Course name: - THEORY OF MACHINES INTRODUCTION The Geneva Mechanism Translates a Continuous rotation into an intermittent rotary motion. The Rotating drive wheel has a pin that reaches into a slot of the driven wheel. The drive wheel also has a raised circular blocking disc that locks the driven wheel in position between steps.

Course name: - THEORY OF MACHINES A Geneva mechanism has been designed with six stations, as shown in Figure 9.37. The distance between the driving and driven shafts is 80 mm. The driving arm rotates at a constant rate of 80 rpm clockwise. Determine the angular velocity and acceleration of the wheel when the driving arm has rotated 15° from the position where the roller has just entered the slot. 1.Calculate Geneva Geometry2.Calculate Geneva Kinematic Properties Problem of Geneva Mechanism

Course name: - THEORY OF MACHINES 12V DC motor Purpose: A DC motor is a device to convert electrical energy input to mechanical/kinetic energy output via a simple mechanism that uses magnetic field and electricity to produce a torque. The DC motor will be connected to the Geneva drive wheel, causing it to rotate due to the torque produced in it. We can control the rotation speed of the Geneva Drive wheel by varying the supplied Voltage . Greater the voltage, greater the speed of rotation
Course name: - THEORY OF MACHINES Advantages Geneva Mechanism may be the simplest and least Expensive of all intermittent Motion Mechanisms. They come in a wide Variety of sizes , ranging from those used in instruments , to those used in machine tools to index spindle carriers weighing several tons. They have good motion curves characteristics compared to ratches, but exhibit more “jerk” or instantaneous change in acceleration , than better cam systems. Geneva Mechanisms good control of its load at all times ,since it is provided with locking ring Surfaces.
Course name: - THEORY OF MACHINES DIS ADVANTAGES The Geneva is not a versatile Mechanism. The ratio of dwell period to motion is also established Once the no of dwells per revolution has been Selected. All Geneva Acceleration Curves start with Finite Acceleration & Deceleration. This means they produce jerk.

Course name: - THEORY OF MACHINES CONCLUSION The parts namely GENEVA WHEEL , rotator and baseplate were modeled using UNIGRAPHICS-NX 9.0 cad software and subsequently CNC coding were developed manually. The parts mentioned above were fabricated using conventional , lathe , milling and drilling machines. Next stage of the process was carried out using CNC vertical machining center to achieve the near to finish dimensions and later the parts were finished using flat file and emery sheet. Finally, The parts (Geneva Wheel ,Rotator) were assembled to the baseplate using fasteners (bolt and Nut) to complete the Geneva wheel Mechanisms.
