This is the second Compound machine lab that i did this year. This was a fun and challenging lab because of all out design constraints listed below: Design Constraints: · The applied effort force is a trigger (such as a quick release and/or counterweight), as opposed to being powered by human input. Instructor may limit counterweight size. · The final design raises a wheel of your choice 5 inches using a pulley system with an IMA of 2. The 2+ mechanisms upstream which are driving this action must include a lever and a wheel and axle, but feel free to add more. · The compound machine must have a mechanical advantage greater than 1. · Equipment is limited to the materials in the VEX kit and any supplemental equipment that the instructor may supply. ·Design must be safe (instructor defined) to operate. Overall, i am happy with the results. attached to this post are the slo mo video of the lab and pictures. Today, We did a lab on simple machines. We learnt about All types of levers, wheel and axles, pulleys. It was fun building with the VEX EXR kits and calculation the IMAs. |
