| + | [* black] Since I modeled an entire copy of the Panasonic hinge cap in CAD, I decided to take the time and improve on the design with my own iteration. |
|---|---|
| + | [* black] The new design improves upon the Panasonic design in three ways. |
| + | [* black] The 2 degree body draft angle was removed, allowing for a more square profile and thicker walls. This reduces the chance of vertical shear lines forming into cracks. |
| + | [* black] The stepped geometry inside the cap for hinge clearance was removed since the draft angle no longer brought the wall in contact with the hinge. |
| + | [* black] The screw hole fill was increased and the previously ribbed geometry around the hole was completely filled. This reduces the chance of hole tear-out when the cap is removed several times. |
