DEMONSTRATION AND METHOD FOR CALCULATING THE EFFICIENCY OF DIFFERENTIAL MECHANISM Assoc. Prof. Barbu PLOSCEANU, PhD, POLITEHNICA Uversty of Bucharest, Assst. Prof. Ovdu VASILE, PhD, POLITEHNICA Uversty of Bucharest, Abstract - To solve the problem of calculatg the power crculato ad effcecy, the mechacal trasmsso cycles are reform the oto of effcecy. Usg the prcple of vrtual veloctes preseted a demostrato to calculate power flux dcator. Fally, examples of the method for calculato of dfferetal type mechasms. Keywords: kematc, forces, trasfer rato. Itroducto I the case of trasmssos formed by mechasms coected seres the problem of power flux trasmsso aturally results from the put to the output, whch meas from the motor elemet (drver) to the resstat elemet (drve). For trasmssos wth coectos seres ad parallel, whch form cycles (see fg..a) the power flux trasmsso does t result a aturally way. I that case the trasmsso of power flux ca take place, by example, accordg to oe of varats outled fgure.b. I fgure s oted: MM - car eges; ML work mache; R reducer; D- dfferetal mechasm. As a cosequece such stuato oe asks whch s the power flux through trasmsso braches, how much of exteral motor power pass through each brach, whch s the torsor forces whch operates o trasmsso elemets, how oe calculates the effcecy, ad so o. For aswerg at such questos, we must make frst some reformulatos of otos we are talkg about. Sgfcat resolvg the relatoshp for calculatg the coeffcet of dstrbuto of power trasmsso dustres.

From were: M 2 ω = η2 M ω2 (2) Oe otes: - the forces trasfer rato (of torsor forces), wth υ 2 = M 2 M () -the rato of trasmsso veloctes (of torsor veloctes) wth 2 = ω ω2 (4) Wth ths otato the relato (2) ca be wrtte: υ 2 = η2 2 (5) The η 2 = υ2 2 (6) If oe eglects the effcecy ( 2 = ) υ 2 = 2 (7) Let s cosder ow, the trasmsso composed by mechasms coected seres from fgure.

As a result, for kowg whch s the put ad whch s the output (whch s the motor elemet ad whch s the drve elemet) for a compoet mechasm of a mechac trasmsso as that from fgure.b, t must be vestgated (establshed) the expoets x. Also oe asks how much of exteral power crculates through each brach, ad fal whch s the effcecy of trasmsso.. Coeffcet of power repartto. Power flux dcator Let s cosder the trasmsso from fgure 4, where s the motor elemet ad the M ω 0, ad s the drve elemet ad the M ω m 0, ad R, =,..., p, are the compoet elemets. For the establshg how much of motor power crculates through each brach we ca compare the motor power P = M ω 0 wth the power applcat to the elemet k whch s a rotato moto, Pk = M k ωk, whch belogs to compoet mechasm R m. The rato of two powers show how much of exteral motor power pass through that mechasm. Ths rato s called the coeffcet of power repartto [], [4], [5] ad oe ote: λ k = Pk Pm (4) Wth ths, for kowg f the k elemet s a motor oe or a resstat oe, we wll calculate the sg of ths rato, whch meas the dcator of power flux: xk = sgλk (5) Wth ths, t meas that we ca say whch s the sese of power flux through each mechasm, respectve through each brach of trasmsso; how much of motor power (the exteral) crculates through each brach; ad takg to accout the relato () whch s the effcecy of trasmsso. The soluto of problem the coeffcet of power repartto oe obtas applcato the prcple of vrtual veloctes (vrtual powers) to trasmsso whch the coecto let be ths a gearg couplg from elemets k ad h s chaged wth forces F ad F, ad these (the elemets) take the vrtual values ω k ad respectve ω h (fg. 4.b). For the cosdered trasmsso, the motor power s P = M ω. As a result of coecto chagg betwee elemets k ad h, the elemet h gets the agular velocty ω h, wth ukow sze ad sese. Let be tha ω wth the same sese of resstat momet M, the real sese followg to result from calculus. Therefore P = M ω. The power accordg to elemet k s Pk = Fr k ω k, ad the power accordg to elemet h s Ph = Fr h ω h. Tha, accordg to prcple of vrtual powers: P = M ω + M ω Fr ω Fr ω (6) k k + h h Fabltate s Durabltate - Fablty & Durablty o 2(6)/ 200 Edtura Academca Brâcuş, Târgu Ju, ISSN 844 640X

4. Cocluso I cocluso for calculus of the effcecy of a mechacal trasmsso wth cycles we suggest to pass the followg steps: a) the calculus of trasmttg rato veloctes, that meas fucto (2); b) the settg up of fucto wtch gves the trasfer rato of torsor forces, that x υ kh = khη kh, ad the replacg () kh wth υ kh ; c) oe calculates all coeffcets of power repartto λ k, wth relato (9); d) oe calculates the power flux dcator, that meas all x k, wth relato (5); e) oe chages the fluctuato set up at step b takg to accout that η kh = ηkh f η kh s approxmate equal to hk = f ηkh dffers very much of η hk ; η ad ηkh ηhk f) oe calculates the trasmsso effcecy wth relato (). A very smple example of mechacal trasmsso wtch geerates the pheomea of power crculato s that of a dfferetal mechasm ad prvate the plaetary mechasm[8]. Thus, the dfferetal mechasm smple aggregate relatoshp (9) wrte: 0 λd = (20) 0 where 0 s the basc gear rato, the rato of kematcal trasmsso mechasm caused dfferetal arm fxed plaet carrer. Whether the trasmsso show Fgure 5 s a key factor drvg states, led elemet, worm gear Z = 20, Z 4 = 40 ad Z 4 = 0, Z 2 = 0 ad dfferetal gear mechasm Z = 20 Z 2 = 60 ad Z 5 = 20. The mechacal effcecy of the gear torque s equal to 0.98 ad the basc mechacal effcecy (the dfferetal arm brought fxed plaet carrer) s η 2 = η0 = 0, 96. Is requred to calculate trasmsso effcecy η. Kematcal trasmsso s descrbed by the equatos: ω4 = 4ω ; ω2 = 24ω4 ; ω = 2ω2 + ( 2 ) ω wth 2 = 0 - base gear rato.
