Problem 2(7 points)(Q0: 3100%)
It is desired to design a gear box as shown in the figure. Following information must be
followed:
Gears type: Spur
Smallest possible size gears
To avoid interference, number of teeth on
the smallest gear should not be less than 14
Maintain exact speed ratio
Input and output shafts are collinear
Input speed =3000rpm
Output speed =150rpm
Module =2.5mm
Pressure angle =20
Power =7.5kW
Analyze the gear box and:
a) Calculate the number of teeth of all gears.
b) Determine the shafts center distance c1 and c2(in mm )
c) Draw FBD showing all forces on gear 3 and 4 with the countershaft at A and B.
d) Calculate forces exerted by gear 2 on gear 3 and gear 5 on gear 4.
e) Calculate the countershaft forces at A and B.
f) What is the output torque of the shaft attached to gear 5? Neglect frictional
losses.
