Tutorial 2
Gear Drive
1. Calculate the pitch circle diameter, the diameter of the addendum circle, and
diameter of the dedendum circle for a 20 o, full depth, involute spur gear with 18
teeth has a diametral pitch of 0.5/mm.
[ Answer : d = 36 mm, da = 40 mm, db = 31 mm]

2. Calculate the pitch circle diameter, the diameter of the addendum circle, and
diameter of the dedendum circle for a 20 o, full depth, involute spur gear with 48
teeth has a diametral pitch of 0.3/mm.
[ Answer : d = 160 mm, da = 166.7 mm, db = 151.7 mm]

3. Calculate the pitch circle diameter, the diameter of the addendum circle, and
diameter of the dedendum circle for a 14-1/2˚, full depth, involutes spur gear
with 40 teeth has a diametral pitch of 0.6/mm.
[ Answer : d = 66.7 mm, da = 70.0 mm, db = 62.8 mm]

4. Calculate the pitch diameter and the centre distance for a two mating 0.5/mm
pitch gears have 18 external and 48 internal teeth, respectively
[ Answer : d1 = 36 mm, d2 = 96 mm, C = 30 mm]

5. Calculate the pitch diameter and the centre distance for two mating 0.8/mm
pitch gears have 15 external and 60 internal teeth, respectively
[ Answer : d1 = 18.75 mm, d2 = 75 mm, C = 28.1 mm]

6. A 0.3/mm-pitch, 18-tooth pinion rotates clockwise at 1150 rpm and mates with
64-tooth gear. Determine the speed and the pitch line velocity.
[ Answer : 1 = 120.4 rad/s, 2 = 33.9 rad/s, v = 3.61 m/s]

7. A 0.8/mm-pitch, 15-tooth pinion rotates clockwise at 1725 rpm and mates with
60-tooth gear. Determine the speed and the pitch line velocity.
[ Answer : 1 = 180.6 rad/s, 2 = 45.2 rad/s, v = 1.694 m/s]

8. A gear train is shown in the diagram 1. The gear has the following properties:
t2 = 18 teeth; t3 = 72 teeth and PD = 0.4/mm; t4 = 16 teeth and PD = 0.3/mm;
and t5 = 48 teeth. Determine the velocity of gear 5, as a gear 2 drives at 1200
rpm, clockwise. Also determine the center distance between gear 2 and 5.
[ Answer : 5 = 10.47 rad/s, cw; C = 219 mm]

9. A gear train is shown in the diagram 2. The gear has the following properties:
t2 = 15 teeth; t3 = 90 teeth and PD = 16/in; t4 = 15 teeth and t5 = 75 teeth;
and t6 = 75 teeth and PD = 12/in; t7 = 15 teeth; t8 = 60 teeth and PD = 8/in.
Determine the velocity of gear 8, as a gear 2 drives at 3600 rpm, clockwise.
Also determine the center distance between gear 2 and 8. [Convert inch to mm]
[1 inch= 25.4 mm]
[ Answer : 8 = 3.14 rad/s cw, C = 456.4 mm]
