Analysis of Design Parameters of a Novel Modified Reciprocating Mechanism

Analysis of Design Parameters of a Novel Modified Reciprocating Mechanism

In this study, displacement, velocity and acceleration equations were obtained for the mechanism created by modifying the long-stroke reciprocating mechanism. Thus, a novel mechanism has been created. In addition, the effects of the design parameters were examined and the results obtained were compared with the conventional crank-connecting rod mechanism. While the crank radius (r) and connecting rod length (L), which are the main design parameters of the conventional crank-connecting rod mechanism, are fixed, the design parameters of the novel mechanism are changed and the effects of these design parameters on the velocity and acceleration characteristics are examined. For the novel mechanism, the ratio of the inner gear radius to the pinion gear radius (r2/r1=k) and the ratio of the output gear radius to the pinion gear radius (r0/r1=m) are determined as the basic design parameters. Accordingly, by decreasing k and increasing m, it was seen that the connecting rod angle, mean piston velocity, and mean piston acceleration were decreased. The correct choice of k and m shows that the novel mecha-nism can be made more advantageous compared to the conventional crank-connecting rod mechanism. The results are predicted to be promising for engine designers.
