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 Tensile Stress in Eye of Knuckle Joint given Load, Outer Diameter of Eye and its Thickness?
Tensile Stress in Eye of Knuckle Joint given Load, Outer Diameter of Eye and its Thickness calculator uses Tensile Stress in Eye of Knuckle Joint = Load on Knuckle Joint/(Thickess of Eye of Knuckle Joint*(Outer Diameter of Eye of Knuckle Joint-Diameter of Knuckle Pin)) to calculate the Tensile Stress in Eye of Knuckle Joint, The Tensile stress in eye of knuckle joint given load, outer diameter of eye and its thickness is the amount of tensile stress induced into the eye of the knuckle joint which tends to fail the eye in tension. Tensile Stress in Eye of Knuckle Joint is denoted by σte symbol.
