INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION: SERIES ONE: the Boulton and Watt Archive, Parts 2 and 3
INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION: SERIES ONE: The Boulton and Watt Archive, Parts 2 and 3 Publisher's Note - Part - 3 Over 3500 drawings covering some 272 separate engines are brought together in this section devoted to original manuscript plans and diagrams. Watt’s original engine was a single-acting device for producing a reciprocating stroke. It had an efficiency four times that of the atmospheric engine and was used extensively for pumping water at reservoirs, by brine works, breweries, distilleries, and in the metal mines of Cornwall. To begin with it played a relatively small part in the coal industry. In the iron industry these early engines were used to raise water to turn the great wheels which operated the bellows, forge hammers, and rolling mills. Even at this first stage of development it had important effects on output. However, Watt was extremely keen to make improvements on his initial invention. His mind had long been busy with the idea of converting the to and fro action into a rotary movement, capable of turning machinery and this was made possible by a number of devices, including the 'sun-and-planet', a patent for which was taken out in 1781. In the following year came the double-acting, rotative engine, in 1784 the parallel motion engine, and in 1788, a device known as the 'governor', which gave the greater regularity and smoothness of working essential in a prime mover for the more delicate and intricate of industrial processes. The introduction of the rotative engine was a momentous event. By 1800 Boulton and Watt had built and put into operation over 500 engines, a large majority being of the 'sun and planet type'. -

Part 1: Transmission of continuous rotation Part 2: Other kinds of motion transmission Part 3: Mechanisms of specific purposes Autodesk Inventor is used to create all videos in this document. They are available on Youtube channel “thang010146”. To bring as many as possible existing mechanical mechanisms into this document is author’s desire. However it is obstructed by author’s ability and Inventor’s capacity. Therefore from this document may be absent such mechanisms that are of complicated structure or include flexible and fluid links. This document is periodically renewed because the video building is continuous as long as possible. The renewed time is shown on the first page. This document may be helpful for people, who - have to deal with mechanical mechanisms everyday - see mechanical mechanisms as a hobby Any criticism or suggestion is highly appreciated with the author’s hope to make this document more useful.

While the Watt engine had been patented in 1769 in Britain, the two associates sought to protect their invention across the Channel in the 1770s. They coordinated a pragmatic strategy to enrol native allies who helped them to obtain in 1778 an exclusive privilege from the King’s Council to exploit their engine but this had the express condition of its superiority being proven before experts of the Royal Academy of Science. -
Novel Designs and Geometry for Mechanical Gearing
Novel Designs and Geometry for Mechanical Gearing by Erasmo Chiappetta School of Engineering, Computing and Mathematics Oxford Brookes University In collaboration with Norbar Torque Tools ltd., UK. A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of Oxford Brookes University for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy September 2018 Abstract This thesis presents quasi-static Finite Element Methods for the analysis of the stress state occurring in a pair of loaded spur gears and aims to further research the effect of tooth profile modifications on the mechanical performance of a mating gear pair. The investigation is then extended to epicyclic transmissions as they are considered the most viable solution when the transmission of high torque level within a compact volume is required. Since, for the current study, only low speed conditions are considered, dynamic loads do not play a crucial role. Vibrations and the resulting noise might be considered negligible and consequently the design process is dictated entirely by the stress state occurring on the mating components. Gear load carrying capacity is limited by maximum contact and bending stress and their correlated failure modes. Consequently, the occurring stress state is the main criteria to characterise the load carrying capacity of a gear system. Contact and bending stresses are evaluated for multiple positions over a mesh cycle of a contacting tooth pair in order to consider the stress fluctuation as consequence of the alternation of single and double pairs of teeth in contact. The influence of gear geometrical proportions on mechanical properties of gears in mesh is studied thoroughly by means of the definition of a domain of feasible combination of geometrical parameters in order to deconstruct the well-established gear design process based on rating standards and base the defined gear geometry on operational and manufacturing constraints only. -
Basic Fundamentals of Gear Drives
Basic Fundamentals of Gear Drives Course No: M06-031 Credit: 6 PDH A. Bhatia Continuing Education and Development, Inc. 22 Stonewall Court Woodcliff Lake, NJ 07677 P: (877) 322-5800 [email protected] BASIC FUNDAMENTALS OF GEAR DRIVES A gear is a toothed wheel that engages another toothed mechanism to change speed or the direction of transmitted motion. Gears are generally used for one of four different reasons: 1. To increase or decrease the speed of rotation; 2. To change the amount of force or torque; 3. To move rotational motion to a different axis (i.e. parallel, right angles, rotating, linear etc.); and 4. To reverse the direction of rotation. Gears are compact, positive-engagement, power transmission elements capable of changing the amount of force or torque. Sports cars go fast (have speed) but cannot pull any weight. Big trucks can pull heavy loads (have power) but cannot go fast. Gears cause this. Gears are generally selected and manufactured using standards established by American Gear Manufacturers Association (AGMA) and American National Standards Institute (ANSI). This course provides an outline of gear fundamentals and is beneficial to readers who want to acquire knowledge about mechanics of gears. The course is divided into 6 sections: Section -1 Gear Types, Characteristics and Applications Section -2 Gears Fundamentals Section -3 Power Transmission Fundamentals Section -4 Gear Trains Section -5 Gear Failure and Reliability Analysis Section -6 How to Specify and Select Gear Drives SECTION -1 GEAR TYPES, CHARACTERISTICS & APPLICATIONS The gears can be classified according to: 1. the position of shaft axes 2. -
Steam Engine Collection
STEAM ENGINE COLLECTION The New England Museum of Wireless And Steam Frenchtown Road ~ East Greenwich, R.I. International Mechanical Engineering Heritage Collection Designated September 12, 1992 The American Society of Mechanical Engineers INTRODUCTION It has been said that an operating steam engine is ‘visual music’. The New England Museum of Wireless and Steam provides the steam engine enthusiast, the mechanical engineer and the public at large with an opportunity to experience the ‘music’ when the engines are in steam. At the same time they can appreciate the engineering skills of those who designed the engines. The New England Museum of Wireless and Steam is unusual among museums in its focus on one aspect of mechanical engineering history, namely, the history of the steam engine. It is especially rich in engines manufactured in Rhode Island, a state which has had an influence on the history of the steam engine in the United States out of all proportion to its size and population. Many of the great names in the design and manufacture of steam engines received their training in Rhode Island, most particularly in the shops of the Corliss Steam Engine Co. in Providence. George H. Corliss, an important contributor to steam engine technology, founded his company in Providence in 1846. Engines that used his patent valve gear were built in large numbers by the Corliss company, and by others, both in the United States and abroad, either under license or in various modified forms once the Corliss patent expired in 1870. The New England Museum of Wireless and Steam is particularly fortunate in preserving an example of a Corliss engine built by the Corliss Steam Engine Company. -
