Not illustrated. 1909 Excerpt: ...That portion of the rotating member which engages with the bearing is known as a journal. 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...

Elements of MACHINE DESIGN by DEXTER KIMBALL AND JOHN BARR. Originally published in 1909. Preface: THIS book presupposes a knowledge of Mechanism and Mechanics of Engineering. 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. A thorough understanding of these gencraI principles is essential to successful design. A very brief discussion of typical energy and force problems is given in Chapter 11. The general principles of lubrication and efficiency are discussed in Chapter IV. Both of these are of prime importance to the engineer and while the discussion is necessarily brief it is believed that the fundamental principles are fully covered. The remainder of the book is devoted to the discussion of some of the more important machine details, with a view of showing how the theoretical considerations and equations discussed in the first part of the work are applied and modified in practice. The treatise is, in no sense, a hand-book, neither is it a manual for the drafting room, but is a discussion of the fundamental principles of design, and only such practical data have been collected as are needed to verify or modify logical theory. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.

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.
