Excerpt from Elements of Machine DesignThis book is the outgrowth of the experience of the authors in teaching Machine Design to engineering students in Sibley College, Cornell University. It presupposes a knowledge of Mechanism and Mechanics of Engineering. While the former subject is a logical part of Machine Design, it may be, and usually is, for convenience, treated separately and in advance of that portion of the subject which treats of the proportioning of machine parts so that they will withstand the loads applied. The same logical order is usually followed in actual designing, as it is, ordinarily, necessary and convenient to outline the mechanism before proportioning the various members.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Journals are necessarily circular in all cross-sections, but their profile may be cylindrical, conical, spherical, or even more complex in form, as in the case of thrust bearings. (See Art. 105.) One or more of the following considerations affect the design of the bearing proper:--(a) Rigidity, in order that the alignment may not be seriously affected by deflection. (b) Strength, to resist rupture under the greatest loads. (c) Adjustment, to compensate for wear. (d) Formation and maintenance of an oil film. (e) Automatic adjustment, to insure alignment. (a and b). The inside diameter, or bore of the bearing, and also its length are fixed by the dimensions of the journal which engages with it; and the required strength and rigidity may be secured by a proper distribution of metal in accordance with the general principles discussed in Chapter III, and which apply to all forms of bearings, as far as strength and stiffness are concerned. Usually the question of strength does not enter into the design of the main part of the bearing. If, however, the cap A, Fig. 80, should be called upon to carry the load, as is often the case, its dimensions should, in general, be checked for strength, and its design should be such that stiffness is secured. The exact distribution of the pressure over a bearing is not known; but the assumption that the cap is a beam loaded at the centre and of a length equal to the distance between the cap bolts will give dimensions on the safe side for strength and deflection. The greatest bending moment and deflection for such beams are given in Case IX, Table 1. It is impossible to adjust the cap bolts so as to be sure that the load is uniformly distrib...

This book was digitized and reprinted from the collections of the University of California Libraries. It was produced from digital images created through the libraries’ mass digitization efforts. The digital images were cleaned and prepared for printing through automated processes. Despite the cleaning process, occasional flaws may still be present that were part of the original work itself, or introduced during digitization.

Machine Design to engineering students inS ibley College, Cornell University. It presupposes a knowledge of Mechanism and Mechanics of Engineering. While the former subject is a logical part of Machine Design, it may be, and usually is, for convenience, treated separately and in advance of that portion of the subject which treats of the proportioning of machine parts so that they will withstand the loads applied. The same logical order is usually followed in actual designing, as it is, ordinarily, necessary and convenient to outline the mechanism before proportioning the various members. With the mechanism determined, the remainder of the work of designing a machine consists of two distinct parts: (a) Consideration of the energy changes in the machine, and the maximum forces resulting therefrom. (b) Proportioning the various parts to withstand these forces. This logical procedure, and the fundamental principles underlying the first part (a), are seldom made clear to the student, in works of this character; and such information as is given on energy transformation in machines is, in general, that relating to special cases or types. A thorough understanding of these general principles is, however, in most cases, essential to successful design, since a consideration of the machine as a whole necessarily precedes consideration of details. A very brief discussion of typical energy and force problems is given, therefore, inC hapter II, in the hope of making this important matter somewhat clearer to the beginner.(Typographical errors above are due to OCR software and don't occur in the book.)About the Publisher Forgotten Books is a publisher of historical writings, such as: Philosophy, Classics, Science, Religion, History, Folklore and Mythology.Forgotten Books' Classic Reprint Series utilizes the latest technology to regenerate facsimiles of historically important writings.

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
