Chargeable Phone Stand

I made a geometric desktop smartphone designed with a 60 degree angle so you can focus and charge accessibly. It feature a right triangular base that provides a low center of gravity, ensuring the stand is upright and remains when touching the screen. Meanwhile, the front of the stand is a ledge consisting of a central cable routing channel, letting you charge your device while it remains securely sealed. the central opening on the bottom also provides an exit for the sound coming out of your phone. The outer edge of the ledge is what gives the friction that keeps the phone from sliding down. Because of the tilt of the phone, you can easily slide it down. The problem I'm trying to solve is to improve poor posture and reduce neck strain when people use their phones and their hands aren't accessible. By placing the phone on the stand, you can have natural eye alignment and won't need to cradle the phone as it reduces wrist strain as well.

The main supply that helped me through this project was the internet. I used various websites to get an idea on what to make for this project, and researched on what kind of goal it would solve, and what to do if the model didn't fit or wasn't the proper size.

The first step is to begin the design on Fusion. You begin with making the base, which is 80 by 100 mm. Its a rectangle, and you extrude it up by 7 mm. Then, you make another rectangle on the base which is 80 by 15 mm near the front of the base. You extrude that down by 6 mm. Next, you create another rectangle behind the place where the phone would be sitting. Its 80 by 72 mm and the little rectangle underneath that is 80 by 8 mm. Next, you extrude the 80 by 8 mm rectangle up by 70 mm to support the top. Next, you create a triangle connecting from the top of the model to the edge any side, and the edge in front. It can be either on the left or the right. You then extrude that 80 mm whichever way it would go across the model. Next, you create a triangle sketch inside of one side of the design, whichever side. You then extrude that triangular base so it goes through the base. Next, you create a rectangle in the middle of the front ledge, from the top all the way to the bottom, and it should be 12 mm long. Next, you extrude that rectangle 5 mm in through the ledge. Next, you create a triangle in the corners of the opening that was extruded down, so it connects and makes a smooth tilt. Next, you extrude that triangle so it goes across the model. Next, you add a filet through all of the edges of the model. Next, add a rectangle on top of the space that was extruded for the charger. Next, extrude it down until the fillet. Next, add a rectangle on the bottom of the model thats as wide as the opening and as long as the entire ledge. Finally, extrude that rectangle down until its through the model.

The next step is to export the design from Fusion as an stl file and import it onto Prusa Slicer to 3d print it out. The size should be about the same size as the photo.

After printing it out, try it on an actual charger and place it on your table to charge accessibly while using your phone!
