DCG Project ePortfolio: Manufacture - Class 3
http://paulsschoolblog-eportfolio.blogspot.com/2011/02/manufacture-class-3.html
Saturday, February 12, 2011. Manufacture - Class 3. Today didn't go as well as I had hoped but I still got three parts completed. My problem was with the key part which took longer than expected to figure out. I got my key and the barrel surrounds finished today. The key was much more complicated to complete than I had thought. I think I could have made it more realistic also but cutting out the pin pushing parts were difficult as I wanted them to coincide with the holes I have put in the key barrel.

http://paulsschoolblog-eportfolio.blogspot.com/2011/02/final-solution.html
Friday, February 11, 2011. I have decided on my final design, of course I will still try to improve it as I get into modelling it etc but I am happy that it will work well and function in the way that it has been designed. The parts that I have incorporated into my design are:. The reason I have chosen this form of lock is because it. Is simple and very effective. The internal mechanism also allows me to create. Electrical contacts easily due to it's simplicity. 2 Smart Key -. 4 Car Door Popper Solenoid.

DCG Project ePortfolio: Manufacture - Class 2
http://paulsschoolblog-eportfolio.blogspot.com/2011/02/manufacture-class-2.html
Saturday, February 12, 2011. Manufacture - Class 2. I got a lot done in my second class of manufacture. Although the parts were quite simple I did not expect to get as many completed in a single lesson. The parts I got completed were:. To create my cams (x3, but all the same) I needed to:. Sketch the outline of the cam. Extrude the cam shape. Use hole wizard to create the hole through the cam. To create my cam shaft all I needed to do was extrude a circle of the correct diameter. Sketch the key hole shape.

DCG Project ePortfolio: Possible Solution 3
http://paulsschoolblog-eportfolio.blogspot.com/2011/02/possible-solution-3.html
Friday, February 11, 2011. Here is my third possible solution. It incorporates a simple dead bolt, a compact motorised hinge and door opening button. The deadbolt lock is simply to give the door the security of a high quality deadbolt which is important to have in a front door to prevent robberies. This type of motorised hinge would be very desirable do to its compact presentation. The problem would be that a motor this small my not have the torque to open the door if it were to jam in the frame. Manufac...

DCG Project ePortfolio: Evaluation
http://paulsschoolblog-eportfolio.blogspot.com/2011/02/evaluation.html
Saturday, February 12, 2011. In this post I am going to look back on my project and think about how effective my design skills were and if I would change anything I’ve done during this project. I will also look in detail at my final design to see if it really is viable as an alternative locking mechanism to what is already being used in households around the world. I think that this would be a very desirable concept for use in elderly people’s homes. The reasons I feel this to be the case are:. The discr...

DCG Project ePortfolio: Manufacture - Class 1
http://paulsschoolblog-eportfolio.blogspot.com/2011/02/manufacture-class-1.html
Saturday, February 12, 2011. Manufacture - Class 1. Today I started the manufacture of my door locking mechanism for elderly people. My design is not very complicated so I am hoping to get it finished in 5 classes. Today I completed my horizontal bolt which only involved:. An extrude of a sketch of the top face. A 45 degree chamfer. I also completed my vertical bolts, which are the same. This meant that I only needed to make one of them for my assembly. It's manufacture involved:. A 45 degree chamfer.

DCG Project ePortfolio: Possible/ Final Solutions Reflection
http://paulsschoolblog-eportfolio.blogspot.com/2011/02/possible-final-solutions-reflection.html
Friday, February 11, 2011. Possible/ Final Solutions Reflection. I am very happy with the door locking mechanism that I have designed for this project. I think my possible solutions were great for cementing in my mind what was important to consider in the final design, these considerations included:. Must be as secure as it can be to keep the elderly person and their belongings safe. I think that this design could be very successful and could be integrated into today's doors quite easily.
