PERSONAL ENGINEERING ACTIVITY

As a mechanical engineer, before undertaking any task I checked the feasibility of the
project. In this project, my role is as team members. This report provides an insight into
the design and fabrication of a QUICK LIFTING JACK.

I wanted to know more details of the project before commencing; hence, I researched
the topic thoroughly by referring to journals and articles online. Additionally, I obtained
more information by taking references about the topic.

 ABSTRACT

This project work titled “FABRICATION OF QUICK LIFTING JACK WITH GEAR

ARRANGEMENT” has been conceived having studied the difficulty in lifting the

any type of light vehicles. Our survey in the regard in several automobile garages,

revealed the facts that mostly some difficult methods were adopted in lifting the

vehicles for reconditioning. Now the project has mainly concentrated on this difficulty,

and hence a suitable device has been designed. Such that the vehicle can be lifted

from the floor land without application of any impact force. The fabrication part of it

has been considered with almost case for its simplicity and economy, such that this can

be accommodated as one of the essential tools on automobile garages.

INTRODUCTION

This device the quick lifting jack with gear arrangement for automobile garages has
been developed to later the needs of small and medium automobile garages, who are
normally man powered with very minimum of skilled labors. In most of the garages
the vehicles are lifted by using screw jack. This needs high man power and skilled
labors. In order to avoid all such disadvantages. This, motorized hydraulic jack has
been designed in such a way that it can be used to lift the vehicle very smoothly
without any impact force. The operation is made be simple that

13 | P a g e
even an unskilled labor can handled, by just demonstrating the working of the motorized
hydraulic jack once.

LITERATUE REVIEW

15 | P a g e
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is a vertical sectional elevation of the angles to
Fig. 1.

16 | P a g e
In the main, the two" constructions are substantially alike, but a material difference
appears particularly in connection withtlie means for engaging the gears and holding the
same as against a reverse movement of the handle or lever and also for holding the
screw in the standard except when it is purposely lifted up or out, as will presently
appear.

In detail, the parts comprise a standard A Y which has longitudinal channels or grooves
'2 inside, and a screw B with a pin a through its lower end having its ends engaged in
said grooves and serving to guide the screw on 'straight lines vertically but preventing
end rotation in the standard, as formerly. There are also two miter gears C and D, the
gear C being internally threaded and mounted upon the screw B, and the said screw
and gear adapted to be raised within the standard to any desired elevation or to be
lifted bodily off and out if desired. Ordinarily, in use, when the ,jack is brought to a
vehicle to apply it to the axle, a quick' adjustment of the parts is made by lifting the
screw with gear C bodily up to about the elevation wanted and the gear is then run down
and seated in operating position on the standard in mesh with the gear D. This
affords a quick and easy adjustment to an axle rather than awaiting the slow method of
jacking up the screw by or through the lever H. Gear G rests directly upon the top of the
standard, which serves as a bearing therefore, and the gear D is supported upon. a short
spindle or shaft E, shown as removably secured into the upper elevation at right other
important function. End of the standard and having the handle H rotatably mounted

17 | P a g e
the reon outside of the pawl and ratchet teeth and the jack is
.raised or lowered according as the pawl is set to work at one end or the other. As to
these features, it need only' be said that they are acknowledged to be present in my
patent above referred .to, but a present description thereof is' deemed necessary in
order that the associated novelty in this case may be understood.

In the said patent means are provided for frictionally locking the gears and holding
them in any position to which they may be hold, as for example, when the jack is
being raised. Then the handle is raised as far as may be convenient and depressed to do
the lifting. However, if the jack be without a load, the tendency is for the gears to work
too easy and they will run back with the direction of the' handle and no real progress is
made in jacking up the screw. To prevent this result I employed a split ring or spring L
in my said patent, which was mounted on shaft E and. bore against the hub of gear D
and served the purpose of holding said gear 1 firmly enough to prevent backward
rotation when the lever was making its idle or reverse stroke,-but I found that I could
perform this function as well by an arrangement of spring which would enable it to
perform still an To this end I have provided the jack with a substantially flat spring L
which has its lower end affixed to the standard A at a on the opposite side from
gear D and its 'free end' projecting upward and reversely turned with something turned
by the lever pending the moment when the lever is reversed to get another of
a shoulder or tooth shaped

18 | P a g e
projection 72 formed by bending the said spring rather sharply at said point and
adapting the said bent portion 1) to bear against the hub of gear C with . Sufficient
tension or pressure to frictionally hold the said gear. and prevent backward rotation
when the handle is making its idle stroke in order to get a grip. This construction
and arrangement of the spring serves identically the same purpose as the spring L in the-
patent aforesaid, but has the further advantage and value of holding the gear C u on the
'standard A when other- Wise it woul fall out.

