Unit 7 Flashcards

1
Q

Aligned Dimension

A

A system of dimensioning which requires all numerals, figures, and notes to be aligned with the dimension lines so that they may be read from the bottom (for horizontal dimensions) and from the right side (for vertical dimensions).

Q

Reference Dimension

A

A dimension, usually without a tolerance, used for information purposes only. A reference is a repeat of a given dimension or established from other values shown on a drawing. Reference dimensions are enclosed in ( ) on the drawing.

20
Q

Decision Matrix

A

A tool used to compare design solutions against one another, using specific criteria.

21
Q

Market Research

A

The activity of gathering information about consumers’ needs and preferences.

22
Q

Auxillary View

A

A view that is used to show features that are located on an inclined surface in true size and shape.

23
Q

Section Lines

A

Thin lines used in a section view to indicate where the cutting plane line has cut through material.

24
Q

Broken-out Section

A

A section of an object broken away to reveal an interior feature for a sectional drawing.

25
Q

Working Drawings

A

Drawings that convey all of the information needed to manufacture and assemble a design.

26
Q

Full Section

A

A sectional drawing based on a cutting plane line that extends completely through an object.

27
Q

Detail View

A

A view that is used to show a magnified view of features that are too small to adequately specify in another view.

28
Q

Part Drawing

A

A drawing that contains all the information for making one part of the design.

29
Q

Half Section

A

A sectional drawing based on a cutting plane line that cuts through one-quarter of an object. A half section reveals half of the interior and half of the exterior.

30
Q

Section View

A

A view that is used to show details not apparent on the exterior of the part.

31
Q

Cutting Plane Line

A

A line drawn on a view where a cut was made in order to define the location of the imaginary section plane.

Q

Blind Hole

A

A hole that does not go completely through the workpiece.

33
Q

Taper

A

Gradual diminution of width or thickness in an elongated object.

34
Q

Counterbore

A

A cylindrical recess around a hole, usually to receive a bolt head or nut.

35
Q

Tapped holes

A

has internal threads

36
Q

Countersink

A

A conical-shaped recess around a hole, often used to receive a tapered screw.

37
Q
