DESIGN OF MACHINE ELEMENTS II

Assignment

1. Design a bushed-pin type flexible coupling for connecting a motor


shaft to a pump shaft for the following service conditions : Power to
be transmitted = 40 kW ; speed of the motor shaft = 1000 r.p.m. ;
diameter of the motor shaft = 50 mm ; diameter of the pump shaft
= 45 mm. The bearing pressure in the rubber bush and allowable
stress in the pins are to be limited to 0.45 N/mm2 and 25 MPa
respectively

2. A bracket in the form of a plate is fitted to a column by means of


four rivets of the same size, as shown in Fig. 9.39. A load of 100
kN is applied to the bracket at an angle of 60° to the horizontal and
the line of action of the load passes through the centre of the bottom
rivet. If the maximum shear stress for the material of the rivet
is 70 MPa, find the diameter of rivets. What will be the thickness
of the plate if the crushing stress is 100 MPa?
3. Fig. shows a welded joint subjected to an eccentric load of 20 kN.
The welding is only on one side. Determine the uniform size of the
weld on the entire length of two legs. Take permissible shear
stress for the weld material as 80 MPa.

4. The bumper springs of a railway carriage are to be made of


square section wire. The ratio of mean diameter of spring to the side
of wire is nearly equal to 6. Two such springs are required to bring to
rest
a carriage weighing 20 kN moving with a velocity of 1.5 m/s with a
maximum deflection of 200 mm. Design the spring if the allowable
shear stress is not to exced 300 MPa and G = 84 kN/mm2.
