Raspberry Pi 4 Case with Homematic RPI-RF-MOD

Last crawled date: 4 years, 2 months ago

THIS IS A WORK IN PROGRESS - I COULDN'T TEST IT YET - STILL WAITING FOR MY ADA4079 TO ARRIVE
This is an easy to print case for the Raspberry Pi 4B version of my Raspberry Pi 3 and Homematic RPI-RF-MOD case.
You need:
3x M2.5x6mm screws
2x20 Socket Riser Header for Raspberry Pi
The Socket Riser is needed due to the changed PCB layout of the RPi 4 compared to the RPi 3. The RPI-RF-MOD PCB hits the LAN port without it.
Maybe I will design a version for the tall stacking headers in the near future. But this is the version I prefer.
Print the parts, insert the RPi and fix it with 2 screws to the bottom part.
Then put the Riser Header on the GPIO pins of the Pi and install the RPI-RF-MOD and close the case with the top. insert the last M2.5x6mm screw into the square hole and secure it.
One hole at the top of the case shows the Status LED (bigger one) and the other is to press the reset button with a needle or similar small and thin piece of whatever (maybe Clippy could be used ;-) ).
I highly recommend to use small rubber bumpers (like 3M bumpon) with a diameter from 7-9mm on the bottom part to keep some distance to the wall/surface and not covering the venting holes.
I designed a clickable insert for this square hole so you can make your own "stickers" on it. (or use the raspberry in the example). For this please use the Nupsi.step as a start.
Parts to print:

1x Bottom_RPi4.stl

1x Top_RPi4.stl (Top without venting holes)
OR
1x Top_vent_RPi4.stl (Top with venting holes on three sides)
OR
1x Top_small-vent.stl (Top with venting holes only on the long side facing up when wall-mounted)
optional:
Logo_example.stl
or any of your own designs using the Nupsi.step as mounting base
