Introduction: Simple 2 Legged Robot
I was watching the simple bot walker but I then realised i did not have a dpdt switch I then chanced upon making this solderless robot.
Step 1: What You Need
2 hundred rpm gear motors (they have plenty of torque if supplied with 9v)
2 pickle bottle caps
4 crocodile clips (optional )
1 six battery holder
2 cheap and common plastic made pens
1 box (i suggest you to use those of cardboard if being resourceful)
Step 2: Mount Those Motors
Mount those motors at the end of the box and at the center so that it balances if you donot understand see the image.
Step 3:
like this
Step 4: Spokes
Remove the cap and open the top of the pen as shown in Pic and remove the refill (lower part - we need only that) .
Step 5: Attaching Your Pen Bottom
Make sure that your pen's hollow end fits tightly on the motor's shaft, else tighten the motor's shaft by putting sume tape.
Step 6:
do it on both sides.
Step 7: Mount the Makeshift Wheels
Now take the pickle caps make a hole in it and poke it onto the pen that is connected to the motor . It should be horizontal (the wheels)
Step 8:
Do it on both of the sides.
Step 9: Crocodile Connections
Connect the black crocodile clip from one motor to the red crocodile clip of the other.
Similarly do on the next side
Step 10: BATTERY HOLDER
Place the battery holder exactly in between the Two Motors, such that the balance is maintained, and Robot stays upright.
Step 11: Let It Go
Connect the terminals to the 9v and vrooom vroooom.
