Chapter 49 Lubricating Machinery
readx;? The holy monk Tang Sanzang stared at the power transmission belts, and countless thoughts turned in his mind, such as the icing method, the sprinkling technique, etc., which were immediately thought of, but they were all ruthlessly overturned. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ info was thinking about it, the holy monk suddenly heard Bajie's stomach very uncompetitive, grunting, the thoughts in his mind suddenly opened, the holy monk couldn't help but light up, leisurely snapped his fingers, and laughed wildly: "There is, Bajie, go to the kitchen to find a vat of butter, soak all these power belts in it, after a night, the power belt is full of oil, you can install it on the road." β
Bajie was dumbfounded when he heard this, and he scratched his head sweatily and said: "Master, you are really a loser, you don't put good butter in fried fish and stir-fry, and you use it to soak this power transmission belt for no reason, it's too wasteful, but I don't know what it can do?"
As soon as the words came out, Sanzang had already stopped thinking, cleared his throat, and explained confidently: "Bajie, it is not useless to soak the force transmission belt with oil, so as to ensure the lubrication of its surface and reduce the friction between it and the force transmission device, which can not only increase the life of the force transmission belt, but also improve the speed of the ship.
Wukong nodded in contemplation when he heard this, and said with a slight side face: "What Master said is not unreasonable, but just to ensure the smoothness of the surface of the power transmission belt, it is enough to soak them in a small way, how to soak them in a vat of butter without being too wasteful?"
Tang Sanzang shook his head and explained leisurely: "Wukong, if you think like this, you will inevitably be biased, since you have to do something, as long as the conditions allow, not only must it be done, but it must be done perfectly, perfectly." β
"Your method of soaking the force transmission belt a little, although it can play a role in lubrication for a short time, but when the few oils evaporate out, it will still return to its original appearance, and it cannot be maintained for a long time. β
"And my method of soaking overnight is very different, you first look at this grass leaf, although the surface is smooth and firm, there are many pores inside, connecting the world inside and outside. I soaked the power transmission belt for a full time, that is, through the respiration of the blades, so that the butter in the tank can enter the blades as much as possible, so that even if the power transmission belt evaporates and loses during the operation, there will still be oil replenished from the inside, so as to maintain the lubrication of the power transmission belt and achieve the purpose of making it more tough and durable. Of course, you said that it is too rough and wasteful to soak these 20 or so power belts into the whole vat of butter together, so let's go find a few basins, pour a few basins of butter in the tank, and dip the power belts into them to try the effect. β
Seeing the master's order, the brothers and sisters started together, ran up and down the ground to search, and found a total of six deep basins, several of which were bathtubs used by the Bajie people to soak their feet and relieve fatigue. However, in order to complete the task of soaking the power transmission belt, the holy monk had to endure the nausea in his stomach, frowned, covered his nose, and instructed the brothers to pour butter and soak the transmission belt.
Wen Tianshu watched his brothers dip the power transmission belt into butter, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and he asked the master with a smile: "Master, although you have lubricated the power transmission belt, after all, the force transmission device at the bottom is still rough and simple, can you also add some butter to them, it can naturally increase the running speed." β
Sanzang shook his head when he heard this, and explained slowly: "Tianshu, although your idea is good, you really ignore the reason for the weather. That's right, butter can indeed play a role in lubrication, but after all, the force transmission device is a relatively large system, the links involved are extremely complex, if butter is added to the joints everywhere, it will volatilize in an instant, and it will not play any role, if it is added more, it will inevitably cause unnecessary trouble, after all, the force transmission device is made of wood, and the butter is extremely flammable, a combination of two compartments, dry firewood and butter, and then in such a hot and dry weather, friction between the wood, nine out of nine will cause fire, it is extremely dangerous, do not make it, this is absolutely unacceptableγ β
Seeing that the master said eloquently, Wen Tianshu was not convinced, lowered his head, and muttered very quietly: "Master is really alarmist, it is safe for you to soak butter in the turf, and it makes no sense for me to add some butter to the wooden structure to cause a fire." β
Sanzang widened his eyes when he heard this, and explained seriously: "Xiao Nizi, don't believe it, although my power transmission belt is soaked in butter, after all, it is only in contact with the force transmission device on the surface, and due to the reduction of the friction coefficient, it rarely heats up. And your power transmission device is basically a wooden structure, not to mention the rough surface, the scope involved is very large, friction between each other, it is bound to produce a lot of heat, just wood I am worried that it will cause a fire, not to mention the addition of butter, so that the ignition point is greatly reduced. After all, you may have heard of fires in the forest, but you have rarely heard of large-scale spontaneous combustion in the grasslands. β
After all, Tianshu is a smart ice and snow, listening to Master's meticulous analysis, he pondered for a while, and felt that it made a lot of sense, nodded and sighed, shrugged his shoulders and said: "What Master said is extremely true, then according to what you can see, what kind of method should be used to reduce the friction coefficient inside the force transmission device and prevent the occurrence of fire." As Master said, the weather here is extremely dry and hot, and it is very easy to cause spontaneous combustion, if we unfortunately burn down the force transmission device, we must not delay a lot of time to build another one, and the gains outweigh the losses. β
Sanzang felt very reasonable when he heard this, thought about it for a while, and said confidently: "Tianshu, don't forget, water can also play a lubricating role, and it is a fire extinguishing thing, after joining, not only will it not reduce the ignition point, but also inhibit the occurrence of spontaneous combustion, killing two birds with one stone." β
"However, although water can act as a lubricator, after all, the force is not very great, and it can hardly be said to be the same as butter. But I really want to thank our great benefactor Li Shan's mother, among the dozen or so bottles of medicine she lost to Wukong, there is a yellow sheep fat jade bottle inside, containing a kind of medicinal herb, which is used to cleanse and remove dirt during bathing, delicate and smooth, and the degree of moisturization is definitely better than butter. β
Tianshu listened with fascination, sighed, and said with a sincere convincing: "Master's clever plan is amazing, and it can really solve the problem of spontaneous combustion inside the force transmission device, but the weather is dry, and the water is very easy to evaporate, if you only add it once, after the water evaporates, it will no longer play the role of lubrication, how can this be good?"
