Ear shaft.3. Chapter 12 –Loading on Spur Gears: A 26-tooth pinion rotating at a uniform 1800 rpm meshes with a 55-tooth gear in a spur gear reducer. Both pinion and gear are manufactured to a quality level of 10. The transmitted tangential load is 22 kN. Conditions are such that Km = 1.7. The teeth are standard 20-degree, full-depth. The module is 5 and the face width 62 mm. Determine the bending stress when the mesh is at the highest point of single tooth contact.

Tom is having a problem with his washing machine. he notices that the machine vibrates violently at a frequency of 1500 rpm due to an unknown rotating unbalance. the machine is mounted on 4 springs each having a stiffness of 10 kn/m. tom wishes to add an undamped vibration absorber attached by a spring under the machine the machine working frequency ranges between 800 rpm to 2000 rpm and its total mass while loaded is assumed to be 80 kg a) what should be the mass of the absorber added to the machine so that the natural frequency falls outside the working range? b) after a first trial of an absorber using a mass of 35 kg, the amplitude of the oscillation was found to be 10 cm. what is the value of the rotating unbalance? c) using me-3.5 kg.m, find the optimal absorber (by minimizing its mass). what would be the amplitude of the oscillation of the absorber?
