Designing Parts of the Wheel Assembly(for Rockies)

This is a final Tad class instructable about making a wheel.

For my part, I am focussing on making individual parts. You will find another instructable on how to assemble these parts on the instructable website.

we will go through making individual parts.

A fully functional laptop with an updated Autodesk inventor (2019 and above)

previous knowledge in inventor might be needed or with common sense, you can follow along.

Draw the sketch as shown in the picture.

Note: make it symmetric on the y-axis

this a follow up the step from step 1

choose the exclusion command

choose the symmetric option of 78 mm

Draw four holes as shown below using the circle option and use these dimensions to contain it as shown above.

Note: make the circles symmetric on the two axis

select the exclusion command and choose the cut feature

select cut through all

Select the fillet command and select four corners as shown in the image

the first sketch of the wheel.

make the following diagram.

using linear diameter on this part. and use construction lines

apply constraints as shown in the image

For this, we are to select the revolution command

choose the angle to be 360 not 270 as shown

Choose the fillet command and select the edges as shown.

radius =3 mm

and don't forget the bottom.

The most challenging out of the four parts.

I will take 9 steps to do all the features.

starting with this

draw the first sketch and constraint it as in the image

select the exclusion command

do as in the image.

12 mm depth

it should be toward the back( vital for next features)

select the sketch command and choose the y-z plane as shown.

it should be from base to top( the hanging cylinder).

select the exclusion command

and exclude symmetric as shown

rotate the diagram and draw a sketch on the back of the incline.

only use the dimension given

to make the drawing symmetric use the tangent constraints.

exclude 10 mm as shown

on the feature from 14, draw the sketch in the image

do as in the image

select the fillet command

select the two front edges

radius 12mm

choose the fillet command

radius 3mm

and choose all the edges shown

choose the hole command

select commands as in photos.

start a new part and sketch a circle of 20 mm

exclude it 78mm as shown symmetrically

select new sketch

choose the XY-lane

center point circle and exclude 55mm symmetric

Select the chamfer feature.

distance 2mm

angle 45

repeat on the backside too
