WELCH ~~ A sudden heart attack took our Executive Secretary from cz.~ us on Saturday, March 9th. He leaves his wife, Marian, son Tru­ ~~ man Gary, daughter Lori Lynne and mother Winnie M. Welch. cz.~ We extend our heartfelt sympathy to the family. In the ~~ shock and grief of his passing we are unable to comprehend this cz.~ great loss to the Club. ~~ cz.~ ~~ ~~ ~~ 4 NATIONAL CoMMENTs Your Board of Directors is planning big things for the future. A glance over our shoulder allows us ANNUAL to see and remember the recent Annual Convention and all of its pleasures and opportunities to visit w~th friends from far and near. In looking ahead, your Board is already planning for the 1969 Annual Convention - and what a con­ vention it promises to be! It is with pleasure that I can announce the Board's recent approval of Direc­ tor Cecil Frye's proposal to hold the convention at the Huntington-Sheraton Hotel in Pasadena. This famous and picturesque hotel is a perfect setting for such a major event of a club whose theme and inter­ est is preservation of beautiful automobiles built in the early 1900s. The Huntington Hotel was. built in the carriage days for the carriage trade. It still holds the prestige and charm of those wonderful days of yesteryear. The atmosphere and setting of the Huntington is something you must see and enjoy to believe. Not only all this but the price of accommodations and banquet will be substantially less than the past sev­ eral years. The ladies will be inspired by the unlim­ ited shopping facilities in Pasadena. Committeemen are planning events, activities and field trips that will be inspiring and exciting for everyone. It is our intent to make 1968 a year memorable as one of fun and pleasure.

    Volume 3 Issue 3 Published by Lee Thevenet May - June, 2011 HORSELESS CARRIAGE REPLICA NEWSLETTER A Publication dedicated to the reporting of news, events, articles, photos, items for sale, etc, having to do with replica horseless carriages. Newsletter published six times a year and special issues when needed. From the Editor Hi everyone, Those of you who were not there, are the one’s that missed out on a great time, making new acquaintances and lots of great buys. Yes, I’m speaking about the Pre War Swap Meet that takes place each March in Chickasha, OK. Like every year before, there was a great time had by all that attended. Lots and lots of vendors showing their goods and beautiful cars to be had for the right price. For myself, this year’s trip to the candy store began a good twenty four hours before the meet was to begin, simply to be there when the vendor’s started to arrive. Remember the old saying “The early bird get’s the worm”. In this case, it was true. My quest this year was to find a very special part that would enable me to complete my REO build that has now gone past the completion time allowed to the project. The plans for the carriage had been completed and put up on the website quite a while back and the actual build, for the most part had been done for almost a year now, except for the final steps of painting and reassembly. Thus, the reason for not having any colored pictures on the REO Plans Page of the HCR.com Website.

Tulasi, Post Graduate Student, Department of Mechanical Engineering, RSCOE JSPM Pune, S. M. Jadhao, Assistant Professor, Department of Mechanical Engineering, RSCOE JSPM Pune for any crank radius, connecting rod geometry, and connecting Abstract—An agricultural single cylinder four stroke engine rod mass, connecting rod inertia, engine speed, engine experienced failure at customer location. This had to be taken acceleration, piston diameter, piston and pin mass, pressure care of immediately as it had affected the engine sales. To inside cylinder diagram, and any other variables of the engine. investigate the reason for failure various conventional methods were employed which include static analysis, but as static These equations are derived in Appendix I. The equations analysis could not explain the appropriate cause, dynamic provided the values of velocity and acceleration of the piston [5] analysis was considered. The process was divided into two stages and forces at the connecting rod crankshaft bearing . It first being determination of gas force, inertia force, bending force should be pointed out that in this analysis it was assumed that and torsional force through extensive excel sheet calculations the crankshaft rotates at a constant angular velocity, which considering the engine to be a single degree of freedom slider- means the angular acceleration was not included in the crank mechanism. The loads acting on the engine for varied [4] crankshaft angles were thus determined. A plot of these loads analysis . was presented to define the characteristics of the engine. For stage two a unique methodology known as superposition theory II.

  • Digital Twin and Triple Spark Ignition in Four- Stroke Internal Combustion Engines of Two- Wheelers
    International Journal of Innovations in Engineering and Technology (IJIET) Digital Twin and Triple Spark Ignition in Four- Stroke Internal Combustion Engines of Two- Wheelers G.V.N.B.Prabhkar Department Of Mechanical Engineering, V.K.R, V.N.B &A.G.K College of Engineering B.Kiran Babu Department Of Mechanical Engineering, V.K.R, V.N.B &A.G.K College of Engineering K.Durga Prasad Department Of Mechanical Engineering, V.K.R, V.N.B &A.G.K College of Engineering Abstract - Today it is a common trend. It has become a fashion for the people especially living in urban areas to ride such vehicles. Now the companies even want to launch such vehicles that attract the younger generation. This can be achieved by technology known as DTSi. Due to DTSi (digital twin spark ignition) system it is possible to combine strong performance and fuel efficiency. The improved engine efficiency modes have also resulted in lowered fuel consumption. The efficiency of these small engines were enhanced with increased power output just by increasing the number of fuel igniting element i.e. Spark Plug. Spark ignition is one of the most vital systems of an engine. Any variation in the spark timing and number of sparks per minute affects the engine performance severely. Thus a good design and control of the system parameters becomes most essential for optimum performance of an engine. Due to Digital Twin Spark Ignition system it is possible to combine strong performance and higher fuel efficiency. DTSi offers many advantages over conventional mechanical spark ignition system.

    “Kaiser Flyer # 5” Joseph W. (Jeeps) Frazer Joseph W. Frazer was the automobile “expert” part of the Kaiser-Frazer Corporation. He was respected by the Detroit “in” crowd and was well-known as an outstanding automotive expert and salesman. He was born in Nashville, Tenn in 1892 into a well-to-do family. His brother operated a Packard Agency in Nashville and young Joe would doodle with drawing pictures of cars during his school days. He could have started his working career at various high- salary jobs in an executive position in other industries but chose instead to begin work at Packard as a mechanic’s helper at less than 20 cents per hour. He wanted to be close to his love - Joseph W. Frazer in his Willow Run Office early 1946 automobiles. Although he was very successful in several aspects of the automobile business, including starting the first technical school for automotive mechanics, his heart was always in sales and promotion. He sold Packard motor cars in New York and at his brother’s Nashville dealership and by the end of World War I he was ready to begin his quest for making his mark on the automobile industry. He first took an opportunity at GM’s Chevrolet Division in sales. He was soon promoted into the GM Export Division as Treasurer and helped to organize the General Motors Acceptance Division, one of the first strictly automobile credit agencies established in the country. GM later loaned Joe to Pierce-Arrow to assist them in creating their own credit agency.
