Re: Pneumatic Wheel Swerve

So we might not be doing swerve, but for my own edification I'd like to know the key areas of stress in a swerve module. I assume there will be a cantilever force through the central axle as well as loads into the chassis and into the retaining bearings.

There will also be a force acting down and away from the axle protruding into the module, creating a pivot point.

I plan to isolate vertical shaft displacement with retaining clips and maybe even shaft collars, but I really don't know the numerical loads it will face. What have I missed? How in Solidworks can I get a stress analysis based off of the loads?
