Excerpt from A Manual of Machine Drawing and Design
In this work the authors have attempted to provide: - (1.) A large number of dimensioned illustrations which may serve as good drawing examples for students, examples ranging in difficulty from the simplest machine detail to a set of triple-expansion marine engines. (2.) Illustrations and descriptions of a great variety of machine details, which may assist the designer in selecting the form of detail best suited to his purpose. (3.) Many rules and tables of proportions, based on scientific principles or on numerous examples from actual practice, which may be useful to the experienced designer for the sake of comparison with the results of his own practice, and which may, to some extent at least, take the place of the well-filled notebook and collection of designs usually possessed by the experienced designer, but which the young engineer or draughtsman can scarcely be expected to have. (4.) Numerous examples showing the application of the principles of mechanics to the calculation of the proportions of parts of machines.
The illustrations given are very numerous, and they have all been specially prepared for this work from working drawings, and the authors have been at great trouble to obtain examples representing the best modern practice in machine design. The authors would here acknowledge their great indebtedness to the many engineers and engineering firms throughout the country who have generously given them drawings and much valuable information, which they feel sure will prove useful to students, draughtsmen, and engineers. They would also record their indebtedness to the leading engineering papers, and to the published Proceedings of the various engineering societies, English and American, for particulars of examples of modern practice, which they have either incorporated directly, or have made use of in drawing up the numerous rules and tables which occur throughout the work.
In the introductory chapter, besides several brief articles on drawing appliances and the making of working drawings, there is a collection of problems in practical geometry which are very often required in machine drawing; but the student must not imagine that the amount of geometry there given is all that he will require; in fact, as machine drawing is simply the application of practical geometry to the representation of machines, it is evident that a thorough knowledge of the latter subject will be of immense advantage in the study and practice of the former.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book provides a comprehensive guide to machine drawing and design, with numerous dimensioned illustrations that may be used as drawing examples. It also contains a wealth of information on the strength and nature of materials used in machine construction. The author has drawn upon the experience of many engineers throughout the country as well as published Proceedings of various engineering societies to compile a collection of rules and tables of proportions that may be useful to students, draughtsmen, and experienced designers alike. The book covers a wide range of topics, including drawing appliances and the making of working drawings, principles of mechanics, strength and nature of materials, screws, bolts, and nuts, keys, cotters, pipes and pipe joints, shafting and shaft couplings, supports for shafts, belt gearing, rope gearing, wire-rope gearing, friction gearing, toothed gearing, cranks, crank shafts, and eccentrics, connecting-rods, cross-heads and guides, pistons and piston-rods, stuffing-boxes, valves, riveted joints, steam boilers, steam engines general dimensions, and examples of triple-expansion marine engines. The author's insights are significant because they provide a comprehensive and practical guide to machine drawing and design, making it a valuable resource for anyone involved in the field. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
