What are the different types of motion with which a follower can move? These four are
rotary, oscillating, linear and reciprocating
. Each one moves in a slightly different way and each type of achieved using different mechanical means that help us understand linear motion and motion control.
What are the different types of motions can be transmitted with cam & follower?
Cam is a mechanical component which is a rotating circle or eclipse about the minor axis of the Follower. Hence it can be explained easily that Cam is a mechanical component that transmits
reciprocating, oscillating or linear motion
to Follower.
Which of this is a type of follower motion *?
Motion of the Follower :
Simple harmonic motion
, 3. Uniform acceleration and retardation, and 4. Cycloidal motion.
Which is not a type of follower motion *?
Cycloidal
. Simple harmonic. Uniform acceleration and retardation.
What are the different motions of the follower?
Uniform velocity, Simple harmonic motion, Uniform acceleration and retardation, Cycloidal motion
.
What is cycloidal motion?
Cycloid,
the curve generated by a point on the circumference of a circle that rolls along a straight line
. If r is the radius of the circle and θ (theta) is the angular displacement of the circle, then the polar equations of the curve are x = r(θ – sin θ) and y = r(1 – cos θ).
Are radial follower is one?
Explanation: In radial cams, the follower reciprocates or oscillates in a direction perpendicular to the cam axis. … Explanation: When
the motion of the follower is along an axis passing through the centre of the cam
, it is known as radial follower.
Which motion of follower is best for high speed?
- Uniform velocity.
- Simple harmonic motion.
- Uniform acceleration and retardation.
- Cycloidal motion.
What is cam and its classification?
Several different classifications are used. According the shape cams are
radial, face, wedge, cylindrical, spherical, helical, conical, 3 dimensional ,etc
. Cam pairs are classified as force closed or form closed. Force closed cam pairs are more common since it is expensive to manufacture form closed cams.
What is the function of cam follower?
Cam follower bearings are also known as track followers. As the name implies, they are essential to make the cam followers work effectively. Cam followers are
capable of handling intermittent shock and heavy loads
. They also can have a soft core that allows for extreme shock loads without fracture.
Which type of cam follower is used in automobiles?
knife edge follower
. Flat faced follower. spherical faced follower.
What is cam jump phenomenon?
THEORY: Jump Phenomenon: The Jump phenomenon occurs in case of cam operating under the action of compression spring load. This is
transient conditions that occur only with high speed, highly flexible cam-follower systems
. … Also related are the short life of the cam flank surface, high noise, vibrations and poor action.
What is displacement diagram?
A Displacement Diagram is
essentially a graph which plots the movement of a cam follower against time
. Since the cam’s movement is usually constant then equal time intervals can be represented by equal distances along the horizontal axis and the resulting follower movement (or ‘displacement’) along the vertical axis.
What is throw cam?
The greatest distance or angle through which the follower moves or rotates
. It is the maximum distance of followers from the base circle. Cam Profile.
When flat face follower is circular then it is called?
When the contacting end of the follower is a perfectly flat face, it is called a flat faced follower and when the flat faced follower is circular, it is then called
a mushroom follower
. 2.
What is meant by order defect *?
Explanation: Order defect occurs
when the precision points are not configured properly
. It is to be noted that too many configuration points does not lead to order defect. … Explanation: Precision points are defined as the points where structural errors are 0.
