Caster Wheels ============= Step 1: Build Caster Brackets ----------------------------- Parts Needed: ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ - REV-41-1303 – Bracket, Motion (2 per side, 4 total) - REV-41-1361 – Nut, Locking, M3 (2 per bracket, 4 per side, 8 total) - REV-41-1359 – Screw, Hex Cap, M3, 8mm (2 per bracket, 4 per side, 8 total) .. figure:: images/BasicB027.png :align: center :width: 7.5in *Figure 29- Unassembled view* .. figure:: images/BasicB028.png :align: center :width: 7.5in *Figure 30- Assembled view* .. hint:: - Screw the nuts onto the screws just until it’s difficult to turn them; just so that the nuts don’t fall off. - The screw heads will need to slide along the center of an extrusion in a later step. Step 2: Add Caster Brackets to Chassis ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Parts Needed: ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Caster Bracket Assemblies (4 – from the previous step) .. figure:: images/BasicB052.png :align: center :width: 2.81667in *Figure 31- Unassembled view* .. figure:: images/BasicB028.png :align: center :width: 2.81667in *Figure 32- Unassembled view* .. figure:: images/BasicB029.png :align: center :width: 5.04074in *Figure 33- Assembled view* .. hint:: - Brackets must be installed 2 cm from the end of the extrusion, if used for competition, to fit within the sizing cube. - Ensure that the pair of brackets on the same extrusion are the same distance from the end of the extrusion or the wheels will not rotate properly. Step 3: Add the Omni Wheels --------------------------- Parts Needed: ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ - REV-41-1327 – Shaft Collar (2 per side – 4 total) - REV-41-1326 – Bearing, Through Bore, Short (2 per side – 4 total) - REV-41-1323 – Spacer, 15mm (1 per side – 2 total) - REV-41-1324 – Spacer, 3mm (1 per side – 2 total) - REV-41-1347 – Shaft, 5mm Hex, 75mm (1 per side – 2 total) - REV-41-1190 – Wheel, Omni 90mm (1 per side – 2 total) .. figure:: images/BasicB030.png :align: center :width: 7.5in *Figure 34- Unassembled view of left wheel* [Continued on the next page, so detail can be seen more easily.] .. figure:: images/BasicB031.png :align: center :width: 4.74532in *Figure 35- Assembled view of right wheel* .. hint:: - Order from the outside in: collar, omni wheel, 3mm spacer, bearing, bracket, 15mm spacer, bracket, bearing, collar. - Adjust axle length, so it is flush with the collar.
