Description
Gyro Cup Holder for Wheelchair – Fabrication and Assembly Instructions

Introduction
This is a print-in-place gyroscopic cup holder designed to fit the UniTrack rail under the armrest of a Permobil wheelchair. The body of the cup holder is printed in Nylon with Carbon Fiber, which requires a hardened nozzle that can withstand abrasive materials.
The basket and the bearing are printed in TPU. The bearings need to be added to the slicer program and manually placed so they fit inside the body, around the outer ring pivots.
Use the pins to secure the TPU strap to the cup holder inner ring.
Screw holes are added (optional) to reinforce the rail system so the cup holder doesn’t break when bumping into things.
