Transcript of ThThe smoke-o-system
- 1. THE SMOKE-O-SYSTEM JEFF S, ALI J, RAIYAN F, JARED U
- 2. REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL We were given a list of requirements
and criteria for the mechosystem Purpose was to develop a system
that accurately displays mechanical engineering to all audiences
Educate all members of the audience Leave a positive impression on
the public Encourage interaction with audience Utilize a 2.5
diameter ball at a specified speed
- 3. DESCRIPTION After the engine dissection, we decided to use
engine parts in our mechosystem, to educate the public about
machines they interact with every day, but perhaps take for
granted.
- 4. SYSTEM COMPONENTS Smoke Machine Activated by the ball Turns
off after a minute of inactivity Has a drain valve for un- used
fluid DRAIN FLOW MAIN FLOW
- 5. SYSTEM COMPONENTS Crankshaft 1. Pistons 2. Connecting rod 3.
Gear Connecting to camshaft 1 3 2
- 6. SYSTEM COMPONENTS Camshaft 4. Gear connecting to crankshaft
5. Cam lobes 6. Push rods 7. Piston Chamber 4 6 57
- 7. SYSTEM COMPONENTS TOP VIEW FRONT VIEW PISTON CHAMBER INTAKE
VALVE EXHAUST VALVE PUSH ROD
- 8. SAMPLE ANIMATION
- 9. SUMMARY The mechosystem exemplifies real life applications
Familiarity of engines helps relate to audience Interactive
experience creates interest in system
