THREADED FASTENERS AND POWER SCREWS
SCREWS, FASTERNERS, AND THE DESIGN
OF NON PERMANENT JOINTS
Shigley: Chapter 8
Outline
I. General
a. Threaded Fasteners
• Provides clamping force
• Temporary – allows disassembly
• Examples
1. Bolt (with nut)
1 Machine screw
b. Power screws
• Transmit force
• Examples: House jack, Tensile testing machine
II. Thread Basics
a. Thread Terminology [Section 8.1]
• Pitch, p – Distance between corresponding points
• Lead, l - Advance of the screw with one revolution
• Major diameter, d (size of the thread)
• Minor (root) diameter, d1 (dr )
• Mean diameter (pitch diameter), dm
• Multiple start thread: double, triple (lead and pitch are not equal with multiple start theads)
• Class : 1 (loose fit) ( 3 (snug fit)
• Lead angle, ( tan ( =l/(( dm )
b. Fastener Threads
• Unified National
• Metric
• Coarse or Fine
• Thread Designation
Examples: 1” 8 UNC or M12X1.75 (See tables 8-1 & 8-2)
c. Power Screw Thread Forms (1/2 the included thread angle = ()
• Square ( = 0(
• Acme ( = 14.5(
• Buttress ( = 7(
d. Threaded Fastener Mechanical Advantage (1” 8 UNC)
Inclined plane ( 5.5X
Lever Arm of Wrench ( 12X
Typical Total Mech. Ad. = 50X to 100X
III. Power Screw
From a force balance on the thread:
a. Raising torque (with Thrust collar friction negligible)
[pic]
b. Lowering torque (with Thrust collar friction negligible)
[pic]
c. Thrust Collar (often required for power screws)
[pic] {often [pic] or [pic]}
d. Efficiency
[pic]
IV. Static Bolt Stresses
a. Thread loading – upper threads (nearest the bolt head) take the highest load. Top thread takes 0.38F (text). Normally, the nut is softer than the bolt to allow some minor yielding in the nut to help distribute the load on the threads.
b. Nut height (thickness)
• Nut height needs to be equal to 0.5 times the bolt diameter for full strength connection (theoretical result and assumes nut and bolt are the same material and just considers shear).
• Bolt head thickness (height) is 0.65d
• Nut is usually made of a softer material than the bolt. Standard nut height is 7/8ths of the bolt diameter. [API h=d]
• For standard hex head bolts the distance across the flats is equal to 1.5d.
V. Bolt Tightening
a. Proof load, Fp [Determined by experiment]
[pic] [[pic] in tables 8-8,9,10 and [pic] is the tensile area table 8-1,2]
b. Preload, [pic]
[pic] = 0.75 [pic] non-permanent fastener
[pic] = 0.9 [pic] (semi) permanent fastener
c. Loosening
• Self locking thread condition (TL = 0 gives):
[pic]
• Vibration is a significant factor in bolt loosening
• Lock washers usually are required
d. Bolt torque for desired preload (with standard washer)
[pic]
or [pic]
for [pic] [Good for any size and course or fine]
e. Joint separation force
See handout
VI. Separation in a Bolted Connection with an external force P
a. Bolt stiffness, kb – see handout or text pages 410 to 413
b. Member stiffness km – see handout or text pages 413-416
c. Force in the bolt, Fb
[pic] [pic]
d. Force in the member, Fm
[pic] [pic]
e. Example: km = 8 kb ; Fi = 1000 lb ; P = 1100 lb (P is the external load)
[pic]
[pic]
Note [pic] is still negative
VII. Bolt Fatigue Strength
a. See text pages 429 to 432
b. Advantages of high initial bolt tension for fatigue resistance:
• The dynamic load on the bolt is reduced because the effective area of the clamped members is larger.
• The maximum protection against external loads which can cause joint separation
• There is a maximum protection against thread loosening
