00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:05,700
This is the second video of Module six, we will learn all about creating joints in this video.

2
00:00:06,300 --> 00:00:11,220
We will start by learning how to create a joint and then move on to looking at the various types of

3
00:00:11,220 --> 00:00:11,550
joints.

4
00:00:11,550 --> 00:00:12,510
Infusion 360.

5
00:00:13,050 --> 00:00:13,890
Let's get started.

6
00:00:16,450 --> 00:00:18,940
Now, to create a joint, we need two components.

7
00:00:19,270 --> 00:00:22,180
I have created two components here the cylinder and the box.

8
00:00:23,140 --> 00:00:29,620
So essentially the way the joint would work is, I want this part of the cylinder, this extension to

9
00:00:29,620 --> 00:00:31,780
fit into this hole that I've created here.

10
00:00:33,600 --> 00:00:39,060
Now, to create a joint, I can click on this button up here that says join or go to assemble and click

11
00:00:39,060 --> 00:00:41,100
on Join or just Typekit on my keyboard.

12
00:00:42,450 --> 00:00:48,660
Now, this joint panel appears here, firstly, we need to select points on both our components.

13
00:00:49,700 --> 00:00:55,460
Now, as you can see, when I hover over this extension, I can see three points, which I can select.

14
00:00:56,090 --> 00:01:00,110
However, when I go to select this third point right here, it's just this face here.

15
00:01:00,950 --> 00:01:05,810
Now, if I want to select that, I can either go to a different view and then select it.

16
00:01:06,900 --> 00:01:12,180
Or what Vision allows us to do is when hovering over this extension, just click on, come on on your

17
00:01:12,180 --> 00:01:12,600
keyboard.

18
00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:19,170
And that locks it onto this face now, you can't switch faces an agency like this point at the back

19
00:01:19,170 --> 00:01:19,410
here.

20
00:01:20,010 --> 00:01:25,470
So for this demonstration, I would just like this front point here and once you select your.

21
00:01:26,590 --> 00:01:31,990
First component infusion, it disappears, it becomes transparent.

22
00:01:33,020 --> 00:01:36,780
And then select the point on the second component.

23
00:01:36,800 --> 00:01:43,370
So here I'm hitting come on, if I don't hit, come on, you see, I'm only being able to select the

24
00:01:43,370 --> 00:01:44,720
outer faces or the edge.

25
00:01:45,260 --> 00:01:48,920
But now if I step command, I can choose this back.

26
00:01:50,070 --> 00:01:50,610
Face your.

27
00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:54,080
And as you can see, our.

28
00:01:56,300 --> 00:01:56,770
Of.

29
00:01:58,150 --> 00:02:02,530
Cylinder body has now moved to this box to create the joint.

30
00:02:03,590 --> 00:02:11,420
Now, initially, when I was selecting the two components, one thing you need to keep note of is.

31
00:02:12,830 --> 00:02:14,570
The component that you want to move.

32
00:02:15,790 --> 00:02:20,560
See, for example, in this case, I wanted my cylinder to move, needs to be selected first.

33
00:02:21,490 --> 00:02:22,660
So just keep that in mind.

34
00:02:24,100 --> 00:02:28,930
So now that we have created our joint, we have types of joints.

35
00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:35,080
There are seven here, we only need to look at three, which are rigid, resolute and slider is currently

36
00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:42,490
flexible slider that changes to rigid, as you can see with this animation rigid, rigid joint, essentially.

37
00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:47,440
Like glue, so it doesn't really move, and it's fixed in one position.

38
00:02:49,080 --> 00:02:50,400
Our revenue joint.

39
00:02:52,200 --> 00:02:58,020
Allows it to rotate, so currently it's said to the Z-axis, and this joint is represented by Green

40
00:02:58,020 --> 00:02:58,710
Flag right here.

41
00:02:59,130 --> 00:03:02,520
So now if I animate it, you can see it revolving.

42
00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:08,470
This is a lender, so you cannot see the object revolving necessarily, but it is.

43
00:03:10,380 --> 00:03:15,760
You can also change the axes, so if I wanted to revolve around the x axis, it's going that way.

44
00:03:16,050 --> 00:03:21,510
It doesn't work in this case, but I used to demonstrate it or the y axis which goes this way.

45
00:03:22,110 --> 00:03:26,640
You can also create a custom axis, but for this, let's leave that the Z-axis.

46
00:03:28,510 --> 00:03:30,580
And the third type is our slider.

47
00:03:32,190 --> 00:03:33,810
So it can move in and out.

48
00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:40,210
It's not quite there yet, when I animate this entire cylinder goes in, we can fix that later.

49
00:03:40,230 --> 00:03:40,710
I would show you.

50
00:03:41,730 --> 00:03:42,750
So let's click OK.

51
00:03:44,870 --> 00:03:50,600
And our joint has been created, and now, as you can see, we have another dropdown here that says

52
00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:51,140
Joints.

53
00:03:51,650 --> 00:03:53,330
And we have our slider one.

54
00:03:54,460 --> 00:03:58,810
Now we can right click on this and we have a few settings here.

55
00:03:59,860 --> 00:04:04,180
We will look at three which are dry joints and the joints and the joint limits.

56
00:04:05,170 --> 00:04:06,460
Now for.

57
00:04:07,810 --> 00:04:12,670
Drive joints, you can essentially select the starting point of the joint.

58
00:04:12,790 --> 00:04:14,470
So let's just leave the subzero.

59
00:04:16,079 --> 00:04:22,470
We can edit our joint, which was essentially the panel we saw a few seconds ago where when we were

60
00:04:22,470 --> 00:04:25,800
creating our joint and you can change the specifications here.

61
00:04:26,980 --> 00:04:29,990
And the next one is our joint limits.

62
00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:34,630
So you can have a minimum or maximum under arrest.

63
00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:36,610
So I want to arrested zero.

64
00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:40,520
And have a minimum of minus 10.

65
00:04:42,090 --> 00:04:49,080
And now an enemy, you can see it works properly because it's sliding in and out and at the right distances.

66
00:04:50,030 --> 00:04:50,510
Now.

67
00:04:52,300 --> 00:04:55,960
It's sometimes hard to tell which one's the maximum and which one's the minimum.

68
00:04:56,350 --> 00:04:58,510
So you may need to play around with these values.

69
00:04:58,990 --> 00:05:00,850
But this is really helpful.

70
00:05:01,690 --> 00:05:04,630
So as you can see, our perfect joint has been created.

71
00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:12,710
You can hit OK and then you can also animate your joint, so as you can see, it's moving in and out,

72
00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:16,860
so if you just want to show someone how it works, you can click on an image.

73
00:05:18,890 --> 00:05:20,870
And then you can again, right click.

74
00:05:22,350 --> 00:05:24,030
And stop the animation.

75
00:05:25,260 --> 00:05:29,010
So that is it for this video, and that is how you create a joint.

76
00:05:31,220 --> 00:05:34,280
You have just learned all about creating joints and Fusion 360.

77
00:05:35,170 --> 00:05:38,680
As you keep using this tool, you will realize how exciting it is.

78
00:05:40,130 --> 00:05:42,950
Now, get ready for the next challenge to test your knowledge.

79
00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:43,940
See you there.
