Transitional Constraint question.

[Wez87]

Hello all,

I have a question regarding a transitional constraint between a pin and a surface within an adaptive assembly.

I would like the pin and the surface to be transitional only when the two parts "interfere" with each other.

At the moment with the example attached part A is remaining tangent to part B, restricting the necessary movement of part B to function properly in the mechanism.

In simplified terms I need part B to be able to break free of the "transitional constraint" of part A under certain movement conditions within the mechanism.

Is what im suggesting possible?

Any help would be much appreciated.

Best Regards

Dale

Hi Wez87,

The file you attached is an empty assembly file. We'll need the part files also, in order to be able to see your geomtery. If you're having trouble attaching files, you might try adding screen shots as well.

I hope this helps.
Best of luck to you in all of your Inventor pursuits,
Curtis
