Ef-3.1 Ef Series Engineering Fundamentals - EF series MECHANISMS Cam, Crank and Toggle – EF-3.1 EF SERIES The Engineering Fundamentals range enables students to gain an AN INNOVATIVE HANDS ON MODULAR SYSTEM DESIGNED TO ENABLE understanding of the principles of engineering by the process of learning INVESTIGATION AND THE UNDERSTANDING OF ENGINEERING PRINCIPLES via experimentation. The EF-3.1- Cam, Crank and Toggle experiments kit provides students with an introduction to cams and rollers and additionally crank motion and toggle. The kit is designed to help students understand how cams are used, to show how the rotational motion of a cam is transmitted to the linear motion of a follower and how different shapes of cam can be used to achieve varying magnitude and duration of linear motion. Similar to cams, a crank mechanism can transform rotational motion into linear motion although unlike cams, cranks can also work in the opposite direction, transferring linear motion into rotational motion.

  • Poppet Valve
    POPPET VALVE A poppet valve is a valve consisting of a hole, usually round or oval, and a tapered plug, usually a disk shape on the end of a shaft also called a valve stem. The shaft guides the plug portion by sliding through a valve guide. In most applications a pressure differential helps to seal the valve and in some applications also open it. Other types Presta and Schrader valves used on tires are examples of poppet valves. The Presta valve has no spring and relies on a pressure differential for opening and closing while being inflated. Uses Poppet valves are used in most piston engines to open and close the intake and exhaust ports. Poppet valves are also used in many industrial process from controlling the flow of rocket fuel to controlling the flow of milk[[1]]. The poppet valve was also used in a limited fashion in steam engines, particularly steam locomotives. Most steam locomotives used slide valves or piston valves, but these designs, although mechanically simpler and very rugged, were significantly less efficient than the poppet valve. A number of designs of locomotive poppet valve system were tried, the most popular being the Italian Caprotti valve gear[[2]], the British Caprotti valve gear[[3]] (an improvement of the Italian one), the German Lentz rotary-cam valve gear, and two American versions by Franklin, their oscillating-cam valve gear and rotary-cam valve gear. They were used with some success, but they were less ruggedly reliable than traditional valve gear and did not see widespread adoption. In internal combustion engine poppet valve The valve is usually a flat disk of metal with a long rod known as the valve stem out one end.

  • Installation Instructions Cloyes® 3-Keyway Crank Sprockets
    February 2, 2009 Installation Instructions Cloyes ® 3-Keyway Crank Sprockets The Cloyes® Patented 3-Keyway crank sprocket allows adjustment of the crankshaft timing by ± 4°. Remember: The camshaft angle is half of the crankshaft angle, therefore the camshaft will correspondingly advance or retard by ± 2°. By changing the cam timing, enhancements to the camshaft characteristics can be achieved. For example, retarding the cam timing will increase high RPM horsepower, and advancing the cam timing will increase low-end torque. The following examples illustrate which timing mark is used with its corresponding keyway: GM and Chrysler Ford Retard keyway To retard the camshaft timing, use the timing mark on the crank sprocket and the retard keyway shown above. GM and Chrysler Ford Factory keyway For factory specified timing, use the Ο timing mark on the crank sprocket and the factory keyway shown above. GM and Chrysler Ford Advance keyway To advance the camshaft timing, use the ∆ timing mark on the crank sprocket and the advance keyway shown above. Notes: After determining which setting to use, we advise marking (with white marker or similar) the corresponding timing mark and keyway. This will make them easier to identify during installation. Some high performance camshafts are ground with advance or retard built in. In this case the cam manufacturer intends the cam to be set at the factory specified timing. Also, during and after installation, observe for any interference between the timing set and engine block. If interference is found, remove or grind that area of the block so adequate clearance is obtained. When removing a press fit crank sprocket, a proper pulling tool should be used.

