Question

Homework Week #5 In solidworks, create the split hub clamp part shown on the following page. All dimensions are in inches. Two of these parts are joined with a pair of socket head cap screws and are used to clamp on an axle or other round stock to pin it in place. Notice that the part contains one threaded hole and one clearance hole. Notice also that the drawing shown lacks specifications for the threaded hole and the clearance hole, you will have to add these to fit a suitable screw. Create a detailed three view drawing for the part, with all dimensions and notes required to make it. Create an assembly model for the complete clamp assembly as shown. Suitable socket head cap screw solidworks models are available from the McMaster-Carr website. Pick one that will work and add it to your model. Make a simple assembly drawing like the one shown, including the two clamp halves and the two screws. Upload two files to the dropbox: • Edrawing or .pdf of individual clamp part • Edrawing or .pdf of assembly
