PCB Spacers
To fix the PCB's in the robots, spacers are used. These spacers have snapfits on both sides which can be pushed in the holes on the PCB's and the middle and top plate. Because of the snap-fits, we don't have to use screws to keep the PCB's in place. This makes it easier to take off and put on the PCB's. The power board is connected to the top plate by three spacers, the topboard is connect to the top plate by two spacers and the kicker/chipper board in connected to the middle plate by two spacers. These spacers have been ordered at Würth. We use the following spacers in the robots: 701510500, 701513000, 701518500.
