AS THE POLISHER WAS THE MOWERIn suburban areas, though small in size, usually have enough space not only for the vegetable garden and berry bushes, but I cultural grassy lawn. And he also needs care: every two weeks we have to mow. Pondering the mechanization of such mowing, paid I attention to is perched in the corner, an old floor polisher P-2. It’s almost ready based electrocoil a powerful motor 350 watts. I have set a goal to make the design such that it was possible to quickly assemble, disassemble: “translate” foot in the mower and Vice versa. And formulated the problem like this — equip P-2 circular knife and put on wheels. That is the main work consisted in the fabrication of the chassis for future mower.

MINI TRACTOR: FROM SCHEME TO PLOWING

MINI-TRACTOR FROM THE PLOW“Manual labor is performed by machines!” — under this title was published in our journal materials from the all-Union conference VISKHOM named after V. P.

The performances of the participants on the importance and necessity of development of means of mechanization of cute, the editors have opened a correspondence “round table” at the same time, we invited readers to send drawings and diagrams of their machines and asked to share the experience of their construction, manufacture, operation.
 
Give the word Victor A. Chirkov, Amateur designer of the suburban town of Lotoshino. He has accumulated considerable experience of creating small tools today introduces its latest development — a mini-tractor MT-5.

THE DRILL – CULTIVATOR

DRILL - CULTIVATORWe have already talked about the agricultural arrangements, where the engine used electric mowers — rotary and shearers knife (see No. 9 of 1980, No. 2, 1981), plough on electric (see # 9 in 1981). Now offering new construction on the same basis — the cultivator of the soil. First, obviously, you need to explain why I designed the mechanism, the main purpose of which is plowing and this scheme — in the form of electrodyalisis. Why not go for more or less beaten path, taking up a walk-behind plow. First of all, it dictated the small size of the treated area and high density of planting tillers are simply not to turn around. Then had to take into account the weight of the guns and power, developing a medium amount of torque just 3 kg. With this machine will easily cope and teenager and woman, and elderly people.

But the motorcycles in the current year is expected to sell nearly half a million. Maybe here lies the reserve of the missing trucks for gardens? Indeed, many Amateur designers rebuild their cars in trucks. Did it D. I. Chernyshev from the city of Kasli of the Chelyabinsk region. He designed from your motorbike tricycle tractor with two rear driving wheels to use on farms, to carry on the truck-semitrailer vegetables and potatoes from the garden.
