HI, Thanks for the reply. Insuctrial trucks, like fork lift trucks has a set of planetary gear with sun gear combination, which is used for a manual transmission. I am referring the Shiegly. If you are aware of any useful site, please do let me know. Thanks for everything. Ch.

Hi all, Thanks for your replies and guiding me through. I have asked for Power requirements. As a process, they want me initially to work on only deciding the number of tooth on each gear, and the tooth profile & thickness of tooth, keping bearing loads, lubrications effects aside. So if I...

Hi All, As a process of my project work, i have been asked to develop a manual transmission. I have to design gears (Crown, Planetary and Sun gears) to achieve a final reduction of 30.45, with first stage gear reduction & second stage reduction being 5.28 & 5.77 respectively. Can...

Hi Fred, Thanks a lot for your time. It is real good information to know. Thanks you very much once again.

HI all, I am interested in designing a tapered bearing. Can anyone please let me know the parameters to be considered in order to design. I have been given a load acting on the sleeve, and the arae available to fit the bearing. If any useful site which talks about bearing and its...

HI, Thank you very much for very useful information and your precious time. Chandra.

Hello All, Can anyone let me know the difference between Vonmises Stress criterion and Maximum Principle Stress criterion ?? And for what kind of materials " Brittle / Ductile " can they be used and why ?? Thanks in advance for your time.

Hi, I might be wrong, but I was going through the problem statement and got a doubt there. I think you have considered A1 as aan area of Master Cylinder, then F1 should be 44 N, as it is the force applied on the brake pedal. F2 must be a force exerted by a brake cylinder. Please...

HI all, Thanks for the time and discussion. I understand now, the limitations to have a brake system on drive shaft. But added to this, suppose if I am thinking of a 4 wheel drive, with a brake arrangement on front / rear transaxle, with a sufficient method to heat dissipation, I...

HI, There is no problem with the brakes on hub. But anyway the wheel hub is rotating by a shaft which in turn rotating with a drive shaft. So a simple arrangement to stop or slowingdown the drive shaft, results the same, thus I can eliminate the brakes on wheel. What are the limitations I...

Brakes on Drive Shaft ?? HI all, I am new to this forum. I have a doubt on braking system. Any help in this regard is highly appreciated. Why can not we have brake on drive shaft or some point at flywheel ?? Any discussion in this regard is appreciated. I am hoping to find a...
