Steering Gear Mechanism


The steering gear mechanism is used for changing the direction of two or more of the wheel axles with reference to the chassis, so as to move the automobile in any desired path.

In order to avoid skidding, the two front wheels must turn about the same instantaneous center I which lies in the axis of the back wheels.

Cams and followers


A cam is a rotating machine element which gives reciprocating or oscillating motion to another element known as follower. The cam and follower have a line contact and constitute a higher pair.

Classification of CAMS
Radial or Disc Cam In radial cams, the follower reciprocates or oscillates in a direction perpendicular to the cam axis.

Cylindrical Cam
In cylindrical cams, the followers reciprocates or oscillates in a direction parallel to the cam axis.

Base Circle It is the smallest circle that can be drawn to the cam profile
Cam profile Cam shaft

26

Pitch curve
It is the curve generated by the trace point as the follower moves relative to the cam. For a knife edge follower, the pitch curve and the cam profile are same whereas for a roller follower, they are separated by the radius of the roller.

27

Pressure angle
It is the angle between the direction of the follower movement and a normal to the pitch curve. This angle is very important in designing a cam profile. If the pressure angle is too large, a reciprocating follower will jam in its bearing.

28

Pitch point It is point on the pitch curve having the maximum pressure angle

Pitch circle it is a circle drawn from the center of the cam through the pitch points.

29

Prime circle It is the smallest circle that can be drawn from the center of the cam and tangent to the pitch curve.
For a knife edge and flat face follower, the prime circle and the base circle are identical. For a roller follower the prime circle is larger than the base circle by the radius of the roller
