Insertion investigation of cylindrical parts to be assembled with clearance

Abstract

Insertion of cylindrical parts to be automatically assembled with clearance, while bush is based immobile and the peg is based mobile, is analysed in the paper. Mathematical model of cylindrical parts insertion, which determines peg contact with the chamfer of the bush, peg one point and two point contact with the bush hole, was formed. Numerical experiments of insertion of cylindrical parts to be assembled with clearance were implemented. Conditions for the shortest duration of insertion process and for the most reliable insertion process were deter-mined.