Tang Sanzang nodded slightly, groaned slightly, and snapped his fingers leisurely: "It's okay, it's okay, we just need to make a few sealed bags with grass blades, fill them with a solution mixed with that drug, and then pierce a small hole at the bottom of the grass bag, and hang it on the key parts that need to be lubricated, just like hanging a drip, and add the solution from it drop by drop." I think you are skilled in your craft, and the grass leaves are extremely abundant, and it is very easy to make a few straw bags. β
Bajie laughed when he heard it, half attentive and half ridiculous: "This master has no work in his hands, but the idea is novel and strange, and it seems that he can solve a problem, but fortunately, we are all good at the family, and we are idle, so I have the right to do a few things and give it a try." β
This made everyone laugh, and they took action one after another, mowing the grass, installing the power transmission belt, and preparing the solution of the preparation solution.
It should be the early morning of the next day, and the three of Bajie stepped on the pedal with relaxed expressions, driving the ship to travel on the vast prairie. Bajie was even more envious, and sighed: "Ya, the master is really a ghost, after his improvement, the pedal is really much easier, and even the noise of the force transmission device under it has been reduced a lot, and the progress of our rush has been greatly improved." β
Ao Bai smiled when he heard this, nodded frequently, and couldn't help but joke: "Yes, yes, presumably, with this device, Master can also get the top three in the school sports meeting if he participates in that school sports meeting, right?"
Sanzang's face was flushed, his willow eyebrows were upside down, and he scolded without a word: "This kid came to tease me again, after yesterday's torture, it made me realize the gap between us, and I was too tired to do it, and if I wanted to get into the trap, it was more difficult than climbing to the sky." β
As soon as the words came out, everyone laughed and shook their heads, thinking that the master was really sincere, with a low eye, and a rudder when he saw the wind, and it was his consistent style.
In the midst of such laughter, the ship slowly moved forward, and it had only been enough for three or five days, when suddenly Wukong was heard shouting loudly outside to stop. The road was extraordinarily smooth, with few obstacles, and everyone couldn't help but be a little ignorant, and they got out of the hatch one after another, only to see the sun hanging high in the air, spreading a scorching and dazzling light, and the air around them was extremely dry and stuffy, and the heat wave was rolling indiscriminately, as if to squeeze every drop of water out of people.
After only a few seconds of leaving the hatch, everyone was so hot that they were sweating profusely, breathing heavily, their chests were tight and dizzy, and they almost fainted to the ground. Bajie couldn't help but fan his sleeve robe, squinted his eyes, and said very unpleasantly: "This stinky monkey, we stepped on the pedal well, and asked us to come out for no reason. β
Wukong didn't get angry when he heard this, he just laughed hesitantly: "This pig's head doesn't come to complain, although it's hot outside, have you ever felt better inside?"
Bajie shook his head when he heard this, and hummed: "It's not comfortable, it's like entering a steamer, it's so hot, and a few of us are also stripped naked and pedaling, but it's too hot, and there is no sweat on our bodies." Master was lying on the back seat and was fine, he didn't sweat much, but he was too hot and couldn't fall asleep tossing and turning. Only Tianshu was wearing a brocade robe, although he was exposed to the sunlight at the gap, he didn't feel hot, and he could manipulate the compass skillfully and freely, which was really envious of others. β
"Even so, it is better than going outside and being exposed to the sun, which makes people dizzy and very uncomfortable. β
