Clamp subassembly

Our names are https://grabcad.com/gonzalo.silva-8, https://grabcad.com/elian.manieri-1, https://grabcad.com/maria.paz.cresta-1 and https://grabcad.com/lucia.driuzzi-3, and we are mechanical engineering students at the Faculty of Exact Sciences, Engineering, and Surveying (FCEIA) of the National University of Rosario, Santa Fe, Argentina (UNR): FCEIA-UNR (https://web.fceia.unr.edu.ar/es/). This work is part of our participation in the NASA Robotic Assembly and Outfitting for Space Missions challenge, directed by Professor https://grabcad.com/marcelo.valderrey-1 , and corresponds to the edition of this subject taken during the second quarter of 2024. We have modified the TLT voxel to add a pipe support system. This support connects to the voxel using the same fixtures that the voxels use to attach to each other. The pipe support consists of rings that snap into place, and these rings can have any diameter depending on the pipe that needs to be secured. This design has the advantage that the same robot assembling the voxels could add the support rings to the assembly since they use the same type of connection to join together. However, a second robot will be needed to hold the pipe while pressing the rings to ensure a secure fit. To generate visual support and simulations, we used the CAD tools recommended by NASA. We have attached videos and images where the support can be hanging, lateral, or in a horizontal position.
