Customizable Square Pipe Connector (fusion360) by asimomagic

Last crawled date: 3 years, 1 month ago

This is a special version of the standard square pipe connector. (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4809036) To enable printing without support, the cut angle is set to 54.7356 degrees, and extra protruding parts are also cut.
There are two types, "2 direction type" and "3 direction type".　It can handle various pipe size. Customization is done by changing the parameters of fusion360 file (.f3d).
Try this cap once.
[Features]
-Customizable
-Fixed firmly
-Hard to break even if squeezed strongly with a wrench
-Easy to remove from the pipe
-Easy to print(no support)
[Design point]
-Designed so that when the bolt is tightened, the bolt is parallel to the pipe. This enabled stable tightening.
-The cutting angle of the body was determined so that three or two cut surfaces were the bottom surface of the print.
[Bolt/Nut type to use]
type: Countersunk screw bolt and Nut M3 - M6 (If the screw heads do not hit each other, you can use screws of other shapes.)
bolt length: The recommended length is more than 2 times the pipe side.
[Customizable parameters]
-pipe inner side (min:8mm at M3, max: no limit)
-pipe outer side
-screw size (M3, M4 ,M5, M6)
Detailed screw dimensions are set automatically.
Screws larger than M6 are also possible by manually setting the screw related parameters.
[note]
-Inner is common to 2 directions and 3 directions.
-Please refer to the following video for changing the parameters of fusion360.https://youtu.be/vHtWt3zRYvo
This video is for round pipe cap, but you can understand the way to change parameters.
[caution]
-If you get an error while changing the parameters, click the OK button in the parameter change window, and then click the undo button to return. This is because even if you try to change the parameters without undo to eliminate errors, the abnormal state may be maintained.
-This inner is different from "the square pipe cap inner". The cut angle is different. Do not use "the square pipe cap inner" for this connector.

The hole diameter for bolts has been increased a little.

Fixed some things that I forgot about Chamfer.

The design was slightly modified so that the outer side 10 mm and the inner side 8 mm pipe could be accommodated.
