Tea Gallows | Tea Timer with PCB

par RBEPrinter

Fichiers imprimables (12)

Description

This is a small tea timer that uses a linear drive to pull out the gallon of the tea.
I used a small geared stepper motor to drive the linear drive. The 10 leds indicate the timer state and over a knob you can set the time 1-10 minutes.

1st UPDATE

I made some changes at the back cover and I added a small plate to hold a pcb.
An other part I've modified (changed the length) of the gallon holder.

2nd UPDATE

I made some changes to the top/bottom covers and added a belt guide to place two endstop switches and some other small changes

3rd UPDATE

I added the latest version and include the Fusion360 files too

4th UPDATE

Added simple Arduino test sketch. Design of an simple pcb is in progress

5th UPDATE

I added a simple pcb and eagle project. I replaced the Arduino with an ESP8266 12E to make other ideas possible, like Alexa integration.

Later on I will post a short manual how to build this thing
