Azipod Schottelantrieb

thingiverse

This is an AZIPOD or Schottel Drive or in German Schottelantrieb to drive the RC model 1:100 of the NEUWERK. You can print either twice the Azipod_Cover (1 time z axis mirrored) or twice the Azipod_Cover_Blocks (1 time z axis mirrored). The difference is, that the ball bearings have holding blocks in the "Blocks" file so that they do not move in the housing. The Azipod_Throughput is glued into the RC wooden hull, so that the drive moves freely. You need all 4 gears that are a remix of the Halter Zahnriehmen: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2498786. 1 for the motor, 1 for the servo, 1 for the ruder (comes first), and 1 for the drive (comes second). Between the ruder gear and the drive gear there is a 3mm screw nut as well as on top so that via counter screwing the gear is fixed. As a propellor I use the 32-5-3mm file: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4714701. It gets also a 3mm screw nut before and after the propellor so that counter screwing fixes it. Thus, you need 3mm endless screws in the length of 49mm and 56mm: http://schrauben-niro.de/product/de/Gewindestangen/DIN-976-A2/Gewindebolzen-M3-x-1000-mm-rostfreier-Edelstahl-A2-70.html You need a pair of Reely bevel gears with 15 tooth module 0.5: https://www.conrad.de/de/p/reely-messing-kegelrad-modul-typ-0-5-anzahl-zaehne-15-15-1-paar-547237.html. They are screwed against the endless 3mm screw so that they easily snap together in the hull. And you need per drive 4 ball bearings of size F 623 ZZ which has a 10mm outer diameter, 3mm inner diameter and a thickness of 4mm. Well finally, the driving wheels need to be linked via a belt drive. This is an MXL 6mm as here available in different length: https://www.ebay.de/itm/133479399786?var=432936801368 Printing: All is printed in orange Prusa PETG with 90% infill with support between the heat bed and the parts for the Cover files only.
