Please help to improve this article by introducing more accurate quotes. (April 2015) (Learn how and when to delete this template message) Metric trapezoidal thread, TR-40×7. Male Acme thread trapezoidal thread shapes are screw thread profiles with trapezoidal contours. They are the most common forms used for lead screws (power screws). They offer high strength and ease of manufacture. They are usually located where large loads are required, such as in a visor or the lead screw of a lathe. [1] Standardized variations include multi-start threads, left threads, and self-centering wires (which are less likely to join under lateral forces). The original shape of the trapezoidal thread, and probably the most commonly found worldwide, with a thread angle of 29o, is the acme thread shape (/-kmi/ AK-me). The Acme thread was developed in 1894 as a very suitable profile for power screws that has several advantages over the square thread,[note 1] which had been the way of choice until then. It is easier to cut with single-point threading or die than the square thread is (because the shape of the thread requires a tool bit or die-tooth geometry that is not suitable for cutting). It is used better than a square thread (because wear can be compensated) and is stronger than a square thread of comparable size. Allows a smoother coupling of the half nuts on a lathe screw than a square thread. [3] Although it is one of the strongest symmetrical thread profiles, for single-direction loads, such as vises, the asymmetric buttress thread profile can withstand higher loads. The trapezoidal metric thread shape is similar to the Acme thread shape, except that the thread angle is 30o. [4] [5] [6] It is encoded by DIN 103. [7] While metric screw threads are more prevalent worldwide than imperial threads for triangular thread shapes, imperial-sized Acme threads predominate in the trapezoidal thread shape. Thread Characteristics Acme Basic Acme Thread Profile The Acme thread shape has a thread angle of 29o with a thread height half the pitch; apex (or crest) and valley (or root) are flat. This shape is easier to machine (faster cutting, longer life of the than a square thread. The shape of the tooth also has a wider base, which means it is stronger (therefore, the screw can carry a higher load) than a square thread of similar size. This thread shape also allows the use of a split nut, which can compensate for nut wear. [8] The General Purpose Acme (GP) thread line (ASME/ANSI B1.5-1997) is not designed to both the nut and bolt are ideally supported independently (the nut by a linear guide and the screw by shaft bearings). This is due to the need to avoid uncoating the thread flanks when subjected to radial loads, which would contribute substantially to frictional forces and thread wear. However, there is a centralizing Acme thread standard (also specified in ASME/ANSI B1.5-1997) that adapts to applications where threads are not radially supported, where the roots and ridges of opposite threads are designed to come into contact before the flanks do so under radial loads. This adds the requirement that the sum of the assignments (clearings) and tolerances in the main nut and bolt diameters be less than the sum of the assignments in the pitch diameters (PPs). The drawback is that for a certain amount of final play (axial cleaning due only to DP distances), tighter tolerances and a cleaner working environment are required in the application of a centralizing Acme thread. Compared to square threads, the disadvantages of the Acme thread shape are less efficient due to increased friction and some radial load on the nut (angular displacement of the square). [4] When created before 1895, Acme screw threads were designed to replace square threads and a variety of threads of other shapes used primarily for the purpose of traversing machines, tools, etc. Acme screw threads are now widely used for a variety of purposes. Long-lasting Acme threads are used for controlled movements in machine tools, test machines, sockets, aircraft fins and conveyors. Short-length threads are used in valve stems, hose connectors, pressure cylinder hoods, steering mechanisms, and camera lens movement. [9] The thread shape shown in the figure (basic ACME thread profile) is called basic. Actual thread heights on internal (nut) and outer (bolt) threads differ from P/2 by rights (or clearances): A minimum root crest space of 0.01 inches (0.25 mm) (diametric) between opposite threads with 10 tpi (threads per inch) or less, and 0.005 inches (0.13 mm) for fins. (This is also true for the smaller diameters of the Centralizing Desmator thread, though not its main diameters, where the allocation becomes less than the allocation of performance data.) A PD mapping, which makes the DP smaller than basic for GP and external Centralization Acme threads, but larger for the internal Acme Centralization thread. The net is that minimum thread heights are greater than basic for internal and external GP threads and external centralization threads, and the maximum height for Acme Centralization internal threads is shorter than basic. The maximum diameter (within tolerance) on the crest of the outer threads (called the maximum largest diameter of the outer thread) is that of the basic thread shape and is equal to the nominal diameter, D, indicated in screw designation. The minimum diameter (within tolerance) on the crest of the inner thread (called the minimum smaller diameter of the inner thread) is that of the basic thread shape and is equal to the nominal diameter minus twice the basic height of the thread (i.e. D to P). There is also a Stub Acme thread standard, identical in all respects to the one you just described, except for the basic thread height which is 0.3P.

