BATTERYPLATE Part

The BATTERYPLATE is a critical plastic part. The BATTERYPLATE:

• Aligns the LENS assembly.

• Creates an electrical connection between the BATTERY and LENS.

Design the BATTERYPLATE. Utilize features from the BATTERY to develop the

BATTERYPLATE. The BATTERYPLATE is manufactured as an injection molded

plastic part. Build Draft into the Extruded Boss/Base

features.

Edit the BATTERY features. Create two holes from

the original sketched circles. Apply the Instant3D

tool to create an Extruded Cut feature.

Modify the dimensions of the Base feature. Add a 3°

draft angle.

, ,/

-;Q~ A sand pail contains a draft angle. The draft

angle assists the sand to leave the pail when the pail

is flipped upside down.

Insert an Extruded Boss/Base feature. Offset the

center circular sketch.

The Extruded Boss/Base feature contains the LENS.

Create an inside draft angle. The draft angle assists

the LENS into the Holder.

Insert a Face Fillet and a Multi-radius Edge Fillet to

remove sharp edges. Plastic parts require smooth

edges. Group Fillet features together into a folder.

Perform a Draft Analysis on the part and create the

Core and Cavity mold tooling.

, ,/

-;Q~ Group fillets together into a folder to locate

them quickly. Features listed in the FeatureManager

must be continuous in order to be placed as a group

into a folder.
