The article considers an innovative mounting clamp, which allows creating fundamentally new dismountable building constructions, engineering structures and outfits. While considering different methods of structural morphology, the article geometrically interprets the space-planning and technology requirements set for the framework of the designed building surface. The whole complex of the research, development and engineering works was performed, and it confirmed the proposed performance characteristics of the innovative mounting clamp – ball clamp. In the course of works a number of analogs of mounting clamps used in the constructions’ assembly were analyzed, their disadvantages were determined, and an innovative mounting clamp – ball clamp – was engineered. The advantages of the ball clamp as compared to its analogs were confirmed by the computations and tests performed at the laboratory of SUSU (NRU). Using the 3D computer modeling allowed creating a new design of the ball clamp manufactured by the cold-forming method. The 3D modeling provided a possibility to develop the design documentation and make preparations for series production of the ball clamp, as well as improve the capacity of its manufacture and considerably reduce the prime cost.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
