    The document describes different types of power transmission systems: open drive, cross drive, quarter-turn drive, spur gear, and bevel gear. It provides examples of how the pulleys or gears rotate in each type. It then gives an example problem calculating the diameter of a driven pulley given the engine speed, pulley diameters, and required equipment speed. Finally, it lists the diameters and speeds of pulleys in a power transmission system and calculates the linear speed of the last pulley.

    Open Drive

    ▪ Pulleys rotate in the SAME direction. Gear Directions


    Example:
    Driver pulley moves clockwise
    Driven pulley moves clockwise

    Cross Drive

    ▪ Pulleys rotate in OPPOSITE directions.


    Example:
    Driver pulley moves clockwise
    Driven pulley moves anti-clockwise

    Quarter-turn Drive

    ▪ Pulleys rotate in the SAME direction.


    Example:
    Driver pulley moves clockwise
    Driven pulley moves clockwise

    Spur Gear Sample Problems:


    A forage chopper will be driven by a 5-HP
    diesel engine through a V-belt drive. The 10-
    inch-diameter engine has a linear speed of
    78.54 fps, while the required speed of the
    equipment is 650 rpm. Find the diameter of
    the driven pulley.
    650 rpm
    ▪ Gears rotate in OPPOSITE directions. 78.54 fps
    Example:
    Driver gear moves counterclockwise
    Driven gear moves clockwise D1 = 10 in ?

    121.78 in

    Convert linear speed (78.54 fps) to angular


    speed.
