Chapter 38 Self-maintenance

After listening to the explanation of "crashed iron", Chi Heng understood that the radioactive isotope temperature difference battery originally installed on the robot, although the energy stored in it is terrible, it can only generate electricity at a fixed power. This leads to the robot's use

Without so much electricity, it can only be wasted by thermal radiation.

But the designers certainly don’t care. Anyway, the energy of radioactive isotope temperature differential generators is almost "infinite" within the design period, and if it is wasted, it will be wasted.

If the carbon fiber composite structure battery is replaced, it is equivalent to an ordinary battery and it will definitely need to be supplemented after use.

“Can Sir, Junk, Junk use these parts to modify?”

"Broken Iron" turned his head and looked at Chi Heng.

It is obviously not intentionally tilted, but the support structure supporting its head is already unstable.

"Use it."

Chi Heng said it didn't matter, he couldn't use these parts here anyway.

"By the way, let's see what this is?"

Chi Heng led the "dirty iron" up the stairs and came to the basement, pointing to the super-large black square cabinet with a height of more than three meters and a width of two meters.

If a robot can repair itself, what does it mean?

Robots that can repair themselves generally need to digitally model themselves. When scanning themselves does not match digital modeling, they can analyze and repair the mismatched areas.

Chi Heng was shocked. He didn't expect that the basement cabinet was actually a large radioactive nuclear battery. He was also shocked by the power output. With such a huge power, it can generate 400 degrees of electricity per hour, and 9,600 degrees of electricity per day.

It can reach 288,000 kilowatt-hours in a month.

Of course, he was also worried, and then he quietly came to the basement warehouse to observe the movement of "bad copper and iron". He found that it had no illegal actions, but was remodeling seriously... Its left arm actually designed a focus laser beam

, laser radiation directly heats the surface of the component, so that it melts instantly, and produces specific small holes. As the speed of light continues to enter the small hole, the material around the small hole also flows with it, and the molten metal on the hole wall is guided by the leading laser beam.

Move down and forward, and soon fill the gap left by the laser beam after it is moved away and condenses, so the weld is formed.

If the robot before was ragged, it could be seen that its body was very high-end and had a strong texture, but it was very different at this time, with a feeling of a rich man turning into a beggar.

After Chi Heng finished his advice, he went to prepare his own business and let the "scrap iron" return to the basement warehouse.

"Yes, Sir, Junk rebuilt a new arm with a total of 12 joints, replaced with a new high-resolution camera, laser rangefinder and inertial measurement unit, haptic sensor, and 32 new brushed ones

Although the DC motor is very backward compared to Junk's previous parts, it can run normally, and Junk can continue to help Sir."

"Broken Copper and Iron" clumsyly turned around in place, like a little duck learning to walk.

"Okay, but you're like that, I mean how long does your battery last you?"

Chi Heng peeked for a long time and then closed the basement warehouse door to prevent noise from disturbing him sleeping.

When he woke up the next morning, Chi Heng opened the door of the basement warehouse with two dark circles, walked down the stairs, and found that the "bad copper and iron" had almost changed.

Chi Heng said in confusion.

In fact, even after closing the door, there was still noise disturbing him, and he fell asleep afterwards.

"But so much power generation... this basement shouldn't be used much, where did the excess power go?"

"Radical isotope temperature differential generator arrays generally require backup heat dissipation and heat dissipation systems. The electricity that cannot be used will be converted into thermal energy."

"You...a big modification."

"Broken copper and iron" can understand the natural language and the logic of dialogue between Chi Heng. The self-repair is not a specific area and planned order, but a brand new modification, which means that the other party's AI has achieved a very good

To be powerful, at least part of the "strong artificial intelligence" rather than "weak artificial intelligence".

Chi Heng suddenly thought of Shei Lake next to him. Maybe Shei Lake is used to dissipate heat.

Chi Heng walked over, and the "bad iron" speaker sound unit was finally no longer harsh and stuttering, and shouted clearly: "Sir, Junk has repaired part of his body, Junk thanks Sir for his help."

Chi Heng said in surprise.

"Broken copper and iron" said: "The bottom of this should be, it should be opened, designed, and a cooling system was designed."

Although this square cabinet generates terrible power generation, it can generate 9,600 degrees of electricity a day. However, in theory, 1 °C electric energy boils 8 kilograms of water (from 0 degrees Celsius to 100 degrees Celsius), and 9,600 degrees Celsius boils 76,800 kg of water, which is only 76.8 cubic meters.

Just water.

"This is, this is a radioisotope temperature differential generator array..."

Compared with the entire Lake Shei, at least millions of cubic meters of water is indeed insignificant. It is perfect to use groundwater to connect Lake Shei to make a nuclear battery cooling system.

The support skeleton of the body has not changed, but the arms that can be attached to the skeleton have all changed. Perhaps it is because of insufficient accuracy of laser cutting and laser welding and the inability to polish, resulting in the remade arms of "cracked iron", such as arms.

The mechanical claws at the end look very rough, and the welding marks are even more obvious.

"Okay, see if you have anything to use, try to use it, don't mess up the basement warehouse... By the way, if you don't have my permission, don't open the door that comes in."

But this is just a simple principle, and there will be quite a lot of problems in actual operation. In terms of details, even tightening a screw requires precise algorithms. In addition, just like humans cannot apply sunscreen to their whole body,

Just like if you need help from others, robots also have angles that cannot be used. Self-maintenance is very difficult and cost-effective.

"Broken copper and iron" points to an inconspicuous engraved number at the corner of the square cabinet, "Model, model is PT-35871, design, design electric output power 400kW, design service, service life of 110 years."

No wonder the refrigerator and freezer in the basement has been frozen with canned and frozen meat for more than ten years. Because of such an exaggerated power supply equipment, there is no need to worry about power shortage.

"Sir, calculated based on the current battery curve, can work continuously for 30 hours at normal minimum power consumption, and can run continuously for 7 hours at maximum power consumption..."

“Sir, Junk also needs your help…”

"Broken copper iron" turned around, "Junk still has screws that need to be tightened..."

Under its guidance, Chi Heng first placed the gasket in the corresponding position, and then used screws and nuts from No. 10-24 and No. 8-32 to help tighten.
