Our First Swerve

[matthewdenny]

2 Versions: One has A Cim and one has A Cim and MiniCIM. #35 chain from 15T to 42T sprockets on the 1/2 Hex Shaft. This goes strait into the 16T gear of a 2:1 reducing bevel box. The output is a strait 1/2" hex shaft from both sides of the bevel box to 2 Colson wheels. The bevel box has 36T sprocket axial mounted on it which is driven by A PG71 with a 16T sprocket by#25 chain.

There are 2 3/8" bolt holes on the side for attachment to the frame (Aluminum 2"x1" tube)

The structure is a 9.25" length of 2"x6" 1/8" wall Aluminum tube (the 2 motor version is an inch longer)

The 1 motor version is about 10 lbs, which I know is a lot for these, but weight isn't a major concern (were are more concerned about reliability and keeping it as something we can manufacture)

This is our first go round, and I was hoping you could point out things we need to change, or things we forgot.

Also sorry for the ugly CAD. We did it in Sketchup for speed and flexibility.
