TRICYCLE TX-200

TRICYCLE TKH-200On the roads of Kharkiv, there was one car with the familiar letters of the COI — “Club eternal”. The automotive laboratory of the centre of scientific and technical work is headed by the laureate of many competitions NTTM Valerie L. Taranukha. This time in the neighborhood of the letters KVP caused the index of the TX-200. And the car, unlike all previous is built via a three-wheeled configuration, using the whole back of the scooter T-200. In this part is the main “rational” of the new machine, created the “Club of the eternal search for” V. L. Taranukha, together with the candidate of technical Sciences Y. S. Hojnowski.

THE ELECTROLYTE FOR THE BATTERY

ELECTROLYTE BATTERYHow to make the electrolyte alkaline batteries? What are components, what should be the charging current, how long to charge? Electrolyte — aqueous solution of potassium hydroxide with a density of 1,19 — 1,21 g/cm3 with the addition of 20±1 g/l of lithium hydroxide monohydrate (Li0Н.H20). (This corresponds to GOST 9285-59. At -20±1°C or -40±1°C batteries should work for an aqueous solution of potassium hydroxide with a density of 1.26 — 1.28 g/cm3 without addition of lithium hydroxide.)

BORING FOR RADIO

DRILLING FOR THE RADIO AMATEURWhen faced with the need to drill numerous fine holes in printed circuit boards for electronic devices, it was found that a power drill in this case is not such a good assistant she is loud, and the power of it excessive.
