A stove in your pocket. Tips for the home master

Builder, home master

Fans of travel have a lot of devices for cooking hot food in field conditions (primus stoves, blowtorches, portable stoves, etc.). For their work, a supply of liquid fuel or firewood is required. The first is that it is not safe to store, and you will not find firewood in the mountains or in the barren steppe.

For climbers and tourists, hunters and fishermen, I offer a simple and easy-to-use stove that does not need traditional fuel. Such a mini-stove and several packs of dry fuel in a backpack will not take up much space.

Portable tourist stove (click to enlarge): 1 - stove body (duralumin s1, to fit the size of the pot), 2 - autonomous bottom of the body (duralumin s1), 3 - dry fuel, 4 - grate rod (steel rod Ø 3,5, 4 pcs.), 5 - pot

The camp hearth is assembled from sheet metal waste (duralumin, steel, etc.) The configurations of the bottom and wall of the stove repeat the shape of the used dishes, with a gap from the walls of 20-30 mm

The grate for installing dishes is several pieces of steel rods with a diameter of 3,5 (others are possible, then do not forget to drill the appropriate holes in the stove body) and 15-30 mm longer than the diameter of the stove. When preparing the hearth for work, the rods are threaded through holes drilled at a distance of 80-90 mm from its bottom in opposite walls

The design of the stove is shown in the figure. The dimensions are given for a standard military kettle In the stowed position, the bars of the grill are removed and the kettle is placed inside the case. As a result, the hearth takes up not much more space than cooking utensils. The space between the walls of the stove and the kettle is filled with equipment (bars of the grill, fuel, gear, etc.)

The design can be improved by providing it with folding legs and a pallet for laying fuel, and also by making a double wall with thermal insulation, a folding grate for installing dishes, etc.

The configuration and dimensions of the oven vary depending on the cookware used. But the device diagram must be saved. The flame must pass from the bottom of the cookware and further between the walls of the cookware and the stove, which ensures fast heating and reliable combustion even in strong winds. I have been using this comfortable stove for many years in all weather conditions.

Machine for thinning flowers in gardens 02.05.2024

In modern agriculture, technological progress is developing aimed at increasing the efficiency of plant care processes. The innovative Florix flower thinning machine was presented in Italy, designed to optimize the harvesting stage. This tool is equipped with mobile arms, allowing it to be easily adapted to the needs of the garden. The operator can adjust the speed of the thin wires by controlling them from the tractor cab using a joystick. This approach significantly increases the efficiency of the flower thinning process, providing the possibility of individual adjustment to the specific conditions of the garden, as well as the variety and type of fruit grown in it. After testing the Florix machine for two years on various types of fruit, the results were very encouraging. Farmers such as Filiberto Montanari, who has used a Florix machine for several years, have reported a significant reduction in the time and labor required to thin flowers. ... >>

Advanced Infrared Microscope 02.05.2024

Microscopes play an important role in scientific research, allowing scientists to delve into structures and processes invisible to the eye. However, various microscopy methods have their limitations, and among them was the limitation of resolution when using the infrared range. But the latest achievements of Japanese researchers from the University of Tokyo open up new prospects for studying the microworld. Scientists from the University of Tokyo have unveiled a new microscope that will revolutionize the capabilities of infrared microscopy. This advanced instrument allows you to see the internal structures of living bacteria with amazing clarity on the nanometer scale. Typically, mid-infrared microscopes are limited by low resolution, but the latest development from Japanese researchers overcomes these limitations. According to scientists, the developed microscope allows creating images with a resolution of up to 120 nanometers, which is 30 times higher than the resolution of traditional microscopes. ... >>

Air trap for insects 01.05.2024

Agriculture is one of the key sectors of the economy, and pest control is an integral part of this process. A team of scientists from the Indian Council of Agricultural Research-Central Potato Research Institute (ICAR-CPRI), Shimla, has come up with an innovative solution to this problem - a wind-powered insect air trap. This device addresses the shortcomings of traditional pest control methods by providing real-time insect population data. The trap is powered entirely by wind energy, making it an environmentally friendly solution that requires no power. Its unique design allows monitoring of both harmful and beneficial insects, providing a complete overview of the population in any agricultural area. “By assessing target pests at the right time, we can take necessary measures to control both pests and diseases,” says Kapil ... >>

Leg exercises positively affect the health of the brain and nervous system 03.06.2018

Scientists from Milan State University (Italy) conducted an experiment in which several mice moved only with the help of their front paws for 28 days. The rodents continued to eat and move normally. They did not experience stress (otherwise the experiment would not have given accurate results). Nearly a month later, biologists examined a region of the brain - the subventricular zone, which in many mammals is responsible for maintaining the health of nerve cells. In the same area, neural stem cells produce new neurons.

The experiment showed that limited physical activity reduced the number of neural stem cells by 70 percent compared to a control group of mice that were allowed to walk on all fours. In addition, both neurons and oligodendrocytes (special support cells that support nerve cells) did not fully mature when exercise was significantly reduced.

Research shows that as you work (especially in heavy weight exercise), your leg muscles send signals to your brain that are vital for producing healthy nerve cells that are essential for your brain and nervous system. If exercise is done infrequently, the body experiences difficulties and cannot create new nerve cells - the very "building blocks" that allow us to cope with stress and adapt to the difficult challenges in our lives. "It's no coincidence that we have to be active: walk, run, squat, sit and use our leg muscles to lift things," says Dr. Adami.

The researchers also analyzed individual cells and found that exercise restriction reduces the amount of oxygen in the body, which creates an anaerobic environment and alters metabolism. Decreased exercise also appears to affect two genes, one of which, CDK5Rap1, is very important for the health of mitochondria, the body's "powerhouse" that synthesizes ATP (adenosine triphosphate), which plays an important role in energy and substance metabolism.

These results shed light on several important health issues, from cardiovascular disease that results from a sedentary lifestyle, to diseases such as spinal muscular atrophy, multiple sclerosis, and motor neurone disease.
