VEX Robotics Parts Identification, Top Questions and answers. Graded A+ angle structure - structure system - -An "L" shaped structure part used to form the "skeleton" of the robot. Battery 7.2V 2000mAh - -Battery pack that provides 7.2 volts of electricity for the power system at 2000 milliamps. battery 7.2V 3000mAh - -Battery pack that provides 7.2 volts of electricity for the power system a 3000 milliamps. axle - motion subsystem - -A long, rigid piece through the rotational center of an object (like a gear or wheel). Square bars are usually used as axles in the VEX system. bearing (flat) - motion subsystem - -A commonly used type of bearing in the VEX system. This bearing has three holes in a row. An axle is passed through the center hole which allows it to spin freely. bearing (pillow block) - structure subsystem - -A piece that is used to hold a moving piece (such as an axle) in place relative to the rest of the system. bearing pop-rivet - structure system - -A plastic fashtener system consisting of two parts and used to hold the VEX bearing Flat part in place on the structure system. bumper switch sensor - sensor subsystem - -A high-durability sensor designed to detect physical contact. This is a digital sensor. caster wheel - motion subsystem - -A free-swiveling wheel mounted on a robot to provide stability while producing a minimum of friction. c-channel - structure system - -A structure system beam used to form the "skeleton" of the robot. chassis - structure subsystem, motion subsystem - -A vehicle's basic structural frame, plus its locomotion systems. chassis rail - structure system - -A structure system beam used to form the "skeleton" of the robot. chain and sprocket - motion subsystem - -Optional parts to provide a chain drive in the motion system of the robot. clutch - motion subsystem - -A detachable piece normally mounted to the VEX motors that protects them from shock loads. collar - structure subsystem - -A type of spacer that can be set to remain stationary at any given point along an axle.
