My goal was to make a small size, realistic and functional containment system. The stainless steel capsule is inserted into one of the three chambers that can then be pressurized or vacuumed depending on the needs.
The small pump will be used to acheive this. It can be opperated from the top dial selector switch. There is one pump per chamber and they are independant from each other.
The carying device can accomodate up to three chambers and can be carried by attaching a cable on the threaded rod located in the center. Each chamber can also be carried seperately by disconnecting the line between it and the pump.
The chamber can be opened by removing the three bolts and lifting the top cover. The chambers are being secured by a locking device located on the carrying assambly on top of the center rod. The chamber has a rubberized surface (black part) that absorbs some of the micro vibrations that may occure. Different systems can be hooked up to a maximum of four ports.
(The actual rendered image shows only one port being used at the time).
Modeled in Rhino and rendered in Flamingo.
Some postwork using Photoshop.
Thanks for viewing!

This is has a very good overall design and is well detailed. Futuristic but it still looks real enough to believe. Thinking a design through is something not done enough here or elsewhere.
