Goals:

• Create a piece to attach hook mechanism to the elevator on CAD

Accomplishments/Creations

• A sketch for a complete drawing on CFAD
• We learned a LOT of math and how to use CAD sheet metal Drawing
• Created a CAD part with incorrect dimensipons

Learned:

• math is crucial for understanding design
• correct dimensions allow for easy designing
• how NOT to do CAD

Completed and tested prototypes of 2 different hatch mechanisms

Hook Mechanism Tested, Success.

Hook can attactch from many angles with a pretty good success rate

Compression hatch mechanism

Not as many angles, a little wobbly, decent success rate

decided on hook mechanism

 

 

no hatch progress
