Yellow Zil Pipe Truck with Movements

Model originally uploaded to Thingiverse at https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:6271829.

This is an old school type of large material transport truck based on the Yellow Zil Truck Chassis model that I have released earlier. In that release itself I have explained how it is the universal platform on which various payloads can be added for specific function. This release contains the large material transport/pipe payload of the same.

**<ins>If you have already downloaded and printed Yellow Zil Truck Chassis model, You would only need " Pipe_Truck_payload.3mf" file and Please skip to the title **</ins> ASSEMBLY OF PAYLOAD.

#<ins>Three ways to print

1. As single piece:- Please download STL file but there wont be any movements.

2. Multiple Pieces :- Download 3mf file with Full_dismantled.3mf.** BEST QUALITY OUTPUT**. Please use the 3mf file for assembly also.

3. Combined:- You may use any 3D viewer software like 3D builder in windows to merge components according to your printer and filaments. The sky is the limit for this.

#<ins>ASSEMBLY OF PAYLOAD There are two stages of assembly.Follow the GIFs for assembly of payload. ##1)<ins>MAIN RIG ASSEMBLY

##2)<ins>FOLLOWER RIG ASSEMBLY The size of pipe is 32.2mm outerdia and 28,2mm Inner dia. If you have any plastic pipes around, maybe you can think of scaling the model to make use of those pipes. Also you can substitute pipes with objects like wind mill blades.

#<ins>MATING WITH CHASSIS Follow the GIF for mating of payload with truck chassis. You can reuse the bolt securing the Bed in the Yellow Zil Truck Chassis model to secure the payload. But you have to print some spacers. You should use small black rope to secure the pipes. I have given branches to tie the rope.

#<ins>Movements Included

1. Front Wheel Steering
2. Engine Bay Cover Swing Open
3. Rotating Fifth wheels of Rigs

NOTE <ins>The tolerances to some elements are zero which has been intensionally provided to friction lock the elements while not in movements. You may have to fine tune the tolerance from your end using scaling funtion in slicer to ensure good fit without compromising movements.This also applies for the pins that make rotation possible between elements. Please proceed with printing all the pins after testing printing a pin and testing the fit of a joint. You should be able to find the adequate scaling factor with this.</ins>

The main body is made hollow to ensure filament savings.

Supports should be provided as required.
