    1. Details and opinions regarding the DeWalt DC728KA Power Drill

    The DC728KA drill also features a dual speed range from 0-400/ 0-1,400 rpm; and a high performance frameless motor which provides power of 270 unit watts. The DeWalt DC728KA also includes additional features such as an LED work light to increase visibility, a 1/2" ratcheting chuck which reduces slippage, a one hour battery charger with 2 (14.4v) batteries, and a convenient carry box.

    Features

    Compact and lightweight drill size; 4.7 pounds Dual speed range from 0-400/ 0-1,400 rpm High performance frame-less motor; 270 unit watts 1/2" ratcheting chuck to reduce slippage LED work light One hour battery charger; 2 (14.4v) batteries Convenient carry box Screwdriver bit

    Specs

    Voltage: 14.4v Max Power: 270 UWO Speed Settings: 2 Max RPM: 1400 Clutch Settings: 17 Chuck Size: 1/2" Chuck Type: Plastic, single sleeve Weight: 4.7 pounds

    The Pros - Batteries generally run a long time between charges. Comfortable ergonomics around the handle, easy to hang on to. Enough power to work through materials quickly. The Cons - Batteries tend to wear out over the course of a year and not hold a charge. Replacement batteries are expensive for Dewalt tools.

    The DeWalt DC728KA is a mid-grade "heavy duty" electric drill designed for users that require a drill that can fit into tight spaces. The DC728KA features a 4.7 pound lightweight design that DeWalt claims will "help minimize user fatigue".

    3. The overall function of the power drill, the flows and the sub-functions of the overall function.

    3.1 The overall function of the power drill (fig. 2.1) The Power Drill creates a hole by mechanically displacing a volume of material from a given solid material. It does so by using electric energy and a human drive-control system.

    Input entities:

    - Of material type: the drilling device itself; the undrilled material. - Of energetic type: muscular energy; electric energy. - Of informational type: data regarding the type of material that needs to be drilled

    and the desired depth of hole; data and instructions regarding the operation of the drilling device; the starting signal.

    Output entities:

    - Of material type: drilled material; displaced material. - Of energetic type: heat and noise; heat, chemical energy. - Of informational type: the final depth of the whole.

    3.2 The function structure of the power drill (fig 2.2) The FM sub-function: Reduction of the volume of the undrilled material. Input: undrilled material, mechanical energy; Output: drilled material, displaced material.

    The FE sub-function: transformation of electrical energy into mechanical energy. Input electrical energy and connection/disconnection signals. Output mechanical energy accompanied by heat and noise.

    The FI sub-function: Conversion of the input data (readiness of the device, current hole depth, desired hole depth, undrilled material nature) into stop/start signals and output data (final depth of the hole).

    For the global function of the Power Drill, the material flow is the main flow while energetic and informational flows are secondary. Therefore, FM is the main sub-function and FE, FI are secondary sub-functions.

    4. Establishment of conceptual variants based on the requirements (Predimensioning)

    Case of variant SV1 Worm drive with fixed axes (1.1+2.1+3.1+4.1+5.1).

    i = i1,2h = i1,2 = 12 = + Z2Z1 = 25 We adopt Z1 = 1 because of radial overall size => Z2 = 25

    Presuming that the angle of fall for the worm 1 is smaller than the angle of friction (1

  • 14

    Case of variant SV2 Spur gear with fixed axes in three stages (1.2+2.2+3.2+4.2+5.1)

    i = i1,6 = i1,2 i3,4 i5,6 = 16 = (Z2Z4Z6)(Z1Z3Z5) = 25 i1,2 i3,4 i5,6 = 36i1,2 = i3,4 = i5,6 => i1,2 = i3,4 = i5,6 = 253 = 2.92

    It is impossible to have the same ratio at all stages, therefore we will try:

    i1,2 = 4i1,2 i3,4 i5,6 = 25i1,2 = i3,4 = i5,6 => i3,4 = i5,6 = 254 = 6.25 = 2.5

    1 = 83 = 105 = 10 => 2 = 284 = 256 = 25

    Direct efficiency:

    = 1,6 = (0.98)3 = . Inverse efficiency:

    inv = 6,1 = . Conclusion The three stage spur gear reducer also manages to accomplish and exceed the minimum torque increase, however it does not fulfill the auto-blocking condition and therefore a brake is needed.

    Case of variant SV3 Planetary gear with one stage (1.3+2.1+3.3+4.3+(5.1+5.2))

    i = i1,H3 = 1,3H,3 = 1,H 3,HH,H 3,H = 1,H3,H + 10 + 1 = 1 1,H3,H = 1 i0 => => 1 i0 = 25 => i0 = 24

    , i0 = i1,3H = 1,H3,H = i1,2H i2,3H = 21 32 => i0 = 31 => => 31 = 24 => Z1 = 8 and therefore Z3 = 200 Because aw1 = aw2 => rw1 + rw2 = rw3 rw2 = Z1 + Z2 = Z3 Z2 => => 8 + Z2 = 200 Z2 => 8 + 2Z2 200 = 0 => Z2 = 200 82 = 96

    Direct efficiency:

    = 1,H3 = THH,3T11,3 = THT11,3H,3 =

    THT1i1,H3 = 1 i0 011 i0 = 1 + 25 0.9711 + 25 = . !1.0291 !

