2.1. How we get into this company?
We send our application letter to MOENCO through our university by email and after 2 weeks they
told us they will accept us with warm face and good sense of humor. Next, we joined the company
and stay there for about three months.
In our four-year mechanical engineering experience, we began to realize that this world is only can go
far in innovation and creating things that uses to provide for humans best need to achieve their needs
energy is must. Especially mechanical energy. In the study of mechanical engineering many problems
are solved and if the study widens its horizon students are able to solve many problems related to
industries in the future. In our world of competition vehicles provide a best track to let everyone do
what he/she want and to win the race. We are one of the competent we prefer to win our race by
studying the track provider (vehicles) this motivation encouraged us to know more about designs of
the cars and their systems.
In Ethiopia there are many companies that relate their job in servicing of vehicles and automobiles
like Rise engineering, Nyala motors, MOENCO, National Motors, marathon motors, belayab motors.
From these companies we get the one which has many services, facilities and well-organized company
that is MOENCO branch in Adama.
Gondar University 4th year mechanical engineering student’s internship program is appropriate for
increasing student’s practical knowledge. The letters that ask for internees to do their internship
program in the MOENCO is given to us. The latter is accepted by the company HR and they allow as

In MOENCO Adama. Everything seems nice we quickly adapt the environment of the organization.
We get nice friends in there. They told us everything about the life of industry, they also advise us a
lot of things. Since they are experienced, they told us what they know without hesitation. Now we
have some knowledge about automobile & vehicle.

15
UNIVERSTIY OF GONDAR, IOT

For this week, our supervisor Ato Tadese told us to work in automobile fuel system service area. In
this class, there are different duties & task to be done. Those are: -

 servicing air cleaner

 servicing fuel tank

 servicing fuel line

 servicing gasoline engine fuel pump

 servicing carburetor

 servicing fuel filter

 Servicing transfer pump service etc. these are some of duties.


When we are dealing with automotive fuel system, we must have fundamental understanding of
engine design & operation. Fuel is a major combustion control system. The system has many major
parts such as intake manifold, fuel pump, fuel return line; fuel tank etc. the fuel tank stores the
gasoline or diesel fuel. Steel lines & rubber-hoses connect the tank to the fuel delivery parts on the
engine. One or more fuel pumps move fuel from the tank to the carburetor or fuel injection system.
One or more fuel filter removes water, dirt, & other impurities from the fuel before it enters the
engine. If the impurities mix with the fuel, they cause contamination. Contamination will be dealt with
further explanation in the next page. Another filter at the engine air inlet removes dirt from the
incoming air evaporative emission controls keep fuel vapors from escaping into the atmosphere from
the tank, the carburetor & other fuel system parts. The carburetor or fuel injection system atomizes &
vaporizes the fuel & mixes it with air in ratios that satisfy engine’s operating needs from light to full
load.
2.4. Contamination Control Procedures
 Housekeeping

