Organization of a hanging crossing with pulling the rope after the crossing of the last participant. Travel Tips

Tourist tips

For guidance crossings the first participant, who crossed by one of the known methods to the opposite shore, fastens the double main rope on a tree or relief ledge according to one of the schemes dressing a loaded rope.

On the "starting" bank, on a tree or ledge of the relief, two loops from the main rope are fixed. The working end of the rope is circled around the protrusion of the relief (tree) and fixed on a pulling grasping knot tied at the root end (Fig. 50).

Then a chain hoist is organized with the working end using one loop.

A retaining grasping knot is attached to the second loop (Fig. 50). The pulley pulls the rope. Remember that after the holding grasping rope is not loaded.

When the rope is almost stretched, a figure-eight knot is knitted on it, so that with additional tension on the rope, the carabiner, fastened into the figure-eight, reaches the root end and fastens on it, forming a carabiner noose (Fig. 50). After that, the chain hoist is disassembled, the grasping and rope loops are removed. The taut rope remains hanging on the carabiner choke ("starting" bank) and the "etching system ..." (opposite (originally) bank).

The last participant fastens the auxiliary rope into the carabiner of the carabiner choke and crosses to the other side. With his arrival, the cargo rope is loosened, all knots are untied, and for the auxiliary rope all ropes are pulled out to the opposite (initially) bank.

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 ... >>

Cars in a convoy drive on autopilot 07.02.2012

The original SARTRE project successfully completed the tests: several cars in automatic mode and at high speed drove along the highway. Seven different European organizations are involved in the SARTRE project. This is the only non-military technology of its kind that allows cars to move close to each other in a convoy. SARTRE will reduce the fuel consumption of cars, improve traffic safety and increase the capacity of roads.

Recently, the first successful multi-vehicle demonstration of the new technology was completed: three passenger cars completely independently followed the leader truck, which was traveling at a speed of 90 km / h. The cars successfully maintained a distance of 6 m from each other and did not create an emergency. The SARTRE system works as follows: a car with a professional driver drives ahead of the column of cars, who closely monitors other vehicles and the situation on the road. Cars following him automatically measure the distance, speed and direction of movement of the vehicle in front. After the car is attached to the column of cars and automation comes into play, the driver following the leader can relax: have a snack, check e-mail, etc.

Thus, the comfort of traveling by car with the SARTRE system will increase significantly. Fuel will also be saved, the participation of the human factor in the traffic situation will decrease. At the same time, there is no need to rebuild the road infrastructure.

There is still a lengthy negotiation of a unified standard for automatic platooning technology, as well as the harmonization of numerous and varied national laws governing the movement of public roads. However, SARTRE technology will certainly be implemented and bring road transport to a new level of comfort and economy.
