Maintenance • For maintenance remove the 4 mounting screws located on the sides of the dispenser and lift the top. • There is a notch in the front of the housing at the center which can be used to help lift the lid.
Manufacturing: Assembly order • Main housing • Inner mounting rails for PCB • Install PCB and nitinol latch assembly • Mount Top • Mount Empty return door • Mount Extension/ Ramp • Mount legs
Issues • Ramp / Extension clearance • Outside leg hinges 180 max • Empty return lock • Cylinder movement while upside down • Empty return clearance • Mounting location for sensors • Mounting locations for ball & spring latches • Edge deflection on 3’ drop • Edge guards only protect the main housing
Appendix • Force Calculations • Total Weight= • Aluminum+Pills+Cylinders+Nitinol+PCB • Aluminum =85.9 in3 = 8.41lb • Pills= .5g*10*33=165g = .363lb • Cylinder=10g *33 = .727lb • Nitinol =15g *33 = 1.09lb • PCB= .5kg *2 = 2.2lb • Total Weight =12.79 lb +Fasteners • Pressure on rails • Pills+Cylinder+Nitinol+pcb • Force on legs • Force on corner drop • Without rubber edge guards • With rubber edge guards • Pressure on PCB
