Re: pic: 3928 Swerve Module
Ingenious and elegant! - does that banebots turn it quickly enough? We had a swerve for lunacy but turning reliably (lots more torque reqd on carpet) and quickly the next year was tough. This design is much more compact and more clever though.
Any worries about radial loading on the CIM shaft? Or is is coupled (can't see the other side)? Last edited by wireties : 12-03-2012 at 12:00. |

Re: pic: 3928 Swerve Module
Wow. That is one heck of a swerve module. Bravo to your rookies for not only wanting to take on the challenge, but also completing it in a way that is just magnificent. I expect great things from this team. They built one of the best swerve modules their rookie year. Let's see them do better next year.
![]() Great job 3928! Keep building at a little under the speed of light! (sorry but you've been disproved. ) |

Re: pic: 3928 Swerve Module
Had to do a double take on this one. Love it to death. Major props for pulling it off!

Re: pic: 3928 Swerve Module
Now that's a cool idea. What's the overall reduction? Any chance we can get a side view to see the CIM motor going through the wheel assembly?

Re: pic: 3928 Swerve Module
Apparently the only thing you cannot use a CIM for is a flotation device in our eventual water game.
I, too, would like to see more pictures. Or .dwf? ![]() |

Re: pic: 3928 Swerve Module
I wish our students were around to answer your questions and explain all the work they did, but unfortunately most of them are way on a band trip.

- If you look, you'll see a plate above the turning gear. We attached that to our bellypan. - If I'm not mistaken, the plan was for about 360 degrees with a bit of overlap (so that there isn't a dead spot) (Aren might swoop in and correct me on this one). Quote:

Re: pic: 3928 Swerve Module
that's the front of the CIM, I'll have some more photos up in CD-media sometime soon.

Also, I don't see a steering angle sensor. Is it hiding in plain sight? |

The steering encoder (ma3 from usdigital) is mounted above the center of the module on the polycarb hoop into a 3d printed adapter, the body of it is held on another lexan bracket that reaches from the side of the frame over the top of the module. |

Re: pic: 3928 Swerve Module
A CIM as a bearing, just a beautiful and awesome idea and design.

Re: pic: 3928 Swerve Module
Please tell me you're going to mass-produce this and sell them! This is probably the best/smallest swerve out there! Any videos?

Re: pic: 3928 Swerve Module
So what goes in between the CIM and the colson? And did the colson come with that big of a bore or did you have to bore it out you're self's?
