Building instructions for a LEGO Mindstorms EV3 Active attachment for changing gear orientations

Kiril Mitov's most favourite attachment. To quote him "I had a really great fun building this attachment and recording the videos for it".

It's an attachment with a Rubber band and a Flywheel and a Gear Wheel and a Worm Gear. So much knowledge in just one small attachment. The goal of the attachment is to be able to have an active attachment without actually having a motor. So you can place that attachment and it will do the work for you instead of using a motor to power it. 

Build with LEGO Mindstorms EV3 set. 

When placing the rubber bands check out the tutorials

Placing the white rubber band is shown at https://www.fllcasts.com/tutorials/105-rubber-band-attachment-with-a-flywheel-solving-fll-2014-search-engine-part-2 at around 05:40.

This is an attachment that could be easily detached. It's built with LEGO Education SPIKE Prime parts and it demonstrates how to build an attachment that could be easily detached. In competitions you need this easy detachment as on FIRST LEGO League/World Robotics Olympiad and other robotics competition you need to save time. The principle is the same. The attachment is designed for Luly, small LEGO Education SPIKE Prime competition robot with 3D building instructions. Check the course in which this attachment is used for more information and tutorials on how to use it.

The goal of this robot attachment is to demonstrate a principle and example for dropping an object. It's built with LEGO Education SPIKE Prime parts and could be used in competitions in robotics like FIRST LEGO League/World Robotics Olympiad. It's designed for Luly, small LEGO Education SPIKE Prime competition robot with 3D building instructions. Check the courses in which this attachment is used for more information and tutorials on how to use it.

A LEGO Mindstorms construction for taking loops. Uses the same principle as a carabiner.

This is an attachment that accomplishes a mission. But they all do. This attachment is special as it is a Glide pinless attachment. It teachers the principles of building attachments that could be easily glided onto the robot and allow for quick changes of different attachments. It is designed for the

This robot attachment could be used to throw objects. It's built with LEGO Education SPIKE Prime parts and could be used in competitions in robotics like FIRST LEGO League/World Robotics Olympiad. The goal of the attachment is to demonstrate a principle and one example of an attachment for throwing. It's designed for Luly, small LEGO Education SPIKE Prime competition robot with 3D building instructions. Check the courses in which this attachment is used for more information and tutorials on how to use it.

This is a robot attachment that could be placed on the side of a LEGO Education SPIKE Prime parts and could be used in competitions in robotics like FIRST LEGO League/World Robotics Olympiad. The goal of the attachment is to demonstrate the principle and example of an attachment on the side of the robot. This specific robot attachment can lift objects. It's designed for Luly, small LEGO Education SPIKE Prime competition robot with 3D building instructions. Check the courses in which this attachment is used for more information and tutorials on how to use it.

Building instructions for a LEGO Mindstorms EV3 active attachment for changing gears orientations. This is the second attachment from the series.

This is an attachment is designed for Luly, small LEGO Education SPIKE Prime competition robot with 3D building instructions. On a robot most of the time you place attachments on the front/side/top. These instructions show how to build an attachment that could be placed on the front of the robot. The idea is to demonstrate the principle and you can expand and build a more specific attachment for the mission that you are accomplishing. Check the courses in which this attachment is used for more information and tutorials on how to use it.

This is the forth type of an active geared attachment. "Active" means that is is power by a motor. "Geared" means that it uses gears. "Reusable" means that you can easily extend the attachment with additional parts - eg - you can reuse it. It shows a basic principle of how power is transferred between different axles that have different orientation in space - like when one of the axles is horizontal and the other is vertical. It's built with LEGO Education SPIKE Prime parts and could be used in competitions in robotics like FIRST LEGO League/World Robotics Olympiad and others. It's designed for Luly, small LEGO Education SPIKE Prime competition robot with 3D building instructions. Check the courses in which this attachment is used for more information and tutorials on how to use it.

This is an attachment that could be easily detached after a mission is accomplished. It's built with LEGO Education SPIKE Prime parts and it demonstrates an important principle for building attachments for robotics competitions like FIRST LEGO League/World Robotics Olympiad and others. You move with the robot, you complete the mission and you leave the attachment on the field when the mission is completed. In this way you save time when adding the attachment as it is most of the time pinless and takes a fraction of a second to put it. The attachment is designed for Luly, small LEGO Education SPIKE Prime competition robot with 3D building instructions. Check the courses in which this attachment is used for more information and tutorials on how to use it.

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

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

Building instructions for the Pinless Rubber Band Attachment:

This robot attachment in inspired by one of the most interesting missions we've seen at FIRST LEGO League competitions - the Manhole Cover (08th) Mission in FIRST LEGO League 2017-2018 . The attachment demonstrates how you could flip an object. It's built with LEGO Education SPIKE Prime parts and could be used in competitions in robotics like FIRST LEGO League/World Robotics Olympiad. It's designed for Luly, small LEGO Education SPIKE Prime competition robot with 3D building instructions. Check the courses in which this attachment is used for more information and tutorials on how to use it.

Attachment part of a series of robot attachments for accomplishing the FIRST LEGO League 2013 competition. This specific construction lifts the two vehicles. It uses rubber bands for locking the levers. Take a look at the video tutorials for details explanation on how it works.

The Chain Monster is one of the coolest Box Robots that we've built. But what is a robot without attachments that can accomplish missions? These here are 3D building instructions demonstrating how the frame for the robot could be built. We've discussed frames in the Box Robots courses for EV3. Take a look at this one. See if it can inspire you to build robots and attachments in certain way to achieve consistent and reliable robot behavior.
