Skeleton USB Buddy - Phụ kiện hỗ trợ cho USB

Warning!
These were designed for use with a printer that can handle support material!  I had these printed on an Objet (material jetting style printer) which uses water-soluble support.

Purpose

This skeleton was modeled in Rhino such that it pairs with a USB stick. The model was created to correct a design flaw in the original USB stick.

The Flaw: The USB protects the interface head by having it slide back into the skeleton-shaped casing, however when attempting to place the head into a computer port, it would often slide back into the casing instead.

The Solution: The protrusion on the Rhino model inserts into the hole left by the USB sliding out, forcing the head to remain extended.

Versions

There are two versions: one with only one hugging arm (V1) and one with both arms hugging (V2) the USB.  I also included the original Solidworks model files.
