Problem Set Assignment

1 Assemble Automotive Lower Seat Frame


The week four problem set assignment focuses on the assembly environment of Autodesk Inventor. The
goal of the assignment is to construct the lower frame assembly of the automotive seat with provided
components. Once the assembly is constrained the seat pan can be raised and lowered by adjusting the
ball screw drive motors mounted on the frame.

1.1 Provided Items


To start the assignment you are provided 74 files consisting of Autodesk Inventor part and assembly files
in a ZIP file. Week 4 Problem Set Instructions.mp4 is a video showing the general placement and
relationships of the component to help assemble the complete lower frame. Using the provided files you
can build the assembly then adjust the height position of the power seat.

Use the Standard (mm).iam template for all assemblies required for this problem set. Set the Top Back
Left Corner as the Home View.

1.2 Final Deliverable


Once the main assembly is complete you will need to provide a DWF file in the Lowered position of the
assembly. (See the Appendix at the end of this document for the steps to create a DWF) Then adjust the
seat height position using the setup dimensions below and provide the measured value as noted for each
setup in a custom iProperty.

Lower Frame Setup - Raised


 Front = 95 mm
 Back = 90 mm
 Value = XXX.XXX mm

Lower Frame Setup - Lowered


 Front = 70 mm
 Back = 80 mm
 Value = XX.XX mm

Measure the distance from the center of the back hole as noted below and the bottom face of the seat rail
track for each setup.
