Problem 1(50 points). An uncrowned straight-bevel pinion has 30 teeth, a diametral pitch of 6, and a
transmission accuracy number of 6. The driven gear has 60 teeth. Both are made of No.30 cast iron. The
shaft angle is 90o. The face width is 1.25 in, the pinion speed is 900 rev/min, and the normal pressure
angle is 20o. The pinion is mounted outboard of its bearings; the bearings of the gear straddle it. What is
the power rating based on AGMA bending strength? (For cast iron gearsets reliability information has
not yet been developed. We say life is greater than 107 revolutions; set KL =1, CL =1, CR =1, KR =1; and
apply a factor of safety. Use SF =2 and SH =2.)
For the above gear set and conditions, find the power rating based on AGMA surface durability.
What is the overall power rating of the gearset?
