Chapter 12 - exoskeleton seat (2)
Elder Liu was stunned. He knew what a seat was. What was exoskeleton?
At the end of the day, Old Liu was only a level 9 worker. He was definitely the best at it, but when it came to technical jargon, Old Liu was definitely not a match for any university student. At least he couldn"t understand it right away."Do you have a blueprint?" Elder Liu frowned and asked.
"Yes!" Guo Tai Lai quickly put down his work piece, took out his rucksack from the distance, took out a roll of blueprints, and handed it to Old Liu with both hands.Guo Tai had already finished drawing when school was about to begin. It didn"t matter if Old Liu didn"t understand. He could slowly study the diagram and ponder over it, and that was exactly what he was doing now.
"Your size isn"t right!" After flipping through a few diagrams, Elder Liu found the corresponding drawings from the outline of the workpiece, looked at the diagrams, and then looked at the rough embryos Guo Tailai was working on. He couldn"t help but ask with a frown.
The crude egg had to be processed in quant.i.ty, but what Guo Tailai was doing didn"t only leave a bit of it, the size was obviously wrong. This was what Elder Liu was puzzled about. An expert like Fatty shouldn"t have made such a mistake!
Not following the blueprint was taboo for the workers, so Elder Liu could not help but feel angry.
"The blueprints are for ordinary people." Seeing that Elder Liu"s eyes were wide open, Guo Tailai didn"t mind and answered confidently, "This is for me."
Elder Liu looked at Guo Tailai, who was a few hundred pounds heavier than everyone else, and the one meter nine who was a head taller than everyone else. He pouted and wanted to say something, but nothing came out of his mouth. The size of the fatty was clearly different from that of an ordinary person"s.
"You can make it yourself. Why would you want to draw an ordinary scale?" Elder Liu was very unhappy. Seeing Guo Tai was too busy to help, he just asked a question."Application for patent, graduation design, they all need a standard size diagram! If you want to produce it, you have to do it with different sizes. I just can"t be bothered to draw more. " Guo Tailai answered without any hesitation. Elder Liu, this Workroom thing is really useful, if only there was a t.i.tanium alloy, too bad there isn"t one.
This time, Elder Liu was completely speechless. He could only wait for Fatty to finish a.s.sembling the items before he a.s.sembled them and looked at the results. No wonder he was able to pa.s.s the Waterwood University exam. It"s just that his brain was pretty good, and that was that his performance in his first year of university was not very good, he could be a typical failure in school.
Although Guo Tailai was a bit quick, Elder Liu didn"t feel that it was incomprehensible. In Old Liu"s long career, he had seen countless geniuses with extraordinary abilities in one area.Fatty Guo was born with a steady hand, this was not surprising. Elder Liu had seen a more stable hand before. It was no surprise that Fatty Guo did not even need to use a ruler to do his work. Old Liu himself could tell that there was a slight difference in skill between the two. It could only be said that Fatty Guo was talented in this area.
Unfortunately, no matter how bad Fatty Guo"s learning was, he was still a failure. He was unlikely to become a hands-on craftsman that specialized in polishing artifacts.
"Fatty, how long have you been practicing this pair of pliers?" While chatting, Elder Liu asked about Guo Tailai"s practice time."Not long." Guo Tailai answered honestly, "They helped my dad do some work during the summer vacation."
From Guo Tailai"s eyes, Elder Liu could tell that Fatty Guo was telling the truth. He was speechless. Many first-rate workers had toiled for more than half their lives, yet they were still unable to reach the level of a level 6 locksmith. However, just by playing around, Fatty was able to obtain an ability that was incomparably admirable.
While they chatted, Mr. Liu pointed out to Guo Tailai. Soon, he finished the parts that Guo Tailai had designed. The hydraulic pistons and cylinders had been completed, leaving only the a.s.sembly.Elder Liu was still confused when he saw Guo Tailai combine these parts with a few pieces of canvas and start filling the hydraulic cylinder with oil to seal it.
This thing looks like it can be worn, but what does it have to do with chairs? Why is it called exoskeleton?
Guo Tailai didn"t bother to explain anymore. After sealing it with oil, he started to wear it. Not long after, he used the canvas straps and buckles to fasten all the items onto his body.This exoskeleton seat was the inspiration that Guo Tailai had in his dream.
The exoskeleton is designed to support the back of the leg with a t.i.tanium frame device and to coil around the torso by means of a support belt. The wearer can walk on their feet as usual, and when they want to sit down, press the b.u.t.ton to unlock the frame and adjust it to a comfortable angle. The weight of the body is transmitted through the frame to the ground or to the heel of the foot.
It is said that sitting on this chair is like sitting in a bar stool so that workers can sit and work at any time to avoid the soreness of the waist and back. Chairless Chair, invented by Switzerland Noonee.)
The exoskeleton seat was only one of the simplest options. The reason why Guo Tailai chose this was because he had already chosen his graduation design direction, which was related to hydraulic pressure. He had already thought about the t.i.tle of the thesis, "On the practical application of hydraulic components in wearable chairs".
Sitting down to support the weight is two hydraulic piston, as long as the hydraulic valve, the position will be fixed. Of course, sitting posture is adjustable, depending on personal habits and the use of the environment.
Watching Guo Tailai walk around in his exoskeleton seat suit, testing his flexibility and finding a random place to sit, Elder Liu"s eyes popped out.
"How did you come up with this idea?" Elder Liu was still unable to tell what it was used for at this point? He was a locksmith. When he was young, he often had to work hard every single day. How great would it be if he could have such a thing to sit on anytime and anywhere?"Because I have an urgent need for this!" Guo Tailai answered without hesitation.
"How can you be so d.a.m.n impatient …" Before he could say the word "demand," he saw Guo Tailai"s mountain-like body again.
This weight, even if he didn"t do anything, he would still be tired from standing, right? It was indeed urgent!
"What a pity!" Guo Tailai let out a long sigh.
"What"s a pity?" Elder Liu asked in a very cooperative manner."It"s a pity that it"s made of steel. It"s a bit heavy." Guo Tailai shook his head and sighed. "I"m just poor. If I had to buy some t.i.tanium alloy, it would be light and st.u.r.dy."
"Speaking of poverty." Elder Liu suddenly smiled mysteriously: "Yesterday"s living Wan Manager left a little reward, do you want it?"
"Yes!" Guo Tailai answered decisively, "It"s only right and right to work for the money. Why not?" "How much?"
"Fifty thousand!" Elder Liu replied calmly."How much?" Fatty suddenly felt as if a golden pie had fallen from the sky and landed directly on his head.
