Chapter 94 Generation
【Tickets!】
Facing the arriving boss and guests, Professor Holanger behaved very calmly.
He focused all his attention on simple machines and was indifferent to the people and things around him. No one had any objections to this, even Zhu Jun was used to it and was not surprised at all.
Huang Qiudong awkwardly stepped forward to introduce everyone to Holanger, but was pushed away by Professor Huo in disgust. Then he personally pulled Wu Qi to introduce this simple and crude machine.
Different from the design drawing that Wu Qi first took out, this machine, which looks 80% similar to a treadmill, is completely like a junk product and looks very easy to understand.
As the first experimental machine, its biggest role is to test how much electrical energy people can continuously and stably convert during running, and to calculate the loss.
The entire machine consists of five parts: chassis, treadmill, converter, transmitter and calculator. The core technology lies in the converter, transmitter and chassis.
When the experimenter steps on the treadmill, he can select various running modes as usual, and then starts to warm up and start running, as numbers appear on his running calculator.
The numbers on the calculator will appear on the wall screen. One kilowatt hour of electricity is equal to the number ten, and one hundred is equal to ten kilowatt hours of electricity. This number will appear with a delay.
This is because the conversion of mechanical energy takes time, and there will be a certain amount of loss during the transmission and storage process. The final result will not appear until five minutes after the end of the run.
According to repeated tests, this machine can obtain up to 30 kilowatt-hours of electricity per hour. The faster it is, the higher the electric energy it can obtain. The general running speed is between 15 and 20 kilowatt-hours per hour.
In addition to treadmills, there are other experimental machines in the factory, which are basically similar to various equipment in the gym, except that converters, chassis, and transmitters are added.
The efficiency is different, but the treadmill is the best. Professor Holanger has done many experiments these days and collected a lot of data, which can be clearly compared.
After wandering around the factory for almost an hour, Wu Qi and others left.
"This is different from what you said before. It's even far different!"
Almost as soon as he left the factory gate, Zhu Jun couldn't help but speak.
"This is just an experimental model, the simplest machine." Wu Qi said with a smile, "It is mainly for routine experiments on the converter, transmitter, and chassis. It is not a real new fitness machine."
The technology was indeed handed over to Professor Huo Lange, and he understood it thoroughly, but the actual product still needs to be developed step by step. This is not only the need of Professor Huo, but also the need of real development.
It is difficult to explain clearly by taking out a mature machine at once, but it is more in everyone's interest to update it from generation to generation, and even in terms of cost, it will be much less.
When Zhu Jun heard what Wu Qi said, he felt relieved and did not continue to speak.
Everyone stayed in the small dilapidated factory and ate together in the canteen at noon. Because of the strong capital, the food in the canteen was very delicious.
Professor Holanger does not eat in the cafeteria, but is sent to the factory on a regular basis. There are relevant personnel watching his meals. Even if Professor Holanger does not want to, there is nothing he can do against these people.
This is not because Huang Qiudong is making a fuss, but because Professor Holanger has been studying technology since he came to Xiaopo Factory. It is not an exaggeration to say that he forgets to eat and sleep.
When it comes to the future, why would Huang Qiudong make the professor tired? He was trying to protect the professor's health. This was considered his most important job. After all, there was really nothing to do for the little shabby car.
After lunch, Professor Holanger took the time to come to the meeting upstairs, turned on the projector with a stinking face, and explained the details of the new fitness equipment to Zhu Jun and others.
The experimental machine may not look very good on the outside, but after upgrading, it can be regarded as the first-generation fitness machine. The professor calls it a first-generation thunder machine.
The upgraded Thunder Machine is not a simple modified treadmill, but something similar to an exoskeleton armor, full of a sense of technology.
"The main components are the chassis, pedals, lattice chair and swing arm. The user first sits on the lattice chair, puts his feet on the pedals, and starts the machine, then he can move around naturally."
"Put your palm through the leather buckle and grasp the swing arm, and you can simulate walking and running on flat ground in a very natural state. During the entire process, all kinetic energy will be converted into electrical energy."
Professor Hollanger retrieved the picture with fiery eyes and introduced it to everyone.
Mature products require not only technology, but also assistance in various aspects. For example, in terms of design, they must comply with ergonomics and make users feel beautiful and comfortable.
The first-generation thunder machine does not need to be so troublesome at all, because all the work was taken care of by Max Planck. Professor Holanger only digested the technology step by step and was not interested in other aspects.
Zhu Jun and Zhong Xi couldn't help but pay attention. After seeing the picture of the first-generation Thunder Machine, the two whispered a few words, and then Zhu Jun asked, "Is it safe?"
"Of course it's safe!" Professor Holanger looked at him, "Except for the core part of the thunder machine, the rest of the materials are insulators, not to mention the intelligent detection and protection system."
"What about efficiency? How much electricity can be generated in one hour?" Zhong Xi asked.
"Of course it is better than the test machine," said Professor Holanger. "Regardless of whether you are a man or a woman, as long as you are an adult, you can get an average of 25 degrees of electricity per hour. If you choose the mountain climbing mode or the fast running mode, it can exceed 30 degrees and reach
33 degrees.”
"It's not much higher than the test machine!" Zhu Jun said subconsciously.
"What do you know?" Professor Holanger looked displeased. "Whether it is the lower limit or the upper limit, they all break the standards of the testing machine. The most important thing is that it still has room for improvement."
"It's pretty good," Wu Qi said with a smile. "According to the average data, based on 25 kilowatt hours of electricity, even if it costs 80 cents per kilowatt hour, you can still get 20 yuan."
"That's right," Zhong Xi also nodded. "The key point is that this is just an average figure, it can be higher. In addition, one kilowatt hour can charge a 3,000 mAh mobile phone at least a hundred times. Twenty-five degrees is 2,500 times."
This is just the amount of electricity generated in one hour."
It is very intuitive to say this. Zhu Jun, who was still a little dissatisfied at first, suddenly had nothing to say. And compared with the amount of quantity, the molding of the machine is the most important.
After all, it is a pioneering product, so it doesn't matter if the quantity is small, as long as it is feasible.
Technology is developing and improving. It is impossible to achieve it in one step, but it can be developed step by step. Even if a generation of thunder machines is not satisfactory, it is only one generation.
In the future, I will just slowly improve and improve it. The most important thing is... I really got it done!
