A geared trip hammer, part 6 of 7: A crank and a pump off the same train

A second job for the same motor. A crank hole on the big fast gear, a rod drawn with the Slot tool, and a block on layer 0. Two pins placed with one click each join gear to rod and rod to block, a slide keeps the block on a straight line, and on Play the pump goes up and down once for every blow of the hammer.

A geared trip hammer: the whole project

A geared trip hammer built from a blank drawing in seven steps: a frame and a hammer from rectangles with typed sizes, a cam wheel made with Array and Weld, two pairs of gears placed on the meshing ring, a pin, a motor and a crank with a slide. It shows the ordinary drawing tools and snaps, the Gear tool, layers as heights, assemblies, the Motion window's joints, the gear train's table and ratio, parts pushing each other by touch alone, weight, Check for hits and the Clearance tool, Trace, Slow motion and Save a film. Nothing in the machine is scripted to move: the motor turns one gear and everything else follows from how the parts are drawn.
