Example

The gear train shown is used with an input speed of 1200 rpm, cw. Determine the output velocity :

• N1=24• N2= 36• N3=20 • N4= 40• N5=16 • N6= 64

out =1200rpm*(24/36)*(20/40)*(16/64)=1200*(1/12)=100rpm

But, since power is conserved, the output Torque is increasedby a factor of 12

Questions

1. If you design a vehicle which you would like to drive at a slower rate, you are better off to use a gear train rather than simply reducing the power level to the motor. Why?

2. What happens if you increase the diameter of the driving wheels?

Wheel radius= r

(1) r2 = (R-b)(velocity hub axle 2)

(2) rl = (R+b) (velocity hub axle 1)

Angular velocity

Dividing (1) by (2)

2/l = (R-b) / (R+b)

Solving for R

R = b(1+ 2) / (1- 2)