 Sweep floors daily

 Clean up spills immediately

 Keep work benches uncluttered and free of debris

 Limit use of floor storage

 Oil storage and transfer

 Filter new oil

 Use drum covers

 “Kidney loop” system oil


16
UNIVERSTIY OF GONDAR, IOT

 Parts handling and storage

 Keep components packaged until ready to install

 Return parts to storage in packaging

 Clean in-process components

 Hose assembly and storage

2.5. Automotive Tire & Wheel Service


Purpose of tires
Tire is the only element that connects a vehicle with the road. The tire supports the vehicle in all
condition of load and on its proper speed. Tire is air-filled cushions that absorb most of the shocks
caused by road irregularities. The tires the road to provide good traction that enables the car to
accelerate, brake and turns without skidding.
Tire Construction
The carcass prevents the tire from stretching under the force of internal air pressure. The carcass
forms the supporting framework of the tire The tire casings, and tubeless tires, are made in about the
same way. Layers of cord, called plies, are shaped on a form and impregnated with rubber. The rubber
sidewalls and treads are then applied. They are vulcanized into places to form the completed tire. This
process molds the rubber into the desired form and gives it the proper wear characteristic and
flexibility. The tire quality mainly depends on the cord fabric strength.
Tire wear
Tire wear depends on several factors:
 Rapid tire wear can be caused by layout irregularities
 The speed any style of driving can also cause rapid tire wear
 The distribution of car’s weight on tires
Changing Tire Assembly
There are three common duties, which are to be done are: -
 changing tire assembly
 servicing tire assembly
 servicing wheel bearing.
In changing tire assembly there are three main tasks which is to be done by the mechanic i.e.
 Removing tire assembly
 installing tire assembly
 Correcting tire pressure.
When we are removing the tire, assembly there is procedures that are to be done.

 Set the parking brake

 Remove the spare tire, jack &wrench from the car


18

3. OVER ALL INTERNSHIP BENEFIT
The internship is defined as, ―work experience with clear learning objectives‖. Internship programs can
lend support to academic programs and to institutional initiatives involving student recruitment and
retention. Internship programs can assist with skill development, such as writing skills, oral
communication and computer skills, initiative, time management skills, dependability, professional
skills, interaction with others, ability to contribute, the overall quality of work and attitude. Studies have
found that internships are typically completed while a student is enrolled in other academic courses.
Enrollment in an internship course can provide students the additional benefits of earning course credit,
as they connect classroom theory to the workplace.
Our internship was: -
 A structured work experience related to our major and/or career goal
 An experience that should enhance our academic, career, and personal development
 supervised by a professional in the field
 An experience that can be one academic term (one semester term in length)
 It was unpaid
 An experience that is mutually agreed upon by us, the supervisor and/or faculty member
 Depending on the field the experience might also be called a practicum or coop
3.1. Upgrading Theoretical Knowledge
There is a slight difference between what we have learned in class and the practical work around
companies. However, having a deep knowledge about the practical work makes us more intensive for
the theoretical knowledge.

 It enhances our theoretical knowledge by integrating academic principles to practical work. Gave
us a better understanding of the concepts we learned in class. It allowed us to practice the
theories we learned.

 Theory wise we learned how to read manuals and have better understanding. It also allowed us to
have more exposure to different machine drawings and manuals.
Moreover, we have upgraded what we have learned in class. Among these are:

 All chapters we take under IC engine course

 all Chapters we take under motor vehicle course

 Thermal unite system. Like; compressor, condenser, evaporator.

1
UNIVERSTIY OF GONDAR, IOT

 Pumps. Like, hydraulic pump and vacuum pump

 About heat transfer and fins

 Mechanical power transmission (belt, gear, chain, sprocket) and so on.

3.2. Improving Our Practical Skill


The internship program develops our practical skills and improves our attitude towards knowledge
formation. We admit that practical knowledge is different from the theoretical knowledge and it was a
great opportunity to have a test of how the working world is.
We were able to learn great skills like:

 How to handle machines.

 Take down small parts of machines and repair and put them back

 The ability to work under pressure.

 Effective technical skills.

 Problem-solving skills.

 Creativity.

 Interpersonal skills.

 Verbal and written communication skills.

 Commercial awareness.

 Team working skills.

3.3. In terms of improving problem-solving capability


Problem solving skills help you to determine the source of a problem and find an effective solution.
Although problem solving is often identified as its own skill, they contribute other related skills to this
ability. Some of these key problem skills include

