Building Instructions

Nice idea. Lift the other robot and throw it in the air. Not easy, but Varna is trying to do it. It's a quite powerful robot with small wheels and gear ratio of x3. This means the power is increased 3 time from the motor to the wheel. 

Surely you can work with it and even improve it. 

Lifter is an pretty fast and pretty strong attachment that lift up... things... like exercise machine, astronauts and other stuff.

A program for that attachment in Into Orbit 09 - Strength Exercise challenge is located at programs/hm9c06-lifter-an-attachment-for-suv-box-robot-and-into-orbits-m09-strength-exercise-program.

This attachment have a guider mechanism that align the robot to the attachment. The attachment woks with SUV Box Robot.

The program is at programs/1zfoc7-module-with-aligning-attacher-for-m08-aerobic-exercise-program

This is the Little Truckie, but upgraded with an arm so it can teach you to be a good driver with lager number of controls. Now you can drive it and lift things at the same time.

The programs for controlling Truckie are at:

Truckie - Easy To Drive VEX IQ Program for Modkit

Truckie Hard To Drive VEX IQ Program for Modkit

Advanced Truckie - Easy To Drive Advanced VEX IQ Program for Modkit

This is an 8 bar lifting robot. Way should I build this instead of Roberto bot you ask? Because it is... well... it lift thing straight up, it lift 'em higher, it's more beautiful than Roberto and is more bad ass looking than 4 bar lifting mechanism. OOoohhh, and one more thing it may use the same program as Roberto Bot With Four Bars Lifting Mechanism.

The program si at programs/hb5rj8-pesho-bot-with-two-bars-lifting-mechanism-controls-with-modkit.

This construction demonstrates one way of using а rack with a gear wheel. It allows to turn circular motion in to a liniar one.

In Robopartans classes we needed a few parts the the robot could lift in a competition. These is a box that is suitable for this

For the FIRST LEGO League 2016-2017 Animal Allies we prepared an attachment for lifting the robot. The idea of the attachment is to show how you could lift the whole robot with a system of gear wheels, levers, and scissors constructions.

Built mainly from LEGO Mindstorms EV3 parts but could probably be constructed from NXT sets.

Active robot attachment for the LEGO Mindstorms EV3 Box robot chassis. The attachment is placed on the top of the robot and uses a system of two gear wheels to transfer the motion to a lever and to .... lift things.

When you need a LEGO robot attachment to lift heavy things on the competition field. Probably at FIRST LEGO League or World Robotics Olympiad. This attachment uses 4-5 gear wheels to lift a heavy object.

Build with LEGO Mindstorms EV3 parts. 

Building instructions for the LEGO Mindstorms EV3 robot used for accomplishing WRO 2014 mission. It is the full robot with the lift at the top

Building instructions for a robot for the World Robotics Olympiad Sputnik competition. This is the light version without the lift at the top.

Building instructions for a LEGO Mindstorms EV3 Ambulance Robot Attachment for the FIRST LEGO League 2013 Nature's Fury robotics competition.    The attachment grabs the ambulance car and slightly lifts it. The rubber bands help with triggering the attachment at the right time

These are building instructions for one of the greatest LEGO Mindstorms attachments that we've built. Super simple and easy to follow and at the end, you have an attachment with a rubber band that controls a lever and that could lift objects from the field. It could lift them up. Also because it is with a rubber band you don't need a motor and you could use the motor for other attachments. 

You need a model to lift with the robot. This is a nice looking model where you could experiment with moving the robot and lifting the load
