Abstract

The Bolt indication tensioning system incorporates inner and outer sleeves housing materials that when compressed have a resistance that creates stored energy. These materials will vary dependent on the needs of the application, i.e. Required Bolt Tension, Working Temperature, Bolt Length. This stored energy is also measured and graduated by measuring the force required to move the inner and outer sleeves relative to each other. The graduations will allow simple visual inspection to determine what the residual tension is at different compression dimensions. 3)D

Introduction Critical bolting applications often require high accuracy of residual bolt tension. This system performs that in a simple, easily readable way that does not require any special skills. The second issue that critical applications often fall fail to is in service relaxation. This system stores energy within that reduces bolt tension losses, thereby enhancing bolted joint reliability. Specifics The system incorporates inner and outer sleeves housing materials that when compressed have a resistance that creates stored energy. These materials will vary dependent on the needs of the application, i.e. Required Bolt Tension, Working Temperature, Bolt Length. This stored energy is also measured and graduated by measuring the force required to move the inner and outer sleeves relative to each other. The graduations will allow simple visual inspection to determine what the residual tension is at different compression dimensions. The Benefits Many applications that fail in service cost industry extremely high lost production costs as well as the cost of un-planned maintenance. This system will eliminate those costs.

Claims (5)
