5. Preferably, write the answers in sequential order.

Q 1) Attempt any THREE of the following (3*3) 9 Marks

a) Differentiate between Machine and Mechanism.

b) Draw a neat sketch of Whitworth’s Quick return mechanism
c) Draw labeled sketch of Oldham’s Coupling.
d) List four types of followers.

Q 2) Attempt any ONE of the following (1*8) 8 Marks

a) The crank of a slider crank Mechanism rotates clockwise at a constant speed of

300 rpm. The crank is 150mm and connecting rod is 600 mm long. Determine
angular velocity and angular acceleration of the connecting rod. When crank is
at an angle of 45º from Inner dead centre.
b) PQRS is a four bar chain with link PS fixed. The lengths of the links are
PQ=62.5 mm; QR=175mm; PS=200mm. The crank PQ rotates at 10 rad/sec
clockwise. Draw velocity and acceleration diagram when angle QPS=60°. Find
angular velocity and angular acceleration of link QR.

Q3) Attempt any ONE of the following (1*8) 8 Marks

a) Draw the profile of cam for knife edge follower

(i) Minimum radius of cam=50mm;
(ii) Stroke of Follower=30mm;
(iii) Outstroke 90º with uniform velocity;
(iv) Dwell for next 60º;
(v) Follower returns to original position during 90 °of cam rotation with uniform
velocity and dwell for remaining period. The axis of knife edge passes along with
axis of cam.
b) Draw the profile of cam to raise a valve with SHM through 40mm in 1/4 th of
revolution, keep it fully raised through 1/10th revolution and to lower it with
uniform acceleration and retardation in 1/6th revolution. The valve remains
closed during the rest of revolution. The diameter of roller is 20mm and
minimum radius of cam to be 30mm. The axis of valve rod passes through the
axis of cam shaft.
