Troubles with joints and animation

frederiksoe — Thu, 24 Feb 2022 11:27:04 GMT

Hi Guys,

I have a question about joints in my latest design.

I've been trying to make a tilting trike mechanism for a bicycle.

Every part and joint should be in order, but I can't seem to get the mechanism working correctly. I guess it's because the wheels don't have a constrained contact to a "ground plane" but maybe I'm doing something else wrong...

Do anyone knows what could be a solution?

I have attached a video of the design, a video of the sketch that's moving as supposed, and a picture of a tilting vehicle as a reference.

Hi,

Motions are realized in Fusion between components with joints (Revolute, Slider ...) and not within sketches.
Please share the design for review.

Thanks for your reply! I'm aware of the relationship between components and joints.
The sketch was only to visualize the function I wished to obtain, and therefore it's in a component for itself without any reference to the design/bodies/components.

I have attached the design in my reply 🙂

Best regards,

Frederik.
