Simple assembly failing

Anonymous
Not applicable

I may be missing something, but I'd apreciate some help with this as I have no clue what's wrong.

 

Here's a short vid of what I'm trying to do: https://screencast.autodesk.com/main/details/46cecd6d-4700-48f4-adf4-15b491e1028d

 

When I make the final link it throws a conflict and fails most of the previous assemblies too. 

What am I doing wrong?

Hey there, looks like a really cool project!  I found that the rigid group you had was coupling the base to the arm, so deleting that appears to solve the problem. 

 

Good luck and let us know if you have any other questions!

Hey, thanks for the reply!

 

But I'm afraid I can't replicate. Is this rigid group that you are talking about?

It fixes the "bolt" (also highlighted in the above screenshot) around which the arm revolves ("Pedala"), as can be seen in the video in the original post at [0:15]. If I remove that rigid group the arm and the "bolt" move freely without rotating. 

How does it work for you?

I see the mechanism you're making, very cool!  Yes delete that RigidGroup9.  Then you want to select the Ax component (the bolt), right click and select Ground, which will anchor it in space.  Then your mechanism works great.

Hmmm, tried that and it didn't work. I grounded the bolt (Ax) and the arm rotates around it, but when I link the end of the arm with the bolt of the top section, it all becomes rigid. 

 

The way it's supposed to work is when the Pedal is pressed down the arm lifts the Top part. Does that work for you?

 

Maybe you could upload a working version?  

 

Thx for your support.
