Looks like it is inspired from the 254/60/22 drive train.
Why couldn't the wheel be only two pieces by incorperating the hub into the wheel itself? |

I love the button head screw to tension the chain. Nice touch.

Re: pic: Drivetrain Side View
Just a few thoughts as 229 had a drive similar to this for triple play. Are you using a solid chain linking all the wheels together. We decided that we should use 2 chains one mid wheel to front wheel and one mid wheel to back wheel. in case one breaks you still have 2 wheels driving. Also if you use this in a game try to keep the robot balanced front to back otherwise you ed up with massive tread wear. But other than that great design, good luck in '07'

I modeled the drive train off of ideas behind of 254's drive train, and 968's tensioner.

Here is a render of our tensioning device. Once again, it is made out of sheet metal. ![]() |
Re: pic: Drivetrain Side View
Are the wheels being held on the shaft only by the clips, or is there something I'm missing?

I've been working on a similar design that requires as little complex machining as possible, as I'm the person who does all the CNC work on the team and there're few things I dislike more than sitting in front of the machine. The tensioning mechanism is one of the few details remaining, so it's interesting to see how others have decided to implement that detail. |

Here is a picture of how the part that I posted earlier fits into the frame. I moved one of the side plates out of the way so that you can see how the part fits in the frame.

Also, I like the display style a lot. |
Re: pic: Drivetrain Side View
Correct, I am relying on the tension of the chain to prevent the buttonhead screw from moving outward.

Re: pic: Drivetrain Side View
that my friend is beautiful...i wish i had the patience to design something like that. Very nicely done.
