Bike Magnetic Smartphone Support

thingiverse

The bike magnetic smartphone support can carry your smartphone on the handlebars of your bicycle. The model is completely free! If you appreciate my work, you can decide to donate a tip (or click here: https://www.paypal.me/CARALIG). If you don't have a 3D printer, you can download the files and go to https://www.3dhubs.com/ to find someone around you who will print it for you at the best price. Once installed on the bike, insert a metal plate (a tin can lid works well) under the support your smartphone and put your phone on the carrier. There you go! The support is divided into five files that are printable separately: 1-LowerHalfRing 2-UpperHalfRing 3-MagnetRoom 4-Adapter 5-lid You can use the adapter if your handlebar bike is not horizontal. There are four different positions to screw it depending on the angle position you want to apply to the support. The diameter of the ring is 28mm. The support operation combines 3D printing, recovery, and recycling. Additional parts needed for installation and operation of the support include: A Torx screwdriver 9 to open old hard disk drives (http://urlz.fr/403X) Pliers to get magnets out of the hard drives Allen key 6-sided 4mm to screw the support on the handlebar (http://urlz.fr/4044) Recovery/recycling parts include: Six magnets salvaged from old three hard drives that are no longer in use (http://urlz.fr/403W). Your friends may have an old unused PC... Here is a video that explains dismantling magnets from a hard disk (http://urlz.fr/4040). The important thing is to get neodymium magnets. Two Screw lengths 20mm, with no male 5mm hexagonal screw and clamping nut 4mm (http://urlz.fr/4043) for allen key 6-sided 4mm (http://urlz.fr/40nU) Two hexagonal nuts with 5mm screws (http://urlz.fr/4045) A caoutchouc band (or old inner tube) is used to fill the possible gap between the handlebar and the clamp A smartphone shell (example: http://urlz.fr/40nW) One large tin can cover that needs to be cut to the dimensions of your smartphone Make sure at the end, that your smartphone is very well stuck with the magnet on the support. Do enough tests to be confident with it. You also have the possibility to secure it with elastics and/or a thin nylon thread that you can pass through holes in the support. You are fully responsible for what you do, and I'm declining all responsibility in any case if your smartphone falls from the bike and is damaged.

The degree of infill can be set to 30%. These three parts need to be printed this way: http://urlz.fr/42wX Parts 3 and 4 need to be printed with support. The filling ratio of the print can be set to 30%. These two parts need to be printed this way: http://urlz.fr/42wY How I Designed This I designed it using Autodesk Fusion 360.
