Refer to following figure, prove that, if BQ = BA = BC, the coupler curve traced by C will be symmetrical with respect to line QC, (C, is the position of C when A is at A,) @ State and prove Roberts-Chebyshev Theorem for four bar linkages (2x10=20 Marks) MODULE -II 4. Design a four bar mechanism with crank angles 0 y= 40°, 04 = 30°, 054=20° and follower angles $15 = 30°, $4 = 35°, 34 = 30°. Also find minimum transmission angle. a A dwell rise-dwell cam has a 1.05 cm rise with cycloidal motion in 136° of cam rotation. The follower is assembled with a 200 N/m retaining spring with no pre-load. The follower train has an equivalent mass of 1.54 gm and an equivalent spring constant of 3600 N/m. Determine the response of the system for a cam speed of 3500 rpm using Johnson's method. ‘420° full depth bevel pinion of pitch diameter 30 cm and face width 8 cm drives abevel gear at right angles. The pitch of gear set is 2 and pinion cone angle is 37.5” Determine the gear forces, if the input torque is 800 N-m. (2x10=20 Marks) 2 MODULE ~ III The total mass of a motor cycle with its rider is 200 kg and the resultant centre of mass is 0.6 m above the road level (when the machine is upright). The moment of inertia of each wheel of the motorcycle is 1 kg-m?. The engine rotates at a speed six times that of and in the same sense as the wheels. The moment of inertia of the rotating parts of the engine is 0.15 kg-m2. The diameter of the wheels is 0.6 m. Determine the angle of heel if the unit is travelling at a speed ‘60 km/hr along a curved road with a radius of 30 m. ol {AA 3 833 8. Compute the kinetic energy of the crank system in the configuration shown in figure. Piston A weighs 1 kg rod AB is 0.6 m and weighs 2.3 kg. and fly wheel D weighs 45 kg with a radius of gyration 0.4 m. The radius r is 0.3 m. At the instant of interest, piston A is moving to the right at a speed V of 3 m/sec. © Athin disc weighing 150 N rotates on rod AB at a speed W, of 110 rad/sec ina clockwise direction looking from B to A. The radius of the disc is 0.3 m and the disc is located 3 m from the centre line of the shaft CD, to which rod AB is fixed. Shaft CD rotates at W, = 50 rad/sec in a counter clockwise direction as we look from C to D. Find the tensile force, bending moment and shear force on rod AB at the end A due to the disc. d pyiesomle wD zlto soe [S2e- Al 8 le-_-3m —sp Poles wootius = o-3M Ww (2x10=20 Marks)
