Application Overview
Purpose
- Use a cylinder attached to a sprocket as a take up. The force should be applied to add tension on the belt.
Target workpiece
- Shape: aluminum block
- Size: W230 x D60 x H60mm
- Weight: 1kg
Design Specifications
Operating Conditions or Design Requirements
- Outer dimensions: W979 x D380 x H683mm
- Conveyor feed speed: 100mm/s
Required Performance
- Load: 90N
Selection Criteria for Main Components
- A motor with a torque of 3.2N·m and a moment of inertia of 3.2 x 10⁻²kgm² or higher is selected.
Design Evaluation
Verification of main components
- [Selection of motor]
Mass of chain and workpiece: M = 9kg
Sprocket diameter: D = 98mm
Sprocket weight: m = 1.4kg, number of sprockets: 6, efficiency of chain and sprocket: η = 0.8, friction coefficient of sliding surface: μ = 0.3
Friction force of sliding surface: F
F = Mgμ = 9 x 9.8 x 0.3 = 26.5N
Load torque: T
T = FD/2η = 26.5 x 98 x 10⁻³/2 x 0.8 = 1.6N
If we use 2 as the safety factor, T = 1.6 x 2 = 3.2N
Moment of inertia: J
Chain and workpiece: J 1
J1 = M{πD/2π｝² = 9{π x 98 x 10⁻³/2π}² = 2.2 x 10⁻²kgm²
Sprocket: J 2
J2 = 1/8 x mD2 = 1/8 x 1.4(98 x 10⁻³)2 = 0.17 x 10⁻²kgm²
As there are 6 sprockets,
J 3 = 0.17 x 10⁻² x 6 = 1 x 10⁻²kgm²
Total: J = J 1 +J 3 = 3.2 x 10⁻²kgm²
Other Design Consideration
- The cylinder for belt tension always applies force in the belt straining direction.
- The bracket of the idler is welded with a shaft and a plate.
