(A)Classification of kinematic link (a)Classification based on relative motion between links. 1)Sliding pair.

In a sliding pair minimum number of degree of freedom is only one. 2)Turning pair. In a turning pair also degree of freedom is one.when two links are connected such that one link revolves around another link it forms a turning pair. 3)Cylindrical pair. In a cylindrical pair degree of freedom is two.If one link turns and slides along another link it forms a cylindrical pair. 4)Rolling pair. In a rolling pair degree of freedom is two.The object moves both linearly and angularly. 5)Spherical pair. In a spherical pair degree of freedom is three.It can both move left and right,up and down,and rotate along the same point. (b)Based on nature of contact. 1)Lower pair. If contact between two links is surface contact also having degree of freedom one, then the pair is known as lower pair. Example: Sliding pair. 2)Higher pair. If contact between two links is either point contact or line contact then the pair is known as higher pair. Example: Point contact-Rolling pair. Line contact-Cylindrical pair. 3)Mechanical pair. (a)Open pair. In this pair everything is open to the admosphere. (b)Closed pair. In this pair everything is closed from the admosphere. (B)Indexing mechanism. This type of mechanism is used in automatic lathe’ s etc. Assume one revolution of the driver.In 360 degrees,270 degrees makes locking of follower. Remaining 90 degrees is used to make rotation of the follower. 2)Snap action mechanism. It is used in calling bells, bicycle bells etc. 3)Motion adjustment mechanism. The mechanism used to adjust or modify any one of the links in a mechanism is known as motion adjustment mechanism. Differential screw used in bench vice, pipe

wrench, Lathe chuck and screw jack are some of the examples of motion adjustment mechanism. 4)Scott Russel mechanism. This is one of the mechanism to produce straight line motion mechanism.The mechanism in which the straight line is copied from a existing straight line constrain is known as Scott Russel mechanism. 2) In a crank and slotted lever quick return motion mechanism,the length of the fixed link is 300mm and that of the crank is 150mm.Determine the maximum angle the slotted lever will make the fixed link.Also determine the ratio of the time of cutting and return stroke.If the length of slotted bar is 700mm, What would be the length of the stroke,assuming that the line of stroke passes through the positions of the free end of the slotted lever? Given data: AB=300mm=0.3m AE=150mm=0.15m BP1=700mm=0.7m Inclination of the slotted bar with fixed link: Let•ABE=inclination of the slotted bar with the vertical axis. sin•ABE=sin(900-ß/2) =AE/AB =0.15/0.3=0.5 • ABE=(90-ß/2) =300 Time ratio of cutting stroke to the return stroke: We know that, (900-ß/2)=30 ß=1200 Time for cutting stroke= Time for return stroke=ß =3600-1200 1200 Answer=2 Length of stroke=p1p2 =2(BP1)sin(900-ß/2) =2*0.7sin(900-600) L=450mm. 3) Explain the different types of quick return motion mechanism? Quick return motion are of two types.They are, 1)Crank and slotted lever quick return motion mechanism. 2)Whitworth quick return motion mechanism

Crank and slotted lever quick return motion mechanism. In this mechanism,the link AC forming the turning pair is fixed.The driving crank CB revolves with uniform angular speed about the fixed center C.A sliding block attached to the crank pin at B slides along the slotted bar AP and thus causes AP to oscillate about the pivorted point A.A short link PR transmits the motion from AP to ram which carries the tool and reciprocates along the line of stroke R1R2.In the extreme positions,AP1 and AP2 are tangential to the circle and the cutting tool is at the end of the stroke.The forward or cutting stroke occurs when the crank rotates from the position CB1 to CB2 in the clockwise direction.The return stroke occurs when the crank rotates from the position CB2 to CB1 in the clockwise direction.Since the crank has uniform angular speed,therefore Time of cutting stroke Time of return stroke =

Since the tool travels a distance of R1R2 during cutting and return ,therefore length of stroke =R1R2=P1P2=2AP

