by Thingiverse
Last crawled date: 4 years, 7 months ago
UDATE: V3.4 - 2-1-18
Fixed vesa mount hole tolerancing to all for a better clearance fit with hardware on pt 1
Fixed 75 mm vesa mount hardware head toleranceing with case frame on pt 1
UPDATE: V3.0 - 1-7-18
Fixed alignment tolerancing of part 2 with the pi I/O ports
Added support for 75 x 75mm vesa screen mount.
Added alignment blocks for easy case assembly
Improved mounting point hardware spacing
Improved SD Card access
Improved visibility on match controller status lights
NOTE: part 1 and 3 from version 2.0 are compatible with part 2 of version 3.0 however there will be some cosmetic misalignment, it is recommended to use only version 3.0 parts or only version 2.0 parts.
Raspberry pi 3 and vex robotics match controller mount to attach to the back of the vex field monitor stand or standard 100 x 100 mm vesa screen mount or 75 x 75 mm vesa screen mount.
Part 1 and 2 are the components that make up the case
Part 3 (optional) is just a field identification tag that could be customized per event, a few options are provided.
REQUIRED HARDWARE:
4x 8-32 x 7/8" socket head cap screws (attach case top and bottom shells)
2x 8-32 x 1/4" optional mounting hardware for part 3
4x 4-48 x 1/4" socket head cap screws (attach pi to case)
4x M4 x 0.7 x 8 mm socket head cap screws (attachment to vesa mount or field monitor bracket)
Standard 8-32" VEX screws can be used to assemble the case.
I believe a M4 socket head cap screw could replace the 8-32 machine screws, however I have not personally tried that.
ASSEMBLY:
part 2 should have 4 clearance holes for 8-32 screws
part 1 should have 4 interference fit holes for 8-32 screws to thread in
the 8-32" x 7/8" screws should slide though part 2 and through the vex match controller and thread into part 1 joining the top and bottom half's of the case together (see pictures)