[6] Trapezoidal threads are defined as follows according to ISO standards: T r 60 × 9 displaystyle Tr.60 times 9o, where Tr designates a trapezoidal thread, 60 is the nominal diameter in millimeters, and 9 is the pitch in millimeters. When there is no suffix it is a single startup thread. If there is a suffix, then the value after the multiplication sign is the lead and the value in parentheses is the tone. For example: T r 60 × 18 ( P 9 ) L H , Displaystyle Tr, 60 times 18 (P9)LH, would denote two beginnings, since the lead divided by the pitch is two. The LH denotes a thread from the left hand.

    Quality Procedure QP158 Thread Inspection Procedure Owner: Quality Manager Change History: See DCN for Details Rev Date DCN Number Current Revision E 2018‐0201 DCN15947 1. PURPOSE 1.1. This procedure defines the control method for thread inspection to ensure that product meets design requirements. 2. SCOPE 2.1. This procedure applies to manufactured and procured components and tooling with internal or external threads. 3. DEFINITIONS 3.1. Thread ‐ A helical structure used to convert between rotational and linear movement or force. A screw thread is a ridge wrapped as a helix around either a cylinder (a straight thread) or a cone (a tapered thread). Threads can be used as a simple machine or as a fastener. Threads can be left or right‐handed and internal or external. Thread form is the cross‐sectional form of a thread. Inch threads are typically documented by stating the diameter of the thread followed by the threads per inch, such as 3/8‐18 which is a 3/8 inch diameter thread with 18 threads per inch, or by thread angle, which is the angle between the threads. This angle determines the style or type of thread (i.e. NPT, pipe thread). Metric threads are defined by their pitch. Example: M16 x 1.25 x 30 has a pitch of 1.25 and a 16mm major diameter and a length of 30mm. 3.2. Lead Angle ‐ On the straight thread, it is the angle made by the helix of the thread at the pitch line with a plane perpendicular to the axis. Lead angle is measured in an axial plane.

Chapter 1 History of threaded pipe connections Copyright: Jacques Jumeau 1st edition 2010/04/23 Copy is allowed, provided you cite the origin: Ultimheat Museum 1 Update 2019/02/21 History of threaded pipe connections At the beginning of the 19th century, the development of pumps and steam engines posed the problem of a simple, solid, waterproof and pressure-resistant connection of metal pipes. Each manufacturer designed their own system and very soon appeared problems of compatibility and maintenance. In 1841 the English engineer and industrialist, Joseph Whitworth, of Manchester, presented to the Institute of Civil Engineers, a memoir to demonstrate the advantage of applying, for railways, navigation and manufactures, a uniform system screw threads, all over England. He gave a table summarizing the main dimensions which were quickly adopted by several companies and builders. Joseph Whitworth focused on determining the pitch, depth, and shape of screw threads to match their diameter. He endeavored to establish such proportions that, while retaining the necessary power of the nets, they present, at the same time, a great solidity, and may serve both for iron and cast iron. It was based on a 55-degree thread angle with rounded roots and crests of threads to save manufacturing tools. This form of threading, was later declined into a cylindrical female part and a conical male part with a taper angle of 1/16 (6.25%) and was then chosen as the most efficient, because it allowed to perform a Pipe sealing on a step.

