(Continued. Beginning at No. 10, 1975) 5. THE MOST CRITICAL NODES
Traffic safety and ease of control of desired self-made car, probably even more than serial. After all, “home” often run not too experienced drivers, and passengers do not have such protection, what is the serial car pressed steel body. So Amateur avtostroitel should pay particular attention to steering and brakes, and perfection of these mechanisms will have to achieve by simple means and without weighting of the car. The correct device of steering control and increase the vehicle stability, prevent excessive tire wear.
Today we’ll explain how on the basis of a moped or scooter (or rather, their main nodes) to make not too difficult aeropuer – a vehicle driven by a propeller. He walks well on ice and Packed snow. However, try to “teach” him like a snowmobile equipped with ski to overcome the drifts is not necessary, power motorbike engine for this purpose is clearly not enough.
Since childhood I dreamed about the chopper, stylish and respectable motorcycle that will feel confident on the road and graceful log-in steep turns. Finally my dream partly came true (or rather, I made it myself) — and I have a similar camera. Let not a chopper, as it were, a reduced copy, but riding on it is also a pleasure.
Copenhagen, 1934. International aviation exhibition. Among the machines for the development of the North paid particular attention to the snowmobiles of OSG-6. Comfortable and shared, they differed from the other designs of technology, a good layout. Powerful aircraft engine M-11 allowed them to reach the speed of 80 km/h.
The speed of fast motor vessels — boats, scooters and even simple boats — are growing. This is logical not only in sports but also in everyday operation of such ships, because the increased speed of some vehicles inevitably make others, at this stage, lagging, or catch up, or to go from the arena, replaced by a more reliable, fast and economical. But the growth speed on the water is not as painless a process as it might seem at first glance.
“Suli’s not pie in the sky, give it to the bird in hand…” So says an old Russian proverb. Don’t know whether it was guided by the famous Lithuanian designer Bronis Oszkinis, creating your initial glider training, to which he gave the name (in Lithuanian “ZIL”). At the all-Union meeting of workers and youth gliding schools and the design of the asset held by the magazine “modelist-Konstruktor”, “Tit” was unanimously recognized as the best ka date training glider. This car can now be seen on many club airfields in our country. Very simple in design and reliable in operation, it has won wide sympathy not only of the younger generation of glider pilots making their first steps in the sky, and veterans of aviation sports.
What could be easier and more efficient wheel? This question asked a students of MVTU named after N. E. Bauman, and replies to it may serve as the exhibition NTTM-76, which aroused universal interest of visitors. This interest is not accidental: the mechanisms were distinguished by the uniqueness, originality, novelty.
The first time he saw the race cars “buggy”, I remembered the frontline episode: on a country road, mutilated by bombs and shells, was speeding lorry. The road was exposed to fire of the enemy. Only people desperate bravery could decide to slip a completely open stretch of about a kilometer. And only extreme necessity could have forced him to do it. As it turned out, the driver of this lorry then volunteered to take ammunition to the infantry battalion heroically fend tank attacks of the enemy.
In recent decades, the pollution and poisoning of the waters of the World ocean reached unprecedented proportions and has increased so much that there is an urgent need in creation of special technical means for oil collection from water surface.