 Active listening

 Analysis

 Research

 Creativity

 Communication

 Dependability
2
UNIVERSTIY OF GONDAR, IOT

 Decision making

 Team building

3.4. Improving Team Playing Skills


Teamwork is defined as a series of activities where two or more people work collaboratively towards a
common aim. Team playing skills are a vital requirement to manage people in a company.
In this internship program we were working with different persons like machine operators, maintenance
planners, mechanists, managers, students and labor workers. Therefore, we are able to improve our team
playing skills and we are able to understand:
 How to develop collaboration with a group of people
 Different team playing skills such as
 Working cooperatively
 Contributing to groups with ideas, suggestions, and effort
 Communication (both giving and receiving)
 Sense of responsibility
 Healthy respect for different opinions, customs, and individual preferences
 Ability to participate in group decision-making
 Strike off the habit of complaining
 Conflict management
 The importance of team playing skills
 More people mean more efficiency:
 Quick functioning:
 Work never suffers in a team:
 Healthy competition:
 Improves employee relationships:
 Teammates gain from each other:
 Increased accountability:
Generally, this program helps us to improve our teamwork skills to work with groups in our future
workplace.

3.5. Improving Leadership Skills


Leadership skills are the tools, behaviors, and capabilities that a person needs to in order to be successful
at motivating and directing others. Yet true leadership skills involve something more; the ability to help
people grow in their own abilities. It can be said that the most successful leaders are those that drive
others to achieve their own success. We certainly know that we have grown and learned many effective
leadership skills from the internship. We understood that what skills all the people had that made them
effective leaders.
Some of those effective skills are:
 Committed to mission and vision of the organization
 Understand individual’s role
 Demonstrate integrity
 Understand how to motivate the behaviors of others
 Communicate effectively
 Willing to take risks
 Adapt Problem solving methods
3.6. Understanding about work ethics and related issues
Work ethics include not only how one feels about their job, career or vacation but also how one does
his/her job or responsibilities. This involves attitude, behavior, respect communication and interaction,
how work ethics break down to what one does or would do in particular situation. The basic goal of any
business is to make profits and the people working is organizational depends on how much he/she
contributing towards this goal of business, so employee for their personal benefits as well as mutual,
they overlook work ethics in the company. The benefit off the internship program was interesting in the
development of ethical work habit. We gain a lot of benefits from the company according to work
ethics. Some of these are;
 Punctuality
 Accountability Teamwork
 Attitude
 Organizational Skills
 Honesty
 Respect
 Loyalty

3.7. Entrepreneurship Skills


An entrepreneur is an individual who organizes, manages and operates any enterprise, specifically, a
business, usually with considerable initiative and taking on financial risk. There are many skills that
entrepreneurs develop over time, but they are a few skills that every entrepreneur must have before
opening ―the door‖ for business. Successful entrepreneurs have skill which increases productivity of the
organization products.

These skills are:


 Creativity and innovative thinking
 Self-motivation
 Time management
 Leadership ability
 Risk taker

4. Conclusion & Recommendation
4.1. Conclusion
The internship is defined as, ―work experience with clear learning objectives. Internship programs can
lend support to academic programs and to institutional initiatives involving student recruitment and
retention. Internship programs can assist with skill development, such as writing skills, oral
communication and computer skills, initiative, time management skills, dependability, professional
skills, interaction with others, ability to contribute, the overall quality of work and attitude. Studies have
found that internships are typically completed while a student is enrolled in other academic courses.
Enrollment in an internship course can provide students the additional benefits of earning course credit,
as they connect classroom theory to the workplace.

During internship period we tried to work and learn some of the duties and tasks in repair and service
shop. We have acquired adequate knowledge about the mechanics of automobile, its systems and sub-
systems in a simplified manner. We have also dealt with the essential construction and principles of
operation of various components as a part of total vehicle system. Moreover, we tried to grasp basic
knowledge and skill that are necessary and sufficient to maintain and provide service for modern
automobiles. While working with our coworkers we gained many experiences and habits like Respect for
each other, Caring for environment, Winning together, integrity without compromise and other
beneficiary habits.

UNIVERSTIY OF GONDAR, IOT

4.2. Recommendation
We recommended MOENCO to improve and soften the challenges that may be faced. Far too little
attention is paid by the company on addressing the problems. We have a lot to recommend but few of
them are only mentioned here.

