  1. Design Workshop Mechanical Systems

  2. Introduction • Parthiv Shah • Graduate of University of Waterloo • Bachelor of Applied Science in Mech. Eng. • Joined 1241 in 2011 • Lead Design Mentor

  3. Objectives Types of Common Mechanisms Used in FRC Types of Motors Used in FRC Gears and Sprockets Example Problems

  4. Types of Mechanisms • Four Bar Linkages • Crank / Slider • Pulley Systems • Rack and Pinion

  5. Four Bar Linkages

  6. Crank Slider

  7. Pulleys

  8. Rack and Pinion

  9. Motors • Electrical Motors used in FRC • Properties of a Motor: • Stall Torque [N*m or oz*in] • Torque at which motor speed is 0 • Free Speed [rad/s or rpm] • Speed at which motor torque is 0 • Terminal voltage [V] • Voltage required by motor • Efficiency • Power Out / Power In = (T*ω) /(V*I)

  10. Motors

  11. Motors

  12. No Load Condition Maximum Power Maximum Efficiency Stall Condition

  13. Gears Driven Gear Pinion Pinion Gear –or “Driving Gear” Driven Gear Pitch – Number of Teeth Per Inch Pitch Diameter – Circle at which the two gears meet

  14. P=N/d • Where: • P= diametral pitch (teeth per inch) • d = pitch diameter (in) • N = number of teeth

  15. Types of Gears Spur Gears Helical Gears Planetary Gears Bevel Gears Worm Gears

  16. Gear Ratios • GR = N2/N1 = T2/T1 = ω1/ω2 • If N2>N1 Torque is increased, speed is decreased • If N2<N1 Torque is decreased, speed is increased • Gear Train: • GR = (N3/N2)(N4/N3)(N6/N5)

  17. Roller Chain Sprockets • Pitch – Distance between rollers • Pitch Diameter – Circle at which the roller chain sits on the sprocket D=p/(sin(180°/N) where: D=diameter, p=pitch, N = teeth Parthiv and Malavya Shah

  18. Calculating Center to Center Distances Between Sprockets: Where: C=center to center distance L=length of chain N1=# of teeth on driving sprocket N2=#of teeth on driven sprocket p=pitch OR Parthiv and Malavya Shah

  19. Torque Example Given: Tm = 2 N-m Larm = 1.5m M=1.5kg Solution: Force = Mass x Gravity = 1.5kg*(9.81N/kg) = 14.715N Torque = Force x Length of Arm = 14.715N x 1.5m = 22.0725 N-m ~ 22 N-m Gear Ratio: GR = Load Torque / Torque Motor = 22N-m / 2N-m = 10 • Determine Gear Ratio for a motor that has output torque of 2 N-m and is used to rotate an arm 1.5m long with a mass of 2kg at the end of it.

  20. Speed Example Given: n = 5000rpm Dwheel = 4in V=16ft/s Solution: V=n*π*D so Wheel Speed n = v/(D* π) = 16/((4/12)*3.14) = 15.27 rps x 60= 916.2 rpm Gear Ratio: GR = Motor Speed/ Wheel Speed = 5000rpm / 916.2 = 5.45 • Determine Gear Ratio for a motor that Rotates at 5000 rev/min to drive a 4 in wheel 16 ft/s
