Re: Shoulder Screw Connection
Uchenna Offor Sep 15, 2018 7:43 PM (in response to Dave Bear)I have only modeled one of the aluminum bars haha. Been busier than I thought, unfortunately.

Re: Shoulder Screw Connection
Uchenna Offor Sep 16, 2018 6:15 AM (in response to Rubén Rodolfo Balderrama)The 2nd one is more like what I am trying to do except that I want it to be more controlled and stiffer rotation, so that if force isn't being applied, there will be no rotation, but when enough force is applied (sensible amount), there will be rotation.
There are only 2 bars in what I'm asking for, by the way, not multiple linkages.

Re: Shoulder Screw Connection
M. B. Sep 16, 2018 8:52 AM (in response to Uchenna Offor)... controlled, NOT LOOSE, rotation. I'm hoping to borrow the idea of a frictional joint, that is, fasten the bars tightly with the screw.
... more controlled and stiffer rotation, so that if force isn't being applied, there will be no rotation, but when enough force is applied (sensible amount), there will be rotation.
No one can possibly know specifically what this means or how to design it so that it works the best way for you. Also, you might want to research what happens when an aluminum part with minimal clearance rotates on a steel shoulder screw.
