Yacht Vent for competition
grabcad
My first attemt on the yacht vent for this competition: http://blog.grabcad.com/2011/08/usd2000-prize-for-a-new-yacht-deck-vent-design/ The mechanism is very simple. Rotating the knob results in opening the rectangular openings. The openings are located as high as possible and a reversed cone is used in order to keep water out when the vent is open. The whole vent consists of 5 parts. The cap, the main body, the cone, the opening mechanism and the knob. In the first .rar I include all the parts plus a .ipn file showing the exploded model. In the second .rar I include both a STEP and an IGES file. Material used is stainless steel. I kept the original top cap cause it is very practical
