ISO 10303-214:2010(E)
A General_open_profile is a planar profile defined by an arbitrary Curve. The area of interest is on the convex side of the General_open_profile; in the case of a removal feature the convex side is removed; in the case of a protrusion feature the convex side is added.
The x-axis of the inherited Axis_placement is tangent to the curve in its start point, the y-axis is oriented such that the convex area lies in its positive direction in the start point of the curve outlining the profile. Axis_placement is located in the start point of that curve. The Curve shall be defined in the same Cartesian_coordinate_space as the General_open_profile.
EXAMPLE Figure 36 illustrates a General_open_profile.
A General_open_profile is a type of Open_profile.
The data associated with a General_open_profile are the following:
profile_shape
The profile_shape specifies the Curve that defines the open profile shape.
See general_open_profile to curve for the application assertion.