Whitworth quick return motion mechanism. In this mechanism,the link CD forming the turning pair is fixed.The driving crank CA rotates at a uniform angular speed.The slider attached to the crank pin at A slides along the slotted bar PA which oscillates at a pivoted point D.The connecting rod PR carries the ram at R to which a cutting tool is fixed.The motion of the tool is constrained along the line RD produced along a line passing through D and perpendicular to CD.When the driving crank CA moves from the position CA1 to CA2 through an angle in the clockwise direction,the tool moves from left to right through a distance 2PD.Now when the driving crank moves from the position CA1 to CA2 through an angle in the clockwise direction,the tool moves back from right to left hand end.Since CA rotates at uniform angular velocity therefore time taken for return stroke is less than time taken for cutting stroke.then ratio between time taken for cutting and return stroke is, Time of cutting stroke Time of return stroke Explain 1)Elliptical trammels 2)Skotch yoke mechanism 3)Offset mechanism 4)Ratchet mechanism 5)Escapement mechanism? 1)Elliptical trammels. It is one of the inversion of double slider crank chain mechanism.It is an instrument used to draw ellipse.This inversion is obtained by fixing the slotted bar.Link 4 has two straight grooves cut in it, at right angle to each other.the link 1 and 3,are known as sliders and forms sliding pair with link4.the link AB is a bar which forms turning pair with link 1 and 3.When the links 1 and 3 slide along their respective grooves,such as P traces out a ellipse on the surface of link 4.

This is the equation of a circle of radius AP. 4) Explain (i) the different types of joints

Hence total number of binary joints = 3 + 4 = 7

Based on Kline’ s Equation

L = 2/3 (J+2)

Number of ternary joints = A + B + E + F

Equivalent binary joints = 8

Number of quaternary joints = D, G

Equivalent binary joints = 6,

Total Number of Equivalent binary joints

J = 15

Based on Kline’ s equation

L = 2/3 (I+2)

Rope drive: Utility. The rope drives are widely used when large power is to be transmitted continuously from one pulley to another over a considerable distance. One advantage of rope drives is that a number of separate driver may be from the driving pulley. 8. Belt drive: Utility.

16 MARKS :- 1) Explain limiting of friction.Draw a neat sketch of a body over the surface with all the forces acting on it.

Consider a body of weight W is lying on a rough horizontal body B as shown in

figure. In this position(a), body A is in equilibrium under the action of its own weight W, and the normal reaction RN of B on A. now small force is applied to the body, it does not move because of the frictional force which prevent the motion. This shows applied force P1 is exactly balanced by the force of friction F1.

Now increase the applied force to P2 as shown in fig (1) it is still found to be in equilibrium. This means that the force of friction has also increased to a value of F2 = P2. Thus every time the efforts increased the force of friction is also increases, so as to become exactly equal to the applied force. There is however, a limit beyond which the force of friction cannot increase as shown in fig (d). After this, any increase in the applied effort will not lead to any further increase in the force of friction as shown in fig (e), thus the body A begins to move in the direction of the applied force. This maximum value of frictional force, which comes into play, when a body just begins to slide over the surface of the other body, is known as limiting force of friction or simply limiting friction. It may be noted that when the applied force is less than the limiting friction, the body remains at rest, and the friction into play is called static friction. 2. Explain with neat sketch the working of centrifugal clutch. Deduce the expression for the total torque transmitted.

Draw the required figure. Centrifugal clutch works on the principle of centrifugal force. The driving shaft carries the shoes and springs. While the drivers shaft is connected to the pulley. Shoes are mounted radially and the springs keep them away from inner rim of the pulley. When the centrifugal force is less than the spring force, brake lining cannot make any contact with the pulley rims. Let

n = no: of shoes. m = mass of each shoe. R = inside radius of the pulley rim. N = speed of pulley. w = angular speed of pulley. w1 = angular speed at which the begins. Centrifugal force on each shoe Fc = mw²r Spring force exerted by each spring Fs = mw1²r Net force on the shoe =Fc-Fs

The working principle of screw jack is similar to that of an inclined plane. Screw jack with square threads. Draw a figure of screw jack with its spindle having square threads. The load to be raised or lowered is placed on the square threaded rod. It is rotated by the application of an effort at the end of the Tommy bar (lever).
