TKR-Grid I/F Design Options (fastener locking)
•Lock wire
•Key insert
•Set screw
•Liquid Shim on shoulder
•“Battery terminal” on side flexures
•Urelane (loc-tite) threads
TKR-Grid I/F Design Options (key decision)
•Conical bushing (concept 1) favored for corner flexures
•Issue: Imparted loads due to enforced displacement –
need to look into maximum allowable enforced skew of TKR
bottom tray
•Issue: imparted hoop stressed in flexure
•Action for Tom Borden: how to modify tooling to put conic
into existing flexures (enough room for taper?)
•Action – ensure taper is not a self-locking taper
•Action – check loads on flexure and bottom tray
•Liquid Shim at side flexures (zero tolerance plus positive
locking) – need to ream existing holes to achieve 0.030
clearance or grind down shoulder, plus injection port, split
washer, etc.
•Action – Martin to talk with Rob Black regarding injection
and liquid shim

TKR-EM Tower Path to Re-vib (T. Venator)
1. Grid I/F redesign concept
•
Define concept
•
Define Schedule
•
New Vib Plates
2. Flexure tray I/F analysis redesign?
3. Analysis of all tower fastener torques and locking features
4. Resolve sidewall design options
•
120 degree fastener heads
•
Mid tray mods, etc.
