Week 9 - Attachment Feature Creation (Ribs & Screw Boss) - Challenge 1

Aim-

To create an out featured rib on the centre 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.

Extrude the output line using extrude command

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 selection the extracted curves and line

By using 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 on the compass and position on the tooling axis

Click on the body to see colour scale

Result:

The outer features ribs has been created
