Week 9 - Attachment Feature Creation (Ribs & Screw Boss) - Challenge 1
Attachment Feature Creation (Ribs & Screw Boss) - Challenge 1
Aim:To create B side feature Ribs and Screw Boss for given Drill Handle Class A Surface by considering Design Rules.
DESIGN RULE FOR RIB

DESIGN RULE FOR SCREW BOSS

General Guidelines for Bosses:
- Draft - 0.5 degrees on the walls of boss
- Thickness - Typically 40%* of the nominal wall at the base.
- Height to Diameter Ratio - 3:1
- Radii - 0.25mm maximum radii.
CLASS A SURFACE

Checking Gaps In given A Surface

TOOLING AXIS CREATION
For creating tooling axis we have to choose correct direction where the given surface can be ejected and also considering the draft angle.

EXTRUDE

SPLIT

Extruded surface is Slipt With Respect to Class A Surface as shown in below surface fig

RIB Thickness as 1mm
By Considering Design Rule
i.e. 0.4 * t
wher t = Part Thickness=2.5
0.4*2.5=1mm
i given thickness on both sides 0.5mm.

By using Boolean Operation i.e assemble the ribs are added to main part body
DRAFT
Draft is given as 0.5deg

FINAL RIB

SCREW BOSS
SKETCHES

For creating screw boss design rules are followed
here wall hole dia is taken as 3mm and wall thickness taken as dia 6mm
because the nominal wall thickness is given as 1.5mm
i.e w=0.6*t
=0.6*2.5
w=1.5 since it is circle we have to double the value finally we get 3+3=6mm for outer dia
PAD
here also Height to Diameter ration is taken in to consideration
i.e H/B<3
`H/B=3`
Where B is dia of Hole
H is height of screw boss
`H=B*3`
H=3*3
H=9mm
