Explain why bolts of uniform strength are preferred. Draw sketches of two different types of bolts of uniform strength

bolts of uniform strength: if a shank dia.is reduced to a core dia.as shown in fig. the stress become same through out the length of the bolt. Hence impact energy is distributed uniformly throughout the bolt length, thus relieving the threaded portion of high stress. The bolt in this way becomes stronger and lighter. This type of bolt is known as bolt of uniform strength.Another method of obtaining the bolt of uniform strength is shown in fig.in this method, instead of reducing the shank dia.an axial hole is drilled through the head down to

What are rolling contact bearings? State their advantages over sliding contact bearings.

Rolling contact bearing- contact between the surfaces is rolling ,it is antifriction bearing Advantages (any six) (1)low starting and running friction except at very high speed (2) ability to withstand momentary shock loads (3) accuracy of shaft alignment (4) low cost of maintenance (5) reliability of service (6) easy to mount and erect (7) cleanliness (8) small overall dimension

A bracket as shown in Figure No. 1 is fixed to a vertical steel column by means of five standard bolts.

Horizontal component of 45 KN, WH= 45Sin 600 =45x 0.866=38971N and vertical component of 45 KN, Wv,= 45xcos600 =45x0.5=22500N Direct tensile load in each bolt,Wt1= WH /5=38971/5=7794.20N Turning moment due to WH about G TH = WHx 25=38971x25=974275N (anticlockwise) direct shear load on each bolt =Ws=Wv/5 =22500/5=4500N Turning moment due to Wv about edge of the bracket, Tv= Wvx175=22500x175=3937500N-mm( clockwise( clockwise) Net turning moment =3937500-974275=2963225N---------(I) total moment of the load on the bolts @ th tilting edge = 2w x(L1) 2 + 2w x(L2) 2 =2xwx(50)2 + 2xwx(150)2 = 50000
