Runout Fillet Blues

[bughiker21]

I am a design Tech student having a little problem with drawing runouts. I need some instructions. I have completed a orthographic drawing form a figure in my text book and need to know if it is drawn correctly. I feel that I have not. It does not look correct.

 

Attach: is the orginal figure, the only runout info in my text book, and my orthographic drawing

 

Help me out with this runout problem. I would like to start drawing them correctly.

 

Please feel free to manipulate my drawing any way that you need to.

I cannot view the file. It won't download (I can download a file called with a php extension. When I changed the save path to a dwg extension it said the drawing was not viewable.)

 

Without seeing the drawing, I would say that the illustrations shown seem incorrect themselves, and and I think the manufacturer would get whether it was a large round or small one from the dimension rather than how the runout was shown on the top view.

 

Maybe design the actual part in inventor if you have access to it, and see how it generates the views. I have noticed some mistakes in the output views done in inventor though.

I did the drawing in AutoCAD 2008. Here it is again for AutoCAD 2000 and R14 users.

 

Let me know if I need to resend.

I use 2008. The problem was in the website. It downloaded a webpage or something instead of the file (I just clicked the link & let the forum script generate the path).

 

These new ones worked though.

 

I looked at the drawing, and I have to say that your question is beyond my expertise. The explanation in the illustrations is ambiguous as well. Your drawing seems to match the illustrations, but the illustrations contradict themselves.

 

I have a degree in drafting, I drew the runouts different than in the illustrations, my teacher seemed to have grasped the concept of changing their direction, I got 100s on all my drawings in the latter part of the course (They were always accurate, but my teacher was extremely strict on centering, precedence in dimension placement & the institution of drafting standards). So I don't know what to tell you, and I'd say it would take the person who wrote that illustration to definitively explain it.
