7.5 kW. UNIT II A leather faced conical clutch has cone angle of 300. The pressure between the contact surface is limited to 0.35 N/mm2 and the breadth of the conical surface is not to exceed 1/3rd of the mean radius. Determine the dimensions of the contact surface to transmit 22 kW at 2000 rpm. Also calculate the force required to engage the clutch. Take the coefficient of friction as 0.15. OR A radial cam with a prime circle diameter of 150 mm rotates at 200 rpm. The follower rises 50 mm with parabolic motion in 1200 of cam rotation. When the cam angle is 300, find the value of pressure angle for i. Radial follower ii. Follower offset opposite the cam rotation equal to 10 mm. UNIT III Design a straight spur gear drive for transmitting a power of 8 kW with a pinion speed of 764 rpm. Speed ratio is 2. The gears are to be made of C45 steel. Life is to be 10,000 hours. OR Determine the geometric dimensions of a 6 station Geneva wheel for the driving crank radius of 100 mm. UNIT IV Design a bevel gear drive to transmit 3.5 kW. Speed ratio = 4. Driving shaft speed is 200 rpm. The drive is non reversible. The pinion is made of Steel whereas wheel is of CI. Assume a life of 25,000 hrs. OR Design a worm gear drive to transmit 20 KW at 1440 rpm. The speed of worm wheel is 60 rpm. The worm and wheel are made up of steel, bronze respectively. Select the
