Walking Leg Mechanics Type 2. Lift Walker.

thingiverse

This is the second in the Claw foot walking mechanicals series. This version does not tip the body as it walks, but instead raises and lowers it. If your plan involves solar-powered walking robots, I recommend using type 3 Level walking mechanicals, which I will post next. A tube video showing these units in action and how to build is available at https://youtu.be/Pfw_jybhvHU. The design utilizes a low-cost DC motor gearbox with dual output shafts, requiring only a few screws and washers for assembly. In this example, the battery box was attached to the gear box, but normally it would be integrated into the body design. A two AA battery box with built-in switch is a cost-effective option suitable for most applications. I have updated the LEG files to provide more clearance, reducing the likelihood of toe contact. A new motor and small gear STL have been added, featuring a D slot that runs through the entire length, accommodating gear motors with longer shafts. Additionally, a Body Mount STL has been created, allowing you to glue it to the motor frame for a level mounting surface suitable for bodies.
