How to animate hook movement
Does anyone know the easiest way to animate the movement of a hook.
The hook is placed on a lid and snaps into a base.
The lid is constrained with an opening angle in the assembly.
The hook in the lid is also constrained with an angle.
On top there is a moving part in the base part too, also constrained with an angle..
For now I made relations between the opening angle and the two other angles.
Regenerating each time the opening angle is changed.
Challenges:
- There is no clear relation between the angles, as the hook snaps in and so on.
- When the lid opens the relation between the angles are different compared to when the lid closes.
Can Flexible modeling or another part of Creo3 do the trick?
