Create Motor Mounts For Rover #51

Open cglusky opened 4 years ago

Adding a clamping mount or two for basic gear motors should be trivial and will allow for Rover support. But let's get v1 d300 done first.

22mm, 25mm an 37mm look popular. With 37mm being all over amazon for about 15 bucks each.

There is also an option to support direct mounting using screws. Not sure which way works best right now.

Here's a list of hole patterns for popular gear motors:

31mm M3 Imports w/ offset output shaft 26mm M3 Heavy Duty 17mm M3 ActoBotics Economy 18mm M2 Precision

To support this design we would two version I think. Have to make the center shaft hole big enough, which for larger motors is likely as big as a smaller motor's mounting pattern. So you need a large and small version

Still , may be fewer versions than if we did clamping, which is three clamp sizes. One large clamping mont with inserts to support smaller motors likely will not work due to needing to clear motor can and mount with wheel. Could work with larger wheels but smaller wheels start to have issues.
