TEVO Little Monster 7'' Touch LCD Screen Housing by IdefixRC

Last crawled date: 3 years, 1 month ago

I liked the design of Elzariant's TFT28 screen housing a lot and followed a similar approach for the larger 7inch version you can find here.
The housing will fit the popular Waveshare 7inch capacitive touch screen (e.g. https://www.aliexpress.com/item/EYEWINK-7-inch-Raspberry-pi-touch-screen-1024-600-7-inch-Capacitive-Touch-Screen-LCD-HDMI/32805673182.html).
I designed the case to expose the HDMI and both USB connectors on the side as well as provide access to the backlight switch at the back of the display.
While the case is a completely fresh design from scratch, the included foot is a modified version taken from Elzariant's model. It retains all the same features but allows you to mount the foot from the bottom with 2x M5 screws for added convenience.
I also included the mounting piece which will attach the screen to the foot in this package for convenience. It is not modified from the version made by Elzariant.
No support or rafts required.

In order to achieve the clean look you can see on the pictures it is necessary to wire 2 Pi USB connectors internally (one to the sBase board, the other to the LCD) and in addition wire the sBase USB internally as well (the URT pins are unfortunately not very reliable)