The American National Standard Pipe Thread standards, often referred to as the National Pipe ThreadIng Standard (NPT), are U.S. national technical standards for screw threads used for threaded pipes and pipe fittings. They contain both narrowing and straight sets of wires for various purposes, including stiffness, pressure tight sealing or both. [1] Different types are named with symbol and full name. Examples of symbols include NPT, NPS, NPTF, NPSC, and others. MIP is an acronym for male iron pipe, and FIP is an acronym for female iron pipe.

Automated extraction techniques allow mechanical drawings to be developed directly from 3D geometric models, simplifying the process. However, some elements of design representation not easily conveyed through the model database and therefore not as easily extracted to 2D drawings. Many of these elements are notational in nature. Some examples include thread specifications, surface finishes, surface quality, and dimension tolerances. This handout will focus on the standards of annotation for fasteners, and hole callouts (local notes). Annotation standardization is provided by the ASME Y14 series of standards. These standards call for the expanded use of symbology in annotation. This is due to the international understandability of symbols. The table at right shows the current standard symbols commonly used in mechanical drawings along with the out-dated “abbreviation” form. We will discuss this topic further when covering Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerance.

    www.thread-gages.com THREAD GAUGES ISO METRIC thread gauges (2 - 200 mm) The metric thread is the most common type of thread around the world, used for joining various components. This was one of the first international stan- dards agreed when the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) was set up in 1947. The standard specifies tolerances for e.g. 4H, 5H, 6H, 6G and 7H for thread plugs (to check internal threads) and 4h, 6g, 6e, 6az, 8g, etc. for thread rings (to check external threads). Specification: Metric thread properties: Basic dimension: ISO 965 Part 1,2,3 – 1998 thread angle: 60°; Gauging practice: ISO 1502 – 1996 H = 0.866025 x P; UNIFIED thread gauges (No.4 - 8“) The UNIFIED thread has the same 60° profile as the ISO metric screw thread but the characteristic dimensions of each UTS thread (Unified Thread Stan- dard) were chosen in inch fraction rather than a round millimeter value. The UTS thread is most commonly used in USA and Canada. For thread plugs (to check internal threads) the most used tolerance classes are 1B, 2B and 3B and for thread rings (to check external threads) 1A, 2A and 3A. The tolerance class 2B/2A corresponds to medium fit and is used for general applications which require free assembly. UN thread properties: Specification: thread angle: 60°; Gauging practice: ANSI/ASME B1.2 – 1983 or B.S. 919 Part I - 2007 H = 0.866025 x P; GAS thread gauges (G1/8“ - G6“) The Gas thread (G) is a straight thread used for interconnecting pipes, also known in the trade as BSPP, NPS or G.

  • Power Screws
    Module 6 Power Screws Version 2 ME, IIT Kharagpur Lesson 1 Power Screw drives and their efficiency Version 2 ME, IIT Kharagpur Instructional Objectives At the end of this lesson, the students should be able to understand • Power screw mechanism. • The thread forms used in power screws. • Torque required to raise and lower a load in a power screw • Efficiency of a power screw and condition for self locking. 6.1.1 Introduction A power screw is a drive used in machinery to convert a rotary motion into a linear motion for power transmission. It produces uniform motion and the design of the power screw may be such that (a) Either the screw or the nut is held at rest and the other member rotates as it moves axially. A typical example of this is a screw clamp. (b) Either the screw or the nut rotates but does not move axially. A typical example for this is a press. Other applications of power screws are jack screws, lead screws of a lathe, screws for vices, presses etc. Power screw normally uses square threads but ACME or Buttress threads may also be used. Power screws should be designed for smooth and noiseless transmission of power with an ability to carry heavy loads with high efficiency. We first consider the different thread forms and their proportions: Square threads- The thread form is shown in figure-6.1.1.1. These threads have high efficiency but they are difficult to manufacture and are expensive. The proportions in terms of pitch are: h1= 0.5 p ; h2 = 0.5 p - b ; H = 0.5 p + a ; e = 0.5 p a and b are different for different series of threads.
