    Cotter joints are used to connect two rods rigidly without allowing rotation. A cotter joint uses one or two cotter pins inserted through holes in the ends of the rods being joined. There are three main types of cotter joints: socket and spigot, sleeve and cotter, and gib and cotter joints. Socket and spigot joints have one rod end formed as a socket and the other as a spigot or pin that inserts into the socket. The document discusses the design, applications, advantages and disadvantages of cotter joints.

    WHAT IS A COTTER JOINTS
     
    • A cotter is a flag wedge  shaped piece of steel.
     
    • Cotter joint uses one or  two cotters to connect
    two rods rigidly transmitting
      forces and
    motion, with no rotation   of the rods
    IMAGES OF COTTER JOINT
    • TYPES OF COTTER JOINTS
    • 1.Socket and spigot cotter joint.
    • 2.Sleeve and cotter joints.
    • 3.Gib and cotter joints.
    Socket and spigot cotter joint
    .
    In a socket and spigot cotter joints, one end
    of the rods is provided with a socket type of
    end and the other end of the rod is inserted
    into a socket the end of the rod which goes in
    to a socket is also called spigot .a rectangular
    hole is made in the socket and spigot.
    • COTTER WITH ONE GIB
    • When one gib is used the cotter with one side
    tapered is provided and the gib is always on
    the outer slide.
    • COTTER WITH TWO GIB
    • When two gibs are used the cotter with
    both slide tapered is provided.
    Cotter without gibs

    • When the cotter alone is driven the friction


    between its ends.
    • The inside of the slots in the strap tends to
    cause the slides of the strap to spread
    outwards.
    APPLICATION OF COTTER JOINTS
    Connection of the piston rod with the cross
    heads.
    Connection of a valve rod to its stem.
    Joining of tail rod with piston rod of a wet air pump.
    • Advantages of cotter joints
    • Cotter joints can be easily made, and the parts
    always occupy exactly the same relative
    positions after reassembly
    • The joints can be used to connect similar pipes
    tubes.
    • It is quite rigid and can take both tensile and
    compressive loads.
    • Disadvantages of cotter
    • joints
    • Rectangular rods and dissimilar cylindrical
    rods cannot be connected usingthis joints.
    • The sleeve and cotter joints which cannot
    connect cylindrical members undergo
    rotation.
    • DESIGNING OF COTTER
    • SHEAR FAILURE OF THE COTTER
    • 2bt𝜏 =P
     
    • The width of the cotter b can be obtained
    • TAPER OF THE COTTER

    • To ensure that the cotter does not work back, the


    taper should not exceed 1 in 24

    FUTURE SCOPE
    • Cotter Joint has mainly three components – spigot,
    socket and cotter Spigot is formed on one of the
    rods and socket is formed on the other. The socket
    and the spigot are provided with a narrow
    rectangular slot. The cotter is tightly fitted in this
    slot. Spigot fits inside the socket and the cotter is
    passed through both the socket and the spigot. A
    cotter is a wedge shaped piece made of a steel
    plate. It has uniform thickness and the width
    dimension is given a slight taper.
