  2. Engineering drawing abbreviations and symbols - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engineering_drawing...

    All information missing from the drawing is to be pulled from a 3D model of the part or assembly. LH: left-hand: Referring to handedness, such as the helix handedness of screw threads or the mirror-image handedness of a symmetrical pair of parts. LM or L/M: list of materials: Also called a bill of materials (BoM, BOM).

  3. Exploded-view drawing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exploded-view_drawing

    An exploded-view drawing is a diagram, picture, schematic or technical drawing of an object, that shows the relationship or order of assembly of various parts. [1]It shows the components of an object slightly separated by distance, or suspended in surrounding space in the case of a three-dimensional exploded diagram.

  4. Engineering fit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engineering_fit

    Engineering fits are generally used as part of geometric dimensioning and tolerancing when a part or assembly is designed. In engineering terms, the "fit" is the clearance between two mating parts, and the size of this clearance determines whether the parts can, at one end of the spectrum, move or rotate independently from each other or, at the other end, are temporarily or permanently joined.

  5. Boss (engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boss_(engineering)

    Two bosses in the form of cylinders on a mechanical part. The cylinder to the right is filleted near its base. In engineering, a boss is a protruding feature on a workpiece. [1] A common use for a boss is to locate one object within a pocket or hole of another object.

  6. Assembly modelling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assembly_modelling

    Assembly modeling is a technology and method used by computer-aided design and product visualization computer software systems to handle multiple files that represent components within a product. [1] The components within an assembly are represented as solid or surface models.

  7. Interchangeable parts - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interchangeable_parts

    Interchangeable parts are parts that are identical for practical purposes. They are made to specifications that ensure that they are so nearly identical that they will fit into any assembly of the same type. One such part can freely replace another, without any custom fitting, such as filing. This interchangeability allows easy assembly of new ...

  8. Rear-view mirror - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rear-view_mirror

    Harroun also claimed that the mirror vibrated constantly due to the rough brick surface, and it was rendered largely useless. [7] Elmer Berger is usually credited with inventing the rear-view mirror, though in fact he was the first to patent it (1921) and develop it for incorporation into production street going automobiles by his Berger and ...

  9. Bill of materials - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bill_of_materials

    An example of a BOM for a mechanical assembly (in German) A bill of materials or product structure (sometimes bill of material, BOM or associated list) is a list of the raw materials, sub-assemblies, intermediate assemblies, sub-components, parts, and the quantities of each needed to manufacture an end product.
