Wensi's PV layer holder by M_G

Last crawled date: 3 years ago

This OpenSCAD script will generate a simple one piece fixture to hold a colleague's PV layer components i.e. PV cell, PCB and supercapacitor
NOTE: Before v0.7 parts of this file lie below z=0, these files will need to be moved onto the platform before printing! Be careful if you decide to print this!
I've got 30 of these guys to print!
Changes from previous versions:
2.1.0
Variant that prints a simple 2cm tall cap to cover the electronics part of the holder
2.1
Fixed some vlaues to place the support posts in corect location (up +1mm) scap leads Right +2mm
increased post diameter for the two along one side slightly
2.0
New layout (PCB rotated 90Degrees) and larger SCAP
change pcb_l 30->35 pcb_b 35->30
change scap_l 23->20 scap_b 15->22 scap_h 5->10
0.8
add thin infill for hollow sections to improve printability
0.7
moved entire structure above z=0 plane (no longer a destroyer of belts)
added mouse ears
0.6
made thinner
fixed incorrect measurements for PV panel
0.5
Added holes for wires between sections
0.4
Removed plastic from centre of pv area to speed up print
0.3
Fixed error with cutout translates due to misuse of separation and clearance variables
Fixed error with second half of calculation of total _b using max() where I forgot to include separation
0.2
Added support posts
0.1
First attempt
