Design Procedure - Knuckle Joint

The document outlines the design procedure for a knuckle joint, including considerations to avoid stress concentration and ensure uniform load distribution. It then provides 8 steps to check for different failure modes, such as failure of the rod end in tension, pin in double shear, single eye in tension, shear, and crushing. Standard relations are given for diameters and thicknesses, with the induced stress checked against permissible limits in each case.

Knuckle Joint

Design Procedure
Consideration:
• No stress concentration.
• Load is uniformly distributed.

1. Failure of rod end in tension


P = stress . Area
π
P =σt . d2
4

The diameter ‘d’ of rod is determined

2. Failure of pin double shear


P= stress. Area
π
P=τ. d12 . 2
4

Find the diameter ‘d1’

Standard Relations:
d = d1 = selecting higher, d2= 2d, d3=1.5d,
t = 1.25d, t1 = 0.75d, t2 = 0.5d

3. Failure of single eye in tension


P= stress . Area

P = σt . (d2 − d1 ). 𝑡

Check the induced stress with permissible limit


The induced stress should be less than permissible stress.

4. Failure of single eye in shear


P= stress . Area

P = τ . (d2 − d1 ). 𝑡
Check the induced stress with permissible limit
5. Failure of single eye in crushing
P= stress . Area
P = σcr . d1 . t
Check the induced stress with permissible limit

6. Failure of forked end (double eye) in tension


P= stress . Area
P =σ . (d2 − d1 ). t1 .2
Check the induced stress with permissible limit

7. Failure in forked end in double shear


P= stress . Area
P = τ (d2 − d1 ) . t1 . 2
Check the induced stress with permissible limit

8. Failure of forked end in crushing


P= stress . Area

P = σcr . d1 . t1 . 2
Check the induced stress with permissible
limit

Standard Value:
d2 = 2 d3 = 1.5d

t = 1.25d, t1 = 0.75d , t2 = 0.5d
