Hang mech design

Hello everyone! Our team has an idea for a hang mech but we would like to see some photos of other peoples hangs to see if we can combine components to make a truly great hang me h. Thanks so much for taking the time to read to right here.

I don’t have the diagram on me, but one of the plans we came up with was having flex wheels in the middle underside of the robot and pto them to our drivetrain. When the endgame starts, our robot would drive up to the pole, push and rotate itself 90 deg. against the pole, have a flex wheel flip out, and “drive up” the pole.

Wow, that’s really unique. Our idea was to attach standoffs to a bar that can be move up by a motor, then we hook the bar, and once it is hooked we collapse the bar on the elevation, which lifts us up.

I may have a really unique design for a B-tier hanging meach that could be pretty simple. So my hanging mech is completely passive and how it works is my launcher will lift up and then my hanging arm will be at the height to hang. The arm is rubberbanded down enough to lift the robot and held by high-strength axles. When the robot runs into the bar the axles will move out from under the arm and hang the robot.

Here are some photos please don’t hole count.

This mechanism is completely passive and uses no positions or motors to hang other than the one piston that lifts the launcher.
