Scissor lift

Scissor lift mechanismI have chosen to design this scissor lift mechanism for my final project in 3D Modeling and Printing because I found it the most interesting from the list of proposed mechanisms.The main components are the two plates that are connected to the 4 arms and two separators through which a screw passes. When the screw is screwed the separator from the back is screwed to the screw causing the 4 arms to approach in the center and lift the plates simultaneously.To power the mechanism you can drive the “screw_cyl” joint from the screw. To see the the motion of the mechanism play the “power_mecanism” motion study from the .f3d file.This project includes 8 .stl files with each component individually and a .f3d with the functional mechanism.The project was made in Autodesk Fusion 360.This mechanism is inspired from International3D (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:925556)