The delays of hours being counted by computer, as a result the customer have to pay for the delay. The
power ranch and the sockets used must be maintained or replaced by new in order to increase the
efficiency of work. And also arc welding and MIG welding machines which are not operating should be
maintained and used as an alternative. Most Importantly the company must focus on quality work rather
than time it takes to maintain a car in giving efficiency to the workers which eliminates come back and
improve quality working. Also, we recommend that the company must give motivational speeches to the
workers for good mind set. Safety materials for all the welding types, sanding, and grinding such as
gloves, goggles and others are not enough. Otherwise, the workers that are carelessly doing their job
may face a series internal and external injury and may lose his precious life. The main issues about
washing engine by benzene and cleaning air filter by using pressurized air is also have to be addressed
well.
The rigidity of the company is not limited but extended to not to provide resource and facilities such as
library, internet access, physical fitness center and other reference materials for the intern students and
workers to progress for any type of intended project for further insight should be fulfilled.

On the other hand, neither no pocket money is given by the company nor the pocket money given by the
university to the internship students is enough. It may be difficult to survive for students from poor
background. The serious of sense of punctuality and team working in the company should be admired
and promoted for further success.

1. Background of the project


1.1. Introduction
Telescopic Transmission Jack allows you to remove, install, and transport transmissions and transfer
cases on vehicles supported by lifts. Its universal saddle plane has two adjustable arms that adjust to the
transmission weigh direction. Wide base legs with swivel casters keep the jack stable, steady and easy to
maneuver.[3]
Transmission jacks lift, lower, and position a transmission to safely and easily remove, repair, or install
it. They have an adjustable head for aligning with transmission bolts patterns and pins. These heavy-
duty jacks have casters for mobility and straps or chains to secure equipment when moving.[3]
1.2. Background
A jack is a mechanical lifting device used to apply great forces or lift heavy loads. A mechanical jack
employs a screw thread for lifting heavy equipment. A hydraulic jack uses hydraulic power. The most
common form is a car jack, floor jack or garage jack, which lifts vehicles so that maintenance can be
performed. Jacks are usually rated for a maximum lifting capacity (for example, 1.5 tons or 3 tons).
Industrial jacks can be rated for many tons of load. Before the invention of weight lifting device such as
screw jack, hydraulic jack, crane, etc., the early man applies a crude way of lifting objects to great
heights through the use of ropes and rollers, which was mostly applied in the construction area, where, it
was used to raise mortar (cement, sand & water). In 1838 William Joseph Curtis filed a British patent for
a hydraulic jack. In 1851, inventor Richard Dudgeon was granted a patent for a "portable hydraulic
press" – the hydraulic jack, a jack which proved to be vastly superior to the screw jacks in use at the
time.[4]
Hydraulic jacks are typically used for shop work, rather than as an emergency jack to be carried with the
vehicle. Use of jacks not designed for a specific vehicle requires more than the usual care in selecting
ground conditions, the jacking point on a vehicle, and to ensure stability when the jack is extended.
Hydraulic jacks are often used to lift elevators in low and medium rise buildings.[5]
After the industrial revolution, with the advent of Machine, the Machine Shop was also faced
with the challenge of load lifting, because of the bulkiness of some Machine parts. The Machine
Shop deals with various components made of metal, rubber, ceramics, polymers, etc., assembled
mechanically to move people and goods from one place to the other. Because of the interface
between the Machine and human lives, there is need for standardization of its component parts to
improve its performance and efficiency and to reduce failure.[5]

1.3. Problem Statement


In Adama MOENCO (Motor and Engineering Company) during a service. time and energy consumption
are occurring in the company by means of all worker in that area leave their works to lift up or down the
transmission (gear box) from the car engine to change a clutch disk, and also it hazards for safety. But
all of these things happen under hydraulic telescopic transmission jack device with the help little unsafe
support to the transmission to put on it. This able to affect the company productivity level and workers
safety condition. To overcome the above problem, we design clamp for the hydraulic telescopic
transmission jack.

