Re: pic: 6 wheel suspension

Drawings are at http://www.team1322.org/ideas.htm under "six wheel omni".

It is semi independent suspension on all wheels but the right is separate from the left. Because the frame attaches at the two point’s center of each drive half (between the omni and mecanum) the frame lifts about half of the front wheel rise. No springs are required, the weight of the robot should keep it all down. We may add springs later if needed. We are thinking that we could add pneumatic control to help with it, also use it to lift the front wheels to get up onto a step. The weight is approximately 25 lbs for each drive assembly.
