Pin Configuration

Component Documentation: 70 x 20 mm Robot Wheel and Tyre for 6mm shaft
Overview
The 70 x 20 mm Robot Wheel and Tyre is a robust and durable wheel designed for robotics and IoT applications. It features a 6mm shaft hole and is suitable for a wide range of robotic platforms. This documentation provides a detailed explanation of the wheel's pins and their connections.
Pinout Structure
The wheel has no electronic pins, as it is a purely mechanical component. The connection points are designed for mechanical attachment and rotation. The following points describe the structure and connection method for each pin:
1. 6mm Shaft Hole
Function: The 6mm shaft hole is designed to accept a 6mm diameter shaft or axle.
Connection Method: Insert the 6mm shaft into the hole, ensuring a secure fit. The shaft should be properly aligned and seated to prevent any wobbling or vibration.
2. Wheel Hub
Function: The wheel hub is the central part of the wheel that rotates around the 6mm shaft.
Connection Method: The wheel hub is attached to the 6mm shaft using a mechanical fastening method such as a set screw or a nut and bolt combination. Ensure the hub is securely fastened to the shaft to prevent any slippage or movement.
3. Tyre
Function: The tyre is the rubber or plastic component that provides traction and absorbs shock.
Connection Method: The tyre is pressed onto the wheel hub and secured using a mechanical fastening method such as glue, adhesive, or a mechanical interference fit. Ensure the tyre is properly seated and secured to the hub to maintain optimal performance.
Connection Diagram
Since there are no electronic pins, a connection diagram is not applicable for this component. The mechanical connections are described above.
Tips and Precautions
When attaching the wheel hub to the 6mm shaft, ensure proper alignment and secure fastening to prevent damage or breakage.
When attaching the tyre to the wheel hub, ensure a secure and even connection to maintain optimal performance and prevent slipping or vibration.
Regularly inspect the wheel and tyre for signs of wear and tear, and replace them as necessary to maintain optimal performance and prevent damage to the robotic platform.
By following these guidelines, you can successfully integrate the 70 x 20 mm Robot Wheel and Tyre into your robotic or IoT project, ensuring reliable and efficient operation.
