Re: pic: Suspension
I'm intrigued to find out how this works out.

Re: pic: Suspension
Nice idea.
I suggest that you move the springs to the top. Less chance of hitting something on the floor. |

Re: pic: Suspension
it looks high enough that the bumpers will protect the springs.. the bottom of the springs move with the wheel so they never will hit the ground.

Re: pic: Suspension
im curious also on how your suspension works, I understand the mechanics of what is shown, but is the gearbox side (the inner side) also on a suspension system too? it seems like if it wasn't, your design would create unwanted vertical tension on your axle. but I could (and probably am) be wrong.

Re: pic: Suspension
Have you guys had a chance to test this? I'd love to know if this great idea works.

Re: pic: Suspension
What prevents binding? Metal on metal contact of that type doesn't tend to slide very well. Are there some delrin inserts or something else we don't see?

Re: pic: Suspension
This was used on our competition robot last year. It does work quite well and was quite easy to implement. On this version there were no friction reducing bushings used because there was relatively little friction between the steel and aluminum. If it were to be used on more uneven terrain then we would probably use some sort of bearing to reduce friction.
