Part B 5 *12 = 60 marks Answer any FIVE questions, choosing ONE question from each unit UNIT - I A bearing for an axial flow compressor is required to carry a radial load of 2.5 KN and thrust of 1.5 KN. The speed of the shaft is 1000 rpm and its diameter is 50 mm. The service condition imposes light shock and the bearing is required to work for 40 hrs per week for 5 years. Select suitable ball bearing for the above purpose and suggest the required tolerances on the shaft and on the housing. OR Design a chain drive to run a compressor from a 11 kW electric motor running at 970 rpm. The speed of compressor is 330 rpm. The compressor operates 16 hours / day. The center distance is about 500 mm. The tension in the chain may be adjusted by shifting the motor on rails UNIT II A differential band brake is to be used for a winch lifting a load of 45 kN through a rope wound around a barrel of 500 mm in diameter. The brake drum to be keyed to the same shaft is to be 600 mm in diameter and the angle of lap of the brake band over the drum is 2500 approximately. Determine the width and thickness of the band. Operating arms of the brake are 40 mm and 200 mm and the operating lever is 1.5 m long. OR The cutter of a broaching machine is pulled by square threaded screw of 55 mm

external diameter and 10 mm pitch. The operating nut takes the axial load of 400 N on a flat surface of 60 mm and 90 mm internal and external diameters respectively. If the coefficient of friction is 0.15 for all contact surfaces of the nut, determine the power required to rotate the operating nut when the cutting speed is 6 m/min. Also find the efficiency of the screw. 15 UNIT III A pair of straight teeth spur gears is to transmit 20 kW when the pinion rotates at 300 rpm. The velocity ratio is 1:3. The allowable static stresses for the pinion and gear materials are 120 MPa and 100MPa respectively. The pinion has 15 teeth and its face width is 14 times the module. Determine 1. module, 2. face width and 3. pitch circle diameters of both pinion and gear from the standpoint of view of strength only, with out taking into consideration of the effect of the dynamic loading. The tooth form factor y = 0.154 expressed in m/sec. 16 OR Determine the geometric dimensions of a Geneva disc for the following data Driving crank radius 50 mm & Number of slots - 6 UNIT IV Design a worm gear drive to transmit 22.5 kW at a worm speed of 1440 rpm. Velocity ratio is 24:1. An efficiency of atleast 85% is desired. The temperature rise should be restricted to 400C. 18 OR Design a bevel gear drive to transmit 7.35 KW at 1440 rpm for the following data. Gear ratio = 3, Life = 10000 hrs, Material for pinion and gear is C45 steel. UNIT V Draw the kinematic diagram and speed diagram of the gear box in a head stock of a lathe having 9 spindle speeds ranging from 31.5 rpm to 1050 rpm. Calculate the number of teeth on all gears if the minimum number of teeth is 25. Also calculate the % of deviation in speeds. 20 OR Determine the kinematic arrangement and ray diagram of a 12 speed gear box for a lathe. The minimum and maximum speeds are 100 and 1200 rpm. The drive is from an induction motor with 1440 rpm as rated speed.
