Scholars in the courtyard

Chapter 782 Seat Belts

Rolling mills, fleet stations.

Taking advantage of the time to refuel the car, Yang Xiaotao took out a box of Qunying and chatted with several drivers who were waiting to get out of the car.

In fact, it is bragging and spanking.

These drivers have traveled all over the world, and if they say they know a lot, they may not know much, but they must have seen a lot.

Everyone chatted in different directions, and finally talked about the truck.

It is said that the cars in Shanghai are easy to control, but there are too few loads, and the front of the car is bigger than the body of the car.

The one who said that the Liberation car is very good, but the oil used is gasoline, which is not easy to add, and it is consumed very quickly.

Speaking of this, Yang Xiaotao is also clear about his new car.

The Shanghai-made 58-type jeep uses a gasoline engine. The car can carry six passengers. It can be said that the space is not small, but the fuel consumption is really high.

Especially in this era, when domestic engine technology is backward, the utilization rate of gasoline is not high, and it is easy to waste.

This is also the reason why the rolling mills go out to pick up people, and they don't want to use jeeps when they use carts.

Listening to the number of people complaining about the problems of each car, most of them are boring. It runs fine on flat roads, but it can't run on potholes.

Just as he was talking, Liu Jun came over to fill up the gas in the car, "Director Xiao Yang, the jeep has already filled up the gas for you."

"Thank you, Team Liu!"

Yang Xiaotao said gratefully, and then thought of the seat belt that he thought of when he vacated at the field today, and then asked, "Captain Liu, I've heard something."

Liu Jun and several drivers listened.

"Will we usually tie a rope to the car so that we can protect ourselves if something happens?"

Yang Xiaotao wasn't sure if there were seat belts now, and he didn't know if there were any abroad, so he could only ask.

Liu Jun and the drivers looked at each other, then shook their heads together.

"Xiao Yang, what is the rope you are talking about?"

"Yeah, who has nothing to tie a rope."

"What kind of rope?"

Several people were chattering, but Yang Xiaotao saw that he couldn't explain clearly, so he asked someone to take a rope and made it into the cab by himself, "That's it, from here to here, fix it up and down, and fix it here with a bayonet. "

"That way if you get into a car accident, especially if you hit something, you won't be thrown."

Yang Xiaotao gesticulated and even demonstrated in person, but Liu Jun and the driver didn't find it useful when they met, and each of them showed suspicious expressions.

In the end, it was Liu Jun who said, "We usually drive, but we can stop with the brakes when something happens."

Yang Xiaotao opened his mouth, he said so much about his feelings, they just didn't take it seriously.

Then Yang Xiaotao thought of something.

Cars these days don’t run fast. Even that second-hand jeep can run at the fastest speed of seventy to eighty kilometers per hour. This is a theoretical value. How much it can really run depends on the road conditions and the performance of the car itself. .

The jeep is still like this, and the trucks under it are similar. The speed of eighty to ninety kilometers per hour in later generations is not common here.

The speed of the car is slow, and there are few cars, so there are not many traffic accidents.

Moreover, what the convoy encounters the most is drilling ditch or dumping. At this time, the driver is trapped in the car, which is not conducive to rescue, so everyone doesn't care about Yang Xiaotao's words.

When Yang Xiaotao saw the appearance of the crowd, he knew that it was useless to wear seat belts with them.

But Yang Xiaotao didn't think seat belts were useless. They thought they were useless because they had never seen them.

Based on the experience and lessons of later generations, and based on the principle of life safety, Yang Xiaotao felt that it was necessary to get seat belts out as soon as possible, and put them on his car first.

When the time comes, let them see it and understand the benefits of this thing.

That's a life-saving thing.

After emphasizing the benefits of seat belts again with Liu Jun and the others, Yang Xiaotao drove away. He was going to the tenth workshop to get a seat belt.

Watching Yang Xiaotao leave, Liu Jun and others looked at each other in blank dismay.

If it was someone else who told them these things, they would have dismissed them, turned around and left.

But it was Yang Xiaotao who was talking to them, so this matter is worth pondering.

That was Yang Xiaotao, the youngest engineer in the rolling mill, the youngest in the factory, and he was more capable than all of them combined.

Could what he said be a trivial matter?
"Captain, I think Director Yang is right."

Xiao Ma said timidly, the last time I drove a long distance, I encountered troubles several times, although it has passed, but I still feel scared when I think about it.

"You sycophant, what makes sense, how can you make sense?"

Immediately, someone beside him pressed Xiao Ma's head, "Xiao Ma, I didn't expect you to be such a person."

"No, I think it makes sense."

Xiao Ma raised his neck and tried to defend himself. In his heart, he admired Yang Xiaotao.

"Okay, don't make trouble."

Liu Jun stopped the playfulness of several people, and finally frowned twice, "Since Director Yang said it, let's try it. It's not a big deal anyway."

"Fengzi, go find some belts and see if they can be tied to the car."

"Ah, captain, I really want it. It's so inconvenient to get on and off the bus."

Fengzi complained that she didn't want to move.

Liu Jun raised his foot and touched his butt, "Hurry up."

"Hey, let's go~~"

On the other side, Yang Xiaotao drove the jeep rumbling all the way to the office building, got off the car and walked quickly to the office.

Along the way, many people knew that Director Xiao Yang had a special car, and they showed envious expressions.

Especially Wang Guodong, when he saw Yang Xiaotao, he slapped him with a hammer, but he was also aware of his situation, and it was a fluke to be able to sit in the position of deputy factory director. .

However, not now does not mean that there will be no future.

After two years, when the position is secured, the car will naturally be matched.

Yang Xiaotao talked with Wang Guodong for a while, then walked to the office.

