The spigot of a cotter joint has a diameter D and carries a slot for cotter.

The permissible crushing stress is x times the permissible tensile stress for

the material of spigot where x > 1. The joint carries an axial load P. Which

one of the following equations will give the diameter of the spigot?

IES-9. Ans. (b)

In machinery, the general term “shaft” refers to a member, usually of circular

cross-section, which supports gears, sprockets, wheels, rotors, etc., and which is

subjected to torsion and to transverse or axial loads acting singly or in combination.

An “axle” is a non-rotating member that supports wheels, pulleys, and carries no

torque.

A “spindle” is a short shaft. Terms such as line-shaft, head-shaft, stub shaft,

transmission shaft, countershaft, and flexible shaft are names associated with

special usage.
