Hello, this is team 9970 (Stellar Pixels) robot for 2018-2019 Rover Ruckus. This robot is not fully completed, so make sure to check up for updates (I will try to update biweekly). I divided the robot into 3 main parts, the Intake arm (collection of minerals), the Gear assembly (capability of lifting robot), and the Chassis (driving ability + team marker deployer).Intake arm: The rotating part (rubber piece in front) was designed out of Tetrix treads, the white pieces protruding out of it are made out of corrugated plastic. we added zip-ties quasi-randomly throughout the treads; we found that helped pick up minerals. Pros: after collection of minerals, the entire design can be flipped upside down without losing minerals in the process, the paddles make easy intake and ejection of minerals. The maximum amount of minerals is two, no accidental collection, and thus, no penalty. Cons: because of the several gears they might slip, however they may be supplemented with chains.Gear Assembly: This is the most important part of the robot. It has the attachment for the Intake arm, as well the “hook” for the lander. It has 2 torqenado motors, they have more torque than a NevRest 60. Pros: It has a succesful latching mechanism (with plenty of torque). It is a multipurpose arm, being used for the lander and intake arm.Cons: There are lots of gears, making shields for fingers would be helpful.Chassis: We use mecanum drive wheels, the ones in the model are not the same ones we use, but are pretty close. It has a team marker deployer in it, we tried to put in the intake arm, but was to large. We designed this robot to be able to complete every part of the challenge. there are several pictures to explain the several different capabilities of the robot. If you have any questions on the model, please leave a comment or message me via GrabCad. P.S. Please leave a comment or message me via GrabCad on your thoughts on the design, robot, or how well the explanation is. Many thanks.From your favorite team: 9970 Stellar PixelsIf you are interested in donating we have a go fund me page. https://www.gofundme.com/launch-the-stellar-pixels-to-stateor you message me via GrabCad.
