How to find the DImensions of all the parts of the device

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on determining the dimensions of various components of a device, specifically Pin(A), Jaw(B and C), Nut(D), and Handle(E), in the context of a mechanism similar to a car jack. A force of 1779.261 N is applied to Jaw C, while a maximum human force of 100 N is exerted on the handle. The goal is to calculate the dimensions, particularly the diameter of the threaded nut, the vertical length of the handle, and the diameter of the pin. The user suggests relating the work done to the force applied at the handle to derive these dimensions and has provided updated diagrams for clarity. Overall, the discussion emphasizes the need for precise calculations based on the forces and mechanical relationships involved.

Homework Statement


As picture attached .We need to find the dimensions of all the parts that are Pin(A),Jaw(B and C), NUt (D) , Handle (E) .The jaw B is fixed and C is free to move towards B.There is a force T=1779.261 N on Jaw C.Secondly there is a human force involved in turning the handle (E) which is maximum of 100 N and can not exceed it.We need to find the dimensions for all the components discussed , especially the diameter of the threaded nut ,the verticle length of the Handle and the DIameter of the Pin being used.
U can see the mechanism of car jack .its exactly the same just the difference is that tehre are two jaws in place of traingle in car jack.


Homework Equations





The Attempt at a Solution


Well i think if we can possibly relate the work done is covering the distance with the force applied over the handle then we can caluculate the diemnsions of Handle and for the diameter of Nut if we can find its realtion with inertia .
