Web-Based Mechanism Design of 3C Plastic Parts with Knowledge Management

The mechanism design of plastic parts provides means for assembly and strength for applications. The common mechanism designs include component separation, snap fit, boss, hook, lip, rib, gusset, etc., which are traditionally accomplished by the accumulated knowledge of well-trained designers. This paper presents a navigating system to accomplish the mechanism design of 3C products in a systematic, consistent, and scientific approach, making the design procedure transparent. This not only greatly saves the time in training and designing, but also reduces some preventable man-made errors.
