A lever is a rigid rod or bar used as a machine
to lift a load by applying small effort. Since the lever is frequently
subjected to loads, it is necessary to design the lever considering
maximum load and other stress factors. This software package from
WSL has provision for selecting of the cross-section of the lever
arm. The design is checked for induced stress and the safe design
is displayed on the screen. The lever design can be adjusted for width
and thickness. |
| Advantages of using this design package:
|
|
This module consists of different types
of levers that are practically used in different machines and mechanisms.
Calculation of effort required to operate/overcome
induced load.
Calculation of length of effort-arm and
load arm.
Checking design for safety at different
points.
Provision for selecting sections of the
lever arm like rectangular, elliptical or I-section.
