PROCEDURE:

1. DRAW THE DISPLACEMENT DIAGRAM

DRAW THE DIAGRAM WITH THE SCALE
PROVIDED
2. DRAW EACH SEGMENT OF THE MOTION
SEGMENT 1: RISE TO LIFT OF 4mm IN 60°
DIVIDE SEGMENT 1 INTO 6 EQUAL DIVISIONS. INLINE FLAT-FACE FOLLOWER DISPLACEMENT DIAGRAM
DRAW STRAIGHT LINE FROM INITIAL TO FINAL
POINT OF THE SEGMENT 1 TO CONSTRUCT THE
CONSTANT VELOCITY RISE. THEN LABEL POINTS
OF INTERSECTION BY "a" TO "g".
g g
SEGMENT 2: DWELL IN 30°
DRAW STRAIGHT HORIZONTAL LINE FROM f h
LAST POSITION TO THE FINAL POINT OF THE e i
SEGMENT. SAME LABEL THE INTERSECTION "g"
TO ENDPOINT. d j
40mm
SEGMENT 3: FALL OF 4mm IN 60° c k
DIVIDE SEGMENT 1 INTO 6 EQUAL DIVISIONS. d c
e
DRAW STRAIGHT LINE FROM INITIAL TO FINAL b b l
f
POINT OF THE SEGMENT TO CONSTRUCT THE a m m
CONSTANT VELOCITY RISE. THEN LABEL POINTS g a
OF INTERSECTION BY "g" TO "m".
SEGMENT 4: DWELL IN 210° (TO COMPLETE 1REV)
DRAW STRAIGHT HORIZONTAL LINE FROM 60° 30° 60° 210°
LAST POSITION "m" TO THE FINAL POINT OF THE OUTSTROKE DWELL RETURN DWELL
SEGMENT. LABEL THE LAST POINT "m". STROKE

3. PREPARE THE BASE CIRCLE OF THE CAM.

DRAW THE BASE CIRCLE WITH A RADIUS OF SCALE OF THE DISPLACEMENT DIAGRAM :
50mm NEAR TO THE DIAGRAM. DIVIDE THE CAM ANGLE: 10mm = 30°
CIRCLE ACCORDING TO THE DIVISIONS IN THE FOLLOWER DISPLACEMENT: 1cm = 1cm
DISPLACEMENT DIAGRAM. DRAW THE GUIDING DIMENSION OF DISPLACEMENT DIAGRAM:
LINES FOR EACH ANGULAR DIVISION. g STROKE, H = 40mm
1 rev = 360/30 =12 cm
4. TRANSLATE THE DISPLACEMENT INTO THE
CAM PROFILE.
a. DRAW THE FLAT-FACE FOLLOWER h
PARALLEL TO THE Y-AXIS OF DISPLACEMENT
DIAGRAM.
i
b. DRAW VERTICAL LINE PASSING THROUGH
IT AND THE CENTER OF CAM CENTER.
c. PROJECT EACH POINT OF THE j
DISPLACEMENT TO THE VERTICAL LINE AND k
EXTEND IT USING ARCS CONCENTRIC TO THE l m
BASE CIRCLE . BASE CIRCLE: R50mm
d. TRANSLATE EACH POINT IN THE VERTICAL CAM PROFILE
LINE TO THE CORRESPONDING ANGULAR
DIVISION MADE IN THE BASE CIRCLE.
e. LABEL EACH POINT WITH THE LABELS USED
IN THE DISPLACEMENT DIAGRAM

5. TRACE THE CAM PROFILE

DRAW EXTENDED LINES FOR EACH POINT (A TO
M) REPRESENTING THE FLAT-FACE. DRAW THE
CAM PROFILE TRACING THE INTERSECTING
POINTS OF THE EXTENDED LINES

PROBLEM: A CAM IS TO GIVE THE FOLLOWING MOTION TO A FLAT-FACED FOLLOWER: NAME: PLATE 3:
ANDREZA, LEMUEL V. INLINE FLAT-FACE FOLLOWER WITH
1. OUTSTROKE DURING 60° OF CAM ROTATION 3. RETURN STROKE DURING NEXT 60° OF CAM ROTATION
CONSTANT VELOCITY
2. DWELL FOR THE NEXT 30° OF CAM ROTATION 4. DWELL FOR THE REMAINING 210° OF CAM ROTATION
PROFESSOR: DATE SUBMITTED:
THE STROKE OF THE FOLLOWER IS 40 MM AND THE MINIMUM RADIUS OF THE CAM IS 50 MM. THE FOLLOWER MOVES WITH UNIFORM
ENGR. RODELIO PADRIQUE APRIL 21, 2021
VELOCITY DURING BOTH THE OUTSTROKE AND RETURN STROKES.
