Chapter 491: Stuck Titan

The foreman is indeed better at using pneumatic picks than the previous pilots. After understanding how to operate the mining Titans, he quickly used the pneumatic picks equipped on the mining Titans to continue on the rock wall in front of them. Interrupted work, and soon broke a piece of rock wall into rubble.
It was just that when the foreman planned to clean out the mined ore as usual, he found that the equipment on his body restricted his movements and froze there for a while.
"You can pick up the ore and put it in the back mine bucket." The researcher thought he didn't know where to put the ore, so he reminded him.
But Chen Xin slapped him and said, "He can't bend down and can't pick up the ore from the ground."
After being reminded by Chen Xin, the researcher immediately reacted and hurriedly came to the foreman's side. After taking a look at the equipment on his body, he hurriedly said: "He is wearing ordinary protective clothing, and the life support equipment on his back is simplified. The structure of the machine withstood, so he couldn't bend down. In the original design, he could squat down and pick up ore."
Regarding this explanation, Chen Xin nodded his head with understanding. This is not a weird thing. After all, it is a Titan. Even if it is a simplified version of the beggar, it is very simple to carry a set of life support equipment on it.
However, such a design is not practical in Chen Xin's view, because the protective clothing itself has life-support equipment, and it would be redundant to redesign a new protective clothing to drive the Titan.
As for how this is now designed like this... Titan drivers are not wearing protective suits, but Titan driving suits. The life support equipment on their bodies is different from the structure of ordinary protective suits.
This kind of problem is actually quite common in design, because when researchers first design something, they first consider achieving the core goal and solving problems, and then improving on the basis of achieving the core goal, adding Other design goals.
Before finalization, everything can still be modified, and this is the purpose of the test.
Find out the shortcomings or unreasonable areas and make corrections.
But watching the foreman unlock the fixed connection on his body with the help of the researcher and the Titan pilot, and get off the mining Titan, Chen Xin frowned and went to the simplified version of the Titan, and motioned for several people to let go. After picking up a larger piece of ore on the ground and putting it in the mine bucket, he asked the foreman: "How many times do you repeat this kind of work a day?"
"We haven't counted this. It always happens dozens of times a day. This is related to the hardness of the rock wall and the efficiency of our work." The foreman looked a little cautious when facing Chen Xin.
Chen Xin nodded, looked at the researcher, and asked him: "I saw that there is a Daao auxiliary loading and unloading ore on the prototype machine, why is this design removed from the simplified machine?"
"This..." The researcher was stunned by Chen Xin's question, and then slowly explained: "The design is not very stable, and the operation is a bit complicated, it feels not very convenient, and cost considerations, so the simplified version This design was cancelled and changed to what it is now."
Hearing what the researcher said, Chen Xin shook his head helplessly, and said to him: "Although simplifying the structure and reducing costs are important, you have done too much! No matter how complex the design is, it is better than just bending over and picking up rocks like this. Save effort?"
"Ah, this...we didn't think it over well." Although he didn't change this design, the researcher had no choice but to do it at this time.
In fact, in the previous laboratory test phase, this mining Titan initially retained the auxiliary robotic arm to collect the ore, and then directly loaded it into the mine bucket behind it.
However, because it is a mine bucket, not a mine cabin used on the standard Titan, there are some differences in the structure of the two, which leads to the fact that when the simplified machine lowers the predecessor and uses two robotic arms to collect ore, the mine bucket The ore will slide out from inside.
Although it is said that installing a partition can solve the problem, in order to simplify the design, and in the actual test, the driver did not feel any inconvenience when bending over to pick up the stone, so the relatively complicated was removed. Robotic arm design.
However, listening to what Chen Xin said at this time, the researcher also realized that he felt bad.
In the experimental test, they just broke a simulated rock poured out of cement. Even after breaking it with a pneumatic pick, it only broke into a few pieces. In terms of the output of the external skeleton, it was really easy to pick it up, just bending down. Things.
But for workers in the mine, this means that they have to bend dozens or even hundreds of times a day.
The equipment originally designed for workers to improve production efficiency and reduce labor intensity, on the contrary, increases the degree of fatigue of workers. Such a design is undoubtedly undesirable.
So after Chen Xin pointed out this point, the researcher quickly realized this problem, so he took the initiative to carry it.
However, the purpose of carrying the pot back was not to perfuse the matter. The researcher quickly asked Chen Xin: "Academician, do you think you should add back to the original mechanical arm design?"
"I don't have a say on this. I have to ask the worker master." Chen Xin pointed to the foreman standing in front of him, and said to the researcher: "Whether it's useful or not, it can only be given by actual users like them. The most intuitive answer is whether to change the structure of a mechanical arm to assist in the collection of ore, or let him see what's going on."
"Okay, UU read www.uukānshu.com, I understand." The researcher nodded, did not say anything, just looked at the passage where everyone came from behind, and waited for the arrival of the prototype.
After waiting for a while, the prototype did not come down, but the driver himself got down from the elevator on the side.
"Sorry academician! The prototype was too big and got stuck when it came down." The pilot of the prototype looked helpless and frustrated. He finally got the chance to drive the Titan, but he got stuck because of his size. This is a shame.
When Chen Xin heard this, the expression on his face was also shocked, and asked in amazement: "How did you get stuck? Where did you get stuck?"
"Just in the tunnel above, I came in very smoothly. I didn't encounter any obstacles, but the tunnel below suddenly narrowed and jammed the body." The driver said here with a grievance. .
Originally it was just a test, plus the previous passages passed smoothly, he was sloppy, but he did not expect that because the light was too dark, he did not notice the sudden narrowing of the tunnel in front, so he was stuck by the tunnel wall. .
