PART – B
Module – I
11. Design a bearing and journal to support a load of 4500 N at 600 rpm using a
hardened steel journal and a bronze backed babbit bearing. An abundance of oil is
supplied by means of oiling rings. The oil viscosity is 250 2nd saybolt at 37.8°C
and the specific gravity is 0.90 at 15.6°C. The bearing is relieved for 20 degree
from the normal to the load line. 20
12. A ball bearing operates on the subsequent work cycle.

The dynamic load carrying capacity of the bearing is 16.6 kN. obtain
a) The avg. speed of rotation.
b) The equivalent radial load and.
c) The bearing life. 20
Module – II
13. A pair of spur gears is to be used for a sugar crusher. Design the gears for strength.
Power transmitted = 25 kW
Speed of pinion = 400 rpm
Speed reduction ratio = 4:1
Tooth profile = 20° full depth involute
Velocity = six m/sec (limited). 20
______ -3- 7116
14. Design a worm gear drive to transmit three KW at 600 rpm. Speed of worm wheel is
40 rpm. Tabulate the outcomes neatly. 20
Module – III
15. discuss with sketches the various kinds of machine tool beds and their design
features. 20
16. a) provide an account about design of slide ways for wear resistance. 10
b) Enumerate the basic procedure associated with Ram-type structures. 10
