Car Vent Gravity Phone Holder v4

About the model

Originally the remix of the ingenious Car Vent Gravity Phone Holder by Abdel Darwish that in the version V3 I remodeled from the scratch, keeping the original idea and general outline. Main changes in V4 (2025-07-26) • Changed parts: • Arm • Sled • Clip • Clip Knob • Sled: Thicker pins that hold the arms (reported breaking in some cases) • Arms: Bigger hole for the pins. • Clip: • The clip profile changed to prevent its jaws from deforming when using for a long time in a hot car • The tip is remodeled for better grip • Clip: Remodeled to accept a screw for plastic (diameter 2.8-2.5mm, length 6-10mm) • Clip Knob: Added a hole for the screw • NOTE: The screw holding the clip to the clip knob is optional, but highly recommended. Main changes in V3 • Remodeled body for tighter tolerances (in previous versions sometimes the front and the back plate would detach) • Clip remodeled for better grip and easier removal from the fins when needed • Tighter Clip + Clip Knob for click-fit • Sled remodeled for a phone to sit better • Arms remodeled for faster print Main changes in V2 • The clip can rotate to adjust to various vent fins • Openings in the body to allow air to pass and cool the phone • UPDATED 2022-09-01: a “hooked” clip with a stronger grip to the ventilation fins and a longer “long” clip, also with a stronger grip. Try and see which one suits you best. Longer arms to allow access to volume buttons for Huawei, Samsung and iPhone Press the Clip Knob to the Clip - it should snugly fit. It is highly recommended to fix the two with a screw for plastic, diameter 2.8-2.5mm, length 6-10 mm. Alternatively, fix the two with a tiny drop of superglue. There is no need for the glue if you use a screw. Do not glue the clip to the body. It must be allowed to rotate. Print Settings Printer: • Prusa CORE One Rafts • No Supports • On Build-Plate only Resolution • 0.20 Infill • Clip: 90% Gyroid infill • Other parts: 30% Gyroid infill Filament • ASA (Highly recommended) or other temperature-resistant filament • PA / Nylon (best), ASA, or PETG (a non-brittle one) - The clip could soften when the car heating is on.
