Chapter 135: The loss of the test field is nothing

When Tian Chuan returned home, Xu Jingyi was learning English in front of the computer.

Her English learning has never stopped, and after a trip to the United States, and this period of non-stop learning, she has become more proficient in English conversation. The memorization software and a large number of film and television drama exercises have greatly enhanced her mastery of English. In addition, she is also a must-attend at the English corner of their school twice a week. At Tagawa's suggestion, she and Michelle used the instant messaging software developed by Tagawa to have a voice chat every week, and both were full of interest in this software, which avoids the hassle of international calls and holding up a phone, which is very convenient. It's just limited to the narrow communication bandwidth, and there is no way to make a video call for the time being, so you can only send some pictures, otherwise it will be better to use.

In the evening, not long after Tian Chuan returned home, Xu Jingyi's "Chat" software received a call request from Michelle, and Xu Jingyi learned that Michelle encountered a huge problem after receiving the Tai Chi practice materials sent by Tian Chuan: she couldn't understand the Chinese materials at all. And it is impossible to translate it by finding some friends who understand Chinese, and a large number of Tai Chi professional terms make her friends helpless. Later, she found two more Chinese students, but they were still unable to accurately translate these Tai Chi terms. In desperation, she had no choice but to ask Tian Chuan for help. Tian Chuan's chat account has not been online, so she found Xu Jingyi.

Xu Jingyi couldn't do anything for a while after hearing Michelle's words, she couldn't translate these things, and she still had to take action from Tian Chuan himself. She called Tian Chuan over: "Husband, Michelle said that the Chinese Taijiquan materials you sent her can't be understood, let me help her translate, where will I translate these things, or you come." ”

When Tian Chuan heard Xu Jingyi's words, he walked over and said, "There is no fixed translation of these Taijiquan special terms, and to do this, you need to name these terms, which is a big project." I can only take my time. ”

The voice call on the chat was still open, and Michelle also heard Tian Chuan's words, and said: "Master, at present, it seems that only you can do this work, you should work hard, I have pulled more than a dozen people to learn Tai Chi together, and we are all eager to see these materials." ”

Tagawa said, "Naming is a very troublesome thing, and it takes a lot of time to do it little by little. I usually have a lot of things to do, and the progress will not be too fast, so you will have to wait for a while. Also, the wording of my naming or translation may not be very reasonable, so after I have finished a part, I will send it to you first, give me some suggestions, and I will revise it before finalizing it. "This translation may seem like a small thing, but if Tai Chi becomes popular in the United States in the future, the results of these translations will have a huge impact.

"Oyeh!" heard Tagawa agree, and Michelle cheered over there.

After cutting off the video call, Tian Chuan first started to sort out the terminology used when guiding Michelle and Mike when he was in the United States, and Xu Jingyi helped record it on the side. One night busy, the first translation was completed, the title is "Tai Chi Push Hands Force Mode and Basic Practice Methods", the article is not long, only more than 5000 words, after the completion of the Chinese-English version, Xu Jingyi's "Tai Chi Boxing Special Terms Glossary" has also accumulated dozens of dozen, Tian Chuan first considered these terms, and then began to go back and proofread the "Tai Chi Push Hands Force Method and Basic Practice Method" article, I felt almost the same, let out a sigh of relief, and said: " Translating was not an easy task, and it took the two of us four hours to write such a short paragraph. ”

Xu Jingyi said: "It must be very slow at the beginning, many nouns have to be named, and they are only gnawed little by little. Later, when you get acquainted, it will be much faster. ”

Tian Chuan nodded in agreement with her statement and said, "Tired, don't you, wash and sleep early, I'll send you back to school tomorrow." ”

Xu Jingyi chuckled and said, "It's so lofty, you want to do bad things again, right?"

Tian Chuan smiled and said, "If you're tired, I'll help you wash it." He picked up Xu Jingyi and walked to the bathroom.

……

After the passion, the two lay in bed

On it, Tian Chuan asked Xu Jingyi: "What car do you like?" ”

Xu Jingyi asked curiously: "Why do you want to give me a car? I don't want it, and it has no use, it's troublesome." ”

"I've got you a pastry shop," Tagawa said, "and you'll have to take care of it after a while, and it's convenient to have a car." ”

Xu Jingyi was not interested, and said: "How much money can a dim sum shop make? ”

Tian Chuan said: "It won't be too troublesome to ask a professional manager to take care of it, and you can earn some pocket money, just enough to go to school, travel and buy clothes." The store is still in preparation, and it will take at least a little more than a month to open, so I have an appointment to interview the pastry chef tomorrow. You're studying management, and it's time to start a company, which is just an internship. ”

"Okay. Xu Jingyi said, "Then I'll do it with you from now on." ”

Xu Jingyi slept for a long time during the day, and now she is not sleepy, so she asked Tian Chuan to give her the plan of the store. Tian Chuan told her the idea of the construction and development of the pastry store, and Xu Jingyi also felt that the planning prospect was very good. The two discussed until the second half of the night, and determined that the name of the store was "Tianxin Mill", and Xu Jingyi forced Tian Chuan to draw the decoration renderings and logo of the store, and did not sleep for a while until it was almost dawn.

