Struct CosmeticThread 

pub struct CosmeticThread {
    pub designation: String,
    pub face: String,
    pub axis: Axis,
    pub radius: Scalar,
    pub taper: Scalar,
    pub major_diameter: f64,
    pub minor_diameter: f64,
    pub pitch: f64,
    pub length: f64,
    pub internal: bool,
    pub handedness: Handedness,
}

A thread recorded on a round face, straight or tapered, by its specification and where it lies — kept as geometry, so that it says the same whatever later steps do to the face it was put on.

Fields

designation: String

How it is called: M6x1.

face: String

The face it was put on, by its name then.

axis: Axis

Where it starts, on the axis of its face, and the way it runs from there (a unit vector).

radius: Scalar

The radius of the face it lies on where it starts: where it is drawn.

taper: Scalar

How much that radius, and the thread’s diameters, change per unit along the axis from where it starts: none for a straight thread, and for a pipe thread (NPT) a thirty-second, shrinking into a hole from its face, growing along a pipe from its end.

major_diameter: f64

The thread’s nominal (major) diameter, its minor diameter where it starts, and its pitch, as its standard gives them.

minor_diameter: f64

pitch: f64

length: f64

How far along the axis it runs from where it starts.

internal: bool

In a hole (a nut’s thread) rather than on a shaft (a bolt’s).

handedness: Handedness

Implementations

impl CosmeticThread

pub fn helix(&self) -> GeopResult<NurbCurve3D>

The helix it is drawn as: on its face, from where it starts, one turn per pitch, as far as it runs, following the face’s taper.

pub fn polyline(&self) -> GeopResult<Vec<Vector3>>

The helix as a polyline, SEGMENTS_PER_SPAN segments to a quarter turn.
