Automated window blinds
Description
I Created This To Automate My Window Blinds. The Mg995/996180* That The Servo Alone Would Travel Was Not Enough So I Created A Gearbox. When Printing Flip The Gearbox 90* So That The Flat Side With The Two Holes Is On Your Build Plate. **See Update Below** This Slides Directly Into The End Of The Window Blinds And Replaces The Mechanism To Rotate The Blinds. Jan-2021 - I Have Updated These Again. The Version Of Blinds That Home Depot Is Selling Now Require The 2021 Geared Servo Blinds Gearbox. **Important!** I Updated The Gears With This Latest Version To Both Have 16 Teeth And Use A Different And More Powerful Servo. Ds3218 Servos Available From A Number Of Sellers (Amazon) Have 270* Of Rotation And Do Not Need A Ratio Provided By The Gears... Now Both Gears Are 16T And There Is More Than Enough Power And Rotation For The Blinds. Feb-3-2017 I Have Updated A Variation Which Should Work For Older Blinds With The Rotation Rod Centered Down The Length Of The Blind. It Needs A Bit More Tweaking To Work If You Want To Slide The Mechanism To The Middle Of The Blind, It Should Work Well Though On The End As A Cartridge. Offset_Geared_Servo_Blinds.Stl Works On My Newer Blinds. Centered_Geareed_Servo_Blinds.Stl Works On My Older Blinds. Please See My Thread Over At Smartthings.
