The epicyclic gear train table method is a systematic way to solve these problems.

Here's how to set it up:

Given:

  • Fixed internal gear B: NB=92N_B = 92 teeth. Speed ωB=0\omega_B = 0 rpm.
  • Wheel C: NC=25N_C = 25 teeth.
  • Wheel D: ND=15N_D = 15 teeth. (Compounded with C)
  • Wheel E: NE=52N_E = 52 teeth.
  • Arm A: Speed ωA=130\omega_A = 130 rpm.
  1. Determine the gear ratios for relative motion.

    When the arm is fixed, consider the relative speeds:

    • Gear B (internal) drives Gear C (external). They rotate in the same direction. ωCωB=NBNC=9225\frac{\omega_C}{\omega_B} = \frac{N_B}{N_C} = \frac{92}{25}
    • Gear D (external) drives Gear E (external). They rotate in opposite directions. ωEωD=−NDNE=−1552\frac{\omega_E}{\omega_D} = -\frac{N_D}{N_E} = -\frac{15}{52}
    • Since C and D are compounded, ωC=ωD\omega_C = \omega_D. So, ωEωB=ωCωB×ωEωD=NBNC×(−NDNE)=9225×(−1552)\frac{\omega_E}{\omega_B} = \frac{\omega_C}{\omega_B} \times \frac{\omega_E}{\omega_D} = \frac{N_B}{N_C} \times \left(-\frac{N_D}{N_E}\right) = \frac{92}{25} \times \left(-\frac{15}{52}\right) ωEωB=−92×1525×52=−13801300=−6965\frac{\omega_E}{\omega_B} = -\frac{92 \times 15}{25 \times 52} = -\frac{1380}{1300} = -\frac{69}{65}
  2. Construct the epicyclic gear train table.

    Let xx be the revolutions of gear B when the arm is fixed, and yy be the revolutions of the arm.

    1. Arm fixed, Gear B rotates by +x+x0+x+x+xNBNC+x \frac{N_B}{N_C}+xNBNC+x \frac{N_B}{N_C}−xNBNCNDNE-x \frac{N_B}{N_C} \frac{N_D}{N_E}
    +x9225+x \frac{92}{25}+x9225+x \frac{92}{25}−x6965-x \frac{69}{65}
    2. Add +y+y revolutions to all components+y+y+y+y+y+y+y+y+y+y
    3. Total motion (Sum of 1 and 2)yyx+yx+yx9225+yx \frac{92}{25} + yx9225+yx \frac{92}{25} + y−x6965+y-x \frac{69}{65} + y
  3. Substitute known values into the total motion row.

    From the problem:

    • Speed of Arm A (ωA\omega_A) = 130 rpm. So, y=130y = 130.
    • Speed of Gear B (ωB\omega_B) = 0 rpm (fixed). So, x+y=0x+y = 0.

    Substitute y=130y=130 into x+y=0x+y=0:

    x+130=0x + 130 = 0 x=−130x = -130
  4. Calculate the speed of Wheel E (ωE\omega_E).

    Using the total motion for Gear E:

    ωE=−x6965+y\omega_E = -x \frac{69}{65} + y

    Substitute x=−130x = -130 and y=130y = 130:

    ωE=−(−130)6965+130\omega_E = -(-130) \frac{69}{65} + 130 ωE=130×6965+130\omega_E = 130 \times \frac{69}{65} + 130 ωE=(2×65)×6965+130\omega_E = (2 \times 65) \times \frac{69}{65} + 130 ωE=2×69+130\omega_E = 2 \times 69 + 130 ωE=138+130\omega_E = 138 + 130 ωE=268 rpm\omega_E = 268 \text{ rpm}

    The speed of wheel E is 268 rpm\text{268 rpm}.
