WHEELS ON ORDER

WHEELS ON ORDERMembers involved in automodelismo, sometimes have great difficulty when I need to make wheels for model kits of cars, rollers for tanks and tractors. At our station of young technicians of the Sverdlovsk district of Irkutsk city developed not too complicated production technology of any wheels with a fairly high degree of copy number.

TRIKE: LAYOUT AND CIRCUIT

TRIKE: LAYOUT AND CIRCUITHang gliding in the 70-ies experiencing a period of rapid development in a short time became a popular sport. The secret of success is primarily due to the simplicity of design and unique performance characteristics of the aircraft. Less than a decade it took to hang gliding to become an Olympic sport. And the desire of athletes to expand the capabilities of the glider due to the start with a flat terrain and climb in the absence of ascending currents has led to that began to appear on the gliders equipped with engines.

ASSISTANT FORECASTER

ASSISTANT FORECASTERWeather service uses a variety of research methods. One of them is the distribution of atmospheric parameters on height. To quickly solve this problem scientists helps small uncontrollable meteorological rocket MMR-06 with solid engine. The maximum height of ascent is 60 km; the instrument complex allows to measure the temperature and pressure of the air to determine the wind velocity vector. Information transfer to the ground by the telemetry system.

MOPED “COTTON GROWER”

MOPED X all-Union week of science, technology and production for children and youth, held in January 1983 in the Uzbek capital, has raised a lot of interesting developments from many cities of the Soviet Union. Including all the way from Tashkent. Specialists, participants and guests of the week were memorable examples of vehicle technology, presented the laboratory “Avtokonstruktor” Tashkent gorsyut. In particular, the moped “the cotton-grower-S-83”, intended for people in rural areas.

SMALL, BUT PERFECTLY FORMED!

SMALL, BUT PERFECTLY FORMED!Walk-behind self-built eager to make the most versatile. This is understandable: it has to perform a variety of agricultural operations. However, to create a design that is most optimal for any work at the farm, is not easy. So, powerful, heavy duty motor-plow, as a rule, is too broad and clumsy in the aisle, and brisk the tiller can’t beat plowing the dense earth. One solution to this problem is offering our reader from Krasnodar territory Vladimir Yakovlev. Its compact one-wheeled tillers will assist in the processing of the beds, will not damage plants close together and, if necessary, in just 10 minutes will turn into two-wheeled motor-plow.

“GUN” TRASTOVIY

The command “Start!” and mixed performance on the race ahead on the highway. Very long lasting-in — 2-3 minutes, but during this time, the miniature machine will take hundreds of turns, each time changing the speed. You have to drastically drop it to moderate before the turn, and then give “full gas” at the straight portion.

VOLTAGE CONVERTER FOR MS

VOLTAGE CONVERTER FOR MSDesigning electronic devices on integrated circuits, radio Amateurs often use to display the information indicators IN gas-1 — IN-16. They usually feed from the mains AC voltage of 220 V or from a separate winding of the transformer. Consequently, the instrument is “tied” to the grid and they can not be used in the field.

GREENHOUSE-GREENHOUSE

GREENHOUSE-GREENHOUSEIn the “M-K” No. 8 for 1984, we talked about the greenhouse arch designs made by students of the Bauman district of Moscow. Its main load-bearing elements — the half-arches — been made of gymnastic hoops. This circumstance is strictly determined size of the greenhouse. But it is tempting to build on the same principle a more spacious and convenient in maintenance construction of a greenhouse. But here’s the problem: the material for poludov frame to find easy.
