AEROSPACE JOGGLE ON MULTIPLE ADJACENT WEB FACES WITH INTERSECTING RUNOUTS
First Claim
1. A method performed by a data processing system and comprising:
- receiving a CAD model including a selection of multiple adjacent web faces of the CAD model and at least one datum plane of the CAD model that intersects the web faces;
receiving a selection of a joggle side of the CAD model with respect to the datum plane;
receiving an offset direction and an offset depth value corresponding to each selected web face;
creating at least one joggle feature in the CAD model by moving a portion of each of the selected web faces on the joggle side of the CAD model according to the respective offset directions and the depth values, including creating at least one runout for each selected web face at the datum plane, to produce a modified CAD model; and
storing the modified CAD model.

Abstract
Methods for CAD modeling and corresponding systems and computer-readable mediums. A method includes receiving a CAD model including a selection of multiple adjacent web faces of the CAD model and at least one datum plane of the CAD model that intersects the web faces, receiving a selection of a joggle side of the CAD model with respect to the datum plane, and receiving an offset direction and an offset depth value corresponding to each selected web face. The method includes creating at least one joggle feature in the CAD model by moving a portion of each of the selected web faces on the joggle side of the CAD model according to the respective offset directions and the depth values, including creating at least one runout for each selected web face at the datum plane, to produce a modified CAD model. The method includes storing the modified CAD model. The multiple adjacent web faces can include intermediate web faces.
