Week 9 - Attachment Feature Creation - Challenge 1

Aim-

To create an out featured rib on the center console coin holder.

Procedure-

Firstly open the coin holder using the open command

Rib-

To create a rib first extract the base surface of the coin holder.

Create a positioning sketch draw a line, constraint it, and define it as an output feature.

Go to part design , create a part body and assign thickness to the extruded line.

Draft the thickened rib with an angle of 0.5 deg.

After drafting, measure that the top surface is greater than 0.75mm. Now give the fillets to the edges of 0.25mm all sides.

Assemble the rib body with coin holder.

Simillarly create another rib with a distance of 2:1 ratio the created rib. Using formula

Y/X=2 (as per preference from the video) Height of rib Y= 12.5

Distance between ribs X=? X=12.5/2

Y=6.25

Now create an intersection using a YX plane to determine the rib root thickness.

Create a tritangent circle by selecting the extracted curves and lines.

By using a measuring tool measure the distance, height, and thickness.

Draft analysis

After the outer features ribs are created go to insert select analysis and click on feature draft analysis. Select the compass and position it on the tooling axis.

Click on the body to see color scale.

Result

The outer features ribs have been created.
