Description

This UE is a central module of mechanical design technology. It allows to apply the concepts of dimensioning of standard components seen mainly in the UEs of technology in L2 (introduction to mechanical design) and L3 (structure and dimensioning, mechanical design 1 and 2) in the case of existing mechanical systems. It also indirectly calls upon all the other UEs of mechanics of the rigid and deformable solid seen mainly in L2 and L3.

Emphasis is placed on the discovery and comparison of real technological solutions, allowing to enrich the technological culture, and on the research, the critical choice and the pre-dimensioning of technological solutions compatible with the studied system starting from a specification of partial (re)design. Finally, the realization of the chosen solution is based on the sketch of a drawing in the sense of industrial design, both on paper and with the help of a CAD software with the complete dimensioning of one of the parts of the mechanism.

Objectives

  • Analyze and explain the functioning of all or part of an existing mechanism from its overall drawing and technical data,
  • Justify the choice of materials and method of production,
  • Draw the kinematic diagram of all or part of the mechanism,
  • Calculate the degree of hyperstaticity and understand the technological solutions implemented to solve it,
  • Calculate the forces in the mechanism and verify the dimensioning of a standard mechanical component from manufacturer's documentation,
  • Research and critical choice of a technological solution from reduced specifications and manufacturers' documentation. Justification, pre-dimensioning and implementation of the chosen solution in the mechanism in CAD with drawing and dimensioning,
  • Draw the assembly graph of all or part of the mechanism.
