FINAL final

I would like to continuously work on the door project. I am very interested in intergrating the everyday life movment into useful electricity.

My goal:
1. to make the machenical structure simple and user friendly.
2. reduce the extra effort from the users.
3. play with different possibilities, make the motor to be more efficent.
4. think about how to use the energy !


time line:
3/20: experience with different kind of machenical struture.
3/27: pin down what might work and make prototypes!!!
4/03:

material:
1. pully structure: pully, V belt, lumber
2. plastic, delrin

progress:
week1:
I experienced different kind of structures. all the idea seem a little too complicated right now.
still need to limited the machenical structure. good thing about making the prototype is that I got the masurement of the door in the relation to the space.

moving things

first prototype

installation

visualize the space: close up

gear structure

week2:
talked to Jeff about the idea. I am gonna order the V-belt and pully to try if the pully system would work on the regular door and the pull door in itp. I might be able to intergrate different kind of door with the same method.
