  3. A Mechanical Toy Design

  4. A Mechanical Toy Design Learning Opportunities: To introduce pupils to basic mechanisms / mechanical movement such as cams, cranks, linkages etc. To develop basic design and research skills; To develop manufacturing skills through a range of workshop processes. Activity Description: Theory: The pupils study mechanisms for approximately 3 x 35min periods; Manufacture: To manufacture a number of the models parts from set working drawings; AppliedDesign: To design and manufacture the body of the toy. Use templates / jigs where necessary. Mechanisms

  5. A Mechanical Toy Monkey • Design Opportunities: • Show using concept sketches two alternative designs • for the monkey’s body • Explain using graphics the mechanical solution to making the • toy move when the crank is rotated. Include notes / annotation. • Show how adjustments may be made to the mechanism • to make the monkey move higher? • Design a base for the mechanical monkey from acrylic sheet • measuring ---- x ------ • e) Show examples of where an interference-fit and a clearance-fit • is used in this project? • f) Name suitable materials for the base and body of this toy • design? • g) State a suitable protective finish for this project?
