Attention

The COVERS ARE COMPATIBLE and on the other design are more optimzed ones...! https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3903285 Hello and thanks for the amazing interest on @twitter Here is the Universal holder and some information about it. "HOLY" stands for "Helix of last year" - thanks to Flo

Read this carefully, Thanks

Update 05.11.2019

Updated Cover with a _thin and a _ultra_thin version. What does it mean? The Perimeters are smaller, less infill. Try it in your slicer and use which version you like

Where it fits?

It is designed to fit every LNB with an horn+plastic diameter of 60mm.

The Cover

The cover is design to be printed like it is arranged, screw part down, WITHOUT support! At the upper inner side is extra material with an angle of 65° overhang to make support not necessary. The photos show 30% infill - Full honeycomb

The Reflector

For the reflector. i added the DXF /DWG file for your use with a CNC or other purpose. Also added a picture with all dimensions

The helix holder

It is designed to FOLLOW the helix. As wire, i used 10mm² , it has a diameter of ~3,5mm. The holes on the holder are 4mm, so the helix fits with little space.

Bend Helper

To make it easier to bend the helix, i also added the Helix Maker. It is a helper to bend the wire with the correct angle and diameter. wrap the wire tied arounf the helper and you are good to go.

Main Holder

i printed it with the screw side down. Then the surface where later the reflector sits is the support surface and a little rough but later behind the reflector. The outer surface is then as smooth as your printer is doing its job. But you can print like you want. Please print it with "Support from build platform only" settings , there is NO need to support the thread. 29.10.2019: Pictures added

Screw to hold it together

For the N-Connecter i ised a flange with 18mm distance between the holes. thats standard small size n-connector. to screw it to the reflector i use M3x4mm with a 2mm aluminium reflector The Helix Holder is screwed with the reflector between to the main holder with M4x10 or M4x16. I use for the inner screw a M4x16 , the outer M4x10 - Use what you want.

Reflector - Main Holder

Next to the N-Connector is a M4 thread in the reflector! That is used to screw the reflector against the main holder across the Helix Holder to hold it while you screw your cable to the connecter, otherwise if you push too hard, you could bend the reflector to the inside.

Questions?

Hope not. if i missed something, please drop me an email! i am not very often on thingiverse and so your message will be lost. Write me an email!

Which version you need?

The 60mm Version is for a small N-Connector /TNC/BNC with 12,7mm hole to hole distance.

BUT

the position of the connector is 2,5mm moved to the side to not collide with the LNB, this must be compensated with the transmission line! The 60mm TNC Version is for all Connectors with a sinlge central hole like some N-Type , F-Type etc. The hole is 10mm in the file and if you need something different, you have to edit it. The Position of the Hole is 32,5mm away from the helix end and in the correct position for standard 32mm transmission line! You know which one you need. If you need a modified version? Write me an email! Hope you enjoy the design and leave a positiv feedback and ALSO your MAKES.
