PSION Organiser II - Top Slot Case
A 3D Model file of an Organiser II (all family) Top Slot Case. The intention to allow design of modified cases and enable part clearance of electronics within the case to be more readily determined.
All the files are required for a complete case assembly. The default repository format is STEP ( ISO 10303 ) due to its high fidelity. { STL files are surface geometry as opposed to solid model representations, often containing export processing artifacts }.
FreeCAD may prove suitable for viewing, handling and, if desired modifying STEP files.
Models might be viewed on line using the following links. Noting display of any mesh lines is a feature of the renderer and are not contained in the source STEP model. It is strongly recommended to use the source STEP file where ever possible, as any export process will introduce artifacts.
The model makes no accomodation for manufacturing tolerances, process or material - see Notes below.
The original male 8 way 2 row top slot header style connector (marked MXS 70224) may have included a custom pin support moulding. Data from a parts list kindly indicated in this hardware forum seemed to confirm this theory. Readily available 8 way 2 row header connectors tend to have smaller pin support mouldings. The effect of using pin headers with smaller moulding is to permit the PCB to displace vertically in the slot guide channel, resulting in poor alignment with the mating female connector and potential insertion difficulty. There are a number of mitigations, such as changing the height of the male header connector in the PCB and adding material to support the top of a smaller male header pin support moulding. The precise accommodation will depend on your selected pin header moulding. Potentially this case may be of assistance.
