Parts of the knuckle joint
A knuckle joint always has a fork end, an eye end, and a pin. Typically, these are all specially made parts although standard rod ends are sometimes used for the eye end. This has the advantage that a rod end allows some additional rotational movement perpendicular to the pin axis, providing further protection against bending stress.
Various types of pins can also be used. The most common is a special pin with a shoulder at one end and a cross hole at the other to accept a collar and split pint. For large structures, such as bridges, cold rivets were historically used. The pivot may also be bolted.
How to Calculate Diameter of Pin of Knuckle Joint given Tensile Stress in Eye?
Diameter of Pin of Knuckle Joint given Tensile Stress in Eye calculator uses Diameter of Knuckle Pin = Outer Diameter of Eye of Knuckle Joint-Load on Knuckle Joint/(Thickess of Eye of Knuckle Joint*Tensile Stress in Eye of Knuckle Joint) to calculate the Diameter of Knuckle Pin, The Diameter of pin of knuckle joint given tensile stress in eye is the diameter of the pin used in joining the eye end and the fork of a knuckle joint. Diameter of Knuckle Pin is denoted by d symbol.
