Select a chain drive for an elevator shaft that operates at 25 RPM and requires 32 HP. While the elevator runs on an average of around 16 hours a day, the input power is supplied by an electric motor at 75 rpm. Consider moderate shock loads and moderately dirty conditions. Use the ANSI quick selection chart for chain selection


Please refer a chain manufacturer's catalog for exact product details.

Q1 A belt drive and pulley arrangement is designed to transmit 75 kW of power at 1200 rpm, generated by a six-pole squirrel-cage induction motor. The belt connects two shafts 3 m apart, with axes in the same horizontal plane. The driven shaft runs at half the angular speed of the driver and it runs a light shock machinery. As a design engineer you need to do the following; i. Design shafts suitable for this application (20 marks) ii. Select...
