Challenge: During the design process, we encountered issues with incorrectly dimensioned parts within the overall assembly of the stroller, which caused components not to fit together properly.
Solution: To resolve this, I worked on re-dimensioning the parts that were causing misalignments. By adjusting the dimensions of key components, I ensured that the parts fit together seamlessly, resulting in a fully functioning stroller. This adjustment not only resolved the immediate issue but also improved the overall assembly process, allowing for smoother integration of all components.
Process:
-
Concept Design & Drawings: Created initial drawings and concept designs for the stroller deck and base, establishing the foundational look and functionality.
-
Dimensioning & Finalization: Once the team agreed on the overall design, I dimensioned all drawings to ensure accuracy and proper fitment of components.
-
3D Modeling: Modeled each individual component of the scooter deck and stroller base in SolidWorks, including all necessary hardware like screws and bolts.
-
Assembly in SolidWorks: Assembled the individual components to create a complete model of both the scooter deck and stroller base.
-
Full Model Integration: Collaborated with team members to integrate their components into the full stroller model, creating a cohesive design in SolidWorks.
-
Animation & Simulation: Created animations to demonstrate the movement of all parts of the scooter deck and stroller base, showcasing the functionality of the stroller-scooter hybrid and how all components work together in motion.
