Abstract

This study deals the optimization design with the simulation based design of a coil spring inserted into the lock nut for preventing the screw thread from loosening at the bolted joint when the high-strength steel bolt with the property class of 10.9 is used and the screw torque of 640 to 800 (Nm) is applied. In this study, structural analysis of assembly composed of bolt, nut and coil spring is carried out to evaluate its safety factors on the basis of the equivalent stress with commercial finite element analysis software. And the design strategy to extract the design improvement from these simulation results is established. An iterative process performed with the proposed design strategy is also proposed for improving the performance of the existing design. At the proposed procedure, the feasible design parameters using response surface method are found, and then these parameters are verified to be optimal or not by comparing with the response values and the simulation results obtained from the feasible parameters.

본 연구는 볼트강도등급 10.9에 의해 추천되는 조임 토크 640~800(Nm)가 볼트-너트 체결체에 가해졌을 때 풀림 방지를 위한 코일 스프링의 삽입 및 시뮬레이션 기반 설계 최적화에 관한 것이다. 먼저 볼트-너트-코일스프링으로 구성된 조립체에 대하여 등가응력에 기반을 둔 구조 안전성 판단을 위한 조립체 구조해석 시뮬레이션을 수행한다. 그리고 이러한 해석 시뮬레이션 결과로부터 설계 개선안 도출을 위한 설계전략을 수립한다. 또한 이 전략 안에서 기존 설계의 성능을 개선해 나가는 반복 과정을 제안한다. 이 과정에서는 먼저 반응표면법을 사용하여 설계 파라미터 후보점을 찾고, 그 후보점의 반응값과 실제 시뮬레이션 결과를 비교함으로써 설계 후보점(코일스프링 감감수 N = 6)이 최적인지를 검증한다.
