SECTIONAL VIEWS

-

What is a sectional views:
Although it is imagined that the object is cut by an imaginary section plane its interior construction is viewed by removing the portion of the object between the observer and the section plane while retaining its other portion. Then view of the retained portion of the object exposing its interior construction along with its cut surface is called sectional view. Thus it is a view which not only shows the cut surface of the object but all other its interior details the section plane.
How to obtain a sectional view:
To obtain a sectional view of an object it should be imagined as though the object is cut by a section plan and the portion of the object between the section plane and the observer is removed as then looking in the direction normal to the section plane the view of the retained portion of the object showing all the other visible details along with the cut surface in drawn as since the process of sectioning is only imaginary all other views of the object expect the sectional view are drawn as if the object is uncut.
Types of sectional views:
·      Full sectional view
·      Half sectional view
Full sectional view:
When a section plane is passed through the central line of the object so as to it completely the resulting sectional view is called full sectional view or simply sectional view. The object is cut completely by the section plane SS passing rethought the horizontal central line of the object. The view of the cut object when looking from the front becomes the sectional view. Although it is appropriate to designate the sectional views as sectional front, sectional top , sectional profile view, the Indian standards institution recommends that should be designated by the word section followed by the letters written in capitals which are used in naming the section plane thus the sectional view of the object is called of sectional front view. 


Half sectional view:
While drawing the full sectional view of an object symmetrical about the center line there will be repetition of drafting work in showing section on either side of the center line involving a good deal of drafting time and labor in such cases it will be advantageous to draw the view of an object which shows only one half of the object in section and the other half as unsanctioned and thus save the time and labor without impairing the clarity of the drawing. A view of an object which shows one half sections and the other half as unsanctioned is called half sectional views. Since a half sectional view which only exposes the interior of the half the object and shows the exterior of the other half its usefulness is therefore limited only to symmetrical objects. It is not widely used in detail drawings because of this limitation of symmetry and also because of dimensioning internal details whose one half will be in sectioned zone and the other half will be in unsanctioned zone an half sectional view is advantageous in assembly drawing as it shows internal and external constructions in one view.

BOLTS AND NUTS

A bolt is fastening element comprising of the head at one end a threaded portion over a cylindrical shank at the other end. The parts to be fastened temporarily by bolts and nuts admit hexagonal head   and Square head  are very common. although the square shape provides a better spanner grip than the hexagon, but needs one fourth of a turn to bring it into the same position for inserting the spanner again whereas a hexagon need only one sixth of a turn and hence preferred. the bolts through the holes in them having suitable clearance. The projected threaded end of the bolt in turn now admits the washer and nut an internally threaded member, which after sufficient turn offers necessary clamping grip. Bolts and nuts of various shapes are used fir different purposes but the        Empirical Proportions of Hexagonal Head Bolt and Nut All Dimensions in mm

RIVETS AND RIVETED JOINTS

Riveted joints: In riveted joints were classified as one of the types of permanent fastenings. They are generally used to fasten metal plates and steel section in structural works such as bridge and roof trusses and in the construction of pressure vessels such as storage tanks boilers. The field of application of riveted joints has been considerably reduced by the welded joints because of the simplified process of making the welded joint comparative strength and economy. However riveted joints are very effective in designs subjected to pronounced vibration loads where welded joints are less reliable. Riveted joints may also be employed to connect metals which are difficult to weld together and in the joints which permit no heating welded due to possible tempering or warping of the finished machine parts. Rivet: A rivet is a round rod of either mild steel or nonferrous materials such as copper aluminum with a head of any one of the shapes formed at one end during its manufa

KEYS

Image
A machine derives the energy or power for its working from a prime mover. The power in the form of rotary motion is transmitted from the prime mover to the machine either by connecting the prime mover shaft directly to the machine shaft by a coupling or using intermediate machine elements such as gears or pulleys and belts or sprockets and chains. in all these cases the shaft is secured firmly to the flanges or gears or pulleys or sprockets which are mounted on it to prevent the relative rotation between the two a tight fit of the shaft in the bore will be usually insufficient to secure the shaft to the machine element which is mounted on it. Types of keys: Keys are classified into two main types (1) taper keys (2) parallel or feather keys. A tapered key is of rectangular or square section with uniform width and tapering thickness. It transmits the turning moment between the shaft and the part mounted on it without any rotational and axial motion between them a parallel key i
