PROJECT PRESENTATION
I share with you the source files allowing you to make asolid ball and socket connection to reuse in your designs.
This version is the result of a long series of iterations to find the right design.
This ball joint allows to have a displacement of25° from its axis, and at 360°.
I used it in my design of phone support: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4694593
This includes.step files and files from Fusion (.f3d).
I hope this will help you in your future designs!
Reuse it well!
UPDATE 11/02/2020 (V3 files)
- Better sketch in Fusion 360 with more constraint (will less go messy if chnaging dimensions)
- Larger walls for thebase to avoid printing problems
- Shorter link on the ball joint to reduce overhang
- Bigger displacement (about 30°)
V3 files are 100% compatible with files of the first version
Please note:
I don't customize my designs, to the person, because I share them for free. A global solution is given (adapted to the greatest number), but I can't do it on a case by case basis, without remuneration for the time spent.
