MODULAR-ALL-TERAIN-DOZER

This is a model that I build to use in the FLL (first lego League).

The idee was to create a 6 wheel drive model that could adapt different types of grippers
I had only one motor left to operate thoose grippers !

The Main gripper
	
	operates as follow:
	1) when down the arms close the switches and so the robot knows when it hit sonething.
	2) when closing the gripper the object will be grabbed and then lifted
	3) when the gripper is up the object will fall in the holder
	There is a light sensor mounted to be able to follow a line, or when the gripper is slightly lifted it can see a bright light source.

The black scoop
	
	operates as follow:
	1) by turning the motor down the scoop will go in the ground
	2) by turning the motor the other side it will rais the scoop
	3) by going even higher it will tillt
	4) when the scoop is lowerd the yellow 2x2 slopes will put the scoop back in the normal position

The forks are simple
	but not realy good

The light sensor
	will connect the fork or scoop so it will not break

a rotation sensor is mounted on one wheel side



The Ldraw dat file will follow...
