Fig. 4.8 Visualisation of a fully assembled muscle unit.

4.1.2. Step 1: Mount the plain bearings into the housing

../_images/image138.png

Fig. 4.9 Install the gliding bearings into the muscle housing.

Put the plain bearing (1) and the clip plain bearings (2) into the housing.

Put the two M2 inserts (3) in the holes of the housing.

4.1.3. Step 2: Assemble the pulley yoke and the spring guide shaft

../_images/image139.png

Fig. 4.10 Assemble the pulley yoke and displacement or spring guide shaft

Put screw glue into the screw thread of the pulley yoke (1) and connect it with the threaded rod (2).

Stick the magnetic strip (3) in the longitudinal groove in the spring guide shaft (4). The magnetic strip should be as near as possible to the pulley yoke as you can see in the example.

Slide the washer (5) down the threaded rod to the pulley yoke.

Slide the pulley yoke with the threaded rod from the right through the clip plain bearings (6) and put it in position.

Slide the spring guide shaft from the left through the clip plain bearings so that the threaded rod passes in its middle. Fix the rod on the shaft with the nut and washer (7).

4.1.4. Step 3: Mount the spring

../_images/image140.png

Fig. 4.11 Mount the spring.

Slide first the spring (1) then the spacer sleeve (2) from the left over the spring guide shaft (4) axle.

Use the washer (3) to push the spacer sleeve until it starts to preload the spring.

Then fix in place with the wing nut (5).

4.1.5. Step 4: Assemble the cross-guide

../_images/image141.png

Fig. 4.12 Assemble the cross guide of the displacement shaft.

Insert the plain bearings (1) into the guide-roller (2) and insert the cylindrical pin (3).

Insert this assembly into the cross-guide (4).

Mount the cross-guide (4) into the housing.

Then screw in the two screws (5) to hold it in place.

4.1.6. Step 5: Assemble the cover

../_images/image142.png

Fig. 4.13 Assemble the muscle cover and tendon guide.

Press the three M3 inserts (1) into the cover (2).

Insert the plain bearings (3) in the cover and place the printed pulley (4) between the plain bearings.

Fix the printed pulley to the cover by inserting the cylindrical pin (5) through both the pulley and the plain bearing. The pin must be pressed in the pulley.

4.1.7. Step 6: Mount the cover and the pulleys on the housing

../_images/image143.png

Fig. 4.14 Placement of guiding pulleys in muscle housing.

Insert the screws (2) and (3) from the back of the housing in holes (a), (b) and (c). One black screw (3) must be in hole (a).

The other black screw (3) goes in hole (c) as an axle for one of the bearings (1) and other black screw in hole (a) acts as another axle for the other bearing (1).

Mount the cover (4) on the housing and tighten all screws. Make sure that the brass pulley can still rotate freely.

4.1.8. Step 7: Mount the reel on the motor shaft

../_images/image144.png

Fig. 4.15 Fixing tendon reel on motor shaft.

Put screw glue on the setscrew (2).

Mount the reel (1) using the setscrew on the shaft of the motor (3).

4.1.9. Step 8: Mount the motor and the motor driver board

../_images/image145.png

Fig. 4.16 Mounting motor and driver board to muscle housing

Use the three screws (1) to mount the motor to the housing.

Connect the motor to the motor driver board (2).

Mount the board with the screws (3) to the housing.

4.1.10. Step 9: Connect to the dispacement sensor to the Motor board

../_images/image146.png

Fig. 4.17 Mounting of the displacement sensor on the muscle unit and cabling to the motor driver board.

The motor board (3) should already be attached by the screws in previous step.

Insert the DS header (displacement sensor pins) on wire (2) into the displacement sensor (1).

Then the MD header (motor driver board pins) on wire (2) into the motor board.

Then place the displacement sensor (1) into the slot on top of the housing unit and secure it using the wedge (4) as shown in the photo on the right.

The side of the displacement sensor shown Fig. 4.17 should be on the inside of the muscle houseing, close to the magnetic strip on the displacement shaft.
