compliant mechanisms 3d print

Pseudo Rigid Body Model of Compliant Mechanism of a micro-gripper for educational purpose. ...Research discussion are welcomed.

The joints are flexible compliant mechanisms that enable this to be printed as one solid piece. This model will not work with PLA. I recommend a rigid TPU/TPE (>98A), PCTPE, or Nylon without any fillers. ...If you have trouble printing this, please feel...

These part files can be used to 3D print the compliant rotational joint introduced and described in this YouTube video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RnGtlU3VfTY&t=8s

65 x 45 x 4 mm   So far it has the following features:A ring to actuate the clamp - push it down and the clamp will open, pull it up and it will clamp.A basic compliant joint so that the surface of the object that has to be clamped does not...

This carabiner has a spring-loaded gate, designed as a compliant mechanism. Hinge and spring are printed in place, so no assembly is needed. Therefore the whole model is just one continuous volume. The carabiner is not designed to carry huge loads,...

... used for friction free and repeatable linear motion. Found the principle behind the design in this paper: https://www.researchgate.net/publication/264383127_Metrics_for_Evaluation_and_Design_of_Large-Displacement_Linear-Motion_Compliant_Mechanisms

It is stable in five positions so I guess you could call it a pentastable compliant mechanism? It could be used, for example, to position an object precisely and reliably. It's still in a very early stage as you can see but it already works. I...

With some additional tweaking, I'm confident that it could deliver that satisfying click that people rave about compliant mechanisms, but for now, I don't have a practical use for it, so I've uploaded the whole thing with unfiltered comments in case...

The use of compliant mechanisms allowed the design to be scaled down with some components the size of a human hair, yet still being reliable. The design is a linear-motion large-displacement compliant mechanism. ...Other examples of these types of...

https://goo.gl/forms/MiyWYwno927Wb4TH2 A Wyrd mechanism is a type of compliant mechanism that mimics the motion of a double parallel mechanism. These mechanisms showcase innovative ways to use compliant mechanisms to create precise, desired motions....

The compliant mechanism topology was developed by the BYU CMR as an illustrative example, and the motion is based on a well known rigid-link mechanism. The term "Wyrd mechanism" was coined by CMR students, and the word "wyrd" is ancestral to the...

A Wyrd Mechanism mimics a double parallel mechanism with compliant motion.\n\nThese mechanisms showcase how compliant mechanisms can generate precise desired motions, demonstrating their versatility. The coupler point revolves but doesn't move...

The joints are made up of flexible compliant mechanisms that allow it to be printed as one solid piece. This model won't work with PLA; I recommend using rigid TPU/TPE (98A or higher), PCTPE, or Nylon without fillers. ...If you experience any printing...

Carabiner with compliant mechanism.This carabiner has a spring-loaded gate, designed as a compliant mechanism. Hinge and spring are printed in place, so no assembly is needed. Therefore the whole model is just one continuous volume.The carabiner is...

I was going to design a compliant mechanism, but realized I liked hinges more than I liked flexible weak points. So enjoy this "holder" mechanism! It has a 2 inch internal diameter, which is "perfect" for your average spice jar/bottle, but it...

*** If you want to support me, please download and like [this design on prusaprinters](https://www.prusaprinters.org/prints/146602-compliant-mechanism-toothbrush-holder). If the design gets enough downloads&likes, i might get a spool of filament for...

This is a constant force compliant mechanism that has a reservoir on top to demonstrate gravity compensation by a monolithic and flexible structure. ... A video the mechanism can be found on youtube:...

A perfect gripper to hold your toothbrush, realized using a compliant mechanism.It prints fast (16 minutes), needs only 2g of filament.Its print-in-place, no supports are needed.Its automatically gripping your toothbrush and only releasing it when...

An iris feature made with compliant design principles.

Hi,this is a simple multistable compliant mechanism. It is stable in five positions so I guess you could call it a pentastable compliant mechanism?It could be used, for example, to position an object precisely and reliably. It's still in a...

This is a design for a compliant mechanism that allows you to latch two objects together. The "insert" file should be used as negative space for the latch to be inserted into. A moderate tug will remove the latch from the hole, but it has enough...

You can view a video of this mechanism in action at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y6Y6iKvTpIc, while the main article can be found at http://www.reprap.org/wiki/Compliant_Linear_Motion_Mechanism_1. To construct this mechanism, use the template...

Compliant claw mechanism designed by Team 14084 [Insert Name Here] for the 2021-2022 FIRST Tech Challenge competition. Designed to work with the Rev Smart Robot Servo and Rev Aluminum Servo Horn. STL, 3MF, and STEP files available for use and/or...

A screenshot of the model with a flash print slicer is provided for reference on how to support the print. Be careful when removing supports that hold up thin elements (cruciform hinge/flexure) of the model, as damaging the flexures will make the...
