Lesson 4 – Advanced Design II This lesson consists of modeling two parts: Frame Suspension Mount
Objectives After completing this lesson, you will be able to: Create unconsumed sketches and geometry to define a frame skeleton. Use the Frame Generator panel and use its Insert tool to define frame members. Use the Miter, Trim-Extend, and Notch tools to refine frame member intersections. Create a part within an assembly. Use the Isolate tool. Create an adaptive part.
About the Frame Generator The Frame Generator is accessible within Autodesk Inventor assembly files in its own panel of tools. Frames are based upon unconsumed 2D and 3D sketches and edges of model geometry. Together the sketches and edges make up what is termed the frame skeleton. Each segment of the skeleton is used to define a frame member. Tools such as Miter, Trim-Extend, and Notch are used to refine the intersections of the frame members. The Frame Generator offers a more productive method for creating frames, as compared to basic methods such as Sweep and Extrude.

Make a Solid for the Upper Frame 1. Create a work plane parallel to the YZ plane and containing the first cross member.
2. Create the following sketch. Note that the two angled lines have an equal constraint applied.

3. Extrude the sketch 670 mm toward the front of the frame.
Create a Front Hoop Sketch 1. Create the following sketch on the YZ plane.
2. Save the file as Frame.ipt. Autodesk® Formula Car Design
7
Open the Frame Generator Panel 1. Open a new Standard (mm) .iam assembly file. 2. Use the Place Component tool to bring Frame.ipt into the assembly. 3. Open the Frame Generator panel.
The Frame Generator panel contains tools for creating and refining frame members.
Create the Base Frame Members To help visibility when creating the frame base, the solid portion of the skeleton will be suppressed. 1. Edit Frame.ipt and suppress the extrusion.

2. 3. 4. 5. 6.
Finish the edit and return to the assembly. Save the file as Frame Assembly.iam Click Insert on the Frame Generator panel. Select ISO Standard 4019 Square Tubing with a size of 25x25x2. Select each of the sketch segments around the frame perimeter.
7. Leave the Merge option unselected. Click OK to create the frame. Note the files being created in the Create New Frame dialog box. The frame itself is saved into Frame 0001.iam. The frame skeleton is placed in a part file called Skeleton00001.ipt.
8. Click OK to accept the file naming scheme.

The Frame Member Naming dialog box is displayed showing the name of the frame members. Note: Had the Merge option been selected, only one part file would have been created. The Merge option has the advantage of automatically applying miters; however, the frame would exist as one part file rather than ten. Having distinct part files can be useful when it comes to creating drawings for each member.
Miter the Corners
Click the Miter tool and select each pair of connecting members in turn.
Create and Trim the Cross Members 1. Click Insert to start the Frame Generator. 2. Select the four cross member sketch lines. Click OK. Four more frame member part files are generated. 3. Look closely at the intersections between the cross braces and the base frame. The cross members extend into the outer frame members.

4. Click the Trim-Extend To Face tool. 5. Select both of the rear cross braces. 6. Click the trim face.

7. Use the Trim-Extend To Face tool to trim the other side.
Trim the Central Cross Member The central cross member needs to be trimmed back to two faces. To do this, use the Trim-Extend To Face tool twice at each end. 1. 2. 3. 4.
Click the Trim-Extend To Face tool. Select the cross member. Select one of the faces. Click Apply.

5. Use the Trim-Extend To Face tool again and select the other face.
Trim the Front Cross Member Like the central cross member, the front cross member intersects two outer frame members. However, in this case, it is trimmed using Extrude with Cut option. This step illustrates that each of the frame members are defined using regular part files, and all conventional modeling tools are available. 1. Open the front cross member for editing. Note: To identify the frame member, drag the mouse over the members in the part browser until the required one is highlighted in the viewport. 2. Create a new sketch on the XY plane. 3. Press F7 to activate Slice Graphics. 4. Project the edges of the outer frame members.

5. Create a sketch that encompasses the end of the cross member.
6. Apply a colinear constraint between the sketch edges and the projected edges.

7. Extrude the sketch with the Cut and Midplane options.
Create the Front Hoop 1. Click the Insert tool. 2. Select 25 x 2 Round Tubing. 3. Select the five sketch components defining the front hoop.

About Adaptive Parts Frequently, it is helpful to create a new part in the context of one or more existing parts. In this exercise, a bellcrank mount is created using geometry projected from the existing frame. A part based on projected geometry is adaptive. If the underlying geometry changes, the part updates accordingly.
Exercise: Create a Bellcrank Mount In this exercise, you do the following: Create the base sketch. Extrude and shell the part. Add the holes.
