Summary

The mounting of this bracket is achieved by clip-fastening!

The development of this camera mount was inspired by various mounts that can be found here on Thingiverse. As it is, none of them was exactly what I had in mind. That's why I decided to design another mount.

The following conditions should be fulfilled:

  • no loosening or exchange of screws of the printer to attach the mount.
  • no drillings at the printer.
  • variable and/or sufficient distance of the camera, in order to be able to capture printer display and print object at the same time.
  • Integration of the ribbon cable.

The extension parts were inspired by https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3188580

In thie video below I show a short version (2 Elements) and a long version (5 elements).

The long version gives you the possibility to capture the display of the printer and the print object simultaneously in the camera image.

The camera case and the connector are a remix of https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3121052. The main reason why I decided to take this camera box was that the camera could be aligned even more precisely due to the ball head on the connecting piece and that the back front was for clipping.

Screws: M3x20 (amount depending on the number of extensions) and M3x25 (1x) plus nuts and washers

I recommend in any case to use washers, even if it is a little fiddly to install them.This will improve the mobility of the individual elements.
