GUJARAT TECHNOLOGICAL UNIVERSITY BE SEM-IV Examination-Nov/Dec-2011 Subject code: 141902 Date: 30/11/2011 Subject Name: Kinematics Of machines Time: 02.30 pm -5.00 pm Total marks: 70
Instructions: 1. Attempt all questions. 2. Make suitable assumptions wherever necessary. 3. Figures to the right indicate full marks.

4. Illustrate your answer with neat sketches wherever required. Q.1 (a) Derive the expression for limiting tension ratio in case of flat belt drive. 07 (b) Derive the expression for the frictional torque of a flat pivot bearing 07 assuming (i) Uniform pressure theory (ii) Uniform wear theory. (a) Two shafts whose centres are 1 m apart are connected by a V-belt drive. The 07 driving pulley is supplied with 100 kW and has an effective diameter of 300 mm. It runs at 1000 r.p.m. while the driven pulley runs at 370 r.p.m. The angle of groove on the pulleys is 400. The permissible tension in 400 mm2 cross-sectional area belt is 2.1 MPa. The density of the belt is 1100 kg/m3. The coefficient of friction between the belt and pulley is 0.28. Estimate the number of belts required. Determine the percentage increase in power capacity made possible in 07 (b) changing over from a flat pulley to a V belt drive. The diameter of the flat pulleys is the same as the pitch circle diameter of the V belt grooved pulleys. The pulley rotates at the same speed as the grooved pulley. The belt materials are the same and they have the same cross sectional area, with coefficient of friction for both as 0.3. The groove angle of the V belt pulley is 600 and the angle of contact for both the cases is 1500. OR (b) What are different types of chains? Explain with neat sketches, the power 07 transmission chains. (a) Define: Kinematic link, Kinematic pair, Kinematic chain. 04 (b) Following data relates to reciprocating steam engine as shown in fig. Uniform 10 speed of crank = 240 rpm Radius of crank = 150 mm Length of connecting rod between center = 600 mm Direction of rotation of crank is clockwise. When the crank has turned 300 from I.D.C. Find: (1) Acceleration of piston (2) Acceleration of C.G. of connecting rod, C.G. being 200 mm from big end centre. A C 300 P OR O [P.T.O.

Sketch and explain any one type of 07 steering gear mechanism with its advantages. (a) Explain what is meant by the term Interference as related to toothed gears having profile? Discuss various methods used to avoid interference. (b) An epicyclic train is composed of fixed annular wheel A having 150 teeth. Meshing with A is wheel B which drives wheel D through and idle wheel C, wheel D being concentric with A. Wheels B and C are carried on an arm E which resolves clockwise at 100 r.p.m. about the axis of A and D. If the wheel B and D have 25 and 40 teeth respectively, find the number of teeth on C and sense of rotation of C. Also sketch the arrangement.

(ii) The follower remains at rest for next 300 of cam rotation. (iii) The follower is then descent to its original position during 600 of cam rotation with uniform acceleration and retardation. (iv) It remains at rest for the rest of cam rotation. Least radius of cam is 50 mm. If it rotates at 300 rpm, find maximum velocity and acceleration during ascent and descent. OR (a) Explain with the neat sketch the sun and planet wheel.
