In this study, the effect of upper die type on the load characteristics of lower die and the wasted material was studied numerically. The open and closed types of upper die were applied for each stage and the results are analyzed using a finite element analysis method. The half of x,y plane was analyzed due to the symmetrical shape in order to reduce the analysis time. The coefficient of friction was set to Soap_Cold conditions as refer to the analysis library. It was revealed that a lot of underfill portion was observed the open type in stage 4. As a result of the maximum and minimum values of the max principal stress, closed type case much receives compressive stress about 620MPa-2019MPa. In case of open type, The load was reduced in all direction at each stage
Currently, the harvest is achieved by manpower of laborer and recently, the bulk of laborers are almost old people and women. In addition, due to the inconveniences of using harvest baskets and the percentages of labor in harvesting are high, in this research the harvest basket is designed for using in harvest. The basket is designed by consideration of the physical condition, it is analyzed about the effects of the weight and strain on the harvest basket by using the structure analysis. As a result, underside of basket occurs largest deformation. And the back of basket occurs lower deformation than underside of basket.
The adoption of scroll type air compressor is gradually increased in the automotive/residential air-conditioner and clean air compressor, and the most of critical components of the scroll are made of aluminum to reduce the friction and weight. Many studies for the surface treatment of the aluminum have been performed to reduce the friction between the components. In the preceding research, we suggested the most appropriate combination of the solid lubricant. In this study, we coated the part of fixed or orbiting scroll wrap with the solid lubricant that suggested in the preceding research, and then have performed analysis of performance characteristics for the part. As a result, we could obtain the 7.66μm of the coating thickness, Ra 0.8μm of the surface roughness and 0.088 of the friction coefficient. These represent the satisfactory capability of the suggested solid lubricant for the scroll type air compressor.
To conduct a nuclear fuel irradiation test, the inside of the nuclear fuel rod must be assembled along with the test fuel, several different parts, and sensors, and then filled with high-pressure and high-purityhelium gas. Therefore, it is necessary to develop helium gas filling techniques that can achieve exact TIG (Tungsten Inert Gas) spot welding at a pin-hole of the nuclear fuel rod to fill helium gas into the nuclear fuel test rod. However, previous apparatuses do not have repeatability for TIG spot welding as they lack an electrode position control jig to exactly fix a TIG electrode in a high-pressure chamber, and they consume a large amount of helium gas. Therefore, a TIG spot welding apparatus was developed to easily and accurately conduct TIG spot welding and significantly reduce the gas consumption. In addition, the optimum welding conditions of this welding apparatus were established through various weld tests.
The air brake chamber is needed higher sealing performance and durability for the safety and confidential operation, especially, in brake systems of commercial vehicle. For higher sealing, we applied new clamping technique differentiated methods of other global manufacturers. And we developed the power spring and spring guide made from light engineering plastic with high durability in repeated condition. We also have achieved the basic performance test like sealing test in compressed air and various environment tests in dust and salty water for new manufactured air brake chambers. As a result, the air brake chamber applied light weight and high durable power spring is satisfied all demand specification conditions for commercial vehicle
In this study variable radius pulley is proposed, and the proposal should be applied to pulley of CVT. Variable radius pulley consists of two disks and sliding pins. Phase difference of two disks make a change pitch diameter. Therefore change speed is accomplished by changing pitch diameter of pulley. In this paper simulation for slot variation of rotary disk of the variable radius pulley was performed. Softwares for simulation are Pro/Engineer5 and Hypermesh11.0. The results of simulation are appropriate to put to practical use of the variable radius pulley
