The paper describes Input Data: designing and manufacturing an open differential for an off road ATV (Quad Bike) so that the vehicle maneuvers sharp Turning radius of vehicle: - 3m corners without losing traction to the driving wheels. Rear Track width: - 40” Rear tire diameter: - 23” Key Words: Open differential, traction difference, ANSYS, CREO, gear, pinion, centre pin. 1. INTRODUCTION A differential is a gear train with three shafts that has the property that the rotational speed of one shaft is the average of the speeds of the others, or a fixed multiple of that average. In automobiles, the differential allows the outer drive wheel to rotate faster than the inner drive wheel during a turn. This is necessary when the vehicle turns, making the wheel that is travelling around the outside of the turning curve roll farther and faster than the other. The average of the rotational speed of the two driving wheels equals the input rotational speed of the drive shaft.

    © 1994 by Alexander H. Slocum Precision Machine Design Topic 21 Linear motion actuators Purpose: This lecture provides an introduction to the design issues associated with linear power transmission elements. Major topics: • Error sources • Belt drives • Rack and pinion drives •Friction drives • Leadscrews • Linear electric motors "...screw your courage to the sticking-place, And we'll not fail" Shakespeare 21-1 © 1994 by Alexander H. Slocum Error sources: • There are five principal error sources that affect linear actuator' performance: • Form error in the device components. • Component misalignment. • Backlash. • Friction. • Thermal effects • These systems often have long shafts (e.g., ballscrews). • One must be careful of bending frequencies being excited by rotating motors. 21-2 © 1994 by Alexander H. Slocum Belt drives • Used in printers, semiconductor automated material handling systems, robots, etc. • Timing belts will not slip. • Metal belts have greater stiffness, but stress limits life: σ = Et 2ρ • Timing belts will be the actuator of choice for low cost, low stiffness, low force linear motion until: •Linear electric motor cost comes down. • PC based control boards with self-tuning modular algorithms become more prevalent. • To prevent the belts' edges wearing on pulley flanges: • Use side rollers to guide timing belt to prevent wear caused by flanged sheaves: load Guide roller Belt 21-3 © 1994 by Alexander H. Slocum Rack and pinion drives Motor Pinion Rack • One of the least expensive methods of generating linear motion from rotary motion. • Racks can be placed end to end for as great a distance as one can provide a secure base on which to bolt them.

DESIGN AND ANALYSIS OF A MECHANICAL DRIVELINE WITH GENERATOR FOR AN ATMOSPHERIC ENERGY HARVESTER A Thesis Presented to the Graduate School of Clemson University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Science Mechanical Engineering by Sneha Ganesh December 2017 Accepted by: Dr. John Wagner, Committee Chair Dr. Yue (Sophie) Wang Dr. Todd Schweisinger ABSTRACT The advent of renewable energy as a primary power source for microelectronic devices has motivated research within the energy harvesting community over the past decade. Compact, self-contained, portable energy harvesters can be applied to wireless sensor networks, Internet of Things (IoT) smart appliances, and a multitude of standalone equipment; replacing batteries and improving the operational life of such systems. Atmospheric changes influenced by cyclical temporal variations offer an abundance of harvestable thermal energy. However, the low conversion efficiency of a common thermoelectric device does not tend to be practical for microcircuit operations. One solution may lie in a novel electromechanical power transformer integrated with a thermodynamic based phase change material to create a temperature/pressure energy harvester.
