Engineering Drawing/Technical Drawing Assembly model

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers around identifying an assembly model that converts linear motion of a shaft into circular motion of a disk. Participants describe its components, including a belt, pulley, pinion, bevel gear, flywheel, and a counterbalanced reciprocating output motion shaft. One participant humorously identifies the assembly as a walnut cracker, while others suggest potential uses like a reciprocating pump drive or a tool for making donut holes. The request for a CAD model remains unanswered, highlighting a need for further information. Overall, the conversation explores the mechanics and possible applications of the assembly.

Hi all,

I was just wondering if anybody knew what the attached assembly is and how it works- any information on where to find a CAD model for one would be greatly appreciated, too!

Thanks guys

Looks like it converts linear motion of the shaft to circular motion of the disk (or visa-versa). Do you have any more information about it?
 
It appears that a belt is attached to the pulley (Item 1). This turns the pinion on the shaft, which is engaged to the horizontal shaft by bevel gear. There on the right hand side is a flywheel, and the left hand side is a counterbalanced reciprocating up/down output motion shaft (Item 2).

Well geez, anyone can see that it's a walnut cracker! :redface:
One could use it for a reciprocating pump drive.
It might make it a good tool to punch out donut holes.
Or to give Bond, James Bond, his "shaken, not stirred" Martinis.
 
Thread 'Turbocharging carbureted petrol 2 stroke engines'
Hi everyone, online I ve seen some images about 2 stroke carbureted turbo (motorcycle derivation engine). Now.. In the past in this forum some members spoke about turbocharging 2 stroke but not in sufficient detail. The intake and the exhaust are open at the same time and there are no valves like a 4 stroke. But if you search online you can find carbureted 2stroke turbo sled or the Am6 turbo. The question is: Is really possible turbocharge a 2 stroke carburated(NOT EFI)petrol engine and...
I need some assistance with calculating hp requirements for moving a load. - The 4000lb load is resting on ball bearing rails so friction is effectively zero and will be covered by my added power contingencies. Load: 4000lbs Distance to travel: 10 meters. Time to Travel: 7.5 seconds Need to accelerate the load from a stop to a nominal speed then decelerate coming to a stop. My power delivery method will be a gearmotor driving a gear rack. - I suspect the pinion gear to be about 3-4in in...