It has already been observed that the screw and gear 0 can be bodily withdrawn from
the standard, and which was the case also in the above patent, but I have found that
entire freedom in this respect is not desirable and that it were better to have a temporary
connection so that ordinarily the parts will be held together, but can be separated at will.

To this end, the hub of gear C is provided with an annular shoulder or groove 9 which
produces a shoulder, and in or upon which the tooth like projection b of spring L
engages. and serves to lock the said gear with the standard temporarily as against its
being drawn OE, and a ard 9 corners the spring in said groove.

4 or rather hook shaped extreme it y of the spring with the finger the parts may be
readily disengaged when it is desired to withdraw the gear and screw. Thus the said
spring performs two important functions by reason of up by engaging the curve
seas-

19 | P a g e
7e this arrangement, and a material improvement of the jack is obtained.

What I claim is: v In a lifting jack, a standard and a lift screw mounted thereon and
adapted to be bodily raised in respect thereto, .a nut member for said screw adapted to
rest upon said standard and to be lifted apart there for quick adjustment of the nut
member upon said screw, means on said standard separably engaged with said nut
member to cerate the same in a given direction, and a friction device form nut member
to prevent back rotation thereof upon idle movements of said operating means, said
device and nut member having self-separable 'engaging portions to permit-the screw to
be lifted by one hand while adjustment of the nut member may be had by the other
hand. In testimony whereof I a flinty signature in presence of two witnesses

GEARS

Bevel gears are gears where the axes of the two shafts intersect and the tooth-bearing
faces of the gears themselves are conically shaped. Bevel gears are most often mounted
on shafts that are 90 degrees apart, but can be designed to work at other angles
as well. The pitch surface of bevel gears is a cone.

23 | P a g e
Two important concepts in gearing are pitch surface and pitch angle. The pitch surface
of a gear is the imaginary toothless surface that you would have by averaging out
the peaks and valleys of the individual teeth. The pitch surface of an ordinary gear is the
shape of a cylinder. The pitch angle of a gear is the angle between the face of the pitch
surface and the axis.

The most familiar kinds of bevel gears have pitch angles of less than 90 degrees and
therefore are cone-shaped. This type of bevel gear is called external because the
gear teeth point outward. The pitch surfaces of meshed external bevel gears are coaxial
with the gear shafts; the apexes of the two surfaces are at the point of intersection of the
shaft axes.

Bevel gears that have pitch angles of greater than ninety degrees have teeth that point
inward and are called internal bevel gears.

Bevel gears that have pitch angles of exactly 90 degrees have teeth that point outward
parallel with the axis and resemble the points on a crown. That's why this type of bevel
gear is called a crown gear.

Bearing:

A bearing is machine element which supports another moving machine element. The
moving machine element

28 | P a g e
29 | P a g e
is known as journal. Bearing permits a relative motion between the contact surfaces of
the members, while carrying the load. A certain amount of power is wasted in
overcoming frictional resistance. In order to reduce frictional resistance and wear and to
carry away the heat generated, lubricant may be provided. The lubricant used is usually
a mineral oil refined from petroleum. The bearing block is used to hold the bearings.
It is made up of cast iron. All the bearings are fitted on the machine frame. A bearing
is machine element which supports another moving machine element.

Bolt:

30 | P a g e
A screw, or bolt, is a type of fastener, typically made of metal, and characterized by a
helical ridge, known as a male thread (external thread) or just thread, wrapped around a
cylinder. Some screw threads are designed to mate with a complementary thread, known
as a female thread (internal thread), often in the form of a nut or an object that has the
internal thread formed into it. Other screw threads are designed to cut a helical groove
in a softer material as the screw is inserted. The most common uses of screws are to
hold objects together and to position objects.

A screw will almost always have a head on one end which contains a specially formed
shape that allows it to be turned, or driven, with a tool. Common tools for driving
screws include screwdrivers and wrenches. The head is usually larger than the body
of the screw, which keeps the screw from being driven deeper than the length of the
screw and to provide a bearing surface. There are exceptions; for instance, carriage
bolts have a domed head that is not designed to be driven; set screws often have a head
smaller than the outer diameter of the screw; J-bolts have a J-shaped head which is
not designed to be driven, but rather is usually sunk into concrete

31 | P a g e
allowing it to be used as an anchor bolt. The cylindrical portion of the screw from the
underside of the head to the tip is known as the shank; it may be fully threaded or
partially threaded.[1] The distance between each thread is called the "pitch".

