  4. Building Robot Drive Trains • Building Robot Drive Trains is the first volume in the new "Robot DNA" series by McGraw-Hill/TAB Electronics. • It is just what robotics hobbyists need to build an effective drive train using inexpensive, off-the-shelf parts. • No heavy-duty “tech speak” • Focuses on the actual concepts and applications necessary to build – and understand -- the critical force-conveying systems. • If you want a clear, straightforward guide to the nuts-and-bolts of drive trains, this is the way to go.

  5. Building Robot Drive Trains • Chapters include: • The Basics of Robot Locomotion * • Motor Types: An Overview * • Using DC Motors * • Using RC Servo Motors * • Using Stepper Motors * • Motor Mounting * • Basic Motor Control * • Advanced Motor Control * • Electronics Interfacing * • Wheels and Treads * • Locomotion for Multipods * • Glossary of Terms, Tables, Formulas * 75 illustrations

  6. Pulleys • Pulley are wheels and axles with a groove around the outside • A pulley needs a rope, chain or belt around the groove to make it do work

  7. Pulley Examples • Pulley reverses the direction of force • Two or more pulleys connected together permit a heavy load to be lifted with less force http://www.sciencemuseum.org.uk/on-line/leonardo/InventorsToolbox.asp

  8. Lifting Pulleys • Lifting Pulleys in transmission systems are: • Single pulley • Moveable pulley • Block and Tackle

  9. Single Pulleys

  10. Fixed (single) pulley • Fixed Pulley: • Wheel attached to surface • Changes the direction of the applied force • NO mechanical advantage – same amount of force is required

  11. Why no MA in a Single Pulley? • The resistance arm and the effort arm are both the radius of the pulley. • Since they are equal, there is no mechanical advantage.

  12. 100 lbs 100 lbs 100 ft 100 lbs 100 lbs Single Pulley • Provides change of motion, but no mechanical advantage

  13. Movable pulley

  14. Movable pulley • Movable Pulley: • Pulley moves along the rope • Wheel supports the load • Effort is in the same direction as movement • Reduces the forces needed to move an object

  15. MA in a Moveable pulley • A moveable pulley is a second-class pulley. • The effort arm is the diameter and the resistance arm is the radius. • MA = dE ÷ dR • MA = 2 ÷ 1 = 2 Mechanical Advantage = 2

  16. 50 lbs 50 lbs 50 lbs 50 lbs 100 lbs 100 lbs Another Moveable pulley • Provides change of direction and a mechanicaladvantage of 1:2 (at the expense of having to increase the amount of line to pull) These kinds of diagrams are easier to analyze

  17. In the second picture, the weight is held by two ropes instead of one. That means the weight is split equally between the two ropes, so each one holds only half the weight. http://www.swe.org/iac/LP/pulley_03.html

  18. COMBINED PULLEY • Combined (double) Pulley: • Has at least two wheels • The more complex the pulley, the more the effort needed to move the object decreases

  19. COMBINED PULLEY • The effort needed to lift the load is less than half the weight of the load. • The main disadvantage is it travels a very long distance.

  20. Mechanical Advantage • Mechanical Advantage is the same as the number of ropes supporting the object MA=2 MA=2 MA=4

  21. How about these? Calculate MA for these and similar

  22. Pulley Calculations

  23. Pulleys as used in robots • A pulley is basically a wheel with a groove in the circumference of the wheel, with a belt or cable being fed around the groove. • Pulleys create a mechanical advantage by connecting a small input drive pulley to a larger follower with a belt. Driver (Effort) Follower (Resistance)

  24. Mechanical Advantage of a Pulley Drive Train MA = FOLLOWER ÷ DRIVER • The Pulley Drive Train above produces an MA of 4. This means 10 lbs of input torque will create 40 lbs output, but the driver must rotate 4 times to rotate output 1 time. Speed is reduced by 4. Driver 1mm Follower 4mm

  25. Mechanical Advantage MA = FOLLOWER ÷ DRIVER Driver 3mm Follower 9mm Driver 2mm Follower 14mm

  26. Increasing Speed • Increase the speed of the output by using a larger driver gear and a smaller follower gear. Speed increases andpower decreases. Driver 4mm Follower 1mm

  27. Compound Drive Pulley Trains • A Compound Drive Pulley Train has pairs of pulleys working in combination, • with the follower of one pulley sharing the same axle as the driver of the next sequential pulley train.

  28. Example 1: Compound Drive Pulley Trains MA = (FOLLOWER 1 * FOLLOWER 2) ÷ (DRIVER 1 & DRIVER 2) • Driver 1 = 2mm Follower 1 = 8mm • Driver 2 = 3mm Follower 2 = 9mm Calculate MA (8*9)/(2*3) = 72/6 = 12)

  29. Example 2: Compound Drive Pulley Trains MA = (FOLLOWER 1 X FOLLOWER 2) ÷ (DRIVER 1 x DRIVER 2) • Driver 1 = 3mm Follower 1 = 9mm • Driver 2 = 2mm Follower 2 = 14mm Calculate MA

  30. Problem 2. To solve at home • Sketch the following two pulley trains: • A: Simple pulley train with belt wrapped so both pulleys rotate in same direction. • B. Simple pulley train with belt wrapped so both pulleys rotate in opposite direction.

