Purging of air from 4 ram type steering gear system

 The procedure refers to purging of air from 4 ram type steering gear system:

  • Carry out the system isolation as mentioned before.
  • In case of hydraulic ram type steering gear, the casing and the sump should be maintained with 75% of its capacity.
  • Turning bar inserted in the holes of flexible coupling between motor and pump.
  • The air release purge screws on the cylinders are then opened partially. Use correct allen key.
  • The pump put on stroke by pressing the end button of the bi-directional valve.
  • The gear is slowly moved from one direction to another. Ram movement should be on both sides.
  • The level in the tank should start to fall.
  • Air free or bubble free liquid should escape through air release valves.
  • Stop pressing the end button of the bi-directional valve and stop turning the pump.
  • Switch on the breaker and Start the electric motor. Put the switch on local.
  • Under local control, use bi directional valve to move the gear should be moved from one side to another.
  • The air release on the cylinders is noted and the gear is slowly moved from one direction to another.
  • The travel of the rams should be gradually increased, until air free oil is discharged.
  • Pumps are changed over by change over switch.
  • Ram movement is continued, first with one pump and then with other pump.
  • Air release valves are checked periodically to ensure that air has been released.
  • Tighten the air release purge screws.
  • The system is cross checked by giving various helm movements from bridge and from steering flat.

    Located in Hatfield, Pennsylvania, we focus on high-precision, high-volume plastic part manufacturing. While plastic injection molders will assist you to decide the dimensions of the machine wanted to get one of the best result, a project designer or engineer will get a great estimate primarily based on some fundamental info. By figuring out roughly what dimension machine will be required, have the ability to|you probably can} higher supply a plastic injection molder that can meet your needs. Leadway cake injection molding machine attends Chinaplas 2019 , our sales space No HALL 12.1 C21.

Differences between MC/MC-C and ME/ME-C engines

The electrohydraulic control mechanisms of the ME engine replace the following components of the conventional MC engine: Chain drive for camshaft Camshaft with fuel cams, exhaust cams and indicator cams Fuel pump actuating gear, including roller guides and reversing mechanism Conventional fuel pressure booster and VIT system Exhaust valve actuating gear and roller guides Engine driven starting air distributor Electronic governor with actuator Regulating shaft Engine side control console Mechanical cylinder lubricators. The Engine Control System of the ME engine comprises: Control units Hydraulic power supply unit Hydraulic cylinder units, including: Electronically controlled fuel injection, and Electronically controlled exhaust valve activation Electronically controlled starting air valves Electronically controlled auxiliary blowers Integrated electronic governor functions Tacho system Electronically controlled Alpha lubricators

Why is a man hole door elliptical in shape?

Any opening in a pressure vessel is kept to a minimum and for a man entry an elliptical hole  is lesser in size than the corresponding circular hole. More over it is prime concern to have a  smoothed generous radius at the corners to eliminate stress concentration. Hence other  geometrical shapes like rectangle and square are ruled out.  To compensate for the loss of material in the shell due to opening, a doubler ring has to be  provided around the opening. The thickness of the ring depends on the axis length along the  dirrection in which the stresses are maximum and the thickness of the shell. It is important to  align the minor axis along the length of the vessel, as the stress in this direction is  maximum. Longitudinal stress: Pd/2t where P= pressure inside the vessel, d= diameter of the arc, t=  thickness of the shell plating  Circumferential stress: Pd/4t  More over a considerable material and weight saving is achieved as minor is along the  direction of maximum stress.

Shell Expansion Plan

It is a two dimensional drawing of a three dimensional surface of the ship’s hull form. This plan is very useful for the following information:It is used for marking the location of a hull Damage on this plan by identifying the strake number , letter and frame number so that the exact location of the damage and also suggested repairs are marked in a localised copy. The shell expansion can be used for finding areas of painting surfaces such as topside, boot topping and bottom areas by applying Simpsons rules directly.  In the shell expansion the vertical scale used is different from the horizontal scale and a suitable adjustment has to be made when calculating areas. This becomes useful in solving disputes concerning areas of preparation and painting. It gives information on the thickness of the original strake which is indicated by the number in the circle shown in the strake.  The quality of steel used is also shown by letters A,B,D E and AH, BH,DH, EH.
