Robot for collecting golf balls

Tema ovog diplomskog rada je koncipiranje i konstruiranje uređaja za skupljanje golf loptica. U radu su navedene opće informacije o golfu i golf terenima, te su istraženi relevantni patenti i konkurentni uređaji na tržištu. Postavljeni su ciljevi razvoja i tehnička specifikacija. Određene su funkcije uređaja i načini ispunjavanja tih funkcija, uz pomoć metode funkcijske dekompozicije i morfološke matrice. Napravljena su tri koncepta od kojih je vrednovanjem izabran najbolji koncept za detaljnu razradu. U razradi je napravljen odabir komponenti te provjera dijelova s obzirom na mehaničku čvrstoću. Naposljetku, pomoću 3D modela uređaja izrađenog u CAD softveru, opisane su komponente uređaja i princip rada, te je izrađena tehnička dokumentacija.The topic of this master's thesis is design and development of a device for collecting golf balls. The paper provides general information about golf and golf courses, and researches relevant patents and competitive devices on the market. Firstly, development goals and technical specification were set. The functions of the device and the ways of fulfilling these functions were determined, with the help of the functional decomposition and the morphological matrix methods. Three concepts were created, from which the best concept was selected for detailed development. During the development, the selection of components was made and the key elements were checked with regard to mechanical strength. Finally, using a 3D model of the device created in CAD software, the components of the device and the principle of operation were described, and the technical documentation was created
