Training objectives
- The course provides the knowledge and methods for the functional synthesis of machines; in particular it deals with lubrication, gears, planar linkages and cam systems.
The course takes into account both the theoretical and the applicative point of view and includes numerical exercises. Prerequisites
- Courses of Mathematics, Physics, Theoretical Mechanics and Mechanics of Machines
Course programme
-
LUBRICATION: Lubricant viscosity and properties. Elementary theory of hydrodynamic lubrication; technical applications. Journal bearings: theory and design (use of Raimondi-Boyd diagrams). Hydrostatic lubrication; technical applications. Performances and applications of bearings.
GEARS: Spur gears: properties of the involute, velocity ratio, static analysis, manufacturing processes, contact ratio and interference, dimension standards, non-standard gear teeth, gear measurements. Helical gears. Bevel gears. Worm gears.
KINEMATIC SYNTHESIS OF PLANAR LINKAGES: Graphical and analytical methods for the functional design in the case of motion generation, path generation and function generation.
CAM SYSTEMS: Types of cams and followers. Design of a cam according to a given law of motion. Kinematic and kinetostatic analysis. Selection criteria for motion law. Didactic methods
- Theoretical/practical lessons.
Learning assessment procedures
- Written/oral examination.
