Description
Summary:碩士 === 國立成功大學 === 機械工程研究所 === 82 === The purpose of this work is to study the effects of manufacturing errors on the geometry design and dynamic characteristics of planar conjugate cams. Positive-drive cams and conjugate cams are defined and classified first in order to clarify their differences. The traditional approach for deriving planar cams are applied to the geometry design of planar conjugate cams by modifying some parameters. Then, Taguchi method is used to the parameter design of conjugate cams, and signal- noise (SN) ratios are calculated from geometrical errors. The major factors which dominate geometrical errors are concluded,and moderate tolerances are given to the design parameters. The precision of the distance between the axes of the cam and the follower is found to be the most important factor to the assembly of conjugate cams. A simple but adequate measurement procedure is illustrated for checking the accuracy of conjugate cams with swing followers. In the range with large pressure angles, obvious fluctuation of the distance between the axes is induced by manufacturing errors. Both kineto-static and dynamic analysis methods are carried out to obtain the stress between the rollers and the cam and the required input torque. Furthermore, a generalized mass-spring-damping model is established for the dynamic analysis, and the influences of manufacturing errors on system dynamics are observed. The waviness of manufacturing errors is found to be the major factor for inducing vibrations, noises, and fatigue failures. Kineto-static analysis can not predict the occurrences of jump phenomena; on the other hand, dynamic analysis can achieve that by taking account of flexibility of cams and followers. Finally, the conjugate cam of a shuttleless weaving loom mechanism is used as an example for considering the effects of manufacturing errors on the stress and input torque. As a result, we conclude some important rules for designing planar conjugate cams with swing followers.
