One more example for an active attachment with a system of gear wheels. This time the system is constructed so that the attachment could lift heavy objects.
How do you lift heavy objects with an attachment? In this episode we show a simple, interesting, but yet not very popular way to lift something heavy with and LEGO Mindstorms EV3 robot and without gears and motors as attachment. As a specific example we are using the Strength Exercise mission from the FIRST LEGO League 2012 competition.
Build a rack and try to lift the robot with this rack.
This video tutorial contains a detailed explanation on how we accomplish the FIRST LEGO League 2018-2019 Into Orbit mission called M09. STRENGTH EXERCISE. I could think for a couple of missions in previous years that require lifting a heavy object. Let's see how this mission could be accomplished.
In this video tutorial we would look at the mission run for M09. STRENGTH EXERCISE. The mission is to lift a heavy object in the air. And that could a complex mission. It requires to use gear wheel and the attachment should be quite strong. The tutorial contains only the mission run on the field. We accomplish a single mission.
This video is part of a series where we show you how our Box Robot accomplished the M10 Steel Construction mission 10 out of 10 times. The attachment is a basic lever and all the 'heavy lifting' is done by the x-y movement of the Dominator robot. This mission is one of the hard missions, because the construction is big and heavy and this requires precise movement of the robot.
Don't limit yourself to the box and think of different ways to lift the robot.
Time to lift the robot. The first approach is by using the 40 teeth gear wheels that come with the LEGO Mindstorms EV3 and NXT robotics sets.
Where should you lift the robot? Especially if you don`t have the mission model that we are using
