“When I recorded “Jisu” in the traffic police, major-inspector to find fault with the documents did not. I leafed through them and said: “let’s Go see your car”. Walked around it, looked under the hood, under the bottom, then sat in the cockpit and says, “let’s Go!” We got on the highway, ride. At the end of the major shows on the hill: “got it?” I’ll try, I say. Began to climb. Passenger my stiffened in the seat. Yes, and I was not myself — the slope is almost 45 degrees, almost lying on the backs… But “Jessa” — well, climbed to the top. Where now, you ask? Major briefly: “MREO”. Then quietly, as if to himself, said: “Here not even a single vehicle is not stopped. What else is there to check?!”… From the story of the designer of the vehicle V. A. VERBYLA
A COMPACT CAR WITH CHARACTER ROVER
Motorists asked to get a shallow pit that allows you to perform repair of machines sitting. Energy and materials it takes much less than in the arrangement of any ie “polnost governmental” counterparts. And work convenient. Is a mini-pit in two parts: a sump with a slanted end (it falls under the car) and depth, equipped with mortise seat. Wall recommend to impose with a brick. If there is roofing iron, it is quite possible to do the lining and out of it in the form of a welded box construction. Not the best option (but more affordable) is to dig a wooden stand with a subsequent interior wall boards, plywood or plastic. But the bottom (if there is no soil water) can be left in excavation without any coverage.
The mast — Foundation of rig of the vessel, its main node. The role mast multi-function, from its devices and locations on the vessel dependent area, the configuration and aerodynamics of the sails, the ability to control their thrust, the location of the centerboard and much more. So the choice of the type and design of the mast determines the construction features of the vessel, and the level of effectiveness of its sails.
Hard to believe that everything is created by one person. Besides, not a graduate, but a simple fan design. As for the design and manufacture of completely heterogeneous machines required engineering knowledge in several fields of technology. Plus well equipped workshops and rich material stock.
Not without the help of the publication “Model construction” fashioned itself on the basis of the Minsk motorcycle universal cultivator. A good mechanical assistant turned, hard-working. The basis of it, of course, was circumcised (according to the advice of the journal) staff the motorcycle’s frame with mounted power unit and a two-stage chain transmission to the rear axle (from a sidecar of SZA). The handlebar is home-made, like the lining. A well blended with the design of the fuel tank — from “Verkhovyna-3”.
At first glance, what could be simpler than a training glider? A small lengthening of the wing profile is thick, the straps are short. The small set of characteristics, it would seem, is obliged to ensure that the novice pilot is quiet and comfortable flight. That may be so, but, unfortunately, the beginner quickly get tired of just plan, he wants higher and higher. And a struggle begins between the flight characteristics of the machine and the safety of the flight.
In the late 80-ies of the family of light vehicles with a mechanical drive (from motorcycles and snowmobiles to ALS) enriched by a new species ultralight aircraft, received the official (according to the classification of the FAI) the name of the paraglider. However, in colloquial speech it is often called a paramotor (PM), implying underneath the whole apparatus. The word itself was born out of the brand one of the European firms.
the Impetus for this publication was a letter to the editor father and son Roganovich — our readers from the city of Pokhvistnevo Samara region. They sent a newspaper article entitled “Kurochkin invented the motor. “Toyota”, “Ford” and “Chrysler” panicked” and asked to tell more about this engine. Publications on this engine was not only in regional but also national press. You can learn from them about the fact that the invention protected by five patents of Russia, the international patent Bureau in Geneva notified the A. G. Kurochkin on the registration application and the temporary protection of copyright in 31 countries, including Canada, USA, South Korea, and Japan; some foreign car makers offered the inventor to continue working on the engine they have, but he refused, explaining the refusal by wish to leave his invention at Home, in Russia.
Strange trail remains for these sleds, rapidly descending from the mountain: the impression is that someone drove on one ski. And only bends on the side added short stroke of the second track. Unusual sports equipment, the construction of which is available to all lovers of breathtaking skiing the steepest slopes, has developed our reader from Magnitogorsk Sergei Chadin. Made of wood, the sleigh combines originality of design and ease of performance. For their manufacturing are required Board or thick plywood and a saw.
But not to throw out it! And involuntarily thought creeps in to make it a foldable frame. The same as, say, the “Kama”. I reviewed the literature on the subject (including the publication in “M-K” № 3, 1990) and left unsatisfied — too difficult was the recommended design. Had to develop my — more simple. Tried it and now offer to the readers.
