32. Steering Team 32 SOAP

33. Steering Housing  Calculated the location of the steering housing-14” tall 12” from front  Based off the angle of the steering shaft, location of the front seat and height of the car

34. Steering Housing  4x4 piece of wood drilled into the floor of the car  Hood of the car rests on top of the housing  Attached steering wheel to steering shaft

35. Steering Housing  Drilled hole in the floor for the steering shaft  This allows the shaft to be attached to the linkage on the front axle

36. Underside of the Body  Consisted of a combination of our original design and a bedframe design  Decided on this after a 6-3-5 brainstorming activity

37. Underside of the Body  Used 2x2 pieces of wood and L- brackets  Will test deflection with the same test plan that was used on the old underside of the body

38. Axle Test Step 1: We placed our front axle with the steering linkage fully assembled inside a clamp to support it

39. Axle Test Step 2: Going by increments of 10 pounds, we slowly added weight to each spindle until the axle started to break

40. Axle Test Step 3: At 160 pounds the screws on either side of the wood started to rip out of the wood

41. Solutions  Change axle material  Brackets  Change orientation of U-bracket 41

42. 42 Questions/Comments

43. DFMEA (Separate into Teams)  Steering System – 720/1000 RPN Improper slip clutch setting  Durability of Brakes – 200/1000 RPN Must function properly during all day race  Wheels  Axle 43 SOAP
