Features: "Mechanical Design Handbook" is a standalone series consisting of 15 volumes and 22 chapters, covering all aspects of conventional mechanical design. The individual volumes are: "Common Design Data," "Mechanical Drawing, Limits and Fits," "Common Engineering Materials," "Connections and Fasteners," "Shafts and Connections," "Bearings," "Springs, Hoisting and Transporting Parts, Hardware," "Lubrication and Sealing," "Mechanical Transmission," "Reduction (Variable) Speeders, Motors and Electrical Appliances," "Mechanical Vibration and Frame Design," "Mechanisms," "Hydraulic Transmission," "Hydraulic Control," and "Pneumatic Transmission." This book, "Pneumatic Transmission," consists of 5 chapters. Chapter 1 introduces fundamental theories, primarily covering basic knowledge of pneumatic systems, selection and calculation of pneumatic components (such as air supply equipment, pneumatic actuators, pneumatic control components, pneumatic piping components, vacuum components, pneumatic servo/proportional control components, etc.), cylinder design calculations, and pneumatic technical standards. Chapter 2 focuses on pneumatic systems, discussing basic circuits, types, principles, and characteristics of typical application circuits, as well as common control methods and design of pneumatic systems. Chapter 3 covers maintenance and fault handling of pneumatic systems. Chapter 4 introduces domestic pneumatic component products, detailing their structures, technical parameters, and external dimensions. Chapter 5 discusses foreign pneumatic component products (e.g., FESTO, SMC), covering their structures, technical parameters, and external dimensions. This book serves as a reference tool for mechanical design personnel and related engineering technicians, and can also be used as a teaching material for students and faculty in relevant disciplines at colleges and universities.
