Design modular electrical connectors
Budget: $250 – $750 USD
Experienced CAD designer needed to help turn my dream into reality. We are designing adapters for electric vehicle chargers to convert between different connection types. These adapters would have two halves One half is the female connector and the other half is the male connector. This modular construction will allow us to assemble various different combinations. Some of the adapters should have latching mechanisms to prevent unintended disconnection, and I have ideas to offer on how to go about implementing this. You would create the CAD design for all the pieces of the connector and the terminals. Some of the components have already been produced and simply need to be copied. I can ship these parts to you to measure and copy into the design. The attached photo shows two halves of a sample adapter which is very similar to what we would be working on. The scope of this project will be two female connectors, two male connectors, and the terminals for each. Additionally, the pieces in the center to join these two halves and secure the terminals. Large portions of the actual connectors themselves can be copied by measuring actual connectors which I would send you.
