5. Kokoamisohjeet

The YP100 tank chassis is provided as an unassembled kit. Follow these general steps for assembly. Refer to the provided images for visual guidance.

  1. Valmistele komponentit: Unpack all components and lay them out. Identify the chassis panels, motors, drive wheels, bearing wheels, tracks, and screw set.
  2. Assemble Chassis Frame: Connect the main aluminum alloy panels using the provided screws and nuts to form the basic chassis structure. Ensure all connections are snug but do not overtighten.
  3. Install Motors: Mount the two DC motors to the designated motor brackets on the chassis. Secure them firmly with screws.
  4. Attach Drive Wheels: Fasten the aluminum alloy drive wheels to the motor shafts. Ensure they are properly aligned.
  5. Install Bearing Wheels: Attach the ten plastic bearing wheels to the side panels of the chassis. These wheels support the tracks and distribute weight.
  6. Mount Tracks: Carefully fit the engineering plastic tracks around the drive wheels and bearing wheels on both sides of the chassis. The tracks are designed to be freely removable, allowing for adjustments.
  7. Lopputarkastukset: Once assembled, check all screws for tightness and ensure that the tracks move freely without obstruction.

6. Moottorin liitäntä

Properly connecting the motors is crucial for the functionality of your robot. Refer to the diagram below for detailed wiring instructions, especially if your motors include encoders.

Motor connection instruction diagram showing Hall sensor and motor power wiring
Figure 7: Motor Connection Diagram.
  • VM: Power for motor (connect to motor positive).
  • GM: GND for motor (connect to motor negative).
  • V: Power for Hall sensor (connect to Hall sensor positive, typically 3-5V).
  • G: GND for Hall sensor (connect to Hall sensor negative).
  • S1: Signal from the 1st Hall sensor.
  • S2: Signal from the 2nd Hall sensor.

Ensure correct polarity for both motor power and Hall sensor connections to prevent damage to the motor or your control board.

7. Käyttöohjeet

The YP100 is a chassis kit, meaning its operation depends on the control system you integrate. Here are general guidelines:

  1. Virtalähde: Connect a suitable power source (e.g., 18650 batteries in the provided battery box) to your motor driver board and microcontroller. Ensure the voltage matches your chosen motors and electronics.
  2. Ohjausjärjestelmän integrointi: Integrate your chosen microcontroller (e.g., Arduino, Raspberry Pi) with a motor driver to control the two DC motors. The chassis supports 2 control channels.
  3. Ohjelmointi: Develop or upload code to your microcontroller to control motor speed and direction. If using encoder motors, incorporate encoder readings for precise speed and position control.
  4. Testaus: Before full deployment, test the robot's movement in a controlled environment. Verify forward, backward, left, and right turns.

8. Huolto

  • Puhtaus: Regularly clean the tracks and wheels to remove dust, dirt, and debris that can hinder movement or damage components.
  • Kiinnittimen tarkistus: Periodically inspect all screws and fasteners to ensure they are tight. Vibrations during operation can cause them to loosen.
  • Telaketjun kireys: Check the tension of the tracks. They should be taut enough to not slip but not so tight as to put excessive strain on the motors or wheels.
  • Moottorin tarkastus: Listen for unusual noises from the motors. If any issues are detected, disconnect power and inspect for obstructions or damage.

9. Vianmääritys

  • Robot does not move:
    • Check power supply to the motor driver and microcontroller.
    • Verify all motor connections (VM, GM) are secure and correctly polarized.
    • Ensure the motor driver is receiving control signals from the microcontroller.
    • Check for any physical obstructions preventing track movement.
  • Erratic movement or incorrect speed:
    • If using encoder motors, check the Hall sensor connections (V, G, S1, S2).
    • Review your control code for logical errors in motor control or encoder interpretation.
    • Ensure sufficient power is supplied to the motors, especially under load.
  • Tracks slipping or coming off:
    • Check track tension; adjust if too loose.
    • Ensure all bearing and drive wheels are securely attached and aligned.
    • Avoid operating on surfaces with excessive friction or obstacles that could derail tracks.

10. Käyttäjävinkkejä

  • This kit is highly customizable. Consider adding Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, or other control equipment to enhance functionality. Compatible control kits can often be found from the same seller.
  • For detailed assembly guides and additional documentation, visit wiki.doit.am.
  • When assembling, organize screws and small parts to avoid loss, as the kit is shipped unassembled for transport convenience.
