Mechanical Power-Transmission Apparatus
What Function does the clutch have on a mechanical power press?
- provides the means of transmitting the energy from the fly wheel to the crankshaft
- provides the means of transmitting energy from the crankshaft to the slide
- provides a mechanical connection between the upper and lower dies
provides the means of transmitting energy from the fly wheel to the crankshaft
what standard would be used to cite a printing press?
- 1910.217
- 1910.218
- 1910.212
- 1910.216
- none of the above
1910.212 general requirements for ALL MACHINES
Osha specifies the type of guarding method for press brakes?
T or F
False
Robotic installations not properly safeguarded are cited under 1910.212 or 5(a)(1)?
T or F
True - there are no specific robotic installation standards
No point of operation guard is installed on a power press which operates with a die opening of 3/16 in. Is this a violation?
Y or N
No - only required if 1/4” +
Which one of the following statements is incorrect?
- Presence sensing devices are restricted for use only on part revolution clutch presses
- holdout or restraint devices consist of attachments for each of the operator’s hands, which are securely anchored and adjusted to prevent the operator from reaching into the point of operation at any time.
- Pull-out devices consist of operator wristbands connected by cords and linkage to the slide or upper dis that when the die descends the operator’s hands will automatically withdrawn from the point of operation if he had not already withdrawn them.
- A moveable barrier or gate device resembles an interlocked barrier guard in appearance. It is interlocked into the pres clutch so that slide motion cannot be initiated unless the gate is closed.
- None of the above.
-Presence sensing devices are restricted for use only on part revolution clutch presses.
The only press that is restricted is a full revolution clutch press.
The foreman told the press operator to use hand feeding tools as a point of operation guard in lieu of the broken moveable barrier device. Is this substitute acceptable?
Y or N
No. The feeding tool is not a guard.
Subpart O requires that all machine operators be trained in machine operations
T or F
False - It’s not just in Subpart O
Training of maintenance personnel for mechanical power presses is the responsibility of the manufacturer of the press.
T or F
False - It’s the employer’s responsibility 217(e)(3)
It is the responsibility of the employer to establish a diesetting procedure that will ensure compliance with 1910.217d?
T or F
True - 217-d-9-i
The slower a full revolution press runs the closer the two hand trip can be located with respect to the point of operation.
T or F
True - D=63 x T
D= distance
T= time
Thus the lower the time the lower the distance
A type “B” gate, when used on a press, prevents entry only during the downstroke and must prevent access prior to die closure.
T or F
True - Type A gate stays down during upstroke and downstroke
The headstock and the tailstock centers provide supports for a workpiece on a woodworking lathe.
T or F
True
Operating treadles on woodworking machinery shall be protected against unexpected or accidental tripping
True - (treadle = foot pedal) and should be free of hazards.
1910.212 is used for citing saws used to cut meat
T or F
True - 212 is general requirements for All Machines
