3D printed DIN rail mounts for the Acorn, downloaded from Thingiverse

Post by kentonsj »

I created some files for 3D printed DIN rail mounts for the Acorn board and the power supply. Parts can be downloaded from Thingiverse. I prefer this style DIN mount because you can release it with a flat blade screwdriver without having to reach in underneath the board. At first I thought I would use the 50mm riser mount, but it was too high for my preference. I created a lower profile mount that I will end up using. There is a 3D printed hole that is the tap size for 6-32 on the Acorn brackets. You could also use a #6 screw to mount to the bracket. The power supply mounts with M3 screws from the bottom. I got the M3 screws from my stash of computer case parts. It's the screw that is commonly used to secure computer power supplies and disk drives inside your computer tower.

Thanks for the two mounts.

I have tried to make one for the relay board in fusion 360, but so far the mount section is a bust.

Has anyone drawn a relay mount or have a drawing of the din rail mounting portion that can be modified?

Thanks.
