Chapter 593: Stuck Titan
5 min read1,272 words
The foreman is indeed better at using pneumatic picks than the previous
pilots. After understanding how to operate the mining Titans, he quickly used
the pneumatic picks equipped on the mining Titans to continue on the rock wall
in front of them. Interrupted work, and soon broke a piece of rock wall into
rubble.
It was just that when the foreman planned to clean out the mined ore as usual,
he found that the equipment on his body restricted his movements and froze
there for a while.
"You can pick up the ore and put it in the back mine bucket." The researcher
thought he didn't know where to put the ore, so he reminded him.
But Chen Xin slapped him and said, "He can't bend down and can't pick up the
ore from the ground."
After being reminded by Chen Xin, the researcher immediately reacted and
hurriedly came to the foreman's side. After taking a look at the equipment on
his body, he hurriedly said: "He is wearing ordinary protective clothing, and
the life support equipment on his back is simplified. The structure of the
machine withstood, so he couldn't bend down. In the original design, he could
squat down and pick up ore."
Regarding this explanation, Chen Xin nodded his head with understanding. This
is not a weird thing. After all, it is a Titan. Even if it is a simplified
version of the beggar, it is very simple to carry a set of life support
equipment on it.
However, such a design is not practical in Chen Xin's view, because the
protective clothing itself has life-support equipment, and it would be
redundant to redesign a new protective clothing to drive the Titan.
As for how this is now designed like this... Titan drivers are not wearing
protective suits, but Titan driving suits. The life support equipment on their
bodies is different from the structure of ordinary protective suits.
This kind of problem is actually quite common in design, because when
researchers first design something, they first consider achieving the core
goal and solving problems, and then improving on the basis of achieving the
core goal, adding Other design goals.
Before finalization, everything can still be modified, and this is the purpose
of the test.
Find out the shortcomings or unreasonable areas and make corrections.
But watching the foreman unlock the fixed connection on his body with the help
of the researcher and the Titan pilot, and get off the mining Titan, Chen Xin
frowned and went to the simplified version of the Titan, and motioned for
several people to let go. After picking up a larger piece of ore on the ground
and putting it in the mine bucket, he asked the foreman: "How many times do
you repeat this kind of work a day?"
"We haven't counted this. It always happens dozens of times a day. This is
related to the hardness of the rock wall and the efficiency of our work." The
foreman looked a little cautious when facing Chen Xin.
Chen Xin nodded, looked at the researcher, and asked him: "I saw that there is
a Daao auxiliary loading and unloading ore on the prototype machine, why is
this design removed from the simplified machine?"
"This..." The researcher was stunned by Chen Xin's question, and then slowly
explained: "The design is not very stable, and the operation is a bit
complicated, it feels not very convenient, and cost considerations, so the
simplified version This design was cancelled and changed to what it is now."
Hearing what the researcher said, Chen Xin shook his head helplessly, and said
to him: "Although simplifying the structure and reducing costs are important,
you have done too much! No matter how complex the design is, it is better than
just bending over and picking up rocks like this. Save effort?"
"Ah, this...we didn't think it over well." Although he didn't change this
design, the researcher had no choice but to do it at this time.
In fact, in the previous laboratory test phase, this mining Titan initially
retained the auxiliary robotic arm to collect the ore, and then directly
loaded it into the mine bucket behind it.
However, because it is a mine bucket, not a mine cabin used on the standard
Titan, there are some differences in the structure of the two, which leads to
the fact that when the simplified machine lowers the predecessor and uses two
robotic arms to collect ore, the mine bucket The ore will slide out from
inside.
Although it is said that installing a partition can solve the problem, in
order to simplify the design, and in the actual test, the driver did not feel
any inconvenience when bending over to pick up the stone, so the relatively
complicated was removed. Robotic arm design.
However, listening to what Chen Xin said at this time, the researcher also
realized that he felt bad.
In the experimental test, they just broke a simulated rock poured out of
cement. Even after breaking it with a pneumatic pick, it only broke into a few
pieces. In terms of the output of the external skeleton, it was really easy to
pick it up, just bending down. Things.
But for workers in the mine, this means that they have to bend dozens or even
hundreds of times a day.
The equipment originally designed for workers to improve production efficiency
and reduce labor intensity, on the contrary, increases the degree of fatigue
of workers. Such a design is undoubtedly undesirable.
So after Chen Xin pointed out this point, the researcher quickly realized this
problem, so he took the initiative to carry it.
However, the purpose of carrying the pot back was not to perfuse the matter.
The researcher quickly asked Chen Xin: "Academician, do you think you should
add back to the original mechanical arm design?"
"I don't have a say on this. I have to ask the worker master." Chen Xin
pointed to the foreman standing in front of him, and said to the researcher:
"Whether it's useful or not, it can only be given by actual users like them.
The most intuitive answer is whether to change the structure of a mechanical
arm to assist in the collection of ore, or let him see what's going on."
"Okay, UU read www.uukānshu.com, I understand." The researcher nodded, did not
say anything, just looked at the passage where everyone came from behind, and
waited for the arrival of the prototype.
After waiting for a while, the prototype did not come down, but the driver
himself got down from the elevator on the side.
"Sorry academician! The prototype was too big and got stuck when it came
down." The pilot of the prototype looked helpless and frustrated. He finally
got the chance to drive the Titan, but he got stuck because of his size. This
is a shame.
When Chen Xin heard this, the expression on his face was also shocked, and
asked in amazement: "How did you get stuck? Where did you get stuck?"
"Just in the tunnel above, I came in very smoothly. I didn't encounter any
obstacles, but the tunnel below suddenly narrowed and jammed the body." The
driver said here with a grievance. .
Originally it was just a test, plus the previous passages passed smoothly, he
was sloppy, but he did not expect that because the light was too dark, he did
not notice the sudden narrowing of the tunnel in front, so he was stuck by the
tunnel wall. .
