ME-7020 Motor Mount
Instruction Manual
Introduction
The Motor Mount is a fixture used to connect a PASCO motor, such as the High Speed Stepper Motor (PS-2976), to a PASCO structures set.
Components
Included equipment:
- 2× Motor Mounts
- 2× shaft spline adapters
- 8× 4-40 screws (not pictured)
Required equipment:
- Any of the following PASCO motors:
- High Speed Stepper Motor (PS-2976)
- Low Speed Stepper Motor (PS-2978)
- Servo Motor (SE-2975)
- Continuous Rotation Servo (SE-2977)
Setup
Connect a motor to the Motor Mount
-
Insert a shaft spline adapter onto the spline on the motor, as shown below.
-
Make sure that the four black grommets are attached to the motor, with the flat side facing out, as shown below. If they are not, install them.
-
Slide the shaft spline adapter through one of the large holes on the Motor Mount. Position the motor so the grommets line up with the four small holes in the Motor Mount, as shown in Figure 1.
TIP: Pay attention to which hole is being used, as some experiments may call for the motor to be in a specific orientation. -
Use four 4-40 screws to secure the motor bracket to the motor, as shown in Figure 1.
Connect the Motor Mount to a structure
You can attach the Motor Mount to a connector or full-round connector in a
PASCO structures set. To do this, align the hole in the triangular top of the
Motor Mount with one of the holes in the connector, then insert a screw
(provided with the structures set) into the hole and tighten to secure, as
shown in Figure 2. Note that the triangular top includes a small circular pin
which fits neatly into an indentation on the connector, making it easier to
align and secure the two components.
