(A) Description of device


Screw jack (refer Fig.1) is a simple machine, which is employed for
raising and lowering the heavy loads through some vertical distances
by applying comparatively very small force at the end of a long lever.
Small screw jack can be found in almost every automobile toolbox,
which is used to lift the automobile for changing a wheel/tyre. A typical
screw jack consists of a body made of cast iron (cast iron has good
compressive strength and damping property, hence, it is employed for
making body/bed for the majority of machines). A nut [material is gun
metal (GM)] is fitted at the top of body. Gun metal is bronze (an
alloy having 88% copper, 8–10% tin, and 2–4% zinc), which has good
tribological (low friction) compatibility with steels. A square threaded
spindle made of mild steel (low carbon steel: 0.05%-0.25% of C)
involves/interfaces the nut. In the head of spindle, a through hole is
made for inserting the lever (Tommy bar). Lever is used for turning the
threaded spindle. Far end of lever is knurled to provide a good grip for
holding purpose. A cap made of carbon steel is put on the head of the
spindle and is free to rotate about the axis of spindle and slip on head
surface. The cup is loosely held in position over spindle head by washer
screw. To achieve a good grip of the load on the cup, the upper face of
the cup is serrated at 4-6 places.

For information:

A lathe possess two centers between which a job is held for machining. These centers are carried by two head
stocks (please see image of a lathe machine using the internet for more clarity). These head stocks are called
fast head stock (also known as driving head stock) and loose headstock (also called as tailstock). Driving head
stock may carry a chuck, face flat, or center as per need. However, loose headstock can slide on the lathe bed
and can be clamped to it at any position to adjust/accommodate different lengths of jobs. Figure 1 shows the
loose headstock of a light duty lathe for understanding the components drawing provided in Fig.2 on the back
side of this page. Body (made of cast iron) receives the barrel (made of mild steel). The barrel bore is coned at
one end to carry the center (made of carbon steel) and on the other end it is provided with threads in which screw
rod (mild steel) or screw spindle interfaces. On the right hand end of the body the spindle bearing (made of cast
iron) is fitted against which the collar of spindle rests. Hand-wheel (made of cast iron) is keyed and secured at
the position by a hexagonal nut (made of mild steel) and washer (made of mild steel). The barrel has a keyway
(or feather way) cut in it. Feather key (made of mild steel) prevents the rotation of the barrel. Clamping lever
(mild steel) involving stud (made of mild steel) is used to prevent axial movement of center/barrel. Barrel slides
in the body along the axial direction for adjusting the length as per job.

A rotary gear pump is a positive displacement type pump. The function of a rotary gear pump is to supply
lubricating oil under pressure to the various parts of an engine for their intended functions. In an IC engine, the
gear pump (oil pump) is generally located inside the crankcase below the lubricating oil level. This pump
consists of two meshed gears with each other. One of the gears is driven and other one is driving. Figure 1
illustrates the key components of a rotary gear pump. The lubricating oil is transported from inlet to the outlet
side by entraining it in spaces between the gear teeth and the casing and carrying it round the gears from the
suction to the delivery side. The key components of rotary gear pumps are: 1. Mounting bracket (cast iron); 2.
Body (cast iron); 3. End cover (cast iron); 4. Gasket (rubber); 5. Shaft with gear (carbon steel); 6. Shaft with
gear (carbon steel); 7. Gland (cast iron); 8. Bush (Gun metal); and 9. Packing.

(A) Description of device


In a conventional lathe, different spindle speeds are obtained employing belt driven cone pulley and back gear arrangement. The step
cone pulley and the back gear are accommodated in the headstock of the lathe. This arrangement suffers from (i) slipping of the belt, (ii)
change of speed, requiring change of belt position and (iii) lack of positive drive. To overcome these draw backs and to provide a positive
drive, the belt drive is replaced by a gear drive in modern lathes. A lathe with speed gear box is known as geared lathe. Figure 1 shows
the photographic view of the assembled gears of a geared lathe.

Fig.1 Photographic view of assembled gears in a gearbox of lathe (This image is for developing the understanding on
gearbox. It is not related with the details provided in Fig.2.)
It may be noted that in the Fig.2, for the purpose of clarity of the drive mechanism, the shafts are shown as if they are one below the
other in the same plane, but it may not. The drive shaft “S2” is positioned in the head stock body of the lathe and is driven by an electric
motor through a belt drive, using a V-pulley. The headstock also contains an intermediate splined shaft “S3”, on which sliding gears are
mounted. Further, spindle “S4” is also positioned in the head stock on which work holding devices are attached. The spindle is mounted
on the taper roller bearings, which support the axial thrust as well as radial loads coming on the spindle. The drive shaft and
the intermediate shafts are mounted on the ball bearings. These bearings are protected by cover plates, which are held in position by the
round headed machine screws. A live center is mounted in the spindle by means of reduction sleeve. The spur gears A, B and H are
keyed on the drive shaft, whereas the gear “G” is an integral part of the shaft. A compound gear sleeve, consisting of gears “D” and “E”
is mounted on the intermediate splined shaft to which “C” and “F” gears are keyed. All the gears from “A” to “H” are of the same module
i.e. 2.5 mm. The compound gear “I” and “J” of module 3 mm are also mounted on the intermediate shaft. Compound gears “K” and “L”
of module 3 mm are fixed to the spindle. For obtaining different spindle speeds, the gear sleeve consisting of the gears C, D, E and “F”
is moved on the spline shaft by lever “X” and the compound gears “I” and “J” by the lever “Y”. The following gear engagement provides
8 different speeds for the spindle:
1. A-C-I-K 5. A-C-J-L
2. B-D-I-K 6. B-D-J-L
3. G-E-I-K 7. G-E-J-L
4. H-F-I-K 8. H-F-J-L

For providing drive to the feed gear box from the spindle, gear “M” of module 2 mm is rigidly fixed to the spindle.

(B) What to be done

(A) Description of device


A pedestal bearing (or Plummer block) is used for providing support to long shafts especially when the shaft
cannot be introduced in the bearing end-wise. It consists of a pedestal or base (made of cast iron), a cap (made
of cast iron) and bush (made of bronze) split into two halves and called ‘half bearings’. The split bush used in
the assembly facilitate easy assembly and periodical replacement of the worn-out bush. After placing the journal
on the lower half of the bush, kept in the base, the upper half of the bush is placed and the cap is then fixed to
the pedestal using two bolts (made of mild steel) as shown in Fig. 1. Flanges are provided at either end of the
bush to prevent its axial motion. The rotary motion of the bush is prevented by a snug provided at the
bottom of the lower bronze, fitting into a corresponding hole in the base.

Descriptions

Riveting is one of the commonly used method of producing rigid and permanent joints. Manufacture of boilers, storage
tanks etc. involve joining of steel sheets by riveting. Riveted joints are also used to fasten rolled steel sections in structural
works such as bridge and roof trusses. Welding is an effective method of making permanent joints between two or more
metal parts. Cast iron, steel and its alloys, brass and copper are the metals that may be welded easily. Production of leak
proof joints that can withstand high pressures and temperatures are made possible with advanced welding technology. For
this reason, welding is fast replacing casting and forging wherever possible. Compared to riveting, welding is cheaper,
stronger and simpler to execute at site with considerable freedom in design. Hence, it is widely used in s hip building and
structural fabrication in place of riveting
