• Lift

This is a robot attachment that could be used to lift object. The gear ratio of this attachment is allows it to lift Heavy objects. It's built with LEGO Education SPIKE Prime parts and could be used in competitions in robotics like FIRST LEGO League/World Robotics Olympiad. The goal of the attachment is to demonstrate the principle and example of an attachment for heavy lifting that could be placed on the robot. It's designed for Luly, small LEGO Education SPIKE Prime competition robot with 3D building instructions. Check the courses in which this attachment is used for more information and tutorials on how to use it.

Lifter is an pretty fast and pretty strong attachment that lift up... things... like exercise machine, astronauts and other stuff.

A program for that attachment in Into Orbit 09 - Strength Exercise challenge is located at programs/hm9c06-lifter-an-attachment-for-suv-box-robot-and-into-orbits-m09-strength-exercise-program.

Building instructions for the LEGO Mindstorms EV3 robot used for accomplishing WRO 2014 mission. It is the full robot with the lift at the top

For the FIRST LEGO League 2016-2017 Animal Allies we prepared an attachment for lifting the robot. The idea of the attachment is to show how you could lift the whole robot with a system of gear wheels, levers, and scissors constructions.

Built mainly from LEGO Mindstorms EV3 parts but could probably be constructed from NXT sets.

This construction demonstrates one way of using а rack with a gear wheel. It allows to turn circular motion in to a liniar one.

Varasto from Finnish means warehouse.

This is a simple warehouse robot made to hold and drag objects. It uses two Large motors to move around and one medium motor for a grabber. The grabber is at the front of the robot and consists of two double angular lift-arms that are each connected to a gear, which allows them to function like a grabber.

This attachment have a guider mechanism that align the robot to the attachment. The attachment woks with SUV Box Robot.

Building instructions for a LEGO Mindstorms EV3 Ambulance Robot Attachment for the FIRST LEGO League 2013 Nature's Fury robotics competition.    The attachment grabs the ambulance car and slightly lifts it. The rubber bands help with triggering the attachment at the right time

These are 3D Building Instructions for M03 Coral Nursery mission model for the FIRST LEGO League 2024-2025 SUBMERGED competition. This mission model does not have an alternative due to the specificity of the parts.

With this LEGO Education SPIKE Prime attachment we accomplish the basketball mission from the FIRST LEGO League 2020 RePlay competition. The goal of the mission is to put the ball into the basket and to have the basket up at the end of the round. This is a complex attachment. It uses gear wheels and warm gears to transfer the power from the motor to the top of the attachment. At the top of the attachment there is a wheel with a rope. The rope is build with LEGO Education SPIKE Prime parts. If you have the chance, use a different LEGO rope, but if you don't that this one will be ok.

This is an 8 bar lifting robot. Way should I build this instead of Roberto bot you ask? Because it is... well... it lift thing straight up, it lift 'em higher, it's more beautiful than Roberto and is more bad ass looking than 4 bar lifting mechanism. OOoohhh, and one more thing it may use the same program as Roberto Bot With Four Bars Lifting Mechanism.

These are building instructions for one of the greatest LEGO Mindstorms attachments that we've built. Super simple and easy to follow and at the end, you have an attachment with a rubber band that controls a lever and that could lift objects from the field. It could lift them up. Also because it is with a rubber band you don't need a motor and you could use the motor for other attachments. 

This is an attachment for the Kriket box robot. It demonstrates how to build attachments that glide over the robot, are pinless and could be quickly and easily replaced and changed with another attachment. This attachment also lifts. Quite cool. Quite cool.

This is a robot, designed to easily lift a cup, while still holding it upright. The robot uses one motor attached to the brick to lift the cup to any angle you want. The cup we have added is purely cosmetic, but with a few adjustments, you can make it lift real cups. Be careful around liquids though!

This is the robot that we use to demonstrate a solution for competition. This is a Post season solution. We never release any solutions during the season as this will have a negative impact on the competition. But after the competition we try to make a review and to see how we could have accomplish it. Our goal is to be better for next year.

This robot is quite powerful. The attachment mechanism on the front is one of a kind as it can do several things with a single motor: it can lift, it can unlock, it can grab. All of this thanks to the unique mechanism of gears

An attachment designed for Heavy lifting. It's build with LEGO MINDSTORMS Robot Inventor 51515 and it has a gear wheels mechanism that allows you to increase the torque and lift really heavy things. Build the attachment and check out the tutorial. This will teach you one more principle that you could use for FIRST LEGO League competitions.

This is a heavy lifting attachment and it can lift mission models vertically. It is build entirely from LEGO MINDSTORMS Robot Inventor 51515 parts. This is one of the more complex and interesting attachments that we demonstrate in the course and it show how a few gear wheels and levers could be used to change the motion from circular to linear. This is powerful concept that could be very valuable during FIRST LEGO League competitions.

This is the Little Truckie, but upgraded with an arm so it can teach you to be a good driver with lager number of controls. Now you can drive it and lift things at the same time.
