Theory
Explain with the diagram working of crank and slotted lever quick return mechanism.
Crank and slotted lever quick return motion mechanism:
Explain the phenomenon of slip and creep in a belt drive. State its effect on velocity ratio.
Slip of the belt: A firm frictional grip between belt and shaft is essential. But sometimes it becomes insufficient. This may cause some forward motion of the belt without carrying the driven pulley with it. This called as slip of the belt. It is expressed as a percentage.
Effect on velocity ratio: Result of belt slipping is to reduce the velocity ratio of the system.
State the type of power transmission chains. Describe any one with its sketch.
Types of power transmission chains :
Write the procedure for balancing of a single rotating mass by single masses rotating in the same plane.
Why roller follower is preferred over a knife follower ? State two advantages and application of roller follower.
In case of knife edge follower there is sliding motion between the contacting surface of cam and follower. Because of small contact area, there is excessive wear; therefore it is not frequently used. Whereas in roller follower there is rolling motion between contacting surfacing and more contact area, therefore rate of wear is greatly reduced.
Advantages: i) Less wear, more life ii) Less side thrust as compared to knife edge follower.
Application: Used in stationary oil and gas engines
