Fire Fighter The Monster Tank
Project: Fire Fighter • Brief Overview: • Objectives and Constraints • Design Process • Final Design: The Monster Tank • Safety Considerations • Marketing and Production
Mission Objectives • The objectives of every design project can be divided to 5 major steps • Design • Develop • Build • Test • Market
Assembly Constraints • Assembly Constraints • Fits easily into egg • No use of glue or tape • More than 50% by mass 3D printed plastic • Mechanical Constraints • Assembles Easily • Energy Storage • Move a minimum of 2.5 meters
Team Vision • Effective • Meet all design constraints • Simple • Create a design that has the simplest possible components and mechanisms • Marketable • A design that we ourselves would enjoy
Design Iterations • Four basic ideas for moving mechanism
MovingMechanism • Elastic mechanism winds axle • Attach one end of the rubber band to a hook • Attach the other end of the rubber band to the front axle • Rewind the front axle • Set it up on the table, and release
Safety • Safe Components • Rubber band is used for the mechanism which is safe to use • Springs for the missile is not strong enough to cause physical harm • Non toxic parts • Restrictions • Not for children under 6 • Small parts: choking hazard for infants and toddlers
Cost Projection • Project cost for 100000 units – 130,000$ • Only 1.3 dollars per unit
Marketing • Design Appeal • Toy encourages spatial understanding/construction • Violent toys dominate sales market • Top of tank can be switched out: customizable • Marketing Media • Promotional animation video • Brochures • Website • http://monstertank.gomitech.ca/
