The automatic lighting switch allows you to turn off the lighting 3 minutes after the switch button and turn on the light for the same time when a loud sound signal is given (clap, call, voice, etc.).

Automatic light switch

The machine is connected in parallel with the contacts S1 of the light switch. The supply voltage is supplied to the machine when the contacts S1 are disconnected. In this case, the capacitor C3 is charged through the resistor R7, the diode V4 and the control electrode circuit of the thyristor V5, as a result of which the thyristor V5 opens and closes the diagonal of the rectifier bridge V6-V9. The lamp will remain on. As the capacitor C3 charges, the control current of the thyristor V5 decreases and after 3 minutes the thyristor will close. As a result, the diagonal of the bridge V6-V9 opens and the lamp H1 goes out.

When exposed to sound vibrations, a series of pulses appear at the output of microphone B1, which, through the capacitance C2, act on the thyristor V3 and open it. Capacitor C3 is discharged through resistor R10 for about 4 s and keeps thyristor V3 open. Due to this, through the resistor R7, the diode V2, the thyristor V3, a pulsating current is supplied to the control electrode of the thyristor V5. The thyristor V5 opens, the diagonal of the bridge V6-V9 is shorted and the lamp H1 starts to burn until the capacitor C3 is discharged. Resistor R3 regulates the sensitivity of the machine to sound signals.

Details. Diodes V6-V9 type D226 KhPRI switching loads up to 100 W) or D246 (when switching loads up to 1 kW); any carbon microphone, for example, capsule MK-59 or MK-10; capacitor C3 type K50-7; zener diode V1 types D808-D813, D814A-D814D.

The establishment of the machine is reduced to the selection of the resistor R8. With a decrease in resistance R8, the sensitivity of the thyristor V5 and the time delay of the machine increase.

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 ... >>

New green energy system 28.09.2019

Researchers from the Institute of Microbiology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences have created a new biophotovoltaic (BPV) system by combining two species of bacteria. This system can work stably for more than 40 days, setting a new BPV durability record.

Biophotovoltaics (BPV) is a new green energy technology that uses biological photosynthetic materials (mostly live photosynthetic microorganisms) to convert solar energy into electricity. BPV is more environmentally friendly and potentially more cost effective than semiconductor photovoltaic (PV) systems, given the toxicity of photovoltaic materials.

However, the power density of modern BPV systems remains generally low: photosynthetic microorganisms have a weak ability to transfer electrons outside cells. To solve this problem, the researchers created a microbial community of two types of bacteria.

This microbial "consortium" consists of photosynthetic cyanobacteria and exoelectrogenic Shewanella bacteria. Exoelectrogenic bacteria are a type of anaerobic microorganisms that have adapted to live in an airless environment. When such a bacterium releases an oxygen atom, it receives a positive charge. As the energy carrier responsible for the directed energy transfer between cyanobacteria and Shewanella, the researchers chose D-lactate, lactic acid.

In the new system, cyanobacteria "capture" solar energy and fix carbon dioxide molecules to synthesize D-lactate, while Shewanella generates electricity by oxidizing D-lactate, thereby creating a limited flow of electrons from photons to D-lactate, and then to electricity. .

Through genetic manipulation, as well as media and device manipulation, these two completely different organisms can work together effectively. Experiments have shown that the new BPV system can operate stably for more than 40 days at an average energy intensity level of 135 mW/m2. This is the longest run time and power level of any BPV system.
