General Description
The Geared Study Drive Unit, "MESE", has been designed by EDIBON to dynamic study of different gears, including a standard three shaft gear train for study, which can be modified with a simple setting to obtain a simple transmission.
For the dynamic study the transmission under study will be arranged and the motor that provides power to the input of the transmission and the dynamometer brake located at the output of the transmission to provide the braking force at the output will be activated.
The motor connected at the input of the transmission regulates the rotation speed, the dynamometer brake connected at the output of the transmission uses the electromagnetic braking effect and the hysteresis to work at a constant torque regardless the input speed and load.
The sensors, located in the motor and the dynamometer brake, measure the speed and torque of the input and output shafts and, therefore, their power. The performance and efficiency of the transmission under study will be obtained with those data.
The couplings for the transmission, motor and dynamometer brake are quick and easy, flexible clamps are used. The unit is properly ventilated to avoid overheating problems. To avoid contact with the unit in operation, it’s protected while allowing the student to observe the process.
There are other additional recommended elements (not included) in the Geared Study Drive Unit, "MESE", for the study of other gears, such as Toothed Belt Drive, "MESE/1", Round Belt Drive, "MESE/2", Chain Drive, "MESE/3" and Helical Gear Drive, "MESE/4".
Additionally, the Statics and Inertia Test Module, "MESE/SI", studies the angular acceleration and the static efficiency. The static study can be carried out thanks to a set of weights used to apply rotation forces to the shaft of an inertia flywheel included or to the gear train of the Geared Study Drive Unit, "MESE". The "MESE/SI" module includes a sensor for measuring angular acceleration. Thus, inertia is experimentally studied.
The Statics and Inertia Test Module, "MESE/SI", is an independent accessory that does not require the Geared Study Drive Unit, "MESE" to carry out the practical exercises. Although this unit would provide the three-axle gear train, to expand its functionality and increase practical possibilities.
