A power screw is 30 mm in diameter and has a thread pitch of 5 mm. Find the thread depth, the thread width, the mean and root diameters, and the lead, provided that square threads are used. Assume single threads.

Respuesta :

Answer:

thread depth = 2.5 mm

thread width = 2.5 mm

mean diameter = 27.5 mm

root diameter = 25 mm

lead of screw = 5 mm

Explanation:

given data

power screw diameter D = 30 mm

thread pitch  P = 5 mm

solution

First, we get here thread depth fr square thread

thread depth = [tex]\frac{P}{2}[/tex]   ......................1

thread depth = [tex]\frac{5}{2}[/tex]

thread depth = 2.5 mm

and

thread width for square thread

thread width = [tex]\frac{P}{2}[/tex]   ......................2

thread width = [tex]\frac{5}{2}[/tex]

thread width = 2.5 mm

and

mean diameter is

mean diameter = D - [tex]\frac{P}{2}[/tex]    ................3

mean diameter = 30 - [tex]\frac{5}{2}[/tex]

mean diameter = 27.5 mm

and

root diameter is

root diameter = D - P   ....................4

root diameter = 30 - 5

root diameter = 25 mm

and

lead of screw for single thread so n = 1

so lead of screw = 1 × 5

lead of screw = 5 mm