1.4. Justification
Clamp for hydraulic telescopic transmission jack is an important piece of machinery that can be very
useful in any modern mechanical workshops because it can facilitate the easy, safe and efficient work.
This is significant because: -
I. It uses more man power (labor force): most of time it takes more than two individuals to
perform this work and this kind of work process is not economical at all.
II. It is quit risk full to the mechanic: during the disassembly of gearbox there is high risk that
the gear box may fail on the mechanic leg and can cause different accidents.
III. The time lapse wasted during oil exchange: this especially happens on C-type and D-type
service of vehicles where the clutch is changed and gearbox maintenance. doing this
operation old way can take a long time.
IV. Damage on the part: the gearbox can be damaged due to unsafe disassembly and
installation.
V. It highly affects the profile of the company: if the company does not have good safety on
work area because of this problem the workers will not have good working condition and
affect their safety.

2. Literature Review
An inbuilt lifting and safety arrangements for a Four-Wheeler with a hydraulic cylinder jack system is
attached to automobile vehicle on front and rear part of the chassis. During puncture or some repairs
without lifting externally drop the hydraulic cylinder jack with a single button. For heavy vehicles like
truck, lorry etc., [6]

Hydraulic cylinder jacks are versatile because their horizontal position makes it possible to place them
in tight spots and provides good leverage. Hydraulic cylinder jacks have proven useful in search and
rescue missions following earthquake damage. As a result, Hydraulic cylinder jacks are standard
equipment in firehouses and for search and rescue teams. They are also used for elevating, thrusting,
weighing, or forcing requirements. The base of bottle jacks is welded for strength. All models of bottle
jacks are capable of working in erect, angled, or horizontal positions. JACKS became popular in the
early 1900s when the automobile industry began to take off. Also called hand jacks, bottle jacks
provided an easy way for an individual to lift up a vehicle for roadside inspection or service and now a
day in large company jacks are used for lift up and down transmission from the car. Generally, jacks are
weight to offer a lifting capability ranging from one hundred to several tons. Bottle jacks feature a
vertical shaft, which supports a platform (called a bearing pad) that directly bears the weight of the
object as it is lifted. Although they are most commonly used in the automobile industry (1.5-to-5-ton)
jacks are frequently used to lift cars), bottle or cylindrical jacks have other uses as well. In the medical
industry they can be used in hydraulic stretchers and patient lifts.[6]

Hydraulic jack works on the principle of ―Pascal ‘s law. When the handle is operated, the
plunger reciprocates then the oil from the reservoir is sucked into the plunger cylinder during
upward stroke of the plunger through the suction valve. The oil in the plunger cylinder is
delivered into the ram cylinder during the downward stroke of the plunger through the delivery
valve. This pressurized oil lifts the load up, which is placed on top plate of the ram. After the
work is completed the pressure in the ram cylinder is released by unscrewing the lowering screw
thus the pressure releases and the ram is lowered, then the oil is rushed into the reservoir.it
consists of plunger cylinder on one side and ram cylinder on the other side. These two cylinders
are mounted on base which is made of mild steel. Plunger cylinder consists of plunger which is

13
UNIVERSTIY OF GONDAR, IOT

used to build up the pressure by operating the handle. Plunger cylinder consists of two non-returns
valves i.e., one for suction and other for delivery. Ram cylinder consists of ram which lifts the
load. The ram cylinder connected to delivery valve of plunger cylinder. It is also consisting of
lowering screw this is nothing but a hand operated valve used for releasing the pressure in the
ram cylinder for get down the load. This project will build a prototype of hydraulic telescopic
transmission jack with for the maximum load (rated load) of 1000 Lbs. (1,000,000 kg) lifting capacity
that could be used in lifting. [5]

The advent of the industrial evolution which saw the major transition in history of manufacturing and
engineering process. All of this culture developed strong skill through century to ease the way of lifting
equipment had not fast progressed, although cranes, hoist and other equipment were limited use by their
default design manufactured, this created many problems to move heavy loaded material from place to
place because of the material to be moved were unable to fit with the hoist equipment. From decent
days, the hydraulic transmission telescopic jack fabricated in many loads capacity to lift, as we
discussed in the above generally about jack, we have found some gap relative to their design to lift the
load material they have lack of enough support to the material to be lifted. Now a day or currently
hydraulic telescopic transmission needs well-functioning clamp support to hold the transmission. [5]

