designs a foldable double pipe clamp with hinge.

Use carefully: The 'SGpipeclamp' function has not yet been extensively tested

Description

The hinge comes from SGcylhinge. Suitable for attaching to rain pipes on the house. Of course, the metal clamp consisting of two elements is still better.

Syntax

SGA=SGpipeclamp([D,Hw,Dh,MLD,"STL"])

Input Parameter

`D`:		Diameter of th pipe or CPL contour; default is D=80
`Hw`:		Height and width of the clamp; default is [40 5]
`Dh`:		Diameter of the Hinge; default is 4 ; warning if smaller than 2.4
`MLD`:		[Diameter Length displacement] of a DIN912/DIN985 locking; default is 0
`"STL"`:		if used an strl file is written

Output Parameter

SGA: Solid Geometry, complete as SG for grouping use SGanalyzePenetration

Examples


SGpipeclamp(80,[40 5])			% circular cross section
SGpipeclamp(PLsquare(80),[40 5])    % square cross section
SGanalyzePenetration(ans)           % Group the surfaces into related solids
SGpipeclamp(40,[20 5],'',2.5,'stl')
