8. MOTOR SIZING AND BATTERY SIZING - P-Odd-2022/REPO-2 GitHub Wiki

Motor Sizing

The motor used in Ball Hop game machine is Micro gearmotor-90 RPM (6v-12v).

The adapter used is 12V DC 2A.

Motor Sizing:

Mass of spinner =0.0519 kg

g=9.8

Force(F) = mass*g

Force(F) =0.0519 * 9.8

Force(F) = 0.50862 N.

Torque(T) = F * r

r = 3.7

T = 0.50862 * 3.7

T = 1.88189 kgcm.

Total Torque(T) = FOS * T

T = 1.5 * 1.88189

T = 2.8228 kgcm.

Therefore Rated = 30 Rpm

Power = (23.1430*2.8228)/60

Power = 8.8635 W.

Part Quantity Operating voltage Operating/ Load Current
Arduino 1 5V 100 mA
Capacative touch Sensor 5 5V 40mA*5
DC motor 2 5-12V 600mA*2
lcd display 1 12V 120mA*1
red led 5 5V 40mA*5

Operating voltage = 5V

Total current = 1.82A * FOS

Total current = 1.82A * 1.2

Final current = 2.184A
