If the inside radius of the pulley rim is equal to 150 mm and the angle subtended by shoes at the centre of the spider is 60°, find the net outward radial force of the centrifugal clutch. The intensity of pressure is equal to 0.1 N/mm2 and the width is given to be 100 mm.

Correct Answer: 1570.8 N
θ = 60° = π/3 rad, R = 150 mm, b = 100 mm and p = 0.1 N/mm2 l = θ R = 157.08 mm Net outward radial force of the centrifugal clutch = l.b.p = Pc – Ps Pc – Ps = 157.08 x 100 x 0.1 = 1570.8 N.

A centrifugal clutch is to transmit 35 kW at 1500 r.p.m. There are four shoes. The speed at which the engagement begins is 0.7 times the running speed. The inside radius of the pulley rim is 120 mm and the centre of gravity of the shoe lies at 80 mm from the centre of the spider. Coefficient of friction may be taken as 0.35. Determine intensity of pressure exerted on the shoes if the angle subtended by the shoes at the centre of the spider is 60° and the width of the shoes is 105.52 mm.

A centrifugal clutch is to transmit 22.5 kW at 1250 r.p.m. There are four shoes. The speed at which the engagement begins is 0.5 times the running speed. The inside radius of the pulley rim is 175 mm and the centre of gravity of the shoe lies at 120 mm from the centre of the spider. Coefficient of friction may be taken as 0.3. Determine the width of the shoe if the angle subtended by the shoes at the centre of the spider is 60° and the intensity of pressure exerted on the shoes is 0.05 N/mm2.

A centrifugal clutch has four shoes. When the clutch is at rest, each shoe is pulled against a stop by a spring so that it leaves a radial clearance of 7.5 mm between the shoe and the rim. The pull exerted by the spring is then 600 N. The mass centre of the shoe is 120 mm from the axis of the clutch. If the internal diameter of the rim is 350 mm, the mass of each shoe is 5 kg, the stiffness of each spring is 60 N/mm and the coefficient of friction between the shoe and the rim is 0.2; find the speed of the centrifugal clutch, if the power transmitted is 40.168 kW.

A centrifugal clutch has four shoes. When the clutch is at rest, each shoe is pulled against a stop by a spring so that it leaves a radial clearance of 10 mm between the shoe and the rim. The pull exerted by the spring is then 700 N. The mass centre of the shoe is 150 mm from the axis of the clutch. If the internal diameter of the rim is 500 mm, the mass of each shoe is 6 kg, the stiffness of each spring is 75 N/mm and the coefficient of friction between the shoe and the rim is 0.35; find the power transmitted by the clutch at 400 r.p.m.

A centrifugal clutch is to transmit 25 kW at 1200 r.p.m. There are four shoes. The speed at which the engagement begins is 0.5 times the running speed. The inside radius of the pulley rim is 100 mm and the centre of gravity of the shoe lies at 75 mm from the centre of the spider. Coefficient of friction may be taken as 0.3. Determine mass of the shoes.

Which of the following clutches include shoes and spider inside the rim of the pulley?

The layout of a shaft supported on bearings at A & B is shown. Power is supplied by means of a vertical belt on pulley B which is then transmitted to pulley C carrying a horizontal belt. The angle of wrap is 180’ and coefficient of friction is 0.3. Maximum permissible tension in the rope is 3kN. The radius of pulley at B & C is 300mm and 150mm. Calculate the tension in the rope of pulley C.

Given are the steps to draw a perpendicular to a line at a point within the line when the point is near the centre of line. Arrange the steps. Let AB be the line and P be the point in it i. Join F and P which is perpendicular to AB. ii. Now C as centre take the same radius and cut the arc at D and again D as centre with same radius cut the arc further at E. iii. With centre as P take any radius and draw an arc (more than a semicircle) cuts AB at C. iv. Now D, E as centre take radius (more than half of DE) draw arcs which cut at F.
