Hinges

Hinge Base and Arm

• Initial sheet metal parts are cut by E3/supplier

• Sheet metal parts are bent by supplier

• Welded together at E3

Hinge-Door Panel Intermediate

• 8 small components which need to be CNC machined

  • can use anything left in bay, otherwise sourced

Latch

• Handles - 3D print components

• Pushrods - Laser cut from scrap/excess sheet metal from hinges

  • Pushrod mounts for stability? - 3D printed

• Wire Routing Rods - 3D print

Hinges

• Use clevis pin to combine hinge arm and base

• Use leftover Dynamics fasteners for combining intermediate w/ hinge and mounting on chassis

Latch

• Latch mount and handle mount to be attached to car door using adhesive

• Handles are assembled with torsion spring and pin

• Pushrods are connected using dynamics fasteners, and potentially mounted for stability

• Wires are routed using rods through interior panel - need to ensure there are cutouts/space

  • Only on front door, back door only uses pushrods
