Question

The epicyclic gear train consists of the sun gear A which is in mesh with the planet gear B. This gear has an inner hub C which is fixed to B and in mesh with the fixed ring gear R. If the connecting link DE pinned to B and C is rotating at \(\omega_{DE} = 18 \ rad/s\) about the pin at E, determine the angular velocities of the planet and sun gears.

Solution

Step 1 of 7)

The first step in solving 16 problem number 98 trying to solve the problem we have to refer to the textbook question: The epicyclic gear train consists of the sun gear A which is in mesh with the planet gear B. This gear has an inner hub C which is fixed to B and in mesh with the fixed ring gear R. If the connecting link DE pinned to B and C is rotating at \(\omega_{DE} = 18 \ rad/s\) about the pin at E, determine the angular velocities of the planet and sun gears.
From the textbook chapter Planar Kinematics of a Rigid Body you will find a few key concepts needed to solve this.
