We are working on our launch system for our backyard coaster. Using a scale version is a good way to minimize risk and maximize learning curve. Let's look at step 1 of making this launch system a reality.

Backyard Coaster Control Box Build for PLC

So we're building this new spectacular coaster Tilley's Terror and the controls will be expensive. We want to layout our control box without wasting material, so how do we do that. Quite simple, we use the paper doll method.

PLC Control System for Our Backyard Coaster

While it may not be glamorous, programming the PLC and HMI is an integral part of the Tilley's Terror Project. This coaster is going to rival a real coaster with its control system.

    Dear Mr. Corey, first I would like to congrats your content. This is very dynamic guide to determine the dimensions of the mecanism. I read your article on your website and I have one doubt. Why did you use the distance 30,49 inch as cylinder moment arm? I thought that the cylinder moment arm would be the 39,5 inch. Can you help me to understand this point please?

    • @MentoredEngineer
      @MentoredEngineer Месяц назад

      Yes, the moment is the cross product (perpendicular distance) between the force of the cylinder and it's pivot. That distance is the one shown at 30.36 from the pivot to the cylinder's line of action. Please keep in mind that this will change as the cylinder extends. However, it is usually the worst case at the ends of the stroke.

      The propane tank is directly under the tub, but needs to be 10' away from the heater by code. That's why the long lines.

    Interested in how you increase SM without increasing the area moment of inertia...did you post a video that explains this? Also, what would be benefit of this? Thanks.

    • @MentoredEngineer
      @MentoredEngineer 3 месяца назад

      Generally speaking, SM will increase with AMoI. I believe the desire is to gradually add material so that it will change the stress flow pattern. Adding material at the neutral axis allows for limited stress concentrations and then tapering it to the edge has minimal effect on the existing structure.

    is there a set distance that the gusset needs to travel along the horizontal bar to be sufficient enough for support? say on a 20ft long carport roof?

    • @MentoredEngineer
      @MentoredEngineer 3 месяца назад

      The general idea is to have gradual transitions. The angle of 22.5° works well in most cases. I will usually start the gusset at the neutral axis and then taper the leg at 22.5° until I get past the edge of the horizontal tube.

  • @natelong1276
    @natelong1276 3 месяца назад

    I know this is an older video but I am hoping it is still monitored and you can help me out here. I have went down the bit hole of planetary gears and have watched several different videos and I am confused by what I think is conflicting information (more likely me just misunderstanding) From online the gear ratio from sun to stator/carrier GR = 1 + (number of ring teeth/number of sun teeth). I believe the gear ratio also = driver speed / driven speed. In the case of a locked ring gear, and using the teeth number from your examples, the gear ratio, GR, for from sun to stator would be = 1+ (100/20) = 6. If it is also true the GR = driver speed / driven speed, then the stator rotational speed would then be = driver speed / 6, or 16.667%. In your example, you arrive at the fact that the stator is rotating at 40% of the sun, which is different. Can you possibly clear this up for me? Like I said, I figure I can chalk this up to my misunderstanding but I like answers haha

    • @MentoredEngineer
      @MentoredEngineer 3 месяца назад

      Nate, thanks for the inquiry. The number of teeth will indicate the ratio because they are all tied together. Check out this article mentoredengineer.com/calculate-planetary-gear-ratios/ and others on mentoredengineer.com for more information on this subject

  • @Vibing2
    @Vibing2 4 месяца назад

    Tip: to prevent those moments where the passengers head goes off the seat, make the track turn at most 40° into the pivot point! The g forces would be curved so if the track is facing that curve more that it is in this video, it wouldn’t push the passenger like that.

      The input in both stages is the sun. Stage 1 is the motor shaft. The stage 2 sun is connected to the stage 1 carrier. THe ring is held steady, but if the torque is to much, it will rotate.

    • @MentoredEngineer
      @MentoredEngineer 4 месяца назад

      Yes, you are referring to LIM motors and they are the first generation of linear motors. There are many roller coasters that use them like Possessed at Dorney Park and Flight of Fear at Kinds Dominion. They are very innefficient and not at all precise as they allow slippage. (LSMs do not) BTW -I believe you mean inductance and not reluctance

    While the second half of the video has some very relevant suggestions, I do feel that it is not necessarily adding credibility when you state outright that you prefer hand calculations in a video about doing less FEA and more hand calculations (conflict of interest, no?). An FE specialist is unlikely to suggest that hand calculations are a waste of time, on the other hand. I would imagine that what you pointed out for the hand calculations (i.e. that they take a lot of time in the beginning but become quicker over time and experience) apply equally to finite elements calculations, no? Especially since a finite element model can provide significantly more information relative to the time spent.
