Assembly of the Robot:
Solid Works and Hardware

Here is the complete Modeling and Fabrication of the full Robot.

1. Assembly of Side and wood with bearing and Shaft:

 In Solid Works, first we make these parts for the assembly of the base.
 We use mate command to make these assembly.
 In Workshop Lab, first of all we cut 4 pieces of wood of length 9in.
 And made drill in it with 5mm dia. And place bearing in it for smoothness.
 Then we made shaft of the same dia. and insert tire inside it.
 Then we insert sprocket on it and placed chain for power transmission.
 For the outer side, we use aluminum material of same size for the support of the
wood.
 After that we made it assemble and here is its solid works model.

2. Frame Assembling:

 In Solid Works, we make use a single part mention above and by the help of
assembly we used it 4 time to make the frame complete and simply by using mate
command we alligned it according to our robot requirement.
 In Work Shop Lab, first we made these parts 4 times by using the same procedure
as mentioned above.
 For connection of these parts we make hole of 3mm dia. on each side and use nut
and bolts and Rivets for permanent assembly of the frame.
 And here it is the solid works model of the assembling of frame.
3. Links Assembling for frame Support:

 In Solid Works, we make links for the connection of front and side of the frame.
 Simply by using Mate Command we assemble it with all 4 corners of the frame.
 Furthermore, we make plate and mate it with the base for the support of actuators.
 In Work Shop Lab, first we made these links 4 times and use Aluminum for the
making of these links.
 For connection of these links we make hole of 3mm dia. on each side and use nut
and bolts and Rivets for permanent assembly of the frame.
 And here it is the solid works model of the assembling of frame.

4. Assembling of Mechanism Support with frame:

 In Solid Works, first we make mechanism support part and a plate for support of
the mechanism.
 Simply by using Mate Command we assemble these with the frame.
 In Work Shop Lab, first we made these parts by using acrylic.
 We made the mechanism support according to the dimensions given.
 We use white acrylic for the support of the mechanism and connect it with the
frame.
 For connection of mechanism with pate we make hole of 3mm dia. on both
mechanism base and plate and use nut and bolts or Rivets for permanent assembly
of the mechanism.
 And here it is the solid works model of the assembling of mechanism with base of
the robot.

5. Final Assembling of Mechanism with Mechanism Support:

 In Solid Works, first we make parts of mechanism i.e.; Joint Nozzle and ball placer.
 Simply by using Mate Command we first assemble joint nozzle and ball placer and
then assemble them with the mechanism support.
 In Work Shop Lab, first we made these parts by using acrylic.
 For connection of joint nozzle with ball placer we make hole of 3mm dia. on both
and use nut and bolts or Rivets for permanent assembly of the mechanism.
 Servo motor will be placed at the bottom of the nozzle for providing hurdle to the
ball so that when ball is placed inside the ball placer then it will be ported on the
other static robot by the rotation of the servo motor to provide the path for the ball
to be ported.
 And here it is the solid works model of the final assembling of mechanism with
base of the robot.
