Chapter 220: The Carding Machine
With the support of Xungui, it became a logical thing for Zhou Yuji to serve as a guerrilla general of the new firearms army, and the base area of Shuntianfu made up for the last shortcoming.
In the No. 2 experimental courtyard, there was good news at the same time, the second disciple Song Shiyi researched the carding machine.
Experimental courtyard No. 2 is a textile factory, and when you walk into the arch, you will see a tall factory building overhead.
There were very few machines in the steam plant, a steam engine, and a newly invented carding machine.
There is also a workshop in the corner of the factory, where several craftsmen from the Beiping Machinery Bureau are hammering and beating, making the most basic iron products such as iron bars, iron rods, and iron sheets, and then constructing them into new machinery.
Zhu Shun walked into the No. 2 experimental courtyard, and it was raining heavily outside, and the rainwater poured on the top of the factory, making a 'crackling' sound.
Fortunately, this is the No. 2 experimental courtyard, not the No. 4 experimental courtyard in the open air, so you don't have to worry about the rain.
For a bunch of people next to the carding machine, Song Shiyi, who has become a showman, with more than 30 geniuses in mathematics, physics and chemistry, is conducting the final test of the carding machine.
Seeing that the mountain chief was coming, more than 30 genius students of mathematics, physics and chemistry bowed together, and Song Shiyi was a lot more serious since he followed many genius students.
Song Shiyi was also like the fourth disciple Zhao Doumi, solemnly bowed: "Teacher." ”
The 100-person plan of the Jingshi University Hall was completed a few months ago.
There are the most talented students behind the second disciple Song Shiyi and the fourth disciple Zhao Doumi, and the least is not the eldest disciple Song Shihui, but the fifth disciple Bo Jue.
With his life, where did the genius students dare to follow him, and it was almost the same as a female student.
Zhu Shun walked to the side and saw a black iron machine with an overall square shape, on which iron parts such as iron rollers, racks, and blades were installed.
Song Shiyi took the initiative to introduce.
The carding machine is divided into three major structures, pre-carding structure, main carding structure, and strip structure.
The pre-combing structure is composed of a cotton roller, a cotton feeding board, a dust removal knife and a small leakage bottom.
The main comb structure is composed of a rack, a cover plate, a small roller and a large leakage bottom.
The strip structure is composed of a stripping roller, a bell mouth, and a ring bar.
These iron parts are basically some simple parts such as iron rollers, knives, and racks, which are not too difficult to cast, and are much simpler than steam engines.
The main thing is to construct a structure that makes simple parts fit together to form a complex carding system.
After Song Shiyi introduced the structure of the carding machine, he asked a genius student to burn the boiler, and rushed into the sky with the smoke billowing from the boiler room.
The steam engine spits white steam and begins to reciprocate, driving the gears, which drive the carding machine to start moving.
Song Shiyi picked up a pile of cotton from the wheelbarrow next to him, put it on the cotton roller, and kept conveying the cotton containing impurities.
The cotton containing impurities is pre-combed with a dust removal knife and a small leaky bottom with a mesh, and after rough treatment, it enters the main comb structure.
In the main comb structure, the most difficult to clean down lint and debris are removed, and the slivers are placed in the sliver tube one by one through the loop device.
The one-man tall wooden sliver tube quickly piled up layers of tampon.
Zhu Shun calculated the time, and when the time of one minute was up, he immediately moved the wooden light cotton sliver tube, and stopped the operation of the carding machine at the same time.
Song Shiyi had already prepared a tape measure, and asked a genius student to pull out the tampon inside and start measuring the length.
Forty-one meters!
In one minute, not only the cotton was cleaned, but also 41 meters of cotton strips were combed.
"Teacher, it's a success!"
Song Shiyi took a report and ran to Zhu Shun's side excitedly and shouted.
The more than 30 genius students couldn't help but cheer.
Some people even left tears, and this person was the first batch of students to enter the hall of Jingshi University.
In the past two years, in order to invent the carding machine, I don't know how much hardship I have suffered, how much effort has been spent, and I have even completely forgotten the concept of time.
Eat when you are hungry, sleep when you are sleepy, often eat only one meal for two days for the design drawings, and it has become the norm not to sleep for two or three days.
Now it has finally succeeded, and the hard work of the past two years has not been in vain.
The first few students to enter the hall of Beijing Normal University all shed tears.
Zhu Shun saw the numbers on the report, stretched out his hand to stroke the cold iron frame of the card, and couldn't help laughing.
Textile systems.
Initial industrialization!
