What is a pear shaped cam?
It is a cam used in motorcycles that makes the object have wierd spin
What are the different types of cams?
pear shaped cam circle shape cam square shape cam triangle shape cam oval shaped circle cam is something that you turn in order to move the follower:)
What does the CAM stand for in CAM walker boot?
CAM stands for 'controlled ankle motion'.
What mechanical devices produce reciprocating motion from rotary motion?
It is the reciprocating motion of the pistons that is changed into rotary motion by the cam axle.
What is a device to change rotary motion into reciprocating motion?
The Cam
What is a cam mechanism?
A cam is an elliptical or tear-drop shaped form mounted to a rotating shaft. It is used to transfer rotating motion to linear motion. As the shaft rotates, the cam pushes on a rod that moves it back and forth as the rod follows the contour of the cam.
What is a eccentric cam?
An eccentric cam is a mechanical component with an off-center axis of rotation that causes the cam to impart a specified motion to a follower as it rotates. This motion can be used for various applications such as converting rotary motion to linear motion or to control the timing of valves in internal combustion engines.
Is a cam a simple machine?
No, a cam is not considered a simple machine. Simple machines are basic mechanical devices that do not have any moving parts, while a cam is a rotating or sliding component that is used to convert rotary motion into linear motion or vice versa.
How does a cam follower work?
In the context of an automobile engine the cam follower rides on the oval shaped camshaft lobe and translates the circular motion of the lobe into linear motion to operate intake and exhaust valves.
What is the difference between a cam and a pulley?
A cam is a rotating or sliding piece in machinery that is designed to make contact with another part and impart motion. A pulley, on the other hand, is a wheel with a grooved rim used to change the direction of a force or transmit power. Essentially, a cam is used to convert motion while a pulley is used to transmit motion.
How does a cam and follower gear work?
In the context of an automobile engine the cam follower rides on the oval shaped camshaft lobe and translates the circular motion of the lobe into linear motion to operate intake and exhaust valves.
What does cam mean in dt?
"Cam" in the context of mechatronics and digital technology usually refers to a mechanism that converts rotary motion into linear motion, or vice versa. Cam mechanisms are commonly used in machines and automated systems to control the movement of components.
