GEAR ENGINEERING
(Machine Design) Time: 3 hours
Answer any FIVE questions All questions carry equal marks ***** 1. (a) Explain generation methods of cycloid and involute gear profiles. (b) What are causes for gear tooth failure? Discuss briefly on impact loads on gear tooth. 2. A cast steel pinion running at 900 rpm transmits a maximum power of 25 KW to a cast iron gear running at 144 rpm. Design a spun gear drive having standard 200 stub teeth of involute profile. Check the design for dynamic load and wear. A pair of helical gears are to transmit 15 KW. The teeth are 200 stub in the diametral plane and have a helix angle of 450. The pinion has an 80 mm pitch diameter and operates at 10000 rpm. The pitch diameters of the gear is 320 mm. If the pinion and gear are both made of the same material having safe static stress of 100Mpa, determine a suitable module and face width.

4. (a) Explain force acting on a Bevel gear. Derive the expressions for radial and axial forces. (b) What is equivalent no of teeth? 5. (a) Derive an expressions axial force, tangential forces and radial forces in terms of normal pressure (). (b) Explain the modification adopted in warm and warm wheel. 6. 7. Explain different surface failures in gears with neat sketches. The number of teeth in the gear shown in figure below are as follows TS = 18; TP = 24; TC = 12; TA = 72 P and C form a compound gear carried by the arm a and the annular gear A is held stationary. Determine the speed of the output at a. Also find the holding torque required on A if 5 KW is delivered to s at 800 rpm with an efficiency of 94%. In case of the annulus A rotates at 100 rpm in the same direction ass what will be the new speed of a. A
