First design
The rectifier (Fig. 1) is assembled according to a bridge circuit on four D1-D4 diodes of the D305 type. The strength of the charging current is regulated using a powerful transistor T1, connected according to the compound triode circuit. When the bias taken to the base of the triode from the potentiometer R1 changes, the resistance of the collector-emitter circuit of the transistor changes. In this case, the charging current can be changed from 25 mA to 6 A at a voltage at the rectifier output from 1,5 to 14 V.
Fig. 1
Resistor R2 at the output of the rectifier allows you to set the output voltage of the rectifier when the load is off. The transformer is assembled on a core with a cross section of 16 cm2. The primary winding is designed to be connected to a network with a voltage of 127 V (pins 1-2) or 220 V (pins 1-3) and contains 350 + 325 turns of PEV 0,35 wire, the secondary winding is 45 turns of PEV 1,5 wire. Transistor T1 is mounted on a metal radiator, the surface area of which must be at least 350 cm3 on both sides of the plate with a thickness of at least XNUMX mm.
Second design
The scheme shown in fig. 2 differs from the previous one in that in order to increase the maximum current to 10 A, transistors T1 and T2 are connected in parallel. The bias to the bases of transistors, by changing which the charging current is regulated, is removed from the rectifier, made on diodes D5-D6.
Fig. 2
When charging 6-volt batteries, the switch is set to position 1, 12-volt batteries - to position 2. The transformer windings contain the following number of turns: 1a-328 turns of PEV wire 0,85; 1b - 233 turns of wire PEV 0,63; II-41+41 turn of wire PEV 1,87; III -7 + 7 turns of wire PEV 0,63. Core - USh35 X 55.

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 ... >>
| Random news from the Archive Spiders eat more meat than humans
22.03.2017
Scientists have long assumed that spiders are among the most active predators on the planet, and recently they were able to prove it. It turned out that the global population of spiders consumes up to 800 million tons of prey per year.
The order of spiders (Araneae) has more than 45 thousand species, while the average population density can be 131-152 individuals per square meter. Under the most favorable conditions, there are 1000 individuals per square meter.
All spiders are predators, feeding mainly on insects. Scientists have long been interested in the scale of the “catch”: back in the middle of the 2,2th century, naturalist William Bristowe calculated that 1012x2,2 spiders live in England and Wales, which can kill 1014xXNUMX insects annually. A number of colleagues disagreed with him, so for more accurate conclusions, it was necessary to change the data collection methodology.
The new study was conducted by specialists from the universities of Basel (Switzerland) and Lund (Sweden). The permanent biomass of the global populations of spiders and insects has been calculated based on data from open sources. Based on the estimated daily rate of food consumption by spiders and taking into account the dynamics of the reproduction of insect populations in certain territories, scientists were able to draw a big picture.
25 million tons of permanent biomass of spiders annually destroys from 400 to 800 million tons of insects. Such a significant difference in consumption is explained by weather conditions: on rainy days, insects hide, and spiders are less likely to catch prey.
Commenting on the data obtained, experts offer a comparison that allows us to assess the scale of spider predation. So, all seabirds annually consume about 70 million tons of food, for cetaceans this figure is at the level of 280-500 million tons of food, and even all people on the planet are content with 400 million tons of meat and fish per year.
What's more, the new study only looked at the volume of insect consumption by spiders, but these animals often prey on reptiles, birds, small mammals, and their own kind. Thus, although they are not at the top of the food chain, they are among the most active predators on Earth.
