Brief Overview:- Objectives and Constraints- Design Process- Final Design: The Monster Tank- Safety Considerations- Marketing and Production
Project: Fire Fighter
The objectives of every design project can be divided to 5 major stepsa) Designb) Developc) Buildd) Teste) Market
Mission Objectives
Assembly Constraints1. Fits easily into egg2. No use of glue or tape3. More than 50% by mass 3D printed plastic
Mechanical Constraints1. Assembles Easily2. Energy Storage3. Move a minimum of 2.5 meters
Assembly Constraints
EffectiveMeet all design constraints
SimpleCreate a design that has the simplest possible
components and mechanismsMarketable
A design that we ourselves would enjoy
Team Vision
Four basic ideas for moving mechanism
Design Iterations
Introducing
Fire Fighter:
The Monster Tank
Product Design
Elastic mechanism winds axle 1. Attach one end of the rubber band to a hook2. Attach the other end of the rubber band to the
front axle3. Rewind the front axle4. Set it up on the table, and release
Moving Mechanism
Safe ComponentsRubber band is used for the mechanism which
is safe to useSprings for the missile is not strong enough to
cause physical harmNon toxic parts
RestrictionsNot for children under 6Small parts: choking hazard for infants and
toddlers
Safety
