Snap Lock iPhone 6 Bike Mount

prusaprinters

<p>This thing is a two part iPhone 6 bike mount. One part is strapped to the handle bars using cable ties. The other is a case for the phone. The two parts allow a simple 1/8 turn snap lock to securely mount the phone. Removing it is just as easy.<br/> I printed this in PLA and the first few engagements were a bit stiff, but after that it gives a reassuring click and holds the phone nice and firmly.</p> <p>I used a strip of rubber from an old inner tube as a liner under the mount so that the mount doesn't slip on the handlebars. A video of the installation can be seen here: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kGJIT41Z6Ys">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kGJIT41Z6Ys</a></p> <h3> Print Settings</h3> <p><strong>Printer Brand:</strong></p> <p>RepRap</p> <p><p class="detail-setting printer"><strong>Printer: </strong> <div><p>Prusa Mendel Derivative</p></div><strong>Rafts:</strong></p> <p>No</p> <p><p class="detail-setting supports"><strong>Supports: </strong> <div><p>No</p></div><strong>Resolution:</strong></p> <p>0.2 (first layer 0.3)</p> <p><p class="detail-setting infill"><strong>Infill: </strong> <div><p>30%</p></div></p> <p><strong>Notes:</strong></p> <p>The model has a first layer inset to prevent a bulge forming on the bottom layer when it is set a bit low for good adhesion. This is based on a first layer height of 0.3mm, but it is easy to change in the OpenSCAD if you use different settings.</p> <p>The walls of the case are exactly 2mm to allow 4 passes of a 0.5mm nozzle.</p> <h3> How I Designed This</h3> <p>This was designed in OpenSCAD making good use of the minkowski, projection, hull and offset functions.</p> </p></p></p> Category: Mobile Phone
