Mini Desktop for Raspberry Pi or similar

thingiverse

This is a screen / power supply combination for use with Raspberry Pis, Banana Pis or similar single-board computers. I used bjoerngieslers touch monitor case (http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:298272) and parts from limas monitor holder (http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:398147) together with some housing parts for this power supply which can supply sufficient 12 V power for the display and 3.7 Amperes @ 5VDC which is more than enough for even powering a banana pi with a SATA hard drive: http://www.pollin.de/shop/dt/Nzg5OTQ2OTk-/Stromversorgung/Netzgeraete/Festspannungs_Netzgeraete/Schaltnetzteil_VOLTEK_SPEC7188B.html Instructions You will need: boern's display housing (front and back) olima's monitor arm and the mounting plate for the case (I cut away the second one I didn't need in Cura) one of each STLs of this thing (monitor base, end caps 1 and 2 for the power supply and the 3 lids) a 12 mm diameter push button switch, e.g. this one: http://www.pollin.de/shop/dt/MTM1OTc1OTk-/Bauelemente_Bauteile/Mechanische_Bauelemente/Schalter_Taster/Einbau_Druckschalter_PBS_11A.html a 9-pin sub-d female connector a 9-pin sub-d male connector with housing a micro usb cable for powering the single board computer a piece of cable with fitting power plug for the display module M3x10 mm screws and nuts M6 screws and nuts Screw the monitor base onto the power supply with 3 M3x10 screws; mount the sub d female connector and the switch to the power supply end piece and connect them with the cables of the power supply. I soldered the white and grey cable to the switch which allows me to easily switch on and off the power supply. Remove the M3 screw at the end of the power supply opposite to the AC socket and slide the ends onto the supply. Slide in the lids at the bottom and secure everything with some drops of glue. Mount the display into the housing as described in bjoern's thing and attach it to the power supply with olima's arm. With the cables and the male plug, connect the display and the Pi to the power supply and have fun ;-)
