38. Planet_Carrier Design¶
Ready-to-use parametric planet_carrier design. It is composed of the rear and the front planet_carrier. It is used by the Low_torque_transmission Design and High_torque_transmission Design.
To get an overview of the possible planet_carrier designs that can be generated by planet_carrier(), run:
> python planet_carrier.py --run_self_test
38.1. Planet_Carrier Parameters¶
38.1.1. Overview¶
The planet_carrier is composed of the following parts:
- planet_carrier_rear
- planet_carrier_front
The planet_carrier_rear is the fusion of the rear plate the the middle bits. The planet_carrier_front is the simple plate that can be fused with a sun-gear in a future design.
38.1.2. Diameters¶
38.1.3. z-direction parameters¶
The parameters related to the extrusion size in the z-direction:
