Torsional stress fixture design using a universal testing machine
Kučík, Jiří ; Jaroš, Jan (referee) ; Vaverka, Ondřej (advisor)
This thesis aims to design a fixture for static torque testing for the Shimadzu AGX-V2 series universal testing machine. The fixture enables the mechanical conversion of linear motion to rotational motion and the securing of samples. The design includes the method of attaching the fixture to the machine, the geometry of the tested samples, and their fixation. The introductory part of the thesis provides a brief overview of possible motion conversion methods, the standardization of torque tests, and examples of several torque testing machines. The conceptual part focuses on designing variants of the fixture. Two variants are proposed: the first based on the principle of gears and the second on the principle of cams. These are compared using the finite element method. Based on the results, the fixture with the gear mechanism is selected, capable of torquing both solid and structured samples at an assumed maximum torque of 250 Nm. In the construction part, the final design of the mechanism is carried out and then verified using the finite element method and analytical strength calculations.
