Hand Auger http://b2bimg.bridgat.com/files/handle_earth_auger.jpg
Hand Auger Types http://soils.usda.gov/technical/manual/images/fig4-10_large.jpg
Design of Hand Auger • Three Main Components • Threads Outside Shaft • Approximately Six Meters in Length • Typically Manufactured with Steel http://collections.infocollections.org/ukedu/collect/ukedu/index/assoc/h2380e/p018.gif
Components Chosen for Redesign • Material – from Cast or Alloy Steel to Carbon Steel • Auger Threads – increase width of threads and decrease pitch
Design Equations • F=ma=(80kg)(9.82m/s^2)=784.8 N • τ=rFsin(θ)=((3m)(785N)(1))=2355 Nm (handle) • τ=rFsin(θ)=((6m)(785N)(1))=4710 Nm (threads)
