Chapter 1194 From Four-Wheeler to Easy-to-Use Spinning Machine (2-in-1)
Facts have proved that the saying that one bite cannot make you fat is quite correct.
Of course, except for the long worm that swallows prey that is thicker than its own body, causing its body to grow larger and bloated at a speed visible to the naked eye, and directly becomes a big fat man.
Han Cheng now deeply understands the wisdom brought by this common saying,
When he first tried to make a spinning machine, he wanted to spin as many threads as possible at one time to greatly improve work efficiency.
But after some experiments, it was discovered that under the current technical conditions, this simply did not work.
In the end, all the extra wooden pillars were removed, leaving only the middle one.
Looking at the simple spinning machine that had spun a lot of yarn under Bai Xuemei's operation, Han Cheng couldn't help but smile.
So far, it seems that I have figured out a lot of things and found the basic principles.
On the basis of the current simple spinning machine, Han Cheng continued to solve and adjust the problems that emerged. Han Cheng believed that he would be able to create a useful spinning machine.
When you are in a good mood, your appetite is good.
Han Cheng ate two and a half bowls of vegetable soup with millet rice before he stopped eating.
"Let's go, stop studying it now, go back and have a good sleep, and then continue working on it when you get up."
Han Cheng finished the last bite of his meal and looked at Bai Xuemei, who was still sitting on the pier, shaking a simple spinning machine and constantly experiencing this novel thing, and said this aloud.
Han Cheng spoke, and the always well-behaved child bride immediately stopped her hand, stood up, and followed Han Cheng, who was carrying an empty bowl and chopsticks, out of the courtyard of the carpenter's room and headed towards the house where the two lived.
After people let go of their worries, the quality of their sleep will improve.
Originally, Han Cheng wanted to take a short nap, then get up and start researching and making changes on the spinning machine that had achieved a small success. However, when he woke up, he found that the sun had already shifted to the west.
Already...
Rubbing his eyes and sitting here in a daze for a while, Han Cheng shook his head, stood up and walked outside.
When he woke up like this, he felt refreshed and his whole body felt extremely comfortable.
Bai Xuemei was under the shade of a tree not far away, using a string spinning top to tighten the string.
There is a small cradle next to it, and a little baby is lying in the cradle.
The little baby opened its round eyes and sucked one of its own fingers with relish and saliva dripping, as if it had eaten a supreme delicacy.
Seeing Han Cheng come out, Bai Xuemei didn't stop moving her hands and smiled at Han Cheng.
Seeing such a scene, Han Cheng couldn't help but smile.
I feel extremely warm in my heart, and the beauty in the world is mostly like this...
Han Cheng didn't ask such nonsense as why Bai Xuemei didn't call him up. He walked over and looked at the little son in the cradle, made a face with his teeth and claws for a while, and then reached out to touch Bai Xuemei's head.
Then he bent down and reached out to pick up his youngest son. He held the movable cradle in his other hand and headed towards the carpenter's room.
Without Han Cheng opening his mouth, Bai Xuemei followed Han Cheng towards the carpenter's room.
This has become a habit developed by the two of them in the past few days.
Arriving at the small yard of the carpenter's room where Han Cheng was making spinning machines, Han Cheng placed the half-carried and half-pulled cradle in the darkest place, placed his little son inside, and let him continue playing.
Bai Xuemei came over with a chair, placed it next to the cradle, and continued spinning here with a light and casual spinning top.
As for Han Cheng, he began to think about how to modify this simple spinning machine.
The spinning machine of this test product can indeed be used, but it is not convenient and the efficiency is not high.
After Bai Xuemei's previous experiments, she found that in the same amount of time, the spinning speed of such a spinning machine is not even as fast as that of Bai Xuemei's own spinning top.
When a situation like this happens, you don't need to think too much to know that the thing Han Cheng created is quite useless.
Han Cheng is currently thinking about how to transform it here.
If you want to increase the spinning speed, you need to make these fibers spin faster.
In other words, this simple spinning machine needs to rotate faster.
After Han Cheng sat here and thought for a while, he reached out and grasped the handle of this simple spinning machine and started spinning it quickly.
The speed was extremely fast, and some whining sounds were made.
Things that come quickly will probably retreat faster.
Han Cheng maintained this speed for a short time before his speed gradually slowed down and finally stopped.
Under Bai Xuemei's surprised gaze, Han Cheng shook his tired arms and shook his head.
Relying on this method of spinning quickly to speed up spinning is not possible. It is too tiring, even more tiring than using a thread top.
Spinning is something that takes a long time.
Now in such a short period of time, people feel tired, so this is obviously not successful, and there are still many things that need to be improved.
But how can it be improved?
How to solve this troublesome problem?
Han Cheng sat down and thought about this simple spinning machine.
He had a vague feeling that as long as he solved this problem, the spinning machine would basically be able to be solved by him.
But how to solve this problem?
Han Cheng fell into deep thinking.
This kind of thinking lasted for about half a day.
Until Bai Xuemei, who was sitting nearby and spinning with a spinning top, thought that Brother Cheng had fallen asleep, Han Cheng, who had been supporting his head with his hands and keeping a motionless posture, finally stood up.
He stood up and walked to the side.
After picking up some materials in the carpenter's room, I walked over with some materials in my arms.
These materials are some bamboo wood and some extremely strong vines that can be used as ropes.
Han Cheng put these things down, thought for a while, turned around and returned to the carpenter's room, and came out in a short while.
There is one more thing in my hand.
This is a chisel made of bronze.
Han Cheng put down the chisel and began to dismantle the simple spinning machine.
The main thing is to separate the rotating main body from the frame below that supports it and allows it to rotate.
After separating it, Han Cheng laid it flat on the ground and carved out a total of six points evenly around the column in the middle of the wooden column.
