Shoulder Support

Category: Make your commute easier.

A BIKE ACCESSORY similar to my CARRYING AID, but with the option for a storage possibility of small tools and other important personal items.

A cover with a safety lock protects the content.
A mounting bracket, made of a metal wire, avoid an unintentional opening.
Two hinges - similar to the hinges of a door - enables an opening of the cover,
up to 180 degrees.

The fastening of this SHOULDER SUPPORT is now realized by two velcro straps,
for a quicker mounting and release from the bike frame.
The velcro strap is modeled as a "dummmy".

The bike frame is partially designed as a "dummy", with an outer tube diameter of 29 mm. The inner diameter is 23 mm, according to the outer diameter of the saddle tube. I want to show with this very simplified representation, where the SHOULDER SUPPORT is placed.

The angle between the bike frame tubes - as shown - is 73°.

The saddle is a "Carry Over Part", designed by our member: Les Hardwick-Grey.
A special thank goes to him, for sharing the model as a STEP-file.

For fastening the SHOULDER SUPPORT on the bike frame two separate, additional velcro straps are needed. For fastening and locking the cover, you need two identical hinge pins and one mounting bracket, as described above.

The complete model is available in following formats:
STEP-file (.stp) and the native files (.prt) and (.asm) in a (.zip)-folder,
for users of »PTC Creo Parametric 2.0«

Both models (for 3D-Printing) of the "Bike Accessory" are available in following formats:
STEP-file (.stp), STL-file (.stl) and the native file (.prt), together in the (.zip)-folder,
