SGmotorwindup

by Tim C. Lueth, SG-Lib Toolbox: SolidGeometry 5.6 - Parametric Design
Introduced first in SolidGeometry 5.4, Creation date: 2024-05-07, Last change: 2025-09-15

creates wind up motor with a 3d printed spring

Description

windup with the socketspanner is in cw direction on the cage side
there is also "debug" if used the construction will be shown in steps

See Also: SGwrenchsocketspanner , SGspringSpiral , SGspringSpiralbolt

Example Illustration

Syntax

SGall=SGmotorwindup([SP,AX,fgns,"nocage","axis4","frontw","STL","anime","P"])

Input Parameter

SP: Springparameter as in SGspringSpiral; default is [30,5,0.8,5]
AX: Axis description such as last parameter in SGspringSpiral; default is [6.4 6 5 0]
fgns: gear ratio and stack level; default is [0 3]; 0 stands for default values
"nocage": if used the gears are not covered by the rack
"axis4": if used and value <>0 a 4th axis is integrated into the housing with shaft geometry
"frontw": if used in combination with axis4 it has front wheel drive
"STL": if used a directory with all parts is written to desktopdir
"anime": if used without STL it animates the motor

Output Parameter

SGall: Cell list of parts

Examples


SGmotorwindup(30,'stl','nocage'); % design a minimum size motor
SGmotorwindup(30,'anime'); % animate the gear movemebts
SGmotorwindup(30,'axis4',50); % this is now a car not only a motor
SGmotorwindup(30,'axis4',50,'nocage'); % now the gear is not covered

SGmotorwindup(30,'',[25 3],'axis4',50,'nocage'); % ration 25 on 3 levels
