Mechanical System
This page breaks down the mechanical system of the Robots. The problem has been broken down into five phases as follows:

- Have ya'll checked out these papers yet? They are definately worth looking at. --Andy 23:47, 26 September 2006 (EDT)
Announcements
10-30-06 I will be late to the meeting.
To do list: 1)Create single document with all needed parts and part #'s for ordering.
2)Drive Train: Encoders we found, will not work. Electrical team is looking for another encoder. Work on CAD model, put in bearings for axles, and mounting plates. Cantilever wheels are ok.
3)Manipulator: Select components to populate order sheet (see above). Begin modeling in CAD.
-Ryan
Update 10-12-06
I edited the Dribbler page with some useful info.
-Pat
Found bevel gears, but we will still need a coupler or custom shaft. Bevel Gears (sdp-si) part #: A 1B 3MYK05040 - same gears, 1 to 1 ratio.
-Brian
What to do 10/12/06:
Manipulator team: Continue reading documentation, try to make headway towards seleceting solenoids (for shooting mechanism) and motor (for dribbler). There is someone working on the solenoids in the electrical group, so when you have some information get with him.
Drive Train Team: Select a set of bevel gears, coupler (if needed, may be able to avoid because of bevel) and specifically which gear box. After that is done, work on putting all these componenets in inventor and placing them in the robot dimensions.
-Ryan
Homework!!!
1) Go to Maxon motor's website. Look at 6 W DC motors. Look for accompanying gears ( keep in mind shaft length and diameter. Look on www.mcmaster.com if you cannot find maxon gears). Perhaps accompanying gearboxes. Also, note physical size of motor and output RPM.
2) Read Cornell Papers on Mechanical page.
3) Ponder on Dribbler speed and assumptions.
Due: October 2nd
Note
I will not be able to make it to meetings next week because I have to work. However I can still do stuff on my own time and post it on the wiki. You can email me at gtg372x, and I will be checking the wiki to see what needs to be done. Also, the morph sketch and solenoid inventor files are up.

Roadmap
- Phase 1
- Simple prototype with holonomic drive train made from the Vex Robotics kit (Complete)
- Phase 2
- Build a second fully functioning prototype
- Kiwi drive system
- Dribbler and shooter
- Built to competition dimensions and requirements
- Phase 3
- Detail design of entire mechancial system
- Five robots
- Design Presentation to ME department
- Technical Drawings (AutoCAD or Inventor)
- Phase 4
- Purchase parts and assemble robot fleet
- Phase 5
- Test system and update designs