    CAR 2 CAR Communication Consortium Survey on ITS-G5 CAM statistics CAR 2 CAR Communication Consortium About the C2C-CC Enhancing road safety and traffic efficiency by means of Cooperative Intelligent Transport Systems and Services (C-ITS) is the dedicated goal of the CAR 2 CAR Communication Consortium. The industrial driven, non-commercial association was founded in 2002 by vehicle manufacturers affiliated with the idea of cooperative road traffic based on Vehicle-to-Vehicle Communications (V2V) and supported by Vehicle-to-Infrastructure Communications (V2I). Today, the Consortium comprises 88 members, with 18 vehicle manufacturers, 39 equipment suppliers and 31 research organisations. Over the years, the CAR 2 CAR Communication Consortium has evolved to be one of the key players in preparing the initial deployment of C-ITS in Europe and the subsequent innovation phases. CAR 2 CAR members focus on wireless V2V communication applications based on ITS-G5 and concentrate all efforts on creating standards to ensure the interoperability of cooperative systems, spanning all vehicle classes across borders and brands. As a key contributor, the CAR 2 CAR Communication Consortium works in close cooperation with the European and international standardisation organisations such as ETSI and CEN.

  • Basic Camshaft Adjustment Instructions in Order To
    Basic Camshaft adjustment instructions In order to accommodate the INEX rule regarding cranking compression a camshaft timing adjustment may be necessary. By retarding the intake opening timing the static compression will stay the same while lowering the cranking compression. The first step is to check your existing compression. Warm your engine up. Pull all spark plugs, using some good anti seize screw in your compression tester. INEX uses the MAC tools CT-25 compression tester with the 12mm adaptor. Readings can vary considerably so make sure you have a quality gauge that has been well taken care of. With carbs at full throttle crank your engine 10 to 12 revolutions and read the gauge. Once you have determined your starting point remove your valve cover. The first thing you will see will be your intake and exhaust camshafts. The Intake will be the one closest to your carburetors. Slowly rotate your engine over using a 7/8” or 22 millimeter wrench until you can see a dot in the camshaft while looking down thru the hole in the number 3 cam cap. ADJ BOLT CAM HOLE INTAKE CAM Each gear will have 2 opposing slots that allow you to turn the gear on the camshaft. Loosen up the two INTAKE cam bolts using a 10MM wrench. DO NOT REMOVE, just loosen. While loose, rotate the cam towards the carburetors just a small amount (1/16”) this can usually be done by using a 7/8” or 22 MM wrench on the hex part of the cam, right next to the gear.

  • Concept of Six Stroke Engine
    JOURNAL OF ADVANCEMENT IN ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY Journal homepage: http://scienceq.org/Journals/JAET.php Research Article Open Access Concept of Six Stroke Engine P.Naresh1*, A.V.Hari Babu 2 , 1,2, P Naresh , Asst professor in ME DEPT, AVR&SVR College of Engg&Tech,Nandyal. *Corresponding author: P.Naresh, E.mail : [email protected] Received: November 27, 2015, Accepted: December 18, 2015, Published: December 18, 2015 ABSTRACT One of the most difficult challenges in engine technology today is the urgent need to increase engine thermal efficiency. Higher efficiencies mean less fuel consumption and lower atmospheric emissions per unit of work produced by the engine. In 1862 a Frenchman Alphouse Beau de Rochas gives his theory regarding the ideal cycle of the internal combustion engine. This theory is applied by a German engineer named Nikolaus A. Otto, who firstly built a successful four-stroke SI engine in 1876. The four-stroke combustion cycle later became known as the "Otto cycle". In four stroke engine, the piston executes four complete strokes within the cylinder, and the crankshaft completes two revolutions for each thermodynamic cycle. The disadvantage of the four-stroke cycle is that only half as many power strokes are 2 completed per revolution of the crankshaft. The capacity of the four strokes would be 340cc only. Less torque is generated during the process. Pollution is more in four stroke engine. In six strokes the engine captures the exhausted heat from the four stroke cycle and uses it to get an additional power and exhaust stroke of the piston in the same cylinder.
