Page 1 ME 2D03 Fall 2023 Tutorial 3 ME 2D03 Fall 2023 Tutorial 3 Offroad Vehicle Competition You and your friends are travelling to a race meet for an offroad vehicle competition. The offroad vehicle (ATV) is being towed on a trailer by a truck (black) and the rest of your team is travelling in a passenger car (white). Upon arrival, you unload the vehicle and setup a diesel generator with a shaft output drive that will provide power to your team during the event. You also unpack your tools including a socket wrench with an angled drive for turning difficult-to-reach bolts on the ATV. Part 1 Flexible Couplings (10 points) In each case shown below, which type of flexible coupling do you expect to find? (U Joint, Double U Joint or Rzeppa Joint). Explain your answers. ATV’s Steering Shafts U Joint Double U Joint Rzeppa Joint None (Flexible Coupling N/R) Truck’s Drive Shaft (RWD) U Joint Double U Joint Rzeppa Joint None (Flexible Coupling N/R) Car’s Drive Shaft (FWD) U Joint Double U Joint Rzeppa Joint None (Flexible Coupling N/R)
Page 2 ME 2D03 Fall 2023 Tutorial 3 Part 2 Missing Bearing (12 points) After the first test run on the course, the ATV experienced a wheel bearing failure and needs a new bearing to compete. After searching for the spare bearing you find that it is missing. Instead you find a different bearing with an inner diameter of 38.10 mm ± 0.15 mm. If the ATV’s drive shaft that must be installed in the bearing has an outer diameter of 37.70 mm ± 0.20 mm, will the bearing always fit over the shaft with no interference? What are the maximum and minimum gaps between the bearing and shaft?
