The intersections of the cylindrical surfaces with a torus are often met in practice, for instance in the pneumatictransport installations for the intermediate products resulted from grist. The descriptive geometry is the foundation ofthe engineering sciences, giving force looking into space, much necessary to the specialists in this domain. She is theway to solve the problems in design and is one interdisciplinary link in the training of specialists in engineeringscience.The general method of construction of the curve of intersection of two surfaces is to find as many of its points, that itcan be drawn as accurately. Such points can be found using auxiliary surfaces (plan or spherical), which intersects thefirsts. The paper solves graphical one of these applications, using the classical method of the descriptive geometry.