Observation

When we were in the company, we observed different problems related to vehicle maintenance sections.
We observed that the assembling and disassembling of the transmission

Interview

From the company we have seen some problems. So, we asked different company workers that what
their main problem in vehicle maintaining process and many of them said while changing the clutch
more than four people leave their post and help to assemble the transmission and they suggested that if
the telescopic jack can grab and move the transmission. So, we are forced to design this project

Reference Used

As a reference we used from internet pdf, some text books, videos related to the assembly and
disassembly of the transmission.

3.1. General procedure in machine design


The methodologies implemented to achieve this project as follows:
i) Synthesis (Mechanisms): - select the possible mechanism or group of mechanisms which will
give the desired process.
ii) Material selection: - select the material best suited for each member of the machine.
iii) Analysis of force: - find the forces acting on each member of the machine and the energy
transmitted by each member.

15
UNIVERSTIY OF GONDAR, IOT

iv) Design of elements: - find the size of each member of the machine by considering the forces
acting on each member and the permissible stresses for the materials used.
v) Detail drawing: -A detailed drawing of each component and the assembly of the machine with
complete specification for the manufacturing processes suggested.
3.2. General design considerations
 Type of load and stresses caused by the load. The load, on the machine components, may act
in several ways due to the way the stresses are set up.
 Motion of the parts or kinematics of the machine. The successful operation of any machine
depends largely up on the simplest arrangement of parts which then gives the motion required.
 Form and size of the part. The form and size of the part are based on our judgment. The
smallest practicable cross section was used.
 Convenient and economical feature. Designing the operating feature of the machine should be
undertaken after careful study.
 Safety of the operation. Some machines are dangerous to operate especially machines which are
sped up to insure the production at maximum rate.
 The working environment.
 Total cost of the project.
 Assembling
3.3. Components of clamp
Since a project is a combination of different components & mechanisms, this clamp has its own
mechanical components. Those are:
1. Plate
2. Clamp arm
3. Clamp Bolt
4. Clamp adjuster nut
5. Adjuster leaver
6. Clamp Support

4. Modeling and System Design


4.1. General Design Considerations
4.1.1. Material selection
The plate and the clamp arms are works to ensure that the transmission is safe and has a complete rest on
it. The purpose of the plate is to support the transmission and it withstand compressive load exerted on it
by the weight of the transmission.

For this reason, grey cast iron- as a material is selected for the frame (Appendix 1). Cast iron is cheap
and it can give any complex shape without involving costly machining operations. Cast iron has higher
compressive strength compared to steel. Therefore, it is technically and economically advantageous to
use cast iron for the plate. Graphite flakes cast iron with an ultimate tensile strength of 220MPa is
considered suitable for the design of the plate and clamp arms. The graphite flakes improve the ability to
resist compressive load.

4.3. Design of Clamp arm
The purpose of the clamp arm is to hold (grab) the transmission and it withstand compressive load
exerted on it by the weight of the transmission. For this reason, we use the same material as the plate
which is Graphite flakes cast iron with an ultimate tensile strength of 220MPa.

4.4. Design of Clamp Bolt

We select Mild steel type C material to design clamp bolts because of easily workable, very hard, yet
malleable, good for construction, easy to shape and machine and very flexible and can be harden.

diameter is from the appendix A by taking standard M16 size.

From the table we take dc = 20.32mm

Nominal or major diameter of nut and bolt (d=D) = 24mm and

The number of bolts we used is 2.

