Ice Scraper with Flip Mechanism

Discover the practicality of my 3D-printed ice scraper design. It’s built with a sturdy handle that houses a simple yet effective latch mechanism. Just press the button on top, and watch the scraper blade spring into action, ready to tackle ice with ease. For an extra bit of style, print the middle and outer parts in different colours. It’s a reliable tool with a fun twist, perfect for those frosty mornings.

Build notes

  1. PrintingFor the scraper and the handle shells you will probably need to include support structures.
  2. Assembly
    1. preload the spiral springs so that the scraper blade will spring up with more force and stay in place.
    2. If you are using glue to secure the connector block and the shell be careful to not glue in the mechanism

To do:

Improve Latch

Improve Hinge
