Lots of good ones. #10 There must be a good reason for having an over complicated, non robust, replacement for a crankshaft. Or too clever by two thirds?
Pretty graphic. But I'd bet it would need some kind of rotating mass, not shown, to facilitate the return stroke (assumes 2-cycle). Does do away with gearing. Lots of cyclic thrust load on those bearings, though. Would be very tough to add cylinders, shafting would get very long. I don't think this would ever be a practical drive.
Except a torpedo has six pistons arranged in a circle, driving connecting rods connected to a swashplate, with an output shaft at the center of the swashplate. It uses self-oxidizing liquid hydrocarbon fuel.
#10 - WHY?! Why would you ever do something so abominable? It's not going to have any advantage over the simpler methods AT ALL. It's just stupid overly complicated crapola.
Not stupid at all. Rotary to rectilinear demonstration. For all the mechanical wonderments, an evolution in movements first had to take place. There are machines still in use today that one might think of as inelegant.
I reckon this guy was having fun in making his timewaster.

I think that #10 is used in certain parts of robotics, such as industrial robots. I think that I saw something similar to this used in an aluminum die cast robot when I was an aluminum furnace operator. It has been a long time ago, and I didn't pay much attention to that part of the operation, since I dealt mostly with making sure that the robot was able to always have molten aluminum ready to dip and inject. On a side note, one part that we made there used magnesium in the aluminum, which was injected into a mold that made the steering wheel frame for a Toyota automobile. As someone who had never seen the die cast process, it was interesting to watch it in operation, even though I just kept the aluminum hot and ready to go. The method of maintaining a molten state was by using natural gas flames blowing directly down upon the molten bath. After I left that job, maybe 2 months later, a different furnace operator burned the place to the ground by misusing a huge rosebud natural gas torch. We used that in order to melt any aluminum that solidified in the trough that brought the alloy to the reservoir.
#1 I blame the man. He is too old to be that stupid. A young man I get they need to learn. You never, ever do anything remotly mechanical with the majority of women. They just do not get it. I light the fuse, the rocket ignites then you let go. Got it? Yup. Bullshit, they will say yes and haven't a clue. The proof is in the video. I aint dumping on anybody, it's just the way it is.
Agreed; arrow is too flexible (light spine), bends more than required to clear riser (bow handle). Arrow is likely extremely long. Intentional poor release magnifies effect.

DeleteNo differential...
DeleteThat type of motor allows a MK 48 torpedo to achieve a very high speed.

Anony, #5, that only works with the bow horizontal. I've seen others do that.

ReplyDelete#5 Archer's paradox amplified by lightweight arrow spine.
ReplyDeleteAgreed; arrow is too flexible (light spine), bends more than required to clear riser (bow handle). Arrow is likely extremely long. Intentional poor release magnifies effect.
ReplyDeleteIs #10 a new mechanism for male robots. Or maybe a new female toy?
