Square keys are used for smaller shafts and rectangular faced keys are used for shaft diameters over 6.5 in (170 mm) or when the wall thickness of the mating hub is an issue. Set screws often accompany parallel keys to lock the mating parts into place. [3] The keyway is a longitudinal slot in both the shaft and mating part.
A sleeve coupling consists of a pipe whose bore is finished to the required tolerance based on the shaft size. Based on the usage of the coupling a keyway is made in the bore in order to transmit the torque by means of the key. Two threaded holes are provided in order to lock the coupling in position.
ISO general purpose metric screw threads – Part 2: Nominal sizes for 0,2 mm, 0,25 mm and 0,35 mm fine pitch threads; nominal diameter from 1 mm to 50 mm: Active: DIN 13-3: ISO general purpose metric screw threads – Part 3: Nominal sizes for 0,5 mm fine pitch threads; nominal diameter from 3,5 mm to 90 mm: Active: DIN 13-4
25 mm to 60 mm with 5 mm steps; 60 mm to 110 mm with 10 mm steps; 110 mm to 140 mm with 15 mm steps; 140 mm to 500 mm with 20 mm steps; The standard lengths of the shafts are 5 m, 6 m and 7 m. Usually 1m to 5m is used.
For instance, a gear mounted on a shaft might use a male spline on the shaft that matches the female spline on the gear. Adjacent images in the section below show a transmission input shaft with male splines and a clutch plate with mating female splines in the center hub, where the smooth tip of the axle would be supported in a pilot bearing in ...
The first known example of a tumbler lock was found in the ruins of the Palace of Khorsabad built by king Sargon II (721–705 BC.) in Iraq. [1] Basic principles of the pin tumbler lock may date as far back as 2000 BC in Egypt; the lock consisted of a wooden post affixed to the door and a horizontal bolt that slid into the post.
A hex key (also, hex wrench, Allen key and Allen wrench or Inbus) is a simple driver for bolts or screws that have heads with internal hexagonal recesses ().. Hex keys are formed from a single piece of hard hexagonal steel rod, having blunt ends that fit snugly into similarly shaped screw sockets.
Also, there are limits on the size of internal cuts. Common internal holes can range from 0.125 to 6 in (3.2 to 152.4 mm) in diameter but it is possible to achieve a range of 0.05 to 13 in (1.3 to 330.2 mm). Surface broaches' range is usually 0.075 to 10 in (1.9 to 254.0 mm), although the feasible range is 0.02 to 20 in (0.51 to 508.00 mm).
