UNIT I DESIGN OF FLEXIBLE ELEMENTS
Design of Flat belts and pulleys - Selection of V belts and pulleys – Selection of hoisting wire ropes and
pulleys – Design of Transmission chains and Sprockets
17 List the factor that affects the working conditions of chain drive. Understanding
What is done to accommodate initial sag in chain drive? BT-2
Design a spur gear drive for a heavy machine tool with moderate
shocks. The pinion is transmitting 18KW at 1200 rpm with a gear
ratio of 3.5. Design the drive and check for elastic stress and
