Themed collections about simple but efficient home appliances, without which no cost, private courtyard, “modelist-Konstruktor” published a lot (see for example, № 7’92, 5’95, 6’97, 6’99). However, interest in such developments is unabated to the present time, as evidenced by the editorial mail. Their technical devices designed for the use of scrap materials and home technology available to any novice, brings to the readers Solonin — the inventor and innovator, one of the active authors of our journal.
The list of Moto – and electrophotonics that use rural residents, is growing steadily. Along with tractors, tillers, mills, kartoffelschalen, mower they have different fixtures, which they say: IU-lotovka, but the farm will fit. About such seemingly small, but undoubtedly useful devices in our factsheet.
Wags say that invention, they say, are born from laziness. Maybe they’re right. I tired to cut the tops and chop the root vegetables for domestic animals manually — set about creating an electric shredder feed. Memory told where to find the prototype: of course, among the developments of the journal “modelist-Konstruktor”. Indeed, the number 12 in 1992 found a description and sketch Assembly “lubarsky for cows”. But the cone-shaped cups from the separator, which served as the basis of the unit in my possession was not. But there was a sheet of the stainless steel. Made from it a cylindrical “bucket”, which became the shredder feed. And the bottom are made with a flare — for a better connection with the side wall (welding face) and increase the stiffness of the whole structure.
Accurately process small parcel of land on which “serious” technology closely, except that the tillers. Therefore, the prudent farmers, deciding to get a similar unit, first choose the make and weigh its capabilities. And then think about the truck, mounted and trailed equipment that will be needed for your specific job. So was the case with me. The only difference is that I decided not to buy ready-made tillers, and build it yourself. For the sample took the industrial design “the meadow”, Podkopayeva its simplicity. But only a sample because I have assemblies and parts which are markedly different from standing on the prototype. They had to fit, and many components and parts — manufactured again.
Aim to make brisk, reliable and compact tillers. This mechanical helper and was gardening, and the garden is plowed, and beds cut, and the potatoes on the home field were planted, and seedlings are weeded, and the crop was removed… And most importantly, to run this technique, sitting in a comfortable chair and never feel tired. Not to say that once, but the idea was a success. For three years my homemade motor-block (MB) is, as they say, faith and truth. I called it “Pony.” For endurance, reliability. The only thing he requires is gasoline.
