Abstract:
The traditional fork pin which connects with
the next part in hydraulic cylinder with the help of bolt
and nut. But, main problem occurs, when motion is
transferred through the existing pin, the nut could be loose
and may get detached from the assembly. Because of this
problem, the assembly may get disassembled and may
damage to other parts. So in this review paper, our main
aim is to replace traditional nut & screw with modern fork
pin with high strength to withstand desired motions
considering sudden starting and reducing the assembly
weight and its cost. In these days some of the places, where
this fork pins are used, but it is having less strength, and
meshing problems. So having said that, with the use of
CREO modeling and ANSYs software we will carry a
throughout analysis of fork pin with its assembly of existing
design and the modified fork pin assembly analysis, mating
& meshing criterions along with comparison of results with
the practical conditions to achieve maximum strength with
minimum weight & cost.
