Subject: [PSUBS-MAILIST] Mushroom Vent
CAD Assembly Options
Greetings
SMMOMs,
I've been working on a
number of different ways to configure my version of a Mushroom vent for the
front and rear MBT's on my K-250. This is the one I like the best so
far.
http://cid-5085d10eb6afe47c.skydrive.live.com/browse.aspx/Plunger%20Assembly
http://cid-5085d10eb6afe47c.skydrive.live.com/browse.aspx/Mushroom%20Vent%20Concept%20Main%20Assembly
It's
mostly made up of 1/4" X 1" 316 SS bar stock, and 1" thick black UHMW.
So the goal is for it to be easy and affordable to make and
assemble. I made a mock up of the single line, spring loaded pneumatic
cylinder Vance was talking about, which I would like to use in this
assembly. I will need to trim away some material on the
plunger land, and the piece cut out when I made the whole in
the FRP MBT, that meets the bottom of the FRP MBT, and then attach
them with Seka flex and SS screws. This way I can have a clean look on
the top area of the MBT's, and the angle I have to mount the vent on aids in
letting almost all the air out. The very small air pockets left I'm thinking
will not be an issue. I thought mounting the vent this way would be better for
my application, since the knuckle curvature of the heads and the high point of
the MBT's are in the same area.
I'm interested in your guys
thoughts on this concept design. I've uploaded three screen capture clips of
the assembly animated on Youtube. The quality is not that great on
Youtube, so if anyone would like better quality versions of these clips, let
me know off list and I'll send them to you.