The majority of screws are tightened by clockwise rotation, which is termed a right-
hand thread; a common mnemonic device for remembering this when working with
screws or bolts is "righty-tighty, lefty-loosey." Screws with left-hand threads are used in
exceptional cases. For example, when the screw will be subject to counterclockwise
torque (which would work to undo a right-hand thread), a left-hand-threaded screw
would be an appropriate choice. The left side pedal of a bicycle has a left-hand thread.

More generally, screw may mean any helical device, such as a clamp, a micrometer,
a ship's propeller or an Archimedes' screw water pump.

PIPE CUTTING:

Pipe cutting, or pipe profiling, is a mechanized industrial process that removes material
from pipe or tube to create a desired profile. Typical profiles include straight cuts,
mitres, saddles and midsection holes.

WELDING:-

Welding is a fabrication or sculptural process that joins materials, usually metals or

thermoplastics, by causing fusion, which is distinct from lower temperature metal-
joining techniques such as brazing and soldering, which do not melt the base
metal. In addition to melting the base metal, a filler material is often added to the
joint to form a pool of molten material (the weld pool) that cools to form a joint that can
be as strong, or even stronger, than the base material. Pressure may also be used in
conjunction with heat, or by itself, to produce a weld.
Although less common, there are also solid state welding processes such as friction
welding or shielded active gas welding in which metal does not melt.
Some of the best known welding methods include:

 Shielded metal arc welding (SMAW) - also known as "stick welding or electric
welding", uses an electrode that has flux around it to protect the weld
puddle. The electrode holder holds the electrode as it slowly melts away. Slag
protects the weld puddle from atmospheric contamination.

34 | P a g e
 Gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW) - also known as TIG (tungsten, inert gas),
uses a non-consumable tungsten electrode to produce the weld. The weld area
is protected from atmospheric contamination by an inert shielding gas such as
argon or helium.

 Gas metal arc welding (GMAW) - commonly termed MIG (metal, inert gas),
uses a wire feeding gun that feeds wire at an adjustable speed and flows an
argon-based shielding gas or a mix of argon and carbon dioxide (CO2) over the
weld puddle to protect it from atmospheric contamination.

 Flux-cored arc welding (FCAW) - almost identical to MIG welding except it uses
a special tubular wire filled with flux; it can be used with or without shielding
gas, depending on the filler.

 Submerged arc welding (SAW) - uses an automatically fed consumable

electrode and a blanket of granular fusible flux. The molten weld and the arc
zone are protected from atmospheric contamination by being "submerged" under
the flux blanket.

 Electroslag welding (ESW) - a highly productive, single pass welding process

for thicker materials

35 | P a g e
 between 1 inch (25 mm) and 12 inches (300 mm) in a vertical or close to
vertical position.
Many different energy sources can be used for welding, including a gas flame, an
electric arc, a laser, an electron beam, friction, and ultrasound. While often an industrial
process, welding may be performed in many different environments, including in open
air, under water, and in outer space. Welding is a hazardous undertaking and
precautions are required to avoid burns, electric shock, vision damage, inhalation of
poisonous gases and fumes, and exposure to intense ultraviolet radiation.
Until the end of the 19th century, the only welding process was forge welding, which
blacksmiths had used for centuries to join iron and steel by heating and hammering.
Arc welding and oxyfuel welding were among the first processes to develop late in the
century, and electric resistance welding followed soon after. Welding technology
advanced quickly during the early 20th century as the world wars drove the demand
for reliable and inexpensive joining methods. Following the wars, several modern
welding techniques were developed, including manual methods like SMAW, now one
of the most popular welding methods, as well as semi-automatic

36 | P a g e
and automatic processes such as GMAW, SAW, FCAW and ESW. Developments
continued with the invention of laser beam welding, electron beam welding,
magnetic pulse welding (MPW), and friction stir welding in the latter half of the
century. Today, the science continues to advance. Robot welding is commonplace in
industrial settings, and researchers continue to develop new welding methods and
gain greater understanding of weld quality.

WORKING PRINCIPLE

The quick lift jack is a device used for lifting heavy loads by the application of much
smaller force. The working principle of a quick lift jack may be explained with the help
of Fig. Consider a two bevel gears arrangement.

37 | P a g e
 Quick lift jacks and much other technological advancement such as
automobile brakes and dental chairs work. Handle is used to rotates the bevel gear
arrangements. Jack arrangement i.e. lifting rod will be fixed to bevel gear. Clockwise
rotation of handle, jack will rotates upward motion and anti clockwise rotation of
handle, jack will rotates downward motion.