In the morning, Tian Chuan didn't go to exercise, and after getting up at seven o'clock, he made breakfast and the two of them were full, and then sent Xu Jingyi back to school.

Xu Jingyi was forced by his roommates to ask about it for the time being, and Tian Chuan didn't have time to rest, he wanted to go to the machinery company to see the sample of the cotton picking head that had just been made.

At the beginning, Gong Lihua divided the development of cotton pickers into several parts, of which cotton pickers were the top priority. After several months of hard work by more than a dozen designers, the first functional prototype of the cotton picker has been produced. Tagawa is going to the machinery company today to see this prototype.

The purpose of this prototype is to verify the realization of the cotton picking function, which is generally an imitation of John Deere's cotton picking head, but technically circumvents some patent restrictions.

The prototype was driven by a small tractor and could only be used for picking and delinshing, as well as a huge picking finger cleaning system. There is no supporting cotton conveying system, but a cotton bale is installed behind the decottoning tray to accommodate the picked cotton. Moreover, the supporting cotton picking finger cleaning system is also installed to cool the cotton picking finger, which is not the final design.

Tagawa looked at the prototype and praised the R&D personnel. Gong Lihua said next to her: "It is not possible to test it for the time being, and only the first batch of cotton spit in Shuanghe is now in our experimental field, and the test conditions are not yet mature, and it is estimated that it will take about two weeks to harvest." ”

Tian Chuan disagreed with Gong Lihua's point of view, he said: "The development of cotton pickers is a race against time, since there is cotton spitting, then start the test immediately." Now the functional verification is very important, which will directly affect the next step, and the whole project cannot be stopped and wait for the cotton to mature. Even if the cotton does not spit naturally, it is necessary to manually intervene by spraying the ripening agent, and it is good to be able to do it one day earlier. ”

Gong Lihua thought about it and felt that what Tian Chuan said made sense, not to mention that the test at this time did not use much cotton, and it was estimated that one or two acres of land would be enough, and this loss was really not worth mentioning compared to the development progress of the cotton picker. Therefore, the ripening work of the experimental cotton was immediately arranged, and it was estimated that the test could start in three days.

Tagawa asked about the development progress of other parts of the cotton picker. Gong Lihua said: "The combined design of the cotton collection system and the baler went most smoothly. The development of this part is basically not affected by other systems and experimental fields, the main structure design has been completed, the prototype has been manufactured, and the functional test has been carried out, and the cotton used in the test is purchased from outside, although it cannot fully simulate the actual working situation, and the difference is not big. The design is now being refined based on the results of the trial. ”

"After calculation, the power of the machine needs 450 horsepower, and we have basically decided to use a high-power diesel engine produced by Weichai as the main power source. The chassis of the cotton picker needs to be redesigned, and now it has been commissioned to Jinan Heavy Duty Truck for development, and it is expected that the design will be completed next spring, and the production of the first manual prototype will be completed. ”

"The design requirements of the control system are relatively high, and it is still in the principle design stage, which is carried out in cooperation with FAW, and at the same time, Professor Mu Lanying of the University of Aviation has also participated in the development of the control system, and the on-board computer will be responsible for the control of most details. The biggest difficulty in the design is the selection of sensors, there are about five types of necessary sensors that are not available on the market, and new development is required, and some control components are also being developed, which can slow down the progress of the system. ”

Then, she introduced the development progress of power distribution system and hydraulic system. The overall progress exceeded Tagawa's expectations, which made him more satisfied.

The small simple cotton picker requested by Tagawa has also completed the design of two models, and both are now in trial production. The two models are completely independent designs, differing from principle to shape, design efficiency and cost.

One of them is a piggyback type, which uses a battery as power and can work for about three hours on a single charge. The machine weighs about 15 kilograms, operated by the operator on his back, the cotton picking head is a toothed belt, which is manually aimed at the cotton spitting, and the cotton picking head uses a similar "licking" action to remove the cotton from the plant, and is sent into the cotton collection bag by the fan to mourn. The design efficiency can reach two to three times that of hand-picking. Its advantage is to avoid the open cotton clamping hand, and improve the efficiency, but the cotton picker needs to carry the machine for a long time to work, and needs to bear the weight of the cotton picked annually, the physical requirements of the worker are relatively high, and the labor intensity is much greater than that of manual cotton picking.

The other is a wheeled vehicle structure, which also uses an electric motor as power. The trolley is a three-wheeled side-by-side structure, the car body is narrow and high, pushed forward by manpower, and the weight of the machine and cotton is borne by the trolley, and the labor intensity of the operator has been alleviated, but because it needs to divide a part of the energy to push the cart forward, the efficiency is lower than that of the piggyback type. In this case, the cotton picking operation is to suck up the open cotton under negative pressure and transfer it to the collection box for storage. The reliability of this method has not been proven, but its superiority is obvious, the handheld part basically has only one tube, and the weight is much lighter than the previous one.
