Isikulufu siyinhlanganisela yemishini elula: empeleni, siyindiza ethambekele egoqwe umhume ophakathi nendawo, kodwa indiza ethambekile (umucu) nayo ifika onqenqemeni olucijile ngaphandle, olusebenza njenge-wedge njengoba iphonseka phakathi. impahla eqinisiwe, futhi i-shaft ne-helix nayo yakha i-wedge endaweni.Eminye imicu yesikulufu iklanyelwe ukuhlangana nentambo ehambisanayo, ebizwa ngokuthi intambo yesifazane (intambo yangaphakathi), ngokuvamile esesimweni sento yenadi enomucu wangaphakathi.Eminye imicu yesikulufu idizayinelwe ukusika i-helical groove endaweni ethambile njengoba kufakwa isikulufu.Ukusetshenziswa okuvame kakhulu kwezikulufu ukubamba izinto ndawonye nokubeka izinto.
Isikulufu ngokuvamile sizoba nekhanda ohlangothini olulodwa oluvumela ukuthi siphendulwe ngethuluzi.Amathuluzi avamile wezikulufu zokushayela ahlanganisa izikrufu nezikrufu.Ikhanda livamise ukuba likhulu kunomzimba wesikulufu, okugcina isikulufu singashayelwa sijule kunobude besikulufu futhi sinikeze indawo ethwalayo.Kukhona okuhlukile.Ibholithi yekalishi inekhanda elibuswayo elingaklanyelwe ukuthi lishayelwe.Isikulufu esisethiwe singase sibe nekhanda elilingana nosayizi noma lincane kunobubanzi obungaphandle bentambo yezikulufu;isikulufu esisethiwe esingenakhanda ngezinye izikhathi sibizwa ngokuthi i-grub screw.I-J-bolt inekhanda elimise okuka-J elicwiliswe kukhonkolo ukuze lisebenze njengebhawudi lehange.
Ingxenye ye-cylindrical yesikulufu kusukela ngaphansi kwekhanda kuya phezulu ibizwa ngokuthi i-shank;ingase ibe intambo ngokugcwele noma ingxenye.[1]Ibanga phakathi kwentambo ngayinye libizwa ngokuthi iphitshi.[2]
Izikulufu eziningi namabhawodi aqiniswa ngokuzungezisa njengewashi, okubizwa ngokuthi intambo engakwesokudla.[3][4]Izikulufu ezinochungechunge olungakwesokunxele zisetshenziswa ezimweni ezingavamile, njengalapho isikulufu sizoba ngaphansi kwe-torque ephikisana newashi, evame ukuxegisa isikulufu esisesandleni sokudla.Ngalesi sizathu, i-pedal ohlangothini lwesobunxele lwebhayisikili inochungechunge olungakwesokunxele.
