Calculation of Lab Design C-Clamp

This document summarizes the design calculations for a C-clamp. It calculates: 1) The torque required to overcome friction at the screw and collar, which is 6679.875 N-mm. 2) The maximum shear stress in the screw body, which is 50 MPa and is below the allowable stress of 71.25 MPa. 3) The bearing pressure on the screw threads, which is 6.53 N/mm2.

Given :

do= 14 mm ; p= 2 mm ; = tan = 0.12 ;carbon steel 1006(y=285MPa)


2= 0.25 ; R= 6 mm ; P1= 80 N ; W= 4 kN = 4000 N,f.s=2,

l = Length of handle:
dm=do p/ 2 = 14 2 / 2 = 13 mm
tan =p/dm=2/*13=0.04897

the torque required to overcome friction at the screw:

T1=4000*((0.04897+0.12)/(1-0.04897*0.12))=679.875 N-mm
Assuming uniform wear, the torque required to overcome friction at the collar
T2=2W R=0.25 4000 6 = 6000 N-mm
Total torque required at the end of handle|
T=T1+ T2=6000+679.875=6679.875 N-mm
the torque required at the end of handle (T)
6679.875=P1 l= 80 l
L=83.498mm

Bearing pressure on the threads

height of the nut:


h=n p= 25 mm
Number of threads in contact:
n=h/p= 25 / 2 = 12.5 Say 15

thickness of threads:
t =p/ 2 = 2 / 2 = 1 mm
bearing pressure on the threads:
Pb=W/ dmtn=4000/ *13*1*15=6.53 N/mm2
