turning

First type lever


Fulcrum is placed between load and effort

In this case, the effort arm is greater than load arm, therefore Mechanical Advantage obtained is more
than one.

If fulcrum at center: effort = load

Second Type

Fulcrum at one end of the bar and effort at the other end

The load is in between the Fulcrum and effort.

Magnifies force and reduces distance

Third type lever

The effort is in between the fulcrum and load.

The effort arm is less than load arm therefore the mechanical advantage is less
than one
. Magnifies distance but reduces force

Examples : Hammer, fishing rod, tweezers
