An electronic non-contact micrometer measures the diameter of a copper wire in the range from 0,12 to 1,8 mm.

The VT1VT2C4C5L3 generator operates at a frequency of about 15 MHz and, through the coupling coil L2, feeds the measuring part, consisting of the RA1 microammeter, diodes VD1, VD2 and the L1C1C3 circuit. A positive voltage half-wave on L2 creates a current in the PA1-RP1-RP2-VD2 circuit, and a negative one - PA1-RP1-L1C1C3-VD1. With the RP2 trimmer, when adjusting, the microammeter needle is set to zero.

Coil L1 of the inductive sensor, together with C1СЗ, forms a parallel circuit tuned to work on the right slope of the resonant curve, that is, it performs the functions of a frequency discriminator. When a piece of copper wire (diamagnet) is introduced into the coil L1, the resonant frequency L1C1C3 increases (approaching the frequency of the generator VT1VT2), and the resistance of the circuit increases; a current begins to flow through the microammeter, which is practically proportional to the diameter of the measured piece of wire.

Design: L1 is wound on a ceramic tube 20 mm long, with an inner diameter of 2 mm and an outer diameter of 4 mm - 42 turns (turn to turn) with PEL-0,21 wire. The L2L3 transformer is wound with a PEL-0,33 wire on a polystyrene frame with a diameter of 6 and a length of 15 mm - first L3 in one row of 22 turns with a tap from the middle, on top of it L2 -11 turns. The transformer of the power supply unit (the device can also be powered from the Krona battery) is made on a W-shaped magnetic circuit with a cross section of 4,2 cm2, the primary winding is 2160 turns of PEL-0,15, the secondary is 120 turns of PEL-0,38 mm. Microammeter RA1 - for a current of 100 μA.

When adjusting the C5 trimmer, the generation frequency is set to 15 MHz, C3 - the resonance of the L15C1C1 circuit is taken "to the left" from 3 MHz, with a copper wire with a diameter of 1 mm inserted into L1,8, the RP1 trimmer sets the PA1 arrow to the end mark of the scale, and RP2 - set to zero with "empty" L1. The device is calibrated with pieces of copper wire with a known diameter, while taking into account only the diameter of the copper core with the insulation removed.

The world's tallest astronomical observatory opened 04.05.2024

Exploring space and its mysteries is a task that attracts the attention of astronomers from all over the world. In the fresh air of the high mountains, far from city light pollution, the stars and planets reveal their secrets with greater clarity. A new page is opening in the history of astronomy with the opening of the world's highest astronomical observatory - the Atacama Observatory of the University of Tokyo. The Atacama Observatory, located at an altitude of 5640 meters above sea level, opens up new opportunities for astronomers in the study of space. This site has become the highest location for a ground-based telescope, providing researchers with a unique tool for studying infrared waves in the Universe. Although the high altitude location provides clearer skies and less interference from the atmosphere, building an observatory on a high mountain poses enormous difficulties and challenges. However, despite the difficulties, the new observatory opens up broad research prospects for astronomers. ... >>

Controlling objects using air currents 04.05.2024

The development of robotics continues to open up new prospects for us in the field of automation and control of various objects. Recently, Finnish scientists presented an innovative approach to controlling humanoid robots using air currents. This method promises to revolutionize the way objects are manipulated and open new horizons in the field of robotics. The idea of ​​controlling objects using air currents is not new, but until recently, implementing such concepts remained a challenge. Finnish researchers have developed an innovative method that allows robots to manipulate objects using special air jets as "air fingers". The air flow control algorithm, developed by a team of specialists, is based on a thorough study of the movement of objects in the air flow. The air jet control system, carried out using special motors, allows you to direct objects without resorting to physical ... >>

Purebred dogs get sick no more often than purebred dogs 03.05.2024

Caring for the health of our pets is an important aspect of the life of every dog ​​owner. However, there is a common assumption that purebred dogs are more susceptible to diseases compared to mixed dogs. New research led by researchers at the Texas School of Veterinary Medicine and Biomedical Sciences brings new perspective to this question. A study conducted by the Dog Aging Project (DAP) of more than 27 companion dogs found that purebred and mixed dogs were generally equally likely to experience various diseases. Although some breeds may be more susceptible to certain diseases, the overall diagnosis rate is virtually the same between both groups. The Dog Aging Project's chief veterinarian, Dr. Keith Creevy, notes that there are several well-known diseases that are more common in certain breeds of dogs, which supports the notion that purebred dogs are more susceptible to disease. ... >>

LG transparent display 28.06.2020

Transparent waferless displays promise to be commonplace in the future. First of all, they can become a feature of premium TVs. They display a color image, but we can see everything that is located behind them. As part of its participation in the InfoComm 2020 Connected online exhibition, LG showed its latest 55-inch transparent OLED screen.

LG believes that such transparent OLED displays have a great future, and they will successfully find their way not only in ordinary homes, but in exhibition halls, shopping malls, museums and offices.

The transparent display prototype offers FullHD resolution and a light transmittance of 38%. Thanks to thin frames, it is possible to install the panels close to each other, creating the effect of a coherent large picture. The transparent display uses projected capacitive film (P-Cap) technology for precise touch response and greater transparency than conventional transparent LCDs.
