As the year of smart product blowout in 2017, smart products can be said to be various, especially the emergence of intelligent robots, which can be said to add a lot of sense of technology to our lives. I vaguely remember the robots that I could only see in cartoons when I was young, and those things that I dare not think of have become reality, As young parents of the post-80s generation, we have a playful heart just like children. The robot I bring to you this time is the IronBot Chap DIY education robot, which focuses on DIY, allowing children to create their own robots through their own manual ability, At the same time, it can also allow parents and children to assemble together, increasing the interaction between parents and children. At the same time, when the assembly is completed, it can also be freely manipulated through its own settings.

✎ Product Packaging and Unpacking

The packaging of IronBot Chap DIY educational robot is actually my favorite. This product is mainly aimed at the children's market, so it can be seen from the packaging that the manufacturer is very careful. First, its packaging box is square, and second, its color is mainly blue, On the front of the packing box, we can see that it is mainly marked with the physical picture of the product and the product name and other relevant information, because this product is in the Love to play computer games The platform has been tried out, so the logo tag of Io's trial is also posted on the left side. Here, I also thank Io's trial platform for giving this experience opportunity. In addition, the side of the product packaging box introduces the product's trust parameter information in detail. The opening of the packaging can be said to be a little "tight". It is mainly the use of damping, so a little force is used when opening, After opening, we can see that it is divided into three layers, each layer is separated by foam cotton, which is very safe.

Take a family photo of the product:

In terms of the number of accessories, there are really many. There are three layers of accessories. The accessories on each layer are different. In particular, there are many hexagonal socket screws, which can meet our matching needs.

first floor:

It mainly includes track chain * 2, track sprocket 18 teeth * 4, magnet module * 1, speed motor RS48PR * 2, angle motor RS48PR * 1, and spare track chain * 1.

✎ Product details and assembly

IronBot Chap robot is an entry-level DIY robot, which can be matched with different forms through different modules. The main feature of this robot is personalized innovation, which allows children to divergent thinking, assemble different robots, and make robots their own partners. At present, three basic forms can be assembled, namely: kickcart Four wheeled vehicle, PTZ vehicle and expansion form can also form three forms (expansion kit is required): diamond, tile and crane. It can be said that it is optional. Of course, the product is also specially designed for children, so the product workmanship is also strict and demanding. It adopts the design without edges and corners, rubber tracks, independent power chips, safety switches, overcharge protection, etc.

The first form I brought to you is the machine model called Chap Kid, which is also the most basic model. The difficulty level is marked as three stars. The machine model of Chap Kid is simple to assemble, and can be easily completed by both adults and children.

Step 1:

To assemble the machine model of Chap Kid, two speed motors should be assembled together with the motor parts. It is worth noting the position of the motor parts, and then the hexagonal socket screw M3 * 5 can be tightened with a wrench. After the speed motor is assembled, we can also assemble the angle motor in the same way.

Step 2:

Take out the car body parts in the accessories and screw two speed motors onto the car body parts. The screws used are also hexagonal socket screws M3 * 5. Refer to the following figure for specific installation methods.

Step 3:

Install the front wheel driven shaft. Insert the hexagonal socket screw M3 * 24 along the hole, and then screw the hand nut onto the M3 * 24mm screw. Note that the convex head of the hand nut faces outward, then take out the track sprocket and put it on the hand nut, and then install the bearing in the track sprocket. Tighten and fix the track sprocket with the hand nut, The installation method of the front wheel on the other side is the same.

Step 4:

Install the rear wheel. The installation principle of the rear wheel is the same as that of the front wheel, except that the screws used are different. The rear wheel can be installed on the motor head as long as the crawler wheel is installed on the motor head, and it can be tightened through the hexagonal socket screw M3 * 16.

Step 5:

Install the track chains on both sides, take out the track chains, put them on the track wheels and align the track holes on both sides. After adjusting the position, insert the prepared track pins into the corresponding holes of the track chains. The installation method of the other side is the same.

Step 6:

When installing the baffle plate, why do you want to install it? It is to prevent children from hurting their fingers by sticking their fingers into the track joint during use. The installation method is to take out the corresponding hole of the baffle plate and tighten it with the hexagonal socket screw M3 * 5.

Step 7:

Adjust the tightness of the track chain. By loosening the screws on both sides of the front wheel, adjust the track chain to the full range position.

Step 8:

Install the controller. The controller is installed at the front. Align the four screw holes of the controller with the four screw holes of the car body. One thing to note here is that the position of the light holes should be aligned, and then tighten them with the hexagonal socket screws M3 * 5.

Step 9:

Install the battery module box. The battery module box is also in the front position. On the side of the controller, tighten it with the hexagonal socket screw M3 * 5.

Step 10:

Install the U-shaped part. The installation position of the U-shaped part is actually at the top of the front of the entire robot model. Align the hole position and tighten it with the hexagonal socket screw M3 * 5.

Step 11:

After the U-shaped part is installed, the angle motor will be installed. The installation position of the angle motor is the position where the U-shaped part was just installed. After alignment, the position arrow of the angle motor will face down and then tighten it with the hexagonal socket screw M3 * 5.

Step 12:

Install the bearing, insert the bearing and tighten it with the hexagonal socket screw M3 * 8.

Step 13:

Install the magnetic suction module, which is the last step of the overall robot model. Align the magnetic suction module with the hole position and tighten it with the hexagonal socket screw M3 * 8.

In this way, our composition is complete. Of course, before this, we need to insert the connecting line of the speed motor and the connecting line of the angle motor into the control module. It is a fairly simple one-time composition. Moreover, because an independent switch is used to control the power supply, it is particularly convenient to use.
