Bike handlebar mount for GoPro style fitting action camera

RumDogLogoNew1

Another update on the handlebar GoPro mount, which the initial prototypes proved the function. I’ve updated the parts, the integrated 3D printed hinge works very well, the tensioner required a little increase in size to allow easier manipulation. After tweaking the body, it can now be printed without any support material, with the domed interior being replaced with a cone tangential to the sphere, allowing it to be printed as an overhangwhile retaining most of the surface for tensioning the ball joint.

The product consists of four 3D printed parts, as can be seen on the exploded view below.

*Details coming soon*

This mount has an integral 3D printed hinge for the handlebar attachment, no additional moving parts or fixings required for attachment. The main body itself, the insert & fixing system is also 3D printed. The spherical joint within the main body is integral to the functions of this mount, it allows rotational movement & can be interchanged with other mounting options, for different parts of a bicycle, or even a kayak.

Prototype parts being tested now, more details before the end of the year.
