DIY robot vacuum

thingiverse

3D printed robot vacuum. I designed it without looking how the commercial ones built to the construction might look naive. but it works! the only thing is that it's noisy. I'd say as noisy as a regular old vacuum cleaner. But it all depends on how you set it up. Honestly if i try to look for what to fix it would be just a version 2. Because i would do everything differently after this experience. So i just corrected all files to the point you can use it. Also i'd like to see your criticism on the design! WHATCH OUT! some parts require supports and tires are made out of a flexible material! also the turbine is remixed so I uploaded it separately: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4548370 you might need: 1x brushless DC motor 2x NEMA17 steppers 3x M4x10 (for adapter for the filter bag) 9x M2.5x10 (to hold front wheels and the front sheeld) 8x M4x30 (to mount the top panel) 6x M3x20 (for wheel modules and for the turbine holder) 2x M4x40 (to secure the locking parts) and nuts for all of them. 2x M6x70 to screw them into the cover hinge (directly into fillament material) or you can just use something else to secure the hinge. i used what i had. also the front wheel is mounted on a 3mmx40mm rod i pulled out of an old CD drive. i'm preparing the video where i'll explain what electronics i used. i left some optional wholes for screws which i don't use but in case you need them. also i put some spare spacers so don't be surprised if you find out that something remains after the assembly. i put a brushed DC module file here in case if you don't have steppers. but for it you will need 2x M5x50 and 4x M3x30. also 4x 16mm bearings with internal diameter 5mm.
