Tutorial KinematicSkeleton/pl

Wprowadzenie
Ten poradnik prezentuje, jak zbudować prosty mechanizm 2D i dodać elementy przestrzenne, głównie przy użyciu narzędzi z zewnętrznego środowiska Złożenie 3.

Ten poradnik nie wykorzystuje zasady szkicu szkieletu (patrz Złożenie 3 Create-Skeleton-Sketch na GitHub).

Zamiast tego użyjemy Zawartości środowiska Projekt Części zawierającej tylko jeden  Szkic, aby zbudować mechanizm 2D, czyli szkielet wielu szkiców.

Wymiary, a także kolory, pochodzą z poradnika SolveSpace, do którego odwołuje się strona Złożenie 3 z GitHub (patrz wyżej).

Szkielet wieloszkieletowy
This so-called multi sketch skeleton consists of several individual Bodies and an  Assembly container. To be able to attach further objects each body is put into a separate Assembly container.

2D Body objects
The bodies, and their sketches, that are used in this assembly:
 * A base plate (green)
 * A crank (blue)
 * Two movable plates (red and grey)
 * Four connecting rods (white, yellow, purple, and brown)



The shape can deviate from that of the real part, but the position of the joint defining geometry must be accurate.

Parent assembly
To fix or control the positions of all bodies we need an Assembly object. It adds an assembly branch to the Tree view.
 * Press the button to create an assembly branch in the Tree view.

Sub-assemblies
Repeat above action to create an Assembly object for each Body and drag the Body into its Parts container. Then fix the Body to its Assembly:
 * 1) Activate the Assembly object (double-click).
 * 2) Select a circle/arc belonging the Body object.
 * 3) Press the  button to fix the Body in its sub-assembly.

The Crank-Assembly, for example, should look like this:



Assembly tree
In the Tree view drag all sub-assembly branches into the Parts container of the parent Assembly object.



Now they are ready to be arranged.

Fixed base plate
First we need a fixed part. To fix the Base completely we would usually select a face, but in this case a circle will do as well.
 * 1) Select a circle of the Base.
 * 2) Press the  button to fix the Base.



Joints
For hinge-like joints we select one circle of each sketch and use the Plane Coincidence constraint. It not only sets both Element's XY planes coplanar, but sets their Z axes colinear, too.
 * 1) Select a circle of each object to connect.
 * 2) Press the  button.

Base - Upper Plate


Previously created joints can be identified by their constraint representations (red).

Upper Plate - Rod 1
The last link in this kinematic chain connects two Elements whose Z directions are already defined and a Point on line constraint is all we need.
 * 1) Select a circle of each object to connect.
 * 2) Press the  button.



If the Z axes of three elements or joints are parallel and lie on the same virtual plane, the solver may fail to rearrange them in a following step because it is unable to decide in which direction the middle joint should be rotated. This can occur for the Rod 1 element, the Crank - Rod 1 joint, and the Base - Crank joint we have here. If this happens we need to help the solver and rotate one object (e.g. the Crank) manually using the Axial move tool.

Upper Plate - Rod 2
Another kinematic (sub-)chain starts with Plane Coincidence constraints.



Lower Plate - Rod 3
And this kinematic (sub-)chain ends with a Point on line constraint, too.



To connect both kinematic sub-chains we use Rod 4 with a Plane Coincidence constraint on one end and a  Point on line constraint on the other.

Actuator
Since Assembly3 doesn't provide any means to control kinematic assemblies, we need external assistance such as this kinematic controller. To use this controller we need to mark one constraint's label with the suffix to make it a driving constraint. It may be separated by a or  for clarity, as the controller will only check if the label ends with.

We therefore change the label of the Base-Crank joint to.

Finished skeleton
The finished kinematic assembly with deactivated representation of Elements and Constraints should look like this:





Dołączanie geometrii w przestrzeni 3D
My expectations about attaching a new object to a base object belonging to a kinematic assembly were something like: But that would have been too easy.
 * Put the new object into the base object's Parts container.
 * Position the new object in relation to the base object.
 * Fix the relative offset and orientation using the Attachment constraint.

The Assembly3 ConstraintAttachment tool, like any Assembly3  constraint tool, relies on the use of Element objects and their element coordinate systems (ECSs) for positioning tasks.

And so attaching objects is just another way of adding objects to a (sub-)assembly.

Let's attach Rod 4-3D to Rod 4 for example:

The objects have a different orientation and the 3D object should have an offset from the 2D object.


 * 1) Put the new object into the base object's Parts container.
 * 2) Select two corresponding circles or arcs.
 * 3) Press the  button.

It is now plain to see that the Assembly3 ConstraintAttachment tool ignores the offset and orientation between both objects.

However the position is already defined as we wanted and so we only need to adapt the angle manually and define the desired offset:
 * Set the of the first Element in the Attachment container to match the orientation.
 * Set the of the same Element to apply an offset.

In case we set the properties of the second Element, the movement of angle and offset would go in the opposite direction.

If there is a 3D object attached to each 2D object, it could look like this:



Uwagi
Sekcja Dołączanie geometrii w przestrzeni 3D tylko pokazuje zarys możliwości rozbudowy podzespołu, a inne wiązania lub kombinacje wiązań mogą być bardziej odpowiednie niż wiązanie dołączania.

Ważne jest, aby przesuwać taki zespół kinematyczny w małych krokach, w przeciwnym razie solver podda się i zawiedzie. Prawie niemożliwe jest użycie funkcji Przenieś część lub  Przesunięcie osiowe dla tego zadania.

Funkcja Wiązanie zbieżności jest używana do sterowania zespołem kinematycznym, jego właściwość  (włączona przez właściwość ) przyjmuje dodatnie lub ujemne liczby zmiennoprzecinkowe większe niż 360, więc może wykonać kilka pełnych obrotów.
