I designed a simple bumper to prevent my robot vacuum from attempting (and mostly succeeding, although it takes a while) to climb on my laundry drying rack instead of going around it. I'm printing it vertically to ensure the clips are the strongest they can be. It printed fine in PLA. It includes optional feet to prevent the bumper from rotating around the tube (see second photo).
I've made my bumpers 180mm long, the diameter of the hole 16.3mm and the height of the feet 3.5mm to print them on my A1 mini and fit my Brabantia drying rack but you can edit all 3 parameters simply by inputting your own dimensions using the user parameters in the attached parametric file.
- rack_diameter: the diameter of the rack you want the bumper to clip on to (you might have to play a bit with tolerance, I used the diameter as measured by my calipers)
- length: the length of the bumper
- (optional) rack_to_floor: if you are printing the feet, the distance between the tube of the rack and the bottom of the feet
