In an epicyclic gear of the 'sun and planet' type shown in fig.Q.3, the pitch circle diameter of the internally toothed ring is to be 220 mm and the module 5 mm. When the ring D is stationary, the spider A, which carries three planet wheels C of equal size, is to make one revolution in the same sense as the Sun wheel B for every five revolutions of the driving spindle carrying the sun wheel B.Determine suitable numbers of teeth for all the wheels.

Fig. shows diagrammatically a compound epicyclic gear train. Wheels A,D and E are free to rotate independently on spindle O, while B and C are compound and rotate together on spindle P,on the end of arm OP. All the teeth on different wheels have the same module. A has 12 teeth has 30 teeth and has 14 teeth cut externally. Find the number of teeth on wheels D and E which are cut internally. If the wheel A is driven clockwise at 1 r.p.s. while D is driven counter-clockwise at 5 r.p.s., determine the magnitude and direction of the angular velocities of arm OP and wheel E.
