Minimalist Powered IKEA Tupplur Roller Blind Conversion (Minimal Print!)

thingiverse

Minimalist power roller blind IKEA TUPPLUR using existing brackets holder. Just remove the spring roller (which is always not working and jammed anyway) and print a motor hex connector socket. Using existing metal bracket from the blind screw a JGY-37 10RPM 12V motor. This motor is very quiet and powerful. Speed is just perfect, not too fast and not too slow. Align the motor shaft and require to drill 2 motor mount hole and 1 shaft hole for the motor. Get a Hex brass coupling and screw it (in fact I print very tight and hammer it) to the printed socket. Material: -IKEA Tupplur -JGY-37 10 RPM, 12V DC motor (any type will do that fit your IKEA roller blind holder) -M3 screws to mount motor holder (depends on your motor) -Hex Brass motor Coupling (easily get from any RC toy car to connect motor shaft to wheels) -Rocker switch (get from any car accessories for power window switch) -Electric wires Print the "window blind socket v6.stl" for the roller blind socket. Attached the HEX brass coupling. Depends on the print fitness, you can use hammer or a vice to press in the HEX brass coupling. Print at 50% infill. If socket is loose, just add some a few round of tape to secured it. Print the Rocker switch compact housing - Rocker Switch v12.stl This is a tight fit housing. I don't fancy elaborate design , just minimalist and functioning print to keep the 12V wiring secured and protected. Require soldering and minimal drilling (3 drill holes only!)
