I’ve been looking at this part, Technic, Arm 2 x 5 with 1/4 Gear 8 Tooth
Double Bevel, and I figure it should be simple enough to use it to flip
something to one side, but I’d like to know if anyone has tried doing this
in a Technic creation of their own ,and if there are any special
considerations for using this gear in that regard.
|
I used that part to act as the fulcrum and geared lever for the suspension on my
Blue Quad.
| |
I’d also like to know if it can be made so it will auto-return (either by
gravity or gearing) to it’s original orientation afterwards. It would seem
simple enough to mount the gear on the central hole and then engage it with
another gear at a certain angle.
|
I used the part to create an shock absorb/dampen system, because the part is
also used as a fulcrum, the shock returns it to position, depending on the
mechanical load transfered to the geared section of this “gear/lift arm”.
| |
Anyone have some good construction ideas using this gear?
