Question 1. Draw 3 teeth for the following pinion and gear respectively. The teeth
should be drawn near the pressure line so that the teeth from the pinion should
mesh those of the gear. Drawing scale (1:1). Either a precise hand drawing or
CAD drawing is acceptable. Draw all the trajectories of the involute lines and the
circles.
Specification: 18tooth pinion and 30tooth gear. Diameter pitch=P=6 teeth /inch.
Pressure angle:20°, 1/P for addendum (a) and 1.25/P for dedendum (b). For fillet,
c=b-a.
5. The figure shows a gear train. There is no friction at the bearings except for the gear tooth forces.
The material of the milled gears is steel having a Brinell hardness of 170. The input shaft speed (n2)
is 800 rpm. The face width and the contact angle for all gears are 1 in and 20° respectively. In this
gear set, the endurance limit (Se) is 15 kpsi and nd (design factor) is 2.
(a) Find the revolution speed of gear 5.
(b) Determine whether each gear satisfies the design factor of 2.0 for bending fatigue.
(c) Determine whether each gear satisfies the design factor of 2.0 for surface fatigue (contact stress).
