...
As part of the chassis, we need to design attachment methods for all electrical and mechaical components. This will include the electrical circuit boards. These boards will vary in size however for design purposes the boards will be contained in rectangular boxes. Our job will be to create components that will securely hold these boards to the chassis
Goal
Design and create mounting components for circuit boards
Project Requirements
Rayce Regulations
...
These are requirements driven by Midnight Sun.
- Must securely attach to chassis (assume chassis is made up of 1" OD tubing)
- Must securely prevent motion in all directions once boards are installed
- boards must be removable, cannot permanatly attach the boards to the car
- Must be scalable, ie design must be applicable to different sized boads (that are rectangular boxes)
- must not intrusively attach to the rectangular boxes (cannot bolt into them)
Soft requirements
These criteria would be nice to have but not critical to the project's success:
- Must be as light as possible
- Must be somewhat simple for ease of manufacturing
Deliverables
- Concept sketches of design (1 per team member) - OCT 13 (If you would like to create a solidworks model of this design by the 13th that would be great but not required)
