Even though the robot contains three main components, there are a lot more components that contribute to the overall movement of the turtle robot.
Valve Body and Valve Piston
Auxiliary Component to the Valve: Stopper
The stopper is the component that will restrict the movement of the piston.
Function: Ensure the piston stop at the correct location so that air will not flow out from the valve.
Figure 3.3 shows the stopper for the valve component
Top Shell and Bottom Shell
Figure 3.4.1a shows the top shell.
Figure 3.4.1b shows the bottom shell.
The figures on the left shows final design of the shell. Figure 3.4.1a, is the top shell and Figure 3.41b, is the bottom shell
Scissor Mechanism
Figure 3.5 shows he scissor mechanism is the conponent in the turtle robot that will generate movement.
Slope with 0 degree angle
Figure 3.6 shows is the component where the scissor mechanism will slides on and provide housing the one-directional wheel.