  31. Solution to Problem 2 • A: Simple pulley train with belt wrapped so both pulleys rotate in same direction.

  32. Solution to Problem 2 • B. Simple pulley train with belt wrapped so both pulleys rotate in opposite direction.

  33. Block and Tackle

  34. 25 lbs 25 lbs 25 lbs 25 lbs 25 lbs 100 lbs 100 lbs Block and Tackle • Multiple pulleys providing a greater mechanical advantage. • MA is determined by the number of pulleys. 100/4 = 25

  35. Block and Tackle Gun Tackle Luff Tackle

  36. Block and Tackle

  37. Block and Tackle: Luff-upon-Luff Tacke 1200/100 = 12

  38. Pulleys are used to gain mechanical advantage trading the amount of rope you have to pull to lift an object forhow heavy the object can be.

  39. The more lines of support (ropes) a pulley has, the more mechanical advantage it has! http://www.swe.org/iac/LP/pulley_03.html

  40. Engagement Pulleys in history Not in class For home reading

  41. Engagement Ancient Pulleys Archimedes, who was kinsman and a friend of King Hieron of Syracuse, wrote to him that with any given force it was possible to move any given weight, and emboldened, as we were told, by the strength of his demonstration, he declared that, if there were another world, and he could go to it, he could move this. Hieron was astonished, and begged him to put his proposition into execution, and show him some great weight moved by a slight force. Archimedes therefore fixed upon a three-master merchantman of the royal fleet, which had been dragged ashore by the great labors of many men, and after putting on board many passengers and the customary freight, he seated himself at a distance from her, and without any great effort, but quietly setting in motion with his hand a system of compound pulleys, drew her towards him smoothly and evenly, as though she were gliding through the water. - Plutarch Instructor: Read this in your best theatrical voice  What else did Archimedes study?

  42. Engagement Archimedes Advantage • Have two volunteers attempt to hold two metal rods apart while the instructor attempts to force them together with a “pulley system.” • Discuss the Mechanical Advantage offered by pulleys Teacher 1 Teacher 2 Instructor Ask volunteers to keep the bars parallel and to hold the ends not the middle

  43. Questions and Problems

  44. Questions and Problems (1) Problem 1. Calculate the mechanical advantage of the compound pulley drive train model. • Show your work. • Small Pulley Diameter = 25mm • Large Pulley Diameter = 100mm

  45. Elaboration Questions and Problems (2) • Problem 2. • Design, Create, and Verify a pulley system with a mechanical advantage of: • 4 • 5 • 6 • Be sure to include drawings of your systems and how you verified the MA of the systems • For block and tackle systems, what effect most greatly reduces the MA?

  46. Evaluation Questions and Problems (3) • Problem 3. • The girl in the illustration is trying to lift herself and the swing using the rope. • What would you predict would happen if she pulled down on the rope? • If she weighs 90 pounds and the swing weighs ten pounds, how much force does she need to apply?

  47. Questions and Problems (4) • Problem 4. Propose a humanoid robot arm that will have all motors inside robot body and will use pulleys to transmit motions to shoulder, elbow and hand. Calculate all mechanical advantages assuming torques of some inexpensive servos that you can purchase on internet. • Problem 5. Propose a humanoid robot leg that will have all motors inside robot body and will use pulleys to transmit motions to shoulder, elbow and foot. This robot is a puppet hanging in the air and is not supposed to really walk. • Problem 6. Propose a humanoid robot head that will have all motors inside robot body and will use pulleys to transmit motions to eyes, mouth and eyebrows.

  48. Questions and Problems (5) Evaluation Problem 7 • We should assume that it is an extensionless, massless rope, a massless pulley that does not hinder its rotation, and a rigid support. • We should imagine a box around the girl and the swing with only the rope extending out from the box to isolate the forces acting on the objects inside the box from the external forces. • The rope supports the box once, goes through the pulley and supports the box again. • The tension of the rope going upwards is T on each side, so the total tension is 2T. • The combined force from the tension in the rope must be greater than the combined weight of the girl and the chair for the chair to be lifted. • For a 90 pound girl and 10 pound chair, she must use a force of 50 pounds of more to be able to lift herself off the ground.

  49. Evaluation Questions and Problems (6) Problem 8 • The man in the illustration below is trying to lift himself and the block on which he is standing off the ground. • Is this possible? • Do all calculations. hint • This movable pulley allows the man to pull upwards and the block on which he stands will rise with him on top. • He must apply a force equal to his weight and the weight of the block because there is only 1 supporting rope outside the system. • There is a mechanical advantage of 1. • Yes, it can be done.

  50. Evaluation Questions and Problems (7) Problem 9 • A long rope passes over a single pulley and has bananas on one end and a monkey on the other. • If the monkey and the bananas have the same mass, can the monkey ever reach the bananas if he climbs the rope? • Assume that the rope is massless, there is no friction, and the rope is limitless.
