The proposed scheme will protect radio equipment, for example, a radio station or a radio tape recorder, from failure due to accidental polarity reversal or an increase in supply voltage, which often happens when a generator in a car malfunctions.

The scheme of the device is shown in fig. 7.29.

Hardware protection unit

With the correct polarity and rated voltage, the diode VD1 and the thyristor VS1 are closed, and the current through the fuse FU1 flows to the output of the device. If the polarity is reversed, the VD1 diode opens and the FU1 fuse blows. The HL1 lamp lights up, signaling an emergency connection. With the correct polarity, but the input voltage exceeding the set level, set by the zener diodes VD2 and VD3 (in this case, 16 V), the VS1 thyristor opens and short-circuits the circuit, which causes the fuse to blow and the emergency lamp HL1 to light up.

Fuse FU1 must be rated for the maximum current consumed by the radio equipment.

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 ... >>

Embryo from stem cells 10.09.2023

Scientists from the University of Cambridge and the California Institute of Technology have made significant progress in growing artificial "near-embryos" from stem cells. The experiment provides new opportunities for research into genetic disorders, but also raises serious questions about morality and legality by creating structures that closely resemble the human embryo.

The embryo created had absolutely no relation to eggs or sperm and was devoid of a heart or brain development. However, it contained cells that form the placenta, the yolk sac, and the embryo itself.

This progress has been achieved by reprogramming embryonic stem cells. Despite this, the use of synthetic embryos for clinical purposes is not possible in the near future. This would be a flagrant violation of the law and it remains unclear whether such structures can develop further after the early stages of formation.

The researchers hope that these models will be useful in understanding the "black box" of human development, that is, the period after 14 days from the moment of fertilization, which is legally established as the deadline for culturing and studying embryos in the laboratory.

Robin Lovell-Bedge, head of the department of stem cell biology and developmental genetics at the Francis Crick Institute in London, explained: "The idea is that by creating normal human embryonic development using stem cells, we can gain a lot of information about the early stages of development and identify potential harm by avoiding the use of early embryos for research."

Previously, the same team of scientists demonstrated how mouse stem cells are able to develop into early embryo-like structures. These structures included the intestines, early forms of the brain, and even the beating heart. Currently, researchers are actively working on creating similar human models.
