Set 5 - Gears, Pulleys & Machines Price: $985.00
Cogworks Set5 provides the necessary spark to get middle and high school students enthused about simple and complex machines. Set 5's unique design features include a 20" by 20" rectangular matrix board with a plethora of tapped insert holes. Set 5 includes all the parts listed in the Set5 kit list tabulated in the left green window. Set5 comes with a dovetailed storage case with sliding front and back covers. Please see the Set10 description for a full explanation of the stacked pulley/gear system.
Set5 can be configured in horizontal
and vertical positions. The 1" thick
matrix board can be conveniently stored in the Set5 storage case.
Supplied torque beams allow the matrix canvass to be extended off
the board area to promote further innovation. Hardwood feet
, stored in the Set5 case, allow the matrix board to be positioned vertically.
Set 5 - Table top horizontal design (left) and design using hardwood feet & supplied torque bars(right).
Set5 - Matrix board storage & back of hardware parts tray.
Below size comparison of Set5 versus Set10 case . Set 5 weight is approx 50lbs fully stuffed with gears, pulleys, spacers, tools, connectors, torque beams, weights, posts, shaft collars etc. All hardware is brass & stainless steel. The vertically sliding front and rear covers lock all the parts in place so nothing can move. The sliding sides have two interchangeable sides, one finely finished birch and the other side laminated with the finest quality marker board. The case doubles as a two sided blackboard which always seems to come in handy. Sides shown marker board out in picture.
Set 5 - Tutorial building the machine design called " Discovery"
The best way to learn is to do it. Below are the step by step instructions to make a creation with Set5. We have many tutorials that can deeply explore mechanical motion & machines.
Step 1- Screw in the Posts.
The post position is identified by column, alphabetically from left to right. The student finds the column and then counts down the required number of holes to identify the correct post hole. The correct unit length post ( 1U, 2U, 3U, 4U, 5U or 6U) is then inserted. "Discovery" required 11 posts in total. Post positions and unit length are given below.
A8-2U, C13-3U, D5-3U, F8-1U, G3-3U, K5-1U, K10-5U, N4-4U, O12-3U, Q5-4U and Q9-4U.
After completion the board should look like the picture.
Note: Posts should be tightened in place by the cogworks wrench.
Step 2- First Layer of Pulleys & Gears
Install the Qty 3 6cm pulleys, Qty3 12cm-24 tooth gears, Qty 2 6cm-12 tooth gears. Install brass "1U" spacers on any post without a gear or pulley. Inserts brass close coupled drive pins on the gears and pulleys as shown. Attach Belt17 ( "17" is length in cm), coded green. Install stainless steel shaft collar on any fully populated post.
Step
3- Second Layer of Pulleys & Gears
Install the gears, pulleys and spacers as shown. Attach Belt14 ( "14" is length in cm), coded red. Install stainless steel shaft collar on any fully populated post.
Step 4- Third Layer of Pulleys & Gears
Install the gears, pulleys and spacers as shown. Attach additional Belt14 coded red and Belt17 coded green. Install stainless steel shaft collar on any fully populated post.
Step 5- Fourth Layer of Pulleys & Gears
Install the gears, pulleys and spacers as shown. Attach Belt16 color coded orange. Install stainless steel shaft collar on any fully populated post.
Step 6- Add the crank !!
Step 7- Add reference markers via brass knurled screws, crank and study the motion !! Please click on picture to see in motion.
