Week 10- Assembly Workbench
REPORT:
QUICK RETURN MECHANISM :
The first step was to create the five components: cross frame, support stand, slider, arm, and pin. These five individual components were created in the part design. They were created from the given measurements. After these 5 individual components were created, a new assembly workbench is opened. Inside this new assembly workbench all five components work copied, and the cross frame was given as fix component at the beginning. Later, each component such as the support stand, the slider, the arm and the pin were attached respectively. Each of these components was attached by using 2 reference points and 2 reference axis which was attached by using the coincidence constraint. The respective reference points and reference axis of each component were published using the publications tool. After attaching all five individual components by using the coincidence constraint tool the cat product was drafted on to 2D drawing and the respective measurements were drafted.
CV JOINT :
The CV joint consists of three main parts the body, the h frame, and the u frame. All these three parts were created individually in the part design by following the given measurements. After creating each component according to the given measurements, the three components were copied into a new assembly workbench. The body was first copied into the assembly workbench and fixed using the fix component tool. Then the h frame was attached to the body using a reference point and reference axis. The reference point and the reference axis of both the body and the h frame were aligned and attached using the coincidence constraint tool. Similarly, the u frame was attached to both the h frame and the body section using the coincidence constrain tool. The coincidence constrain tool aligns the two individual part's axis and points together. The respective Reference points and reference axis were published using the publications tool. After the CV joint was successfully assembled it was drafted as 2D by using the drawing workbench. The cut sections of the CV joint were drafted and the respective measurements were marked.
