BEARINGS
- the word bearing is applied,
in general, to the surfaces of
contact between two pieces
that have relative motion,
one of which supports or
partially supports the other
RADIAL DEEP
GROOVE BALL
BEARING
ROLLER BEARING
Common roller
bearings use
cylinders of slightly
greater length than
diameter. Roller
bearings typically
have higher load
capacity than ball
bearings.
GEAR BEARING
Gear bearing is roller
bearing combining to
epicyclical gear. Each
element of it is
represented by
concentric alternation of
rollers and gearwheels
with equality of roller(s)
diameter(s) to
gearwheel(s) pitch
diameter(s)
NEEDLE ROLLER
BEARING
Bearings may be arranged, according
to the relative motions they will
allow, in three classes:

1. STRAIGHT TRANSLATION

2. ROTATION OR TURNING

3. TRANSLATION AND ROTATION


COMBINED
16. COLLARS AND KEYS
- it is very often required
that pulleys or wheels turn
freely on their cylindrical
shafts and at the same time
have no motion along them.
For this purpose, rings or
collars are used.
- when it is desirable to have
no relative motion, axially or
circumferentially, the pulley or
coupling may be fitted to the
shaft by cutting the keyway in
the shaft and the hub and fixing
two together by the key.
16. CRANKS AND LEVERS
CRANKS – may be defined
in a general way as an arm
rotating or oscillating about
an axis
LEVER – when two cranks
on the same axis are rigidly
connected to each other, the
name lever is often applied
to the combination
CRANK
ANGLE BETWEEN THE TWO
ARMS is less than 90 degrees ,
it is called BELL CRANK
LEVER.

ANGLE BETWEEN THE TWO


ARMS is greater than 90
degrees, it is called ROCKER.
17. LINKAGE
- it consists of a number of
pairs of elements connected
by links
If the combination is such
that relative motion of the
links is possible, and the
motion of each piece relative
to the others is definite, the
linkage becomes a
kinematic chain.
If one of the links of a
kinematic chain is fixed, then
the chain becomes
mechanism.
