From the Assembly menu Add the frame component. This should be added in the correct position. However the axes of the frame and the wheel sub-assembly must be aligned.
Select the face of the axle and the inside of the axle hole in the frame. Select Centre Axes from the Assembly menu. These parts will now be constrained along their centre axes. Fig. 16 Add the telepole component from the Assembly menu. This should be added at right angles to the assembly completed so far. This is shown on the left.
The telepole may also be added in an intersecting manner as shown in Fig. 17 This is of no concern as the mating constraints will ensure it is properly located on the top surface of the frame.
Highlight the inside face of the pole and the face of the locating boss as shown Fig. 18 From the assembly menu select Centre Axes to permanently align the two components. However this will not prevent the parts from moving apart from each other. To permanently locate them in their exact location, the two faces indicated below Fig. 19 must be highlighted then the option Mate Faces from the Assembly Menu Selected to mate the parts together. |
