The mechanical design can be divided into three separate fields:
- The drive train.
- The shooter
- The upper level
drive train.
The drive train consists of several parts. A chassis, cut from quarter-inch thick duron, has mounting holes for electronics and the wheel bearings. The wheel assembly consists of the wheel, a 3D printed wheel hub to connect the wheel to the .375" diameter shaft, and the shaft itself. A mounted bearing is bolted to the chassis. Finally, two pieces of duron - a motor mount and a motor support - are laser cut and glued in place.
Dimensioned Drawings of these components can be found at the botton of this page. Up above, one can see a 3D model of the motors, motor mount and motor rest, and finally the hub and the wheel.

shooter.
The shooter consists of a flywheel mechanism and a servo arm that pushes the foam balls into the shooter flywheel. Click the pictures below to see the full-resolution pictures. The third picture - the 2D sketches - is a compilation of all the laser cut parts that make the shooter.
upper level.
The upper level is a simple piece of duron placed 12" above the ground to which we mount the color paper picked up by the DRS.