Automotive Technology

The total length of bolt and thread length of bolt can be calculated as follows:

Let us take L<320mm, d<60mm

Length of threaded part from geometric analysis is;

Lt =100mm

Lunthreaded =L−Lthreaded

Lunthreaded = 320mm – 100mm

21
UNIVERSTIY OF GONDAR, IOT

Lunthreaded = 120mm

4.4.1. Stress Analysis of Bolt


F = 4905N is the total force acted in the 2 bolts. Then in single bolts can be calculated as follow:

F 4905 N
Fi= F i= =2452.2 N
n 2

Then we will calculate the stress on the bolt. Let us take standard bolt size of M24

Fi 2452.2 N 2
but since Abolt = π D i = π 24 =452.16 mm2
2
Stress on a bolt = =
A bolt 452.16 mm2 4 4

= 5.423MPa

The tensile strength of M24 bolts is σtb = 478N/mm2

Since 5.423Mpa<478MPa hence our design is safe.

4.5. Design of Clamp adjuster nut


We select Mild steel type C material to design clamp adjuster nut the same as bolt because of easily
workable, very hard, yet malleable, good for construction, easy to shape and machine and very flexible
and can be harden. And the number of nuts is equal to the number of bolts.

By reading from appendix A, we get:


 minor or core diameter of nut (dc) = 20.32mm
 effective or pitch diameter of nut (dp) = 22.051mm
 nominal or major diameter of nut and bolt (d=D) = 24.00mm
clamp adjuster nut length is 100mm from geometric analysis

4.6. Design of Adjuster leaver


The adjuster leaver is the same as a bolt which has full thread so we like to assume the adjuster leaver as
a bolt and use the same material as the clamp bolt.

In our design we select the material for the bolt is Mild steel type A. So, σ tb = 478N/mm2 the core
diameter is from the appendix A by taking standard M16 size.

From the table we take dc = 20.32mm

Nominal or major diameter of nut and bolt (d=D) = 24mm and the number of adjuster leaver we used are
2.

22
UNIVERSTIY OF GONDAR, IOT

The total length of bolt and thread length of bolt can be calculated as follows:

Let us take L<130mm, d<60mm

Length of threaded part from geometric analysis is;

Lt =120mm

Lunthreaded =L−Lthreaded

Lunthreaded = 130mm – 120mm

Lunthreaded = 10mm

4.6.1. Stress Analysis of adjuster leaver


F = 4905N is the total force acted in the 2 bolts. Then in single bolts can be calculated as follow:
F 4905 N
Fi = F i= =2452.2 N
n 2

Then we will calculate the stress on the adjuster leaver. Let us take standard bolt size of M24

Fi 2452.2 N π D i2 π 24 2
Stress on adjuster leaver = = but since Abolt = = =452.16 mm2
A bolt 452.16 mm2 4 4

= 5.423MPa

The tensile strength of M24 bolts is σtb = 478N/mm2

Since 5.423Mpa<478MPa hence our design is safe.

4.7. Design of Clamp Support


The purpose of clamp support is to support and hold the plate, clamp arm, and adjuster leaver. And it has
different types of pins in order the plate move on it at a fixed pivot.

The purpose of the plate is to support the transmission and it withstand compressive load exerted on it
by the weight of the transmission. For this reason, grey cast iron as a material is selected for the frame.
Cast iron is cheap and it can give any complex shape without involving costly machining operations.
Cast iron has higher compressive strength compared to steel. Therefore, it is technically and
economically advantageous to use cast iron for the plate. Graphite flakes cast iron with an ultimate

23
UNIVERSTIY OF GONDAR, IOT

tensile strength of 220MPa is considered suitable for the design of the plate. The graphite flakes improve

4.9. Cost estimation
After careful design of the clamp, we analyze the cost of each component in order to determine the
capital needed to build the clamp. Since this clamp made of various types of metals and metal alloys, all
with different costs, we need to analyze the cost of each component individually. We consider current
market values of currency exchange in which 1 dollar is 53.43 birr. (In the volume analysis of the
components, all dimensions are in millimeter)

4.9.1. Cost of plate


The plate is made Graphite flakes cast iron which is about 1.26$ per kg. First, we need to calculate the
volume of the plate.

