My First Lift
Worm Gear Mechanism: The motor uses a white worm gear to drive a larger orange spur gear. This setup provides high torque and prevents the elevator car from sliding down when the motor stops. Electric Motor: A small DC motor powers the system, typically operated by a battery pack (not shown) with a simple forward/reverse switch to control the lift's direction. Laser-Cut Wood: The structure is made from eco-friendly, laser-cut plywood, making it easy to assemble without complex tools. Pulley System: A string connects the gear shaft to the elevator cabin, demonstrating how rotational motion is converted into linear vertical movement.
