@jarekmace15362 жыл бұрын
@@ivanmirandawastaken If the original, smaller diameter bolt was strong enough, and the new design is just to introduce stabilization as it passes through the blocks, maybe design the new ones more like a "beads on a string" style. They will have to reduce in diameter at a given position based on how many blocks you go through. You know how long the bolt must be to make the connection. That should mean you can plot a hemispherical concavity in the bolt where a cross-bolt would need to pass. This would include bolts with a large diameter, unless you try passing two bolts cross-wise at the same time, which I find unlikely. I know this isn't the best description, but I can't upload a napkin image.

The offset makes the minimum distance between the negative space greater, which translates to greater structural integrity. You probably had this in mind when you were designing the parts. Also, with the screws, you could have made them more of a dumbbell shape, so that they were still the right widths to fit the holes on the edges in contact with the structural beams, but skinny on the inside to provide enough clearance for inserting another screw into an adjacent hole on another face of the part.

When you have two screws that meet in the middle, you have fewer threads from each screw that are engaged. Could you make it stronger by having one screw with a tapped hole and another that screws into the first screw? You could still have them with the outside threads like it is currently and then have a smaller hole/screw that are half the diameter of the outside of the screws. You would have much better engagement of the threads and less chance of a thread failure.

That's assuming that there is a lateral force pulling parallel to the bolt. As it is, I'm more worried about the shearing of the bolts. HOWEVER, if there are enough bolts holding it all together, then I'm not too worried about it. The stresses would get spread out over several points and reducing/eliminating delamination.
