Which one of the threads is strong and frequently used for power transmission? Correct Answer Acme
Explanation:
Square thread: In this thread, the flanks are perpendicular to the axis of the thread. This is used for transmitting motion or power. E.g. Fly presses, Screw jack, vice handles, cross-slide and compound slide, etc.
Trapezoidal threads: These threads have a profile that is neither square nor V thread form and have a form of a trapezoid. Different forms of trapezoidal threads are ACME thread, Buttress thread, Saw-tooth thread, Worm thread
- ACME thread: It has an included angle of 29°. These are used in lathe lead screws. It is stronger than square threads.
- Buttress Thread: In this thread, one flank is perpendicular to the axis of the thread and the other flank is at 45°. These threads are used in the power press, carpentry vices, gun breeches, ratchets, etc.
- Knuckle thread: The shape of the knuckle thread is not trapezoid, but it has a rounded shape. It has limited applications. It is used for valve spindles, railway carriage coupling, hose connections, etc.
