THREAD PROFILES
Aim: To draw the various thread profiles with appropriate proportions using CATIA
software.
System Configuration:
Commands Used:
Theory:
V-Thread: This thread profile has a larger contact area, providing more frictional
resistance to motion. Hence, it is used where effective positioning is required. It is also
used in brass pipe work.
British Standard Whitworth (BSW) Thread: This thread form is adopted in Britain in
inch units. The profile has rounded ends, making it less liable to damage than sharp
V-thread.
Buttress Thread: This thread is a combination of V-and square threads. It exhibits the
advantages of square thread, like the ability to transmit power and low frictional
resistance, with the strength of the V-thread. It is used where power transmission
takes place in one direction only such as screw press, quick acting carpenter’s vice,
etc.
Square Thread: Square thread is an ideal thread form for power transmission. In this,
as the thread flank is at right angle to the axis, the normal force between the threads,
acts parallel to the axis, with zero radial component. This enables the nut to transmit
very high pressures, as in the case of a screw jack and other similar applications.
ACME Thread: It is a modified form of square thread. It is much stronger than square
thread because of the wider base and it is easy to cut. The inclined sides of the thread
facilitate quick and easy engagement and disengagement as for example, the split nut
with the lead screw of a lathe.
Worm Thread: Worm thread is similar to the ACME thread, but is deeper. It is used on
shafts to carry power to worm wheels.

System Configuration:
Commands Used:
Theory:
A bolt and nut in combination is a fastening device used to hold two parts together.
The body of the bolt, called shank is cylindrical in form, the head; square or hexagonal
in shape, is formed by forging. Screw threads are cut on the other end of the shank.
Nuts in general are square or hexagonal in shape. The nuts with internal threads
engage with the corresponding size of the external threads of the bolt. However, there
are other forms of nuts used to suit specific requirements. For nuts, hexagonal shape
is preferred to the square one, as it is easy to tighten even in a limited space. This is
because, with only one-sixth of a turn, the spanner can be re-introduced in the same
position. However, square nuts are used when frequent loosening and tightening is
required, for example on job holding devices like vices, tool posts in machines, etc. The
sharp corners on the head of bolts and nuts are removed by chamfering.

FLANGED COUPLING
Aim: To draw the flanged coupling using appropriate proportions by CATIA software.
System Configuration:
Commands Used:
Theory:
Shaft couplings are used to join or connect two shafts in such a way that when both
the shafts rotate, they act as one unit and transmit power from one shaft to the other.
Flanged couplings are the standard forms of couplings, most extensively used. In a
flanged coupling, flanges are either fitted or provided at the ends of shafts. The flanges
are fastened together by means of a number of bolts and nuts. The number and size of
the bolts depend upon the power to be transmitted and hence, the shaft diameter.

RIVETTED JOINT
Aim: To draw the double riveted double strap chain butt joint using appropriate
proportions by CATIA software.
System Configuration:
Commands Used:
Theory:
Riveted joints are permanent fastenings and riveting is one of the commonly used
method of producing rigid and permanent joints. Manufacture of boilers, storage
tanks, etc., involve joining of steel sheets, by means of riveted joints. A rivet is a round
rod of circular cross-section. It consists of two parts, viz., head and shank shown in
figure. Riveting is the process of forming a riveted joint. For this, a rivet is first placed
in the hole drilled through the two parts to be joined. Then the shank end is made into
a rivet head by applying pressure, when it is either in cold or hot condition. Pressure
may be applied to form the second rivet head, either by direct hammering or through
hydraulic or pneumatic means. While forming the rivet head, the shank will bulge
uniformly. Hence, a certain amount of clearance between the hole and shank must be
provided before riveting.

case. The bottom one; oil or scraper ring, prevents the lubricating oil from entering the
combustion chamber. The piston is connected to the small end of the connecting rod,
by means of the gudgeon or piston pin 2; the axial movement of which is prevented by
piston plugs 3.
