tangerine    tumbler

​2023
Our latest robot, Tangerine Tumbler, competed in the 2023 CHARGED UP competitions. Tangerine Tumbler used a rolling mechanism to collect cones and cubes, and effectively placed them in their designated places. Assisted by the LED rods we implemented, Tangerine Tumbler could dock quickly and was capable of completing this task in the final seconds of each match.

scoring
The continuous three-stage elevator allows the Tangerine Tumbler to score cones and cubes on all three rows, MAXTube and WCP bearing blocks provide the sliding structure of the elevator. Intake is made up of three polycarbonate rollers with layered silicone. The back roller allows the cube to be snuggly kept in place at the bottom of the intake, and its front two rollers pick up upright cones. ​

drivetrain
Agility being a main focus, and within a 26" x 26" frame, the drivetrain includes a set of Mk4i swerve modules and the covers. It has an unpocketed belly pan design reaching across the top and bottom of the rails, as well as a battery mount towards the back of the robot to maintain a low center of gravity and keep the weight as close to the pivot point of the arm as possible.
