    7. How to Play After assembling , let’s play. SPIN SHOOTER SPIN SHOOTER is able to keep the ball inside and shoot it out. It will be fun to play games with friends. ● Suggested games In order to play a game, there must be rules. The rules will vary in different types of games. The following examples are games and their rules.

  • Page 24: Ⅱ.technical Data

    Ⅱ.Technical Data SPIN SHOOTER is able to make various movements by using three motors. How are the motors controlled? In this section, let’s talk about the SPIN SHOOTER’s controller mechanism. 1. Explanation of Controller ・ About the controller SPIN SHOOTER is able to move forward, backward, rotate and shoot the ball by controlling the motor’s rotating direction, with three switches on the controller.
  • Page 25 ・ To turn on the motor PCB printed pattern. When the switch contact is pushed, it connects with the printed pattern and the electric current will flow. The direction Connecting to this Regular rotation of the elec- side makes the reg- tric current ular rotation.

  • Page 26: Explanation Of Mechanism

    2. Explanation of Mechanism SPIN SHOOTER uses the “gear mechanism,” which transmits the rotational power from the motor to the legs and rotors. Gears are used for many devices around you. They have not only the function to transmit the power but other important roles. Here are various functions of the gears.

The speed is reduced to one-fourth. 3) Changing the torque the number of motor Lever...

  • Page 28: Ⅲ. Explanation Of Molding

    Ⅲ. Explanation of Molding 1. Molding Procedure The robot has many plastic parts for its body and the controller. There are many plastic products around you also. When you compare the same plastic parts from the same products, you can see they have exactly the same form. Otherwise, the parts could not fit with the matching parts or the products would have uneven quality.
  • Page 29 ・ Extrusion molding Extrusion molding is used for plain plastic parts, such as plastic sticks and boards. A plastic stick is made through pressing out the melted plastic from a round opening. The board is made through a thin flat opening. Changing the shape of the opening, various kinds of plastic can be made. The section deciding the shape is called a die .

    2. Molded Plastic Parts The plastic parts made by these molding techniques have some characteristics. You can find them on the parts used for this robot as well as other plastic parts around your house. Here, the typical phenomena is explained in the case of injection molding. ・...
  • Page 31 ・ Weld line As explained in the previous pages, the molds have the shape exactly opposite of the plastic part. Therefore, to make a projection on the plastic, the mold must have a hole for it, and to make a hole in the plastic, the mold needs to have a pin for it. When the mold has the pin, it will divide the stream of the melted plastic.

  • Page 32: Ⅳ. Explanation Of Motors

    Ⅳ. Explanation of Motors There are many things which use motors around us. For example, a mobile phone uses a motor for the vibration mechanism. A fan inside of a hair dryer is turned by a motor. Motors are also used to turn wheels of a train. If there were no motors in the world, our present life would not be as it is.

  • Page 34: Types Of Motors

    3. Types of Motors There are many ways to group motors. If they are grouped by power source, they can be divided into DC motors, which use direct current, and AC motors, which use alternating current. If they are grouped by kinetic principles, they can be divided into electromagnetic motors, which use electromagnetic power, and electric motors, which do not use electromagnetic power.
