Chapter Eighty-Nine: Gratifying Progress
In the end, the enthusiasm for research defeated reason, and Li Tai still did it.
However, he was very careful throughout the process, and every time he did it after thorough research.
After the first part was disassembled, it was repeatedly disassembled and assembled several times, and the next step was carried out only after the method of disassembly and assembly was thoroughly mastered.
Not only that, but he also arranged for someone to record each step with drawings to make sure that it was correct.
Even after the parts were removed, they immediately arranged for someone to come out!
It's not too standard, but it's not too bad.
They tossed until dark, and they didn't toss a few parts......
After all, the construction of the bike is a bit complicated for them, and many of the parts don't know how to start at first.
Most of the time was spent researching how to safely disassemble it.
In the next few days, Li Tai and they completely this bike!
Those obvious screws or something are okay, and you can understand what's going on by looking at them roughly.
However, the construction of some of these parts is a bit out of the ordinary for them, and they are often overwhelmed.
During this period, Li Tai didn't think about asking Cao Ze for help, but he felt that asking for help at every turn would make him seem useless......
After all, it's a hot-blooded age, and who hasn't had the heart to be competitive.
Li Tai felt that he had to make an example and let the teacher know that he was qualified to peek into the mysteries of science!
In addition, Li Tai felt that Cao Ze must be very busy in his usual life, maybe he would study some advanced immortal spells at home!
As a last resort, you can't easily disturb the teacher!
As time went on, the copy called the bicycle was also tackled by them little by little.
Then it was smoothly stuck......
It's okay to talk about other parts.
Brakes, balls, chains......
With Datang's current technology, these things really can't be handled......
According to the previous idea of enlarging if you don't do it finely, it's not that the cottage can't come out, but the problem is that it won't be ordinary when the time comes, where to find someone with such long legs to ride?
In fact, the principle of a bicycle is much simpler than a watch, and what Li Tai wants is not a simple copy, but to be able to run!
It's a pity that in the end, I can only bow to reality......
After reassembling it back, Li Tai sighed silently.
With Datang's current technology, it is no fun to get a bicycle that can pedal.
But fortunately, it is not for nothing.
When he rode before, Li Tai felt that it was unexpectedly stable, and the bumpy feeling was very small.
In the process of dismantling, the answer was finally found.
In addition to the irreproducible material of the tire, the rest is the spring damping system!
Fortunately, I have studied the springs before, and it is not difficult to figure out what is going on.
Looking at the spring in front of him, Li Tai began to ponder again.
Since springs still have this purpose, can they be used for something?
Like what......
Carriage?
Datang is now basically a dirt road, and traveling by horse-drawn carriage is definitely not a wonderful experience.
Especially when you encounter potholes, it is simply a sin!
While you can put some soft stuff in the carriage to slow down the bumpy feeling, who can refuse to make yourself more comfortable?
Anyway, Li Tai can't!
Just do it!
Li Tai immediately ordered someone to get a carriage and told the others about his intentions.
Others also thought that Li Tai's idea was very good, but they only found it a little difficult when it was actually operated.
The principle of spring damping is not complicated, and it seems that it is not difficult to come up with a solution.
It's just that with Datang's technology and steel performance, it is obviously impractical to make the spring so small.
And the carriage can't be as big as a trebuchet......
In the end, it was the talented Li Tai who combined the inspiration of the previous clockwork and successfully straightened out the spring.
Considering the service life and safety, Li Tai deliberately adopted the method of assembling pieces.
After another day or two of improvements, Datang's first carriage with shock absorption came out!
After finishing the incident, Li Tai took Duan Lun to experience it, and in order to increase the effect, he deliberately made some stones and wooden sticks and other objects on the ground.
The results were naturally very encouraging.
The bumpy feeling has been significantly reduced, which is called a comfort!
Excited, Li Tai was ready to tell Cao Ze the good news.
At this moment, he is like a primary school student who has scored high in the exam, and he can't help but feel like letting the adults in the family know.
This is also the first answer sheet he handed in after Li Tai's apprenticeship.
Although Pepsi was successful before, Li Tai was always very apprehensive.
He had always feared that he was not gifted enough to inherit the great science of science.
Now it seems that he has a little qualification.
Just as Li Tai was about to leave, someone from the workshop next door came.
"Your Highness, the watch has been made!" The craftsman said straight to the point.
It turned out that after Li Tai saw that these people were completely proficient in the watchmaking process, he didn't continue to stare at the progress over there.
Anyway, the rest are small changes, and it makes no difference whether you stare at it or not.
And during the time they tossed the bicycles, the people and horses over there were also busy.
"Done?!" Li Tai said happily: "Take this king to have a look!" ”
Soon, the group came to the workshop next door.
There was an oversized watch lying on the floor, several times larger than a grinding disc!
Good fellow, that hand is thicker than a finger!
At this time, the giant watch was ticking and walking, and there was a circle of craftsmen standing around.
"How's it going?" Li Tai stepped forward and asked.
"Back to Your Highness." The craftsman in charge of this matter hurriedly replied: "Actually, it was done the day before yesterday, and I specially observed it for a day yesterday. It's all working normally at the moment. ”
The ones they tossed out before were scrapped at every turn, and the best one could only last for half a day.
"What about accuracy?" Li Tai circled around the giant watch and continued to ask.
"There's really nothing you can do about accuracy...... the craftsman said with an embarrassed face.
There is no big problem, but the time is not accurate enough.
And this so-called inaccurate, that is really not accurate at all.
If you use this watch, it could be 20 hours a day, or it could be 30 hours......
And that's just the result of a few observations over the day.
Over time, the devil knows what will become of it......
The reason for this result, in addition to the fact that the mainspring is not up to standard, is also a construction problem.
Although they dismantled many watches together, none of them were completely disassembled.
There were many parts of the watch hidden in the middle of the chassis compartment, and the tools at hand could not completely open the chassis to see the inner workings.
I can't see the structure, so I can only guess......
Now this giant watch can be turned up thanks to their rich imagination.
Although it looks like a magnified watch on the outside, the inside is actually completely different from Cao Ze's watch.
In such a short period of time, they even guessed that they could make this huge watch turn, and I have to say that it is really not an ordinary talent!
