Summary
Subject objectiv is application of the fundamentals of engineering mechanics, materials and manufacturing to the analysis, calculation and design of machine elements and mechanisms such as threaded fasteners (screws, bolts), joining components such as keys, pins, rivets, welds, adhesives, tapered rings (Federrings), press-fit connections, direct cone connection, further power transmission components such as power motion screws, various type of gears, especially spur gear train, gearing, belts, chains, shafts, splined and serrated shafts, and radial and thrust rolling bearings
Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit
The subject deals with a design and loading capacity calculations of basic machine parts. It concerns permanent and detachable joints:
- threaded connections (included motion screws)
- keys and pins
- shaped joints
- press fitted joints and friction clamps
- riveted joints
- welded joints
- bonded joints.
Then it deals with a parts and mechanisms of machine drives as are shafts, bearings, transmissions using gears, chain and belt.
