Pin Configuration

  • Component Documentation: 7 x 4 Cm Gear Motor Robot Wheel, Tyres for 6 mm Shaft Geared DC Motor - 4 Pieces
  • Overview
  • The 7 x 4 Cm Gear Motor Robot Wheel is a set of four wheels specifically designed for robotics and science projects. Each wheel is compatible with 6 mm shaft geared DC motors and features a robust design for smooth and efficient movement.
  • Pinout Description
  • The gear motor robot wheel does not have any electronic pins. Instead, it has a mechanical interface that connects to a 6 mm shaft geared DC motor. Below is a point-by-point explanation of the mechanical interface:
  • Mechanical Interface:
  • Motor Shaft Hole: A 6 mm diameter hole in the center of the wheel, designed to accommodate the shaft of a geared DC motor.
  • Keyway Slot: A small slot on the motor shaft hole, which aligns with the keyway on the motor shaft to ensure secure and proper mounting.
  • Connection Structure:
  • To connect the gear motor robot wheel to a 6 mm shaft geared DC motor, follow these steps:
  • 1. Align the Motor Shaft: Insert the motor shaft into the motor shaft hole, ensuring the keyway on the shaft aligns with the keyway slot on the wheel.
  • 2. Secure the Motor Shaft: Tighten the motor shaft gently, but firmly, using a screw or clip (depending on the motor design) to prevent it from coming loose during operation.
  • 3. Verify the Connection: Double-check that the motor shaft is properly seated and secured to the wheel, ensuring smooth rotation and efficient power transmission.
  • Important Notes:
  • Ensure the motor shaft is properly aligned and secured to the wheel to prevent damage or malfunction.
  • The gear motor robot wheel is designed for use with geared DC motors only. Do not attempt to use it with other types of motors.
  • Always follow proper safety precautions when working with electrical and mechanical components.
  • By following these guidelines, you can successfully connect the gear motor robot wheel to a 6 mm shaft geared DC motor and integrate it into your robotics or science project.
