Assignment II
1) A sun wheel of 28 teeth is in mesh with a planet of 18 teeth and both are held in an arm. The planet
wheel is in contact with an internal wheel of 64 teeth which is coaxial with the sun wheel. Sketch the
arrangement of the gears band compute the angular velocity ratio between arm and the internal
wheel if sun wheel is fixed.

2) An epicyclic gear train consists of a wheel A with 72 internal teeth and gear C has 32 external teeth.
Thegear B meshes with both A and C and is carried on an arm EF which rotates about the centre of A
at 18 rpm. If gear A is fixed, sketch the arrangement and determine the speed of gears B and C.

3) In an epicyclic gear train, the internal wheels A and B and compound wheels C and D rotate
independently about the axis O. The wheels E and F rotate on pins fixed on the arm G. E gears with A
and C and F gears with B and D. All the wheels have the same module and the number of teeth are
TC =28, TD = 26, TE =TF = 18. (i) Sketch the arrangement (ii) find the number of teeth on A and B (iii)
if the arm G makes 100 rpm clockwise and A is fixed, find the speed of B and (iv) if the arm G makes
100 rpm clockwise and A makes 10 rpm counter clockwise; find the speed of wheel B.

4) A pair of involute spur gear with 160 pressure angles and pitch of module 6 mm is in mesh. The
number of teeth on pinion is 16 and its rotational speed is 240 rpm. When the gear ratio is 1.75, find
in order that the interference is just avoided; (i) the addenda on pinion and gear wheel; (ii) the
length of path of contact and (iii) the maximum velocity of sliding of teeth on either side of pitch
point.

5) In a reverted epicyclic train, the arm F carries two wheels A and D and a compound wheel B-C. The
wheel a meshes with wheel B and the wheel D meshes with wheel C. The numbers of teeth on wheel
A, D and C are 80, 48 and 72 respectively. Find the speed and direction of wheel D when wheel A is
fixed and arm F makes 200 rpm clockwise.
