I am looking at designing a straight spline for the end of a torsion bar.
The equation states that the torque capacity is based on the limit of 1000 psi bearing stress.
Is the bearing stress mentioned the stress that is placed on the internal spline?
The spline on the torsion bar and the...
I am trying to figure out how to mount a bar that will dissipate the forces from a torque.
The bar will be slipped into a hollow square beam that is located 6" from the point where the torque is applied and it extends 8". There will be 3 bolts placed along the hollow square beam at 2", 4" and...
I am trying to come up with a torsion spring, but not knowing much about torsion springs I do not know if my results are very valid. I am trying to figure what diameter of wire is needed as well as how many turns are needed.
Design parameters:
k = 9314 in*lb/turn
D_m = maximum of 3 in.
The...
I'm trying utilize a torsion bar to support a load as well as facilitate a flipping motion. A similar set up of this can be seen in a product known as a flippac and to start I was trying to figure out how the torsion bar in the flippac is able to support so much load.
The dimensions of the...
