THE ULTIMATE COMPENDIUM OF MECHANICAL PARTS AND INGENIOUS DEVICES.

. This user-friendly, visual guide to parts and assemblies is an ideal working tool for anyone who designs, repairs, or operates machinery. Robert O. Parmley's "Machine Devices and Components: Illustrated Sourcebook" gives quick access to detailed images of hundreds of machine parts. Illustrated mechanisms include cams, gears, clutches, fasteners, housing mechanisms, and rotary and reciprocating elements. .

. The book features hundreds upon hundreds of components commonly used in home appliances, office machines, vehicles, aircraft, ships, construction, factory equipment, machine tools. The book also includes accompanying standards tables, design formulas, and classical analytical methods that provide additional help with selection and problem-solving challenges. No working engineer or technician will want to be without this amazing book..

. HUNDREDS OF DEVICES, PLUS KEY DATA AND EQUATIONS.
. Mechanisms * Machine Elements * Gearing * Assemblies * Bearings with Rolling Contact * Pipes, Fittings, and Valves * Key Equations and Charts for Designing Mechanisms. . . .

Now enhanced with 25% new material, this easily portable, applications-based manual provides a focused, quick look-up reference on hydraulics encountered in day-to-day practice. Compiles material and data from a wide range of engineering sources of interest to those who process, pump, treat, contain, and distribute water. The second edition has more illustrations, including cut-away and cross-sectional views of pipe, pumps, and other flow mechanisms; increased coverage of agri-drainage and water management issues; and an expanded look at pump designs.

THE ESSENTIAL POCKET REFERENCE FOR FIELD ENGINEERS--expanded, completely revised--and more useful than ever!

As an engineer working in the field, you cant bring along a library of technical materials for every problem that might arise. You need a compact portable reference containing the wide range of technical data necessary to conduct preliminary surveys ... solve field problems ... evaulate construction plans ... select building materials ... and deal with hundreds of other unpredictable situations.

For more than two decades, professional engineers, contractors, and project supervisors have turned to Parmleys FIELD ENGINEERS MANUAL for instant access to reliable data on hydraulics * erosion control * drainage * construction materials * welding * sewage collection * water supply and storage * fire protection * energy and fuels * geology and soils * athletic facilities and more.

Completely revised, this Third Edition includes new sections on sewage treatment, streets and roads, and rope tying, as well as expanded and updated coverage of field inspection, electricity, HVAC, surveying, drainage, safety and first aid, and much more.

Along with an attractive new layout that makes accessing information even easier, this complete working tool comes all-inclusive with over 400 illustrations, mathematical formulas, conversion tables, information on SI units, and a comprehensive cross-referenced index.

User-friendly compendium of mechanical devices.

A treasure chest of ideas and data, Robert O. Parmleys
Illustrated Sourcebook of Mechanical Components is
testimony to centuries of engineering genius that produced the components that make modern mechanical wonders possible. Designed to stimulate new ideas, this
unique, lavishly illustrated and conveniently indexed
reference shows you many designs and unique contributions hidden from technical literature for decades. This kaleidoscopic display of thousands of applications helps you find the perfect device quickly, including:

*Power transmission ù gears and gearing...chains, sprockets and ratchets...belts and belting...shafts and couplings...clutches
*Connections - seals and packings...tube and pipe connections...bushings and bearings...locking and clamping...wire and cable
*Single components - washers...retaining rings...
o-rings...grommets, spacers and inserts...balls..springs...pins...cams...threaded components
*Assemblies: fastening and joining...design hints...mechansims...linkage...fabrication tips...innovative valving...pumps...creative assemblies
Youll also find design formulas, structural data,
nomograms, charts and unusual tables rarely found in
conventional technical sources.