Then I picked up the chisel and ax and started to drill holes at these points one by one.
After doing this for a while, six eyes of about the same size and depth were punched in sequence.
Han Chenggong found suitable wood from the bamboo materials he brought and cut it into six lengths.
After repairing one end of each, nail one of them into the six holes on the wooden pillar and fix it firmly.
Then Han Cheng used a longer vine to wrap around the tops of the six bamboos one by one, and finally fixed them together end to end.
In this case, a circle is completed.
If you ignore the material and the overly large axle, you will find that the thing made by Han Cheng is very similar to the bicycle wheels of later generations.
After carefully inspecting it and confirming that it was sturdy and had no problems, Han Cheng began to install it on the wooden shelf.
After a while, Han Cheng stopped and began to raise the height of the shelf.
If the shelf is not heightened, the wheel, which has a much enlarged diameter, will hit the ground and cannot rotate at all.
After a lot of work, Han Cheng put the wheel-like thing on the elevated shelf and fixed it.
One side of this big wheel is equipped with a handle that can be shaken by hand. On the other side of the wheel, there is a slender wooden post on the outermost circle for hanging the thread.
Han Cheng held the wooden handle with his hand and shook it several times. It was fairly light.
"Come here and try to see how you are doing now and see if it feels better."
Han Cheng said this to Bai Xuemei, who was not far away.
Hearing Han Cheng's greeting, Bai Xuemei, who had been paying attention to the situation here, immediately put down the spinning top in her hand, walked to Han Cheng's side, and skillfully tied the fibers to the modified spinning top.
On top of the small wooden post above the yarn machine that is specially used to tie fibers.
Then he squatted next to the spinning machine, holding the fiber in one hand, and the other hand holding the handle of the spinning machine and started shaking it, trying to weave with the newly modified spinning machine.
But just at the beginning, some problems were already discovered.
For example, now the handle on the spinning machine and the wooden post on the spinning machine are located on both sides of the big wheel.
If a person wants to work with this kind of spinning machine, his two hands need to be on both sides of the spinning machine.
In other words, people have a perpendicular relationship with the spinning wheel of the spinning machine.
At the beginning, when the spinning machine did not have this big wheel, there was no problem in doing this. In this posture, you can still spin without feeling so uncomfortable or awkward.
But it can't be done now. Now the wheels have become much bigger, and people's arm span is limited. Under such circumstances, to ensure that your body will not rub against the wheels so that the wheels can rotate normally, Bai Xuemei takes the fiber
That hand cannot extend too far outside.
It cannot move too much outward, which means that the distance between the hand and the wheel is short, and it is impossible to spin too much yarn at one time.
Moreover, the reason why Han Cheng came up with such a big wheel was because he was thinking that if the wheel of the spinning machine became larger, the rotation speed would become faster.
Now it seems that this is impossible.
Bai Xuemei holds the wooden handle with her hand and shakes it. If she shakes the wooden handle with her hand, the big wheel will rotate one circle.
The speed of wheel rotation does not increase as the diameter of the wheel increases.
Standing here watching Bai Xuemei spin yarn for a while, Han Chenggong stopped it.
Judging from the current situation, there is no need to continue testing.
Because the problem now is already very big!
Bai Xuemei stopped her movements obediently, and then returned to the edge of the cradle.
At this time, Little Huangdou, who had fallen asleep while playing, had woken up at this time and had the tendency to make trouble.
Bai Xuemei, a mother-in-law, obviously has ample experience in this matter.
She bent down and picked it up, and then began to feed the child.
Little Wandou, who was about to make a fuss just now, calmed down instantly.
Han Cheng sat here, and after watching his wife feeding the child for a while, he once again turned his attention to the spinning machine in front of him, which was still not easy to use, and fell into deep thinking. He only felt that he
All my hair is falling out...
The weather was hot, and the scorching sun shone on the ground as if it were on fire.
On the wheat field, the roaring four-wheel tractor was connected to the winnowing machine through a belt, rotating the thing rapidly and making a whirring sound.
A strong wind came from it, blowing the wheat chaff far away, leaving only the clean wheat...
Han Cheng woke up from his sleep, opened his eyes and saw a piece of moonlight falling through the gourd shed.
Han Cheng lay there without moving, feeling the tranquility of the moonlit night and the beauty of the dream just now.
Recalling the dream just now, his thoughts were suddenly pulled back. Suddenly, he was not in primitive society now, but had returned to the time and age that he could not go back to...
The warm and somewhat desolate mood disappeared of course with the appearance of the constantly rotating wheel on the front of the four-wheeled vehicle and the rotating winch machine.
Han Cheng, who was lying there quietly, suddenly sat up. The moonlight shone on his face, and there seemed to be light shining in his eyes.
He is sitting here, his eyes sparkling.
After a while, he got up, took advantage of the moonlight, and walked towards the carpenter's room...
A light lit up somewhere in the carpenter's room, flickering slowly in the night breeze.
Han Cheng is sitting here, busy with tools in his hands.
Sometimes he would be busy for a long time, and sometimes he would stop and think for a while...
Time passed quietly little by little, and before you knew it, the sky was already bright.
Bai Xuemei woke up, turned around and looked but did not see Han Cheng.
On the bed where Han Cheng slept, only little peas were left.
Brother Cheng woke up without knowing when and got up.
As if she had a telepathic connection, Bai Xuemei, who stood here for a while, walked towards the carpenter's room.
In the small courtyard of the carpenter's room, Han Cheng was holding a wooden handle with his hand and turning a simple spinning machine, making some noise.
The spinning machines at this time had undergone great changes.
The style of the big wheels has not changed, and has also been trimmed to make it more tidy.
Next to the large wheel with a diameter of nearly one meter, there is an additional small wheel connected to it...
