The readers of “M-K” has long been known to experienced lab simulation and design club of young technicians of the Siberian branch of the USSR Academy of Sciences. A development of this laboratory is reflected in the pages of our magazine. We offer you the latest, very, we think, interesting design that was exhibited in the summer exhibition at the VI all-Russian meeting of young rationalizers and engineers. This triple car “March-77”. On his device, says the head of the laboratory of M. L. Larkin.
TWO “VYATKA” — AND THE CAR!
Maximum simplicity, minimum weight and dimensions at optimum amenities available materials, components and assemblies, simplified (not at the expense of quality) manufacturing technology – all this formed the basis for the design of the car, which was later called “Yauza”.
Amphibious Schwimmwagen (Volkswagen Typ 166) — German floating four-wheel drive all terrain vehicle for military use, developed on the basis of “national” Volkswagen Beetle and army all-terrain vehicle VW-82 “Kubelwagen”. Produced from autumn 1942 to the summer of 1944 to the Wehrmacht and the Waffen SS instead of heavy motorcycles with sidecar, appeared on the Eastern front because of low passability on the roads, and especially in slush.
The need for large apertures of various diameters occurs very often. Some cut them with a jigsaw, others use a drill and then sanded the edges with a file, others are turning to so-called centraliza — fit to a normal drilling machine.
What happens if you cut a cylinder and two parallel planes at an angle to its axis and to replace the resulting “pancakes” wheels of a conventional car? It turns out that in the end we will get the vehicle of the increased passability. On normal roads this car moves exactly the same as a car with standard wheels, because at any point, the distance from the road to the axis remains constant, equal to the radius of the cylinder. Of course, with the difference that leaving a trail is not straight, but curved in the form of a sine wave.
The coil is the most convenient form of packaging thin sheet materials and for the transportation and storage in warehouses. Foil, a synthetic film or paper in a tightly collapsed become a monolith, convenient in handling and are not particularly suffering from the hard grips of different mechanisms.
This little car (Fig. 1) I did back in 1972, and it is already my second son, Sasha. He was only three years, but he leads the electric car is almost like a real chauffeur. The car became a favorite toy of kids all around, and how else — steering, brakes, lighting, sound signal, turn on the rear — all on this car!
