Align view

The process of adjusting the orientation of an object's view in an orthographic projection to ensure clarity and consistency.

Enlarged view

A view of an object where the selected portion is shown in a larger scale than the original view.

Non-existing line of intersection

Lines indicating the intersection of surfaces that are hidden due to fillets or rounds. These lines are added to the projection, even though they don't physically exist, to improve understanding of the object's shape.

Apply convention

A convention used in orthographic projection to represent the shape and orientation of an object. This convention helps communicate the intended view clearly.

Study Notes

Chapter 5: Convention Practice in Orthographic Writing

  • Orthographic writing conventions are commonly accepted practices that sometimes disregard strict orthographic projection rules.
  • These conventions improve drawing clarity, facilitate dimensioning, reduce drafting effort, and optimize drawing space usage.

Topics

  • Definition: Conventions are commonly accepted practices that deviate from strict orthographic projection rules to improve drawing clarity. They disregard some projection rules in creating a more readily understandable representation.
  • Purposes:
    • Improve clarity of the drawing.
    • Facilitate the dimensioning process.
    • Reduce drafting effort.
    • Save or more efficiently use drawing space.
  • Types of Conventions:
    • Alternate position of side view
    • Incomplete view (including incomplete side view, partial view, half view, local view)
    • Aligned view
    • Enlarged view
    • Non-existing intersection line
    • Cylinder intersection (hole in cylinder)

Alternate Position of Side View

  • Purpose: Conserve drawing space and improve clarity, especially when the object's height is short and depth is long.
  • Conventional Practice: When height is small, and depth is large; placing side view adjacent to the top view.
  • Example: A diagram showing a top view and a side view positioned next to the top view for optimal readability and space-saving.

Incomplete View

  • Definition: Side view eliminating features not clearly shown in the chosen viewing direction.
  • Examples: Incomplete side view, partial view, half view, local view.

Definition of Incomplete Side Views

  • Incomplete side views are side views where a characteristic feature is omitted because it cannot be clearly seen from the chosen viewing angle.

Aligned View

  • Definition (and Practice): Imaginary rotation of object features; appearing in principle view around a symmetry axis. Use aligned views when the object features are symmetrical to greatly simplify and reduce drawing space
  • Examples: Diagrams showcasing how aligned views present symmetrical objects in a different way to simplify the drawing.

Enlarged View

  • Definition: A sectional view enlarging part of the full view at a larger scale.
  • Conventional Practice: Full-view framed by continuous thin lines. The enlarged view must contain both name and specified scale.
  • Example: A diagram illustrating a full view and a proportionally enlarged section, labeled and dimensioned accordingly.

Non-Existing Intersection Line

  • Definition: Intersection lines that are not physically present due to the object having fillets or rounds; instead, the missing lines are projected from the actual intersection lines on the surfaces.
  • Conventional Practice: When true projection misleads the object's representation, additional lines are added to show where an intersection would be if the fillets or rounds did not exist.
  • Example: A diagram of an object with a round and fillet; showing how the conventional non-existing intersection line is constructed.

Intersection Between Fillet and Round

  • Definition: Intersection area between an object's round and fillet features.
  • Practical Application: Methods of showing how these curves intersect and the appropriate line techniques. Runout is also included as part of this topic. This has multiple scenarios.
  • Runout: The portion of the curve that extends beyond the visible fillet or round.
  • Example: Illustrations demonstrating how to represent the runout and the intersection.
