9、.S.A. FOREWORD When created prior to 1895, Acme screw threads were intended to replace square threads and a variety of threads of other forms used chiefly for the purpose of traversing motion on machines, tools, etc. Acme screw threads are now extensively used for a variety of purposes. Long-length
10、Acme threads are used for controlled movements on machine tools, testing machines, jacks, aircraft flaps, and conveyors. Short-length threads are used on valve stems, hose connectors, bonnets on pressure cylinders, steering mechanisms, and camera lens movement. The Standards Committee on the Standar
11、dization and Unification of Screw Threads, B 1, was organized in June 1921, with the Society of Automotive Engineers and the American Society of Mechanical Engineers as joint sponsors under the procedure of the American Standards Association (ASA), now the American National Standards Institute (ANSI
12、). This Committee was reorganized in May 1929, and its work was divided among five Subcommittees as follows No. I on Scope and Arrangement of American Standard; No. 2 on Terminology and Form of Thread, Except Gages; No. 3 on Special Threads and Twelve Pitch Series, Except Gages; No. 4 on Acme Thread
13、s, Except Gages; and No. 5 on Screw Thread Gages. National standardization of Acme screw threads in the United States was begun in 1932 when Subcommittee No. 4 on Acme Threads of Standards Committee B I held its first meeting in New York. A report was presented on the types of Acme threads and the r
14、ange of sizes and pitches in use in this country. It was prepared by C. W. Bettcher with the assistance of F. L. Woodcock. This report developed into a draft standard and was finally approved as an American Standard with the designation ASA B1.3-1941. It contained a section of introductory notes, an
15、d tables covering general purpose screws and general purpose nuts, basic dimensions of general purpose Acme threads with special and standard pitches, basic dimensions of 29 deg stub thread, measurements over three wires for Acme threads, basic dimensions of 60 deg stub thread, and basic proportions
16、 for modified square thread. In December 1942, to meet the war emergency, the National Aircraft Standards Committee of the Aeronautical Chamber of Commerce requested the ASA to consider the setting up of an American War Standard for special Acme screw threads for use in aircraft construction. Recogn
17、izing the vital importance of aircraft production to the war effort, the ASA initiated this project at once and organized a Special Committee to develop the Standard. Drafts of this proposed American War Standard were submitted, first on behalf of the National Aircraft Standards Committee and later
18、by D. R. Miller of the National Bureau of Standards. The latter draft, which was submitted also to the Interdepartmental Screw Thread Committee established by the U.S. Departments of War, Navy, and Commerce, served as the basis for the development of the American War Standard. The final draft, dated
19、 November 20, 1944, was unanimously approved by the members of the ASA War Committee on Acme Threads and the General ASA War Committee on Screw Threads. This draft received final ASA approval on January 9, 1945, and was designated American War Standard B 1.5-1945. In April 1946, the Subcommittees of
20、 the Standards Committee were reorganized to take over the job of the ASA War Committees. Subcommittee No. 2 on Acme and Stub Acme Threads revised the War Standard on Acme Screw Threads and, on March 31, 1948, distributed the January 1948 draft to industry for criticism and comment. iii The final dr
21、aft of the proposed revision to the 1945 Edition of this Standard was completed in June 1951. It was submitted to Standards Committee B1 for letter ballot on September 17, 1951, and was approved with minor amendments. Following approval by the sponsor organizations, the proposed Standard was submitt
22、ed to the ASA for approval and designation as an American Standard. This was granted May 7, 1952. The next revision added the no allowance Class 5G thread. Approval by ANSI was granted on March 26, 1973. Corrections were made in the revision approved May 1l, 1977. Data for Classes 5G, 5C, and 6G was
23、 transferred to Appendices D and E for reference, and this revision was approved by ANSI on January 1 l, 1988. The present revision to the Standard includes the addition of gage tables and drawings for Gaging Systems 21, 22, and 23, table changes to conform to ASME Bl.30M, lead and angle tolerances
24、for product threads, measurement uncertainty values for Acme thread gages, and descriptions and drawings for indicating gages. The pitch diameter compensation table and text were deleted and replaced with data on standard gage blanks for gage length with text on pitch diameter adjustment for gage le
25、ngth over two diameters. Table values of gage dimensions for general purpose and centralizing Acme threads were added, along with formulas to determine diameters of multiple-start threads. Recommendation in the use of formulas and examples to calculate pitch diameter measurement over wires was revis
26、ed. Additionally, the Appendix contains revision of alternate centralizing Acme threads and of multiple-start threads, and was expanded to include ball measurement of internal pitch diameter, limit gaging of setting ring gages, gaging of problem areas, Acme tolerances over 5 in., and means for deter
27、mining limits of size for special diameter/pitch combinations. This Standard was approved by the American National Standards Institute on December 9, 1997.
