Folding bike nowadays. However, its dimensions even when folded great, and to keep it at home and even more to transport on the bus or tram is not always convenient.
Moscow engineer I. Sorokin has set a goal to develop a convenient folding bike smallest possible folded size. The outcome was a two-wheeled machine which after the transformation is placed in the bag with the dimensions 650x450x150 mm.
The need for a cargo trailer occurs periodically when it is necessary to carry does not fit the vehicle or soiling the cargo over long distances. Trucking services are very expensive, and the prices of finished industrial trailers is just insane. After buying a new car, especially on credit, trailer, of course, not buy…
And therefore decided to make a trailer for “Vase” himself (!) and stated this in the family circle. Native people are not to flatter, but because the views were most unexpected, and some even unflattering! But the probability of big savings won all doubts.
It all started last year when I became increasingly commute to work by bike, because the expectations in the automobile crowd, after work, the moment of arrival home began to strain more and more. Trip from home to work took time almost as well as by car. But given the fact that the road passed a large part of the roads where there was practically no movement of cars along the coastal strip of the reservoir and picturesque alleys, which was carried out in the morning warm-up sport-oriented people, and the shore was decorated with a yawning fishermen with fishing rods – Cycling brought also moral satisfaction from watching everything happening around.
So call your plane the club-model airplanes and their leader — Vadim B. Rumyantsev from the city of Privolzhsk, Ivanovo region, whose hands at the local station of young technicians (syt) it was created. They say that recreational aviation is an expensive hobby, and it’s hard to disagree. But, after familiarizing with the design of the aircraft, it becomes clear that the materials used in its manufacture, and power plant, which it is equipped, not scarce and not so expensive. It seems that such aircraft can build even those who have financial resources, that is, below average. Of course, one of Finance and a love for aviation for self-built aircraft is not enough. Need special knowledge, skills, and it’s still — enviable tenacity in achieving their goals. That’s why the boys and their mentors give the plane a name is “Persistent”. Today, E. B., Rumyantsev talks about his plane readers.
Sketch small motomobile truck, about which speech will go, I found in an old folder during the big tidy-bulkhead in garage archive. They are inspired by memories of the days when the passion for technical creativity: the production of self-made cars, boats, aircraft and various other structures have been possible to say mass.
Before you start talking about the car, imagine its Creator and the author of the article Yuri Ivanovich Algebraists. All his conscious life is connected with technology, and its most part — improvised science — “SamAvto”, as called by the people of this movement. He and his machine largely represent a movement, become a legend, a classic and pride.
The propeller as the propeller has long attracted my attention. When the “Modeller-designer” were published about cars, it convinced me to make a similar design.
Maybe in the proposed aircar (or rather to say – aeromotor) no special innovative ideas, but the value of it is. he is quite simple and make it possible even for the novice designer, lover from available materials and components using conventional hand plumbing and carpentry tools. Parts that require machine work, almost there. However, the frame needed welding machine.
The machine was conceived as a utility vehicle on which to carry at least small loads for the household in terms of “winter” and the winter terrain.
Made it mostly from materials available at the time available at hand. Well, the power unit of an old motorcycle “Voskhod” repaired, I have been waiting in the wings to be applied in the case. This is the same bike used handlebar, fuel tank and other components. In the manufacture of powertrain and chassis many elements borrowed from the combine “Niva” — from him and the windshield.
For a long time I enjoyed long ago acquired by manual uniaxial shopping cart (unfortunately, information about the manufacturer not preserved). But remember, in the passport on the cart was given data: load capacity — 25 kg weight — 6.5 kg. the Trolley is made, that is, the conscience, the design is reliable, very simple moves from transport to working position, and it happens that I’m on it loads up to 50 kg, that is twice the nameplate figure. Now it is clear that the manufacturer of the truck was safe and resulted in low capacity, as the possibility of a much larger truck. The developer could specify the actual value of the load capacity, but it was necessary to test truck durability.
Some fishing without a boat? Especially on large bodies of water. Want to make an original, near-silent boat? To business, then.
Look at the picture. Interesting boat, built on the basis of inner tubes and beach chairs, offers the readers of the American magazine “Popular mechanics”. Equipped with oars or a light motor, it is able to quietly move around the pond, allowing silent access to your favorite places. Sitting in a boat, you can just drift or drift along the river, choosing your favorite area.
