Frame to mount a Raspberry Pi and a 7 inch touch display side by side.

thingiverse

Mount your Raspberry Pi at the back of the 7-inch touch display and you'll need to flip the whole setup if you want to use the GPIO ports. As a teacher, I want my students to work with the Raspberry Pi, GrovePi, an external keyboard and the 7-inch touch display. So, I needed a way to mount the Raspberry Pi and the display side by side. It's easy to store in a box and pick it up without breaking the fragile flat cable between the Raspberry Pi and the display. Attach the display to the frame using the small screws that came with the display. Attach the Raspberry Pi to the frame with 2.5 x 16 mm self-tapping screws. Add side stands so you can tilt the display for 30 degrees. Decide whether you want to use 2 or 3 of these stands. In the first version of the frame, on both sides, the stands fitted very snug, but in the middle, the fitting was more loose. I've replaced the frame with version 2, so all beams are now 5 mm in width. I haven't yet printed this version. Download my Fusion 360 files through the following link: https://a360.co/2plsquM
