The design, which will be discussed, could be called a potato harvester as it consists of several relatively independent units. The potato is intended to be coupled primarily with a mini-tractor “Ocarinas”, whose description is published in the “Modeller-designer” № 12 in 1996, But since it has a standalone engine, it can be paired with any truck, regardless of, he has a PTO or not. A horse harnessed! I think that the concept of my machine will be useful for other Amateur designers who create their own agricultural machinery.
DIGGING WITHOUT LOSS
We are not talking about dancing on beds, and about the original garden tool with which time-consuming, running from time immemorial bayonet shovel (in the best case — the special fork) work on the “home” plots become even elderly people (author and tester this design is over seventy).
Aircraft mechanic M. A. Masters is one of the remarkable constellation of Amateur designers, which has always been proud of the Udmurt ground. He has such serious works as Delta – and paragliders, airplane of his own design and restored Yak-18T, various tools and much more. Today all the works of the craftsman directed to complete the Assembly of a small wheeled tractor, and we invite readers to get acquainted with one of his developments — motoliberty “Mole”. On the pages of our magazine this issue was raised several times, but still remains relevant, as in most of the regions and cities of Russia, the administration is going to meet the residents, allocating land for farming. I think, this versatile unit is indispensable in many cases.
When I want to emphasize that someone has done a great job, in search of a suitable comparison involuntarily turn to the laborious digging of the earth and say: “They shovelled so much!” Then each at once all becomes clear, and his memory will surely emerge and the intractability of the soil, and aching back, and blisters on the hands…
The picnic, which happened to be with friends, will be remembered not only by the abundance of impressions, positive EMOTIONS, but also the uniqueness of what and how food fueled its organizers. After all, improvised marching steam tables this time served… cardboard box from under the computer, pre-laminated on the inside with aluminum foil. And as unconventional source of energy has made itself the southern sun.
Every gardener seeks more efficient to heat your greenhouse. One of the best methods of utilization of solar heat, nakaplivaetsya! on South or East wall of the stone house. To build eliteplace is quite simple. Primarily along the walls of the house dig a trench depth of 1.1 m and a width of 0.8 m. It forms the track along which you can walk among the plants. The rest of the greenhouse is a garden.
“Potatoes are often called the second bread. Only easy this bread gets. Especially without the use of nepamirstama tillers and small tractors, with the only hope for a spade, Yes a spade. About a year ago, “modelist-Konstruktor” sort of decided to help by posting a good development of the tracer-the potato made from water-gas supply pipes. But then seems to have forgotten the promise to return to the topic of mechanization in the cultivation of labour-intensive crop, which is a pity. V. Ivankov”.
The experience of potato growers says the Dutch technology of cultivation of root crops is the most efficient, and the work is minimal. And rows of clean, smooth, and the harvest excellent. And the basis of all — well organized boarding and, of course, good equipment. I offer readers a short story about the technology and the design of small hand harvester — experienced assistant growers. It can make any novice homebrew.
Having a pretty powerful compact drive, the electric long gone among the leaders of household tools. And with the attachments, all kinds of fixtures are not averse and in agricultural work to become a foremost: already mows, threshes, and other operations performs excellently. The universal becomes! Moreover, with the light hand of the inhabitant of Leningrad region Vladimir Morozov drill successfully “mastering” even the arable business, as regularly informs readers “modelist-Konstruktor”.
Submersible vibration electric pumps Malysh, Rucheek — not uncommon for systems of Autonomous supply of small enterprises, including farmers. They are compact, easy to use, they have quite a reasonable price. But here’s the problem: before the freezing temperatures of such pumps, alas, I fold. When you turn off the pump in winter the water as it is locked in a feed hose, and having no drain hole, freezes.
