Book excerpt: Excerpt from Applied Science, Incorporated With Transactions of the University of Toronto Engineering Society, Vol. 6: May to October, 1912 AS Professor Angus has pointed out in the preface and is borne out by the book itself, problems Of the first kind are those dealt with. In the first chapter the nature Of the machine is carefully examined, the Characteristics which it must possess, the relations Of different forms of the same general construction and the connec tion between such machines as the steam engine, the oscillating engine, the Whitworth quick-return motion and other mechanisms. The second and third chapters deal with the very important questions Of motion and velocity in machines. The methods of finding the velocities of different parts Of machines and Of plotting these velocities are discussed in some detail, and the application is made to the determination of piston velocities and the rates of dis charge from one, two and three throw-pumps. In chapter four is discussed a very Simple and useful method for determining velocities in the most complex machines by an easy practical construction, which is here published in detail for the first time. The method is illustrated by finding the velocity Of the valve for a given setting Of a Stephenson link and also by other problems. Chapters five, Six, and seven deal with toothed gearing. A comparison is first briefly made with other forms of gearing and then the proper form of the tooth outline is fully discussed and the two important forms, the involute and cycloidal, are investigated together with a comparison of their merits. The proportions Of the teeth are also examined from the standpoint Of motion, the strength not being considered.
