A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

The terms pitch and lead of screw threads are often confused, and particularly in the case of multiple-threaded screws does this confusion cause difficulties. Before we therefore enter upon the subject of calculating change gears for the lathe for cutting screw threads, it may be well to make clear the real meaning of the words pitch and lead and their relation to the number of threads per inch. The pitch of a screw thread is the distance from the top of one thread to the top of the next, as shown in Fig. 1. No matter whether the screw has single, double, triple, or quadruple thread, the pitch is always the distance from the top of one thread to the top of the next. Often, though improperly, the word pitch is used in the shop to denote number of threads per inch. We hear of screws having 12 TP itch Fig. I. The Pitch of a Screw Thread pitch thread, 16 pitch thread, etc. This is not correct usage of the word pitch, and only tends to cause unnecessary confusion. The lead of a screw thread is the distance the screw will move forward in a nut if turned around one full revolution. It is clear that for a single-threaded screw the pitch and the lead are equal, as the screw would then move forward the distance from one thread to the next if turned around once. In a double-threaded screw, however, the screw will move forward two threads, or twice the pitch, so that in a double-threaded screw the lead equals twice the pitch. In a triplethreaded screw the lead equals three times the pitch, and so forth. The lead may also be denned as being the distance from center to center of the same thread, after this thread has made one turn around the screw. In the single-threaded screw the same thread is the next thread to the one first considered. In a double-threaded screw there are two threads running side by side around the screw, so that the same thread here is the second one
