Factors are used to adjust the
stress computed by the Lewis
equation. Factors are also used to
adjust the strength due to various
environmental conditions.
Shigley contains tables and charts
for many of these factors.
Assignment
1. A spur pinion has a pitch of 6 teeth/in, 22 full-depth
teeth, and a 20 degree pressure angle. This pinion
runs at a speed of 1200 rev/min and transmits 15 hp
to a 60-tooth gear. If the face width is 2 in, estimate
the bending stress.
2. A steel spur pinion has a module of 1.25 mm, 18 full
depth teeth, a pressure angle of 20 degrees, and a
face width of 12 mm. At a speed of 1800 rev/min,
this pinion is expected to carry a steady load of 0.5
kW. Determine the resulting bending stress.
