Powered by AIKey considerations include selecting appropriate materials for shaft, bolt, and key to withstand operational stresses. Utilize the given permissible shear stress (33 MPa), crushing stress (60 MPa), and shear stress for cast iron (15 MPa). Calculate torque based on power (7.5 kW) and rpm, and use this torque to dimension the coupling components, ensuring that the designed dimensions can endure the shear and compressive stresses during operation .
The outer diameter and effective length of the bushes are determined based on bearing pressure and energy absorption requirements. Use the permissible bearing pressure for rubber bushes (1 N/mm²) to calculate A = F/p, where p is the bearing pressure and F is the force calculated from torque and shaft diameter. Determine the outer dimensions by positioning the rubber bush effectively over the pitch circle, maintaining the necessary clearance and fitment .
To determine the diameter of the pins, apply the permissible shear stress formulation τ = F/A, where τ is 35 N/mm². Calculate the force using torque T and the pitch circle diameter which is four times the shaft diameter. Thus, F = T/r, where r is the radius. Substitute into τ = (T/r) / (π/4 * d^2) to solve for the pin diameter d .
To determine key dimensions, use torque calculated from P=850 Nm at 320 rpm and the safe shear stress for key material (45 MPa). Shear stress τ = T/V, where V is the volume (area t by length l of the key), leads to τ = (2T) / (dlt). Solve for t (thickness) while balancing with material constraints to ensure structural integrity .
Evaluate the power by analyzing the key's ability to withstand the shear and compressive forces, using Syt = 300 N/mm² and factor of safety 2.8. Power P = 25 kW corresponds to a torque T which is calculated. Ensure τ and compressive stress do not exceed 0.577Syt for the given key length, determined based on power requirements and ensuring structural integrity through stress analysis .
Determine hub length by accounting for torque transfer efficiency and material limits. Use torque (850 Nm) and consider the flange thickness, bolts positioning (6 bolts on 125 mm circle), and hub material properties for durability. Hub length must accommodate the torque by providing adequate contact area while maintaining a balance against over-sizing which increases mass and stress .
To determine the diameter of the shaft, first calculate the torque (T) using the formula T = (P * 60) / (2π * N) where P is the power transmitted (5 kW) and N is the speed in rpm (720). Using the factor of safety and the permissible shear stress, apply T = π/16 * τ * d^3 to solve for the shaft diameter d. Given commercial steel properties (Syt = Syc = 240 N/mm²) and factor of safety of 3, derive τ from τ = Syt / (2 * factor of safety) to finally compute d .
Design the knuckle joint by considering allowable tensile stress (65 MPa), shear stress (50 MPa), and compressive stress (83 MPa). Determine dimensions such that the weakest section withstands the load using stress formulas: σ = F/A, τ = F/A, based on the permissible stresses—with the design focusing on optimizing area and fit to transfer the tensile load without failure .
Calculate the bolt diameter by considering the force acting on the bolts, derived from torque transmission. Force is given by F = T/r, where T is torque and r is the bolt circle radius. Use the safe stress for bolt material (55 MPa) in conjunction with the shear stress formula τ = F/A to determine the cross-sectional area and thus, the diameter of the bolts. Bolts must also fit within the mechanical constraints of the flange design .
To calculate the dimensions of the key, use the shear and compressive strength of the material. Determine the width (w) and thickness (t) of the square cross-section key utilizing w = t and considering the permissible shear stress τ = 0.5 Syt. Using the formula for shear stress τ = (2T) / (dw), solve for w, where T is torque derived earlier, and d is the shaft diameter .
