Influence of Geometrical Deviation of Shape on Functionality and Reliability of Conical Joints

Features such as reliability and safety of conical joints in machine and tools design highly depend on reconstruction of designed geometrical shape and stereometry of surfaces of the elements. The work shows results of research on deviations in rectilinearity, roundness and angle of the cone. Problems connected with evaluation of real geometry and condition of surface structure as well as functionality of axialsymetrical cone joints are presented. Identification of essential deviations: rectilinearity, roundness and angle the cone joined with their description allows for development of new methodology in designing of safety and reliability characteristics of the joints. Experimental research were carried out on the basis of joints used in car and plane industry.
