TKR-Grid I/F Design Options (key decision) Conical bushing (concept 1) favored for corner flexures Issue: Imparted loads due to enforced displacement – need to look into maximum allowable enforced skew of TKR bottom tray Issue: imparted hoop stressed in flexure Action for Tom Borden: how to modify tooling to put conic into existing flexures (enough room for taper?) Action – ensure taper is not a self-locking taper Action – check loads on flexure and bottom tray Liquid Shim at side flexures (zero tolerance plus positive locking) – need to ream existing holes to achieve clearance or grind down shoulder, plus injection port, split washer, etc. Action – Martin to talk with Rob Black regarding injection and liquid shim 0.551”
