Universal Mounting Mask for LCD Modules

prusaprinters

<p>This is OpenSCAD customizer that allows creating mounting masks for LCD modules.</p> <p>There are number of parameters that may be set. However, most of them are set by default to appropriate values. Usually you just need to set dimensions of LCD module.</p> <p>By default, customizer creates not only mask but also models for mounting plate with matching hole for the mask, simplified model of LCD module and protective glass insert. These can be handy while setting mask paramters in Customizer..</p> <p>You can turn of rendering of unnecessary models.</p> <p>Description of mask model markings:</p> <p>M - whole display is visible in mask<br/> G - only LCD glass part is visble in mask<br/> GG - only LCD glass part is visble in mask and tehre is space for protective glass insert</p> <p>Read my blog post for more details: <a href="https://pedja.supurovic.net/3d-model-universal-mounting-mask-for-lcd-modules/">https://pedja.supurovic.net/3d-model-universal-mounting-mask-for-lcd-modules/</a></p> <p><a href="https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4615029">https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4615029</a><br/> <a href="https://www.prusaprinters.org/prints/42320-universal-mounting-mask-for-lcd-modules">https://www.prusaprinters.org/prints/42320-universal-mounting-mask-for-lcd-modules</a><br/> <a href="https://www.myminifactory.com/object/3d-print-universal-mounting-mask-for-lcd-modules-137183">https://www.myminifactory.com/object/3d-print-universal-mounting-mask-for-lcd-modules-137183</a></p> <p>UPDATE 2020-10-22</p> <p>Added parameter ofr LCD identification that is printed on model<br/> Mask model ID is inscripted on inner side of mask<br/> Added distancer tabs to prevent flexing mask<br/> Added PCB alignment tabs<br/> Improved LCD visibility (shalower hole for LCD display)<br/> Fixed protective glass notch position</p> <p>UPDATE 2020-10-20</p> <p>Added parameters to set LCD module display glass dimensions<br/> Added option to have protection glass between mask and display module<br/> Added some new parameters<br/> Fixed minor calculation bugs</p> <p>UPDATE 2020-10-16</p> <p>Found out OpenSCAD bug: if parameter has default value as integer it is not possible to enter decimal values in customizer. So I had to set decimal values for all parameters that needed this fixed.</p> <p>UPDATE 2020-10-12</p> <p>Added option to change shape of screw distancers. now user can select circle, square and hexagon base shape.</p> <p>UPDATE 2020-10-05</p> <p>I found out that Thingverse Customizer does not support boolean parameter (they should be presented checkboxes) so I had to update file to use numeric values presented as yes/no in customizer. It is ugly but at least it works.</p> <p>RELEASED 2020-10-05</p> <p>The first public version</p> <h3>Print instructions</h3><p>Print mask face down as rendered. That will provide best possible surface. Does not need any supports.</p>
