 Screw Jack
Screw jack is a portable device consisting of a screw mechanism used to raise or
lower the load. There are two types of jacks most commonly used -
Hydraulic & Mechanical.

Uses of Screw jack

[1] Can be used to lift a heavy load against gravity.
[2] Load can be kept in lifted position.
[3] Due to leverage obtained by handle force required to raise load is very less &
can be applied manually also.

Screw jack has following parts :-

[1]Body
[2] Screw
[3] Nut
[4] Tommy Bar
[5] Cap
[6] Set Screw
[7] Waser
Different parts of a Screw Jack are shown here.

Procedure:
1. Making of BODY:
Open Catia V5 > Start > Mechanical Design > Part Design > Part1
Choose axis > Draw a 3mm section shown > Shaft it > Draw outline scetches as per proper
dimension > Shaft it again > Fillet the selected edge > Save it.
 2. Making of NUT:
Open Catia V5 > Start > Mechanical Design > Part Design > Part2
Choose axis > Draw outline with proper dimension > Pad it > Make hole > Inside it create thread
> Save it.
 3. Making of SCREW:
Open Catia V5 > Start > Mechanical Design > Part Design > Part5

4. Making of CAP:
Open Catia V5 > Start > Mechanical Design > Part Design > Part4
 5. Making of WASER:
Open Catia V5 > Start > Mechanical Design > Part Design > Part5

6. Making of SMALL SCREW:

Open Catia V5 > Start > Mechanical Design > Part Design > Part6
 7. Making of TOMMY BAR:
Open Catia V5 > Start > Mechanical Design > Part Design > Part7

Select axis > Draw the outline with proper dimension > Pad it > Do the knurling
operation > Save it.

Assembly Design:
Start > Mechanical Design > Assembly Design
Double click on Product > Insert > Insert existing part with positioning > Add
Part1:Body > Follow same process > Add Part2:Nut > Coincide these two with
respect to axis > Refreash > Surface to surface coincide > Refresh > Double click
on Product > Insert > Insert existing part with positioning > Add Part3:Screw >
Coincide it with the provided hole in previous assembly > Axix to axis coincide >
Refresh > Surface to surface maching > Refresh > Double click on Product > Insert
> Insert existing part with positioning > Add Part4:Cap > Axis coincide > Refresh
> Surface to surface contact > Refresh > Again follow same process and insert
Prtt5:Waser > coincide it with cap and merge it > Refresh > Follow same process >
Insert Part6:Locking Screw > Coincide it with waser > Refresh > Follow same
process > Insert Part7:Tommy Bar > Coincide it with the hole provided in main
screw > Adjust it in x-axis > Refresh.
