ME 320 HW #5 Lecture 15 through 18 1. Consider the following four-bar mechanism for guiding a bucket fixed to the coupler link from the position 1 to the position 2. The position loop equation was used to solve the coupler and follower rotation angles, j and j, at the position 2 of the bucket when the crank rotates CW of j=-12o. o o -77.4954 16.8609 j j = = (1) Validate the coupler (j) and follower rotation (j) angles from the schematics provided below. You can show those angles in the diagram below. (2) Calculate the crank torque Tao needed for statically balancing the external force of Fp=(0, -300N) applied at P1 in bucket position 1 and at P2 in the bucket position 2. Note that j=j=j= at the initial position 1 and for the position 2 you need to use j and j values provided above for j=-12o. You can use the portion of the program Statics_StampingMachine_Lec15.m posted under Lecture 15 to calculate crank torques. • Submit your Matlab code for calculating torques (No code is needed for plotting four bar linkages and calculation of j and j): Crank torque Ta0 for Fp1 at position 1 Crank torque Ta0 for Fp2 at position 2 Bucket Pos 1 Bucket Pos 2 Fp1=(0,-300)N Fp2=(0,-300)N -12 deg Ta0 (Watt II mechanism) 2.