    , 0 = 1,2H 2,3H = (0.985)2 = 0.97

    Inverse efficiency:

    inv = H,13 = T11,3THH,3 = T1THH,31,3 =

    T1THiH,13 = 1 i01 i0 01 = 1 + 351 + 35 0.971 = 1.0291 !. !

    Conclusion - The single planetary unit reducer also made it into the conceptual variant stage by fulfilling the required torque increase and reduction ratio. It also needs a brake to prevent reversible transmission.

    Case of variant SV4 Planetary gear with two stages (1.3+2.1+(3.3+3.3)+4.3+(5.1+5.2))

    i = i1,H2 = i1,H13 i4,H26 = 1,3H1,3 4,6H2,6 = 1,H1 3,H1H1,H1 3,H1 4,H2 6,H2H2,H2 6,H2 = 1,H13,H1 + 10 + 1 4,H36,H2 + 10 + 1 = 1 1,H13,H1 1 6,H26,H2 = (1 i01) (1 i02) = +25

    i01 = i02 => 1 i01 = 25 => i01 = i02 = 4 , 01 = i1,3H1 = 1,H13,H1 = i1,2H1 i2,3H1 = Z2Z1 Z3Z2 => 01 = Z3Z1

  • 17

    02 = i4,6H2 = 4,H26,H2 = i4,5H2 i5,5H2 = Z5Z4 Z6Z5 => 02 = Z6Z4

    Z6Z4 = Z3Z1 = 4 Z1 = 8 => Z3 = 32Z4 = 8 => Z6 = 32 Because aw1 = aw2 => rw1 + rw2 = rw3 rw2 = Z1 + Z2 = Z3 Z2 => => 8 + Z2 = 32 Z2 => 8 + 2Z2 32 = 0 => Z2 = 32 82 = 16, Z5 = 32 82 = 16

    Direct efficiency:

    01 = 1,3H1 = (0.985)2 = 0.97 02 = 4,6H2 = (0.985)2 = 0.97

    1,3H1 = TH1H1,3T11,3 = TH1T11,3H1,3 =

    TH1T1i1,H13 = 1 i01 0111 i01 = 1 + 4 0.9711 + 4 = . !1.0251 !

    TH2T4i4,H26 = 1 i02 02 11 i02 = 1 + 5 0.9711 + 5 = . !1.0251 !

    = 1,H2 = 1,3H1 4,6H2 = (0.9750)2 = . Inverse efficiency:

    H2,46 = T44,6TH2H2,6 = T4TH2H2,64,6 =

    T4TH2iH2,46 = 1 i021 i02 021 = 1 + 41 + 4 0.971 = 1.0251 !. !

    H1,13 = T11,3TH1H1,3 = T1TH1H1,31,3 =

    T1TH1iH1,13 = 1 i011 i01 011 = 1 + 51 + 5 0.971 = 1.0251 !. !

    inv = H2,1 = H2,46 H1,13 = (0.9748)2 = .

    Conclusion The two unit planetary reducer accomplishes and exceeds the imposed minimum torque and ratio. It does so with a lower efficiency, but drastically improving radial overall size in comparison to its single unit cousin. Because inv>0 the autoblocking condition is not accomplished and it also needs a brake.

    Case of variant SV5 Planetary reducer with a sun gear - composed of pin coupling and cycloidal gear pair with rollers (1.3+2.2+3.3+4.3+5.1)

    i = iH,13 = H,41,3 = H,H 3,H1,H 3,H = 0 + 11,H3,H + 1 = 11 i1,3H = 11 i0 = 25 => => i0 = 1.04

    , i0 = i1,3H = 1,H3,H = i1,2H i2,3H = (+1) + Z3Z2 = 32 => 32 = 1.04 => 2 = 25 => 3 = 25 1.04 = 26

    Direct efficiency:

    0 = 1,3H = 1,3H 1,3H = (0.999)2 = 0.998 = H,13 = T11,3THH,3 = T1THH,3

    1,3 =

    T1THiH,13 = 1 i01 i0 01 = 1 1.041 1.04 0.9981 = 1.0548 !. !

  • 19

    Inverse efficiency:

    inv = 1,H3 = THH,3T11,3 = THT11,3H,3 =

    THT1i1,H3 = 1 i0 011 i0 = 1 1.03 0.99811 1.03 = . !1.0520 !

    Conclusion this reducer achieves the imposed torque with slightly lower efficiency but with improved overall size.

    The technical characteristics of the valid solving variants from the upper part of the chart can be correlated to one or more of the evaluation criteria. Depending on the value of the technical characteristic each conceptual variant receives a mark from 1 to 10. Finally an average is made and all variants are ordered. Evaluation criterions are of equal importance.

    In order for the evaluation to be more accurate and more flexible to the different importance of the evaluation criterions, we need to establish the relative weight coefficients for each of the criterion. This is done by using the FRISCO formula and a table which identifies if one criterion is more important than another.

    For the evaluation to be complete, the first four places (in this case, still 5 solving variants) are subjected to fine evaluation by weighting the marks previously obtained at the rough evaluation stage.

    6. The conceptual solution

    As the fine evaluation indicates the conceptual variant which employs a planetary reducer with a central gear comprising of a pin coupling and a cycloid drive, is the most suitable solution for fulfilling the established requirements both quantitatively and qualitatively and for meeting the evaluation criterions with best marks in correspondence with their importance. The main advantages are:

    - Amplification of the initial torque by 33.68 times efficiency increases when the gear ratio decreases.

    - Improved axial and radial overall size. - Relatively simple fabrication technology, although it requires high precision.
