Variable Locking Hinge; Locks every 13°

thingiverse

I designed a locking hinge for a VR accessory that I needed myself; as it stands now, an M6 bolt serves as the pivot point, going through the center with a knurled M6 nut to keep the bolt in place. Two 6.5x20x1.2mm washers are required to reduce friction and maintain proper spacing between the two hinge halves; you can print these yourself if needed. Lastly, two M4 bolts/machine screws attach to the locking gear for unlocking or locking the hinge without full disassembly. As a hobbyist, this is my first Thingiverse upload; any constructive feedback is welcome, and don't hesitate to ask for guidance if needed. I couldn't find a suitable locking hinge design that met my needs, so I created this as a starting point. If you'd like a better version with additional features, let me know and I'll do my best to assist or provide a remix template; feel free to upload your creations, remixes, and any constructive criticism you have! Thanks for looking, and enjoy your day!
