@CWatters Not sure what you mean. The solution is already "Patent Pending". As the original post stated, I'm not looking for a solution...the question was about force. See Clay's post for the answer (the one I was looking for)...the torque, force, sag, or whatever, won't change regardless of...
@Clay Perreault , thanks. That was my contention...that the force would be equal in both scenarios. But when it comes to the pieces beyond the pins, I'd really like to know if it will "sag" more or less in either scenario. Assuming neither scenario causes piece A to ever touch piece B on the...
@Simon Bridge, thanks for the response but the question is not "how do I redesign this". The question is, "all else equal, if all holes (2 pins) are raised vertically 1/8" above the center-line, will the slack in the system be more, less, or the same as when the holes are all centered (as shown...
Hello All,
I have a question for which I'd like an authoritative answer, if some physics genius would be so kind. I'll try to provide as much background as I can but follow up questions for clarity are more than welcome!
So I'm working on the design for a patent application and it involves a...
