Question 5: Design a cam with a minimum radius of 25 mm, rotating counter clockwise at a uniform speed, is required to give a knife edge follower the motion as described below: (marks =3+3) a) To move outwards through 45 mm during 60 rotation of the cam b) To dwell for next 120 c) To return to its starting position during next 90, and d) To dwell for the rest period of a revolution i.e.90. The line of stroke of the follower passes through the centre of the cam shaft, and the displacement of the follower is to take place with Uniform Acceleration and Retardation motion. Draw the following: 1. Displacement, velocity and acceleration diagram of the follower motion 2. Cam profile.
