Creating a Curved Cover for a Curved Door Handle

3D Design
1

Hello,

I just replicated this door handle.

I need to " easily " reproduce the lid that will clip into the 5 notches located on the curved surface.

How do I do this easily and quickly starting from the curved cutout I made, please?

Is the easiest way to make a geodesic surface offset of 0.1mm for example and copy the sketch into a new room?

Hello;
Which version of Solidworks is used?
Please add a screenshot and/or a STEP or Parasolid equivalent for those who cannot open the attached file.

Parasolid is not allowed so I add the WWTP.

At the time for me for the Solidworks version, it's the 2025.

Do you have a supplier reference?
It wouldn't surprise me if you can find the full 3D in a Find-il or tracepart download hub...

Otherwise, I'll work on the curved cut (Lid) in the assembly + 0.1mm reduced projection of the sketch of the 5 notches (One notch = one sketch to control the extrusion direction) and then a Draft function...
And I'll add a small notch or a removal of material on one edge so that I can remove it with a small screwdriver...

No, I'm sorry, I don't have any supplier reference anymore... I tried to search with the information I was given but without success and it's already been a while ...

I didn't use the draft. I copied and pasted the 3D sketch into a new part but by extruding it created a non-modifiable angle on the thickness of the part (see 3D file). When I try to change the angle of the plane to 45° for example, it changes the angle on the other side like with a mirror...

I'm going to try like you did there.

Can I create a part from assembly? and then modify it? And if I modify the handle, the lid follows, right?
