____ are timing devices
Keys
____ should fail before anything destroys the gear train, hub or shaft.
Keys
A key should fit tightly into a keyway and keyseat otherwise:
it rocks back and forth under load and damages the shaft and hub
With a Pratt and Whitney key, how much of the key sits in the keyseat of the shft?
2/3
What do the rounded ends help with on a Pratt and Whitney key?
Helps with aligning the hub and key
What would the width of a 1014 woodruff key be?
5/16”
10 x 1/32
What would the diameter of a 1014 woodruff key be?
1-3/4”
14 x 1/8
A tapered gib head key should have a taper of:
1/8” over 12”
when driving in a tapered gib head key, what should remain for extraction purposes?
a gap
much like keys, _____ are external grooves and lands that manufacturers machine on a shaft to match with internal grooves and lands in a gear, collar, sleeve, or coupling
splines
a spline allows for:
High torque transfer
parts on a spline may be: (2)
- press fit
- free to move
splines may have a helical curvature. What 3 functions do they serve when they do? (3)
- act as drivers for the component they mesh with
- allow a helical gear to slip into mesh without gear clash
- counteracts axial or end thrust
Pillow block bearings sometimes have eccentric locking collars for locating a fixed bearing on a shaft. What direction would you turn the collar to lock it in place?
In the direction the shaft is going to be turning.
a quick detachable bushing (QD) is a common tapered bushing, recognizable by:
an axial split through the barrel and flange
A split taper bushing is similar to the QD bushing, however, it has an axial split through the barrel and is:
internally and externally keyed
This type of taper bushing has set screws and a series of threaded and non threaded holes that need to be paired and lined up:
taper lock bushing
when tightening a taper lock bushing, the threads on the holes you use will be on the ____ side
sprocket/outer side
locking devices are frictional shaft-hub locking devices that use a ________ to locate and lock hubs and gears onto a shaft.
double tapered thrust ring
You should not use a locking device for ______ applications.
cast iron hub applications
Note: this is due to the amount of press fit applied to the gear or hub
