Study Notes
Technology Unit Topics
- Technical drawings, views and projections, constraints, properties, materials, mechanical functions, and motion systems are covered.
Types of Technical Drawings
- Design plan/diagram of principles: Shows the name of parts, forces, and motion symbols, illustrating the operation.
- Technical diagram: Includes names of parts, links, guidance symbols, and a legend for materials, representing the assembly.
- Sketch: Freehand drawing with basic geometric lines.
- Cross-sectional view: View of an object sliced to show internal parts, useful for anatomy-based diagrams.
- Exploded view: A projection showing parts separated, often with labeled and numbered parts, with assembly instructions.
Drafting Lines: Geometric Lines
- Finding the centre of a circle by intersecting centre lines.
- Drawing arcs using a compass between lines.
- Drawing rounding of a corner, as shown in a table diagram. Examples of rounding using compass show a "no rounded corner" example, and a "rounded using an arc".
Basic Lines
- Visible line/contour: Thick line for outlines or contours.
- Hidden line/contour: Medium thickness dashed line for hidden contours.
- Center line: Fine line with a small dash in the center for symmetrical shapes or circles.
- Extension line: Fine line for dimensions.
- Dimension line: Fine lines showing measurements of parts, always in mm.
- Leader line: Fine line pointing to a dimension with the corresponding measurement.
- Hatching: Slanted, equally-spaced lines used to display a section of the object.
- Cutting plane: Thick line with arrow ends. Indicates the place of a cross-section.
Scaling
- Reduced or enlarged scale representation of actual size is written as a ratio (drawing:actual).
- Examples of actual size, scale reduction, and scale enlargement are shown, along with practice questions requiring students to determine the scale for objects given measurements.
Dimensioning
- Dimensioning shows the real-life size, width, height, depth, and diameter of parts of an object.
- The dimensions can be placed inside or outside the drawing, depending on clarity.
- Example of a skateboard drawing displays example dimensioning.
- There are practice questions for example diagrams showing deodorant sticks.
Projections: 2-D Representation of a 3-D Object
- Orthogonal projection: Light rays are perpendicular to the paper plane.
- Multiview projection: Shows multiple orthographic views (top, front, side) of an object.
- Isometric projection: Light rays are perpendicular to the paper plane and have an equal angle to the drawing plane.
- Oblique projection: The object is angled, allowing one face to be parallel to the drawing plane; but depth is drawn at an oblique angle.
Constraints
- Constraint: A stress or force on a material due to external forces.
- Types: Compression, tension, torsion, deflection (bending), shearing.
- Examples: Crushing a can, squeezing a sponge, tug of war, etc. There are practice questions where students need to identify the constraint in given diagrams.
Properties
- Material properties: Hardness, ductility, malleability, elasticity, resilience, stiffness/rigidity, brittleness, electrical/thermal conductivity/insulators, and corrosion resistance; are key factors in material selection.
- Materials: Metals and alloys, wood, plastic, ceramics, glass, composites (reinforced matrix), are categorized.
- Corrosion resistance: Metals like nickel, aluminum, and chrome are often more corrosion-resistant.
Mechanical Systems and Types of Motion
- Mechanical systems: Systems of component parts moving in various ways.
- Translation: Motion in a straight line.
- Rotation: Motion in a circular or revolving manner.
- Helical: A spiral movement.
- Motion symbols are included, illustrating the types and their directions.
Types of Links
- Fixed link: No movement.
- Rotating link: Rotation.
- Sliding link: Translation.
- Sliding-rotating link: Translation followed by rotation.
- Spherical link: Rotation in multiple directions.
- Spiral link: Helical.
- Characteristics like direct or indirect linking, rigid or flexible (elastic), removable or non-removable, and complete or partial links are covered.
Guiding
- Guiding controls: Direct the moving parts by controlling their movement during operation.
- Types: Translational, rotational, and helical.
- Examples: Tracks, grooves, axles, cylinders, and threads are examples of guiding controls
- Practice Questions are included, looking at guiding components in various systems.
Motion Systems
- Motion transmission: The same type of movement.
- Motion transformation: Different types of movements.
- Driver: The part that receives the force.
- Intermediate: The connecting part(s) between the driver and the driven.
- Driven: Driven component receives the motion.
Motion Transmission Systems
- Gear trains, friction gears, worm and worm gears, belt and pulley systems, chain and sprockets.
- Reversibility of movement and speed changes are considered.
Motion Transformation Systems
- Different types of motions like rack and pinion, screw gears, cam and followers, connecting rod and crank, and slider crank systems are included
- Practice questions on the systems are included.
