Product Dissection
The following notes were taken prior to and during product dissection.
Function/Purpose:
Raises and stores a bike near the ceiling of a room
Inputs/Outputs:
Pre-Dissection Opportunities:
- Better Directions
- All needed parts included
- Cost
- Lifts more objects than bikes
- Interchangable lifting mechanisms
- Hold more wieght
- Crank to lift bike
Setup:
1.) Open box and unpack all parts making sure everything has been included.
2.) Measure distance between the back of the seat and the front of the handle bars on the bike that will be used.
3.) Transfer this measurement to the wood board and draw a line resembling the front of the handle bars and a line for the back of the bike.
4.) Tie one end of the rope into a double knot. Pull the other end through the square hole on the end of the cieling bracket that has one pulley.
4.) Set the two black brackets on the board so that the the hole between the two pulleys on the bracket with two pulleys and the second hole in on the bracket with one pulley show the lines.
5.) Pre-drill 1/8" pilot holes into the wood where the corner circular holes are in the bracket. (Picture Shown)
6.) Screw the wood screws through the corner circular holes on the brackets and into the wood board securing the brackets to the board. (Picture Shown)
7.) Using wood screws, mount the wooden board to the ceiling in desired location. Be sure to screw into the joists of the ceiling. Screwing into drywall only or ceiling tiles only will not provide an adequate hold.