Pushing open the door, Lou Xiaoe looked at Yang Xiaotao who was in a hurry and didn't know what was going on, and was about to ask what was going on, when she saw Yang Xiaotao sitting on the seat, taking out a pen and paper from the drawer, and drawing on it.

After a while, I put the drawn paper aside and continued to draw new ones.

Yang Xiaotao's seat belts are the same as those of later generations. Since he wants to do it, he can do it in one step, saving no trouble.

Although Yang Xiaotao has never made seat belts for later generations of cars, he knows the principle.

In the past, it would have been really difficult for him to make this thing based on principles with his ability, but after a series of systematic instillation of knowledge, his hands-on skill has a foundation of an eighth-level fitter, and a design ability engineer can also make up for it.

First draw the frame of the retractor, then the coil spring and rotating shaft, and then the rope, so that the basic three-point safety belt can be formed.

Then there is the central part and internal gear, and the most important part, the pinch wheel.

If the seat belt is pulled quickly, due to the rapid rotation of the seat belt roller, the clamping wheel inside will deviate from the belt and be clamped by the internal gear, so that the rotating shaft will stop rotating to achieve the purpose of locking the seat belt.

Soon, each part of Yang Xiaotao's notebook gradually took shape, Yang Xiaotao put them out one by one, and then modified the data on it.

As time passed, Lou Xiao'e held her breath aside, holding a thermos bottle in her hand, staring straight at her eyes.

"This is here, so the coefficient should be smaller."

In Yang Xiaotao's mind, he didn't hear the sound of the system improving, which means that the design of the seat belt has not yet reached the success standard.

Check again and find that the inner diameter of the internal gear is a bit large, which is not conducive to the locking of the pinch wheel, so it should be changed to a smaller size.

When the coefficients were changed, a reminder finally appeared in his mind.

"Ding, congratulations to the host, the seat belt has been successfully designed, and the evaluation level is good—down!"

"Ding, congratulations to the host, you have obtained 500 credits."

When the voice sounded, Yang Xiaotao understood that he passed the test and could use it.

Moreover, it has reached a good level, indicating that the design is more reasonable.

"Director, what are you doing?"

"What is this long thing? Also, is this a spring?"

Lou Xiaoe got Yang Xiaotao a glass of water, and then looked at the drawings in a daze.

"This is a seat belt, which can protect people's safety when installed in the car."

Yang Xiaotao said with a smile, Lou Xiao'e was even more confused, just such a thing, can protect people?
"I won't tell you anymore, I'm going to the workshop."

Yang Xiaotao looked at the time, it was four o'clock in the afternoon, there was still time, and it happened to be done.

Watching Yang Xiaotao leave, Lou Xiaoe frowned holding the thermos bottle, but she still didn't understand.

But there was one thing she was sure of, and that was that Yang Xiaotao was going to do something again.

In Workshop No. [-], Yang Xiaotao kept the car in good condition. Huang Degong ran out when he heard the noise, and looked at the jeep in amazement.

"Old Huang, how are you, come up and take you for a walk?"

Yang Xiaotao met with Lao Huang with a smile. Now Yang Xiaotao has given up the work of the tenth workshop to him, and Huang Degong is worthy of being a veteran director.

"Forget it, I can't afford to sit in this car."

Huang Degong was envious, but shook his head, "The oil burned in a car is enough for me to buy a piece of meat."

"Haha, you old Huang, you don't want your oil."

Yang Xiaotao smiled. When he came to the workshop just now, Yang Xiaotao had already thought about it. In the future, if there is gasoline or diesel in the exchange column, he must save more for backup.

And based on his understanding of the system, now that he has a car, maybe there will be gasoline in the exchange bar next time he refreshes.

This is also to encourage consumption.

The two walked to the workshop, and first looked at the scene. Huang Degong pointed to the busy workers, "Now the orders for pressure cookers have not decreased, and they are also the busiest in the workshop."

"Other heating furnaces and well drilling machines are normal, and there are orders, but not as many as before."

Yang Xiaotao nodded. Originally, this heater was intended to be sold to the branch factory below, but the time has not yet come, and we will wait until the new year.

"The quality of the pressure cooker has to be controlled well, and the quality cannot be ignored because of the rush."

Yang Xiaotao raised some quality issues again, and Huang Degong understood this point, after all, a pot once exploded in this workshop.

Walking to the fitter's parking space, Yang Xiaotao took out the notebook, "Old Huang, find me a wider rope."

Huang Degong didn't ask what he was doing, and turned around to look for it. When he came back after a while, he found Yang Xiaotao walking to a fitter's table and looking at a component.

"What's the matter, are your hands itchy?"

Huang Degong handed Yang Xiaotao a two-meter-long rope, saying it was a bit wider, but the rope was so wide that Yang Xiaotao could only make do with it.

Then he saw Yang Xiaotao's drawings on the side. He frowned and looked at them for a while, but he still didn't understand.

"Make a gadget and use it yourself."

As Yang Xiaotao said, he picked up the vise and prepared to start working. He didn't ask anyone for help. Such a little thing doesn't have much technical content, and it's easy to handle.

Huang Degong is fine, just watching from the sidelines.

Half an hour later, several parts were made by Yang Xiaotao. The only thing missing was the spring, which was already available in the rolling mill. Huang Degong noticed some signs after looking at the spring parts, and went to the workshop next door to get them. A similar one, Yang Xiaotao can also use it after looking at it.

Then it started to install in front of Huang Degong.

A helical spring is fixed to one section of the rotating shaft, and the rope is held in place, and as the spring coils, the rope is wound into the retractor.

As Yang Xiaotao installed the parts one by one, it was time to get off work, and many people came around to watch.
