Home Workshop

It is not always possible to arrange the lamps above the workbench so that they evenly illuminate it along its entire length. We propose to make a lamp, the position of which can be adjusted as needed by moving the bracket with the lampshade up and down and from side to side. Rather, it is even a sconce, which, as it should be, is hung from the wall. Its basis is the frame. Two consoles depart from it: a vertical rack is clamped in them. A sliding block with a lamp arm moves along the rack. The power cord can be attached to the bracket by passing it through a pair of drilled holes.

The frame is made up of two side rails 600 mm long and one central rail 500 mm long. A pair of crossbars is glued to them - koi-salt 200 mm each. All parts have a section of 25x25 mm. The length of the bracket can be different and is limited only by the possibilities of fastening in the sliding block of the rack: for this, a groove is made in the latter with a chisel, where it is inserted with glue and fixed with screws. The section of the rails of the block and the rack is also 25x25 mm.

The lampshade can be made from a sheet of tin, rolled up in the shape of a funnel, and then painted with bright nitro enamel. It is better to impregnate wooden parts with drying oil and cover with furniture varnish.

Lamp: 1 - frame, 2 - top console, 3 - rack, 4 - sliding block, 5 - bracket, 6 - power cord, 7 - lampshade, 8 - corner, 9 - bottom console

The last piece of advice: if you can’t hold the block on the stand on your own, then make horizontal holes in it for a pin of small diameter, on which the block will rest when rearranged.

Alcohol content of warm beer 07.05.2024

Beer, as one of the most common alcoholic drinks, has its own unique taste, which can change depending on the temperature of consumption. A new study by an international team of scientists has found that beer temperature has a significant impact on the perception of alcoholic taste. The study, led by materials scientist Lei Jiang, found that at different temperatures, ethanol and water molecules form different types of clusters, which affects the perception of alcoholic taste. At low temperatures, more pyramid-like clusters form, which reduces the pungency of the "ethanol" taste and makes the drink taste less alcoholic. On the contrary, as the temperature increases, the clusters become more chain-like, resulting in a more pronounced alcoholic taste. This explains why the taste of some alcoholic drinks, such as baijiu, can change depending on temperature. The data obtained opens up new prospects for beverage manufacturers, ... >>

Major risk factor for gambling addiction 07.05.2024

Computer games are becoming an increasingly popular form of entertainment among teenagers, but the associated risk of gaming addiction remains a significant problem. American scientists conducted a study to determine the main factors contributing to this addiction and offer recommendations for its prevention. Over the course of six years, 385 teenagers were followed to find out what factors may predispose them to gambling addiction. The results showed that 90% of study participants were not at risk of addiction, while 10% became gambling addicts. It turned out that the key factor in the onset of gambling addiction is a low level of prosocial behavior. Teenagers with a low level of prosocial behavior do not show interest in the help and support of others, which can lead to a loss of contact with the real world and a deepening dependence on virtual reality offered by computer games. Based on these results, scientists ... >>

Traffic noise delays the growth of chicks 06.05.2024

The sounds that surround us in modern cities are becoming increasingly piercing. However, few people think about how this noise affects the animal world, especially such delicate creatures as chicks that have not yet hatched from their eggs. Recent research is shedding light on this issue, indicating serious consequences for their development and survival. Scientists have found that exposure of zebra diamondback chicks to traffic noise can cause serious disruption to their development. Experiments have shown that noise pollution can significantly delay their hatching, and those chicks that do emerge face a number of health-promoting problems. The researchers also found that the negative effects of noise pollution extend into the adult birds. Reduced chances of reproduction and decreased fertility indicate the long-term effects that traffic noise has on wildlife. The study results highlight the need ... >>

Martian soil - radiation protection 22.10.2012

European Space Agency specialists, together with scientists working at the GSI accelerator in Germany, will test the potential suitability of lunar and Martian soil as a radiation shield.

During this two-year ESA project, it is planned to test whether the lunar and Martian soil can protect astronauts from cosmic radiation. This is of great importance for the future exploration of the Moon and Mars, as it affects the design of the first lunar and Martian settlements, the choice of equipment and the cost of expeditions.

ESA specialists had to use in their project the only accelerator in Europe capable of accelerating heavy atomic nuclei to ultra-high speeds - it is with such particles that astronauts will have to meet outside the Earth. The accelerator is located at the Helmholtz Center for Heavy Ion Research (GSI).

GSI simulates high-energy galactic radiation, which has already tested the protective properties of such common materials as aluminum, water, polyethylene, and a number of composites. Now, based on data on the conditions on the Moon and Mars, they will create a model of the soils of these celestial bodies and test their ability to delay cosmic radiation.

At first glance, the problem of protecting people from cosmic radiation is simple: you need to make the protection thicker - that's all. However, even if we write off the high cost of putting heavy protection into orbit, this problem is more complicated than it seems. For example, a thick metal shield, which is bombarded by heavy high-energy particles, itself begins to produce secondary radiation - sometimes even more harmful than the primary one.

Currently, scientists know that water and polyethylene are better at protecting against cosmic radiation than, for example, aluminum. The best result is shown by a new hydrogen-saturated material developed by scientists from the British company Cella Energy. Interestingly, this material was originally created to store hydrogen fuel. However, for the construction of permanent lunar and Martian bases, the best option would be to use local materials. Therefore, the ESA focused on the alien soil.
