Knuckle Joint

Single eye or Rod end


Double eye or Forked end
Pin
Collar
Lock pin
Diagram For design procedure
Notations -

P = Tension in Rod
d = diameter of rod
d1 = diameter of pin
d2 = Outer diameter of eye
d3 = diameter of Pin head
t = thickness of rod end (single eye)
t1 = thickness of forked end (double eye)
t2 = thickness of Pin head and thickness of collar
Step 1. Design of Rod (d) -
 Tensile failure of rod
Load = R esisting area × Stress
P= π ×d ×σ t
2

4 find diameter of rod


Step 2. Decide other dimensions
using empirical relations
Dia. of knuckle pin = d1 = d
Outer dia of eye = d2 = 2d
Dia. of knuckle pin head & collar d3 = 1.5 d
Thickness of single eye or rod end t = 1.25 d
Thickness of fork t1 = 0.75 d
Thickness of pin head t2 = 0.5 d
Step 3. Check stresses in pin
Double shear failure of pin,

P= 2× π × d ×σ
2 Check σs
1 s
4
If fs(induced)<fs (allowable)........................Design is safe
Step 4. Check stress in single eye
A) Shear Failure of single eye (rod end)

P = ( d 2 − d 1 )× t × σ s Check stress
B) Tensile Failure of single eye (rod end)

P=(d 2− d 1 )×t ×σ t Check stress


C) Crushing Failure of single eye (rod end)

P = ( d 1 × t )× σ c Check stress
Step 5. Check stress in Double eye
A) Shear Failure of Double eye (Forked end)

P = 2×( d 2 − d 1 )× t 1× σ s Check stress

B) Tensile Failure of Double eye (Forked end)

Check stress
P = 2×( d 2 − d 1 )× t 1 × σ s

C) Crushing Failure of Double eye (Forked end)

P = 2 ×( d 1 × t 1 )× σ c Check stress
