1. (a) Differentiate between spur gears, bevel gears and spiral gears.
(b) Explain circular pitch, race flank with neat sketches on the spur gears.
2. .Initial tension in a belt connecting two pulleys is 1000 n, the minimum angle
of the belt is 150 degree and the coefficient of friction between belt and
pulley rim is 0.25. Determine the value of tension on the light and the slack
ends the power transmitted if the speed of the belt is 600 m/min.
3. A pulley running at 200 r.p.m drives another pulley at 400 r.p.m. It transmits
10 kw through an open belt. The width and thickness of the belt is 70 mm
and 10 mm respectively. The center distance between the pulleys is 5 m. the
smaller pulley is of 600 mm diameter and the coefficient of friction between
the belt and pulley is 0.25. Calculate the stress in the belt.
4. The pulleys of diameters 450 mm and 200 mm mounted on two parallel
shafts 1.5 meters apart are connected by leather belt 150 mm wide. if the
maximum safe tension of the belt is 15 N/mm width , calculate the maximum
power transmitted in case of (i) open belt drive ,(ii) crossed belt drive. Take
speed of belt as 9 m/s and the coefficient of friction between the and pulley
rim as 0.25.
5. A flat belt 8mm thick and 100mm wide transmits power between two pulley
running at 160m/min. The mass of belt is 0.9Kg/m length. The angle of lap in
the smaller pulley is 165 degree and the coefficient of friction between belt
and pulley is 0.3. If max permissible stress is 2MN/m 2 .find
(a) Maximum power transmitted
(b) Initial tension in the belt
6. A toothed gear A is to drive another toothed gear B. The centre to centre
distance between their axes of rotation is to be exactly 375 mm. Speed of
gear gear A is to be 500 r.p.m. and approximate speed of gear B is 350 r.p.m.
If each gear is of module 5, determine what should be the number of teeth of
each gear? In that case, what would be the actual speed of B? Assume that
gears are available with their teeth number divisible by 5.
7. A total speed reduction of 20 to 1 is required in two steps by means of spur
gears. The smallest wheel has 20 teeth, the largest 120 teeth and number of
teeth on intermediate gears increase in steps of 5. A choose a suitable train
of gears and also calculate the number of teeth on each gear and give a
sketch of gear train.
