Pressure on pusher/cam assembly

3D Design Assembly

Hello,
I want to create a constraint between 2 cam / trajectory following type parts
Piece One (blue) rotates Piece 2 (yellow) makes a translation
Position 1

Position 2

  • Tangent constraint does not work
    → volume or surface
  • Path constraint does not work
    → the contact point moves on the blue piece, I used arc or spline sketches to have a single line but it doesn't work
  • The mechanical stress cam does not work
    Is there a way to make this connection
    thank you

Hello;

The movement is simple, there is no reason why the " cam " constraint should not work.

To check if you don't have any parasitic constraints...
Alternatively, you can try a trajectory constraint with:
New path sketch line of the yellow component relative to a new plane on the blue component, and if that works, add a " parallel " constraint or distance between the yellow component and a datum plane to simulate its translation.