Volume of plate
V p=200 mm× 300 mm× 30 mm
3 3
V p=1,800,000mm =0.0018 m
m p= ρ p ×V p
kg 3
m p=2260 3
×0.0018 m where, density of graphite flake cast iron = 2260 kg/m3
m
m p=4.068 kg
Cost of plate = 4.068 kg * 1.26$/kg
= 5.12$ = 5.12 * 53.43 birr = 273.86 birr
4.9.2. Cost of clamp arm
The clamp arm is made Graphite flakes cast iron which is about 1.26$ per kg. First, we need to calculate
the volume of the plate.
Volume of clamp arm
V c =10 mm ×200 mm × 40 mm

V c =80,000mm 3=0.00008 m3
mc =ρc ×V c
kg 3
mc =2260 3
× 0.00008 m where, density of graphite flake cast iron = 2260 kg/m3
m

UNIVERSTIY OF GONDAR, IOT

mc =0.1808 kg
Since there are four clamp arms
mc =0.1808 kg × 4=0.7232 kg
Cost of clamp arm = 0.7232 kg * 1.26$/kg
= 0.91$ = 0.91 * 53.43 birr = 48.68 birr
4.9.3. Cost of support
The support is made Graphite flakes cast iron which is about 1.26$ per kg. First, we need to calculate the
volume of the support.
Volume of support
V s =50 mm ×50 mm ×200 mm

V s =500,000 mm3=0.0005 m 3
ms =ρc × V c
kg
ms =2260 3
×0.0005 m3 where, density of graphite flake cast iron = 2260 kg/m3
m
ms =1.13 kg
Cost of support = 1.13 kg * 1.26$/kg
= 1.4238$ = 1.4238 * 53.43 birr = 76.0736 birr
4.9.4. Cost of other materials
Cost of other materials like adjustable leaver, clamp bolt, clamp adjuster nut, welding, labor, and other
assistants for the design of clamp be 601.3864 birr.

Total cost of clamp(T)= cost of plate + cost of clam arm + cos of support + cost of other material

T = 273.86 birr + 48.68 birr + 76.0736 birr + 601.3864-birr T = 1000 birr

5.2. Discussion
For this internship project, we have design a clamp support for hydraulic telescopic jack for
transmission(gear box) can withstand of hold average mass transmission of 500 kg a having plate area
of 60000mm2 and clamp arm with the thickness of 2.23, made from gray cast iron which gives a better
strength to the support, and also we have selected a good material for clam bolt and adjuster nut
sufficient for holding the transmission load, we were able to get good result of different stress on the
component of the clam support of the telescopic jack. In this process we have design plate, clamp arm,
clam bolt and adjuster, adjuster arm and support. All of these components are designed by using
appropriate formulas. In order to protect failure on the pressure vessel we have selected proper material
for each of the components and also, we have checked safety of the components by comparing stress of
the component with design stress to complete our design.

6. Conclusion and recommendation


6.1. Conclusion
At the end it can be conclude that the result of this project is in accordance to its predetermined
application. The solution that we provided in this paper is one answer that we believe addresses the very
real problem we expressed in our problem statement. where the design of clamp for telescopic hydraulic
transmission jack has been studied in time consumption of the company and safety of the worker when
maintenance of service of the vehicle(transmission), this design enhances the company key role in
reducing time conception and energy loss of the worker in every station, the design of this machine is
the heart of our understanding but the availability of resource and materials to develop this machine
create difficulties. we have worked this design in slid work software relative to our time.

6.2. Recommendation
The project can be further modified by using sensors and electric devices in order to reduce the man
effort used on the object. The capacity for a process was confidential and some other information’s were
kept secret because of the company’s policy so if this data were known the project would be very
clearer. The internship time given was very short due to some factors. Also, this affected our project so if
this can be corrected in the next Bach. Most importantly the internship cost sharing was late which drown
as back in beginning aur project. Our cost is based on the manufacturer selling price.
