kuncklejoint is used to connect two rods whose axes either coincide or intersect and lie in one plane. The knuckle joint assembly consists of Single eye, Double eye or fork and Knuckle pin. Knuckle joint is utilized to transmit axial tensile force and allows for a certain amount of angular movement between the rods around the pin's axis. Yield strength is the requirement for the selection of material for the rods because they are susceptible to tension. The pin is subjected to shear stress and bending stress. Therefore, strength is criterion for while a double eye forms at the other end. Pin holds both ends together. The ends of the rod are in the shape of octagons for grasping purpose. The pin now keeps the two eyeballs together when they are being pulled apart. This paper mainly focuses on Finite element analysis of knuckle joint with different materials using Ansys. Plain carbon steel (30C8), Gray cast iron, stainless steel and Aluminium alloy are used and analyzed for total deformation, Shear stress and Equivalent stress calculation. The main objective and goal of this project is to design and analyze the structural deformations in a Knuckle joint. Modeling of a knuckle joint is done in CATIA V5R21 and analysis is performed in ANSYS (Workbench V2022R2).
