Compact AIO Fan with retractable Z-Probe for E3D V6/clone Hotend
Description
[26-Feb-18] Added Main Body Source File For Customization. [22-Nov-17] Added A Smaller 4020 Fan Mount To Reduce Overall Footprint. [16-Oct-17] Trimmed The Rivet Pin To 20Mm Measuring From Cap To Tip. Updated Pics. Re-Designed Servo Mount Set V.2 Uploaded. Y Offset Reduced. Screw Mounted Micro-Switch. [10-Oct-17] Firmware Info Added [7-Oct-17] An Updated Version Of Probe Mount Is Uploaded, This Will Allow Printing Without Support. Sorry For The Mistake. I Do Realize That Some Rivets May Have Bigger Caps, And Cannot Fit In The Probe Mount. There Is A Simple Solution To This Is By Mounting The Mandrel To An Electric Drill. While Running The Drill, Use A File To Trim The Cap To Correct Size. I Use This Method To Polish The Tip. ================================ This Is A Remix From A Compact Fan Mount Designed For The E3D V6 Or Clones. I Want A Mount That Can Fit In Tight Space, Light Weight, With A Z-Probe And "Cheap". I Saw Many Designs With Different Types Of Probe, Conductive, Capacitive Or Mechanical, But None Fit My Goal Or Is Too Expensive (Bltouch Or Alike). So I Decided To Build One With Parts That I Owned Or Can Be Salvaged From My Used Stuff. Here Is The Bom List, - All Printed Parts - 30Mm Axial Fan And 50Mm Radial Blower Fan( U Should Have These Already) - 1 X 9/10G Micro Servo (The Cheapest Will Do) Like This One Https://Hobbyking.Com/En_Us/Hobbykingtm-Hk15178-Analog-Servo-1-4Kg-0-09Sec-10G.Html - Servo Extension Cable Like This Https://Hobbyking.Com/En_Us/60Cm-Servo-Lead-Extention-Jr-With-Hook-26Awg-5Pcs-Bag.Html Or Make Your Own. - 1 X 12V To 5V Dc-Dc Buck Convertor (U May Not Need This If Your Servo Does Not Cause Reset When Being Activated) - 1 X Micro Switch Like The One Shown In The Photo (I Salvaged It From A Dead Mouse'S Middle Wheel Button) - Cables And Plugs For Connecting Probe To The Ramps Board(I Use Awg24 Wire With Black Connectors(Dupont) Which Are Commonly Used In Pc) - Screws: 1 M3X35 With Nuts For Extruder Mount 1 M3X25 With Nuts For Blower Fan 1 M3X20 Self Tapping For Blower Fan 1 M2X10 Self Tapping As Push Rod(Also See Below) 9 M2.6X8 Self Tapping For Joining Parts To The Extruder Mount(Or Glue Them If U Don'T Have These Small Screws, I Salvaged Them From Several Toy Quads) - 3Mm In Length Plastic Tubing As Push Rod Spacer(I Use A Section Of Ptfe(Bowden) Tube And Trimmed It To Fit The Slot On The Probe Mount) - 1 X Aluminum Pop Rivet @ 1/8", Other Specs Will Work, But U Need To Adj The Part To Fit (U Might Need To Trim The Length, The One I Have Is Trimmed To 23Mm From The Tip Of The Pin To The Bottom Of The Cap And The Tip Is Rounded Off Using A File) During The Course Of Design, I Used These Cad Models And I Am Here To Thank Them For Their Great Works.
