QIDI X-plus Heatbed Strain Relief

thingiverse

After a year of almost daily use, the plug-in connection to the heating bed of my Qidi X-Plus said goodbye without comment. See photo. Fortunately, the power of my ancient Weller soldering station was sufficient to solder the pin strip back on properly. But to hopefully prevent another fatigue break in the future, I designed this clip to which you can fix the heater bed lead by means of a cable tie and thus relieve the strain. Because it gets quite warm in the area, PLA probably won't be permanently suitable for this. I have therefore printed with ASA, but ABS or PETG should also be suitable. To assemble, clip the part from below to the recess for the plug-in strip on the heating bed frame and then push it to the right until it sits flush with the edge of the recess.
