Baby Food Pouch Hanger Assembly

thingiverse

My wife has been feeding our toddler from these common fruit and veggie pouches you can find in any grocery store. Unfortunately, they don't stand up well for storage. I decided to make a hook assembly to hang the bags in the cabinet to get them off the kitchen table and use available space. The design is all slide fits/locks to minimize support material. The only support material needed is on the front teeth that the "lock" piece slides onto. No support is needed anywhere else. The design is also chain-able. Print off multiple assemblies to chain them together to create a longer row of hooks! This also allows the assembly to be printed on a bed that is 150mmx150mm or larger! Hope new parents out there find this useful! Note: Use silicone adhesive to attach to your cabinets. It's strong but also can be removed. I've tried using command strips and while they work, they don't have the long term strength to hold the weight of the pouches. Here is a link to the silicone I used: https://www.lowes.com/pd/LOCTITE-2-7-oz-Specialty-Adhesive/3454788 Post-Printing Assembly process for hanger I used 3M command release strips to attach this to the top of my cabinets. This way it can easily be removed later. Connecting multiple hangers If you'd like to extend this hanger. Print the full set shown above, then print a second set, minus the lock. Lock the second assembly into the back of the first assembly. You can chain together as many as you need! How I Designed This Siemens NX
