IP Conclusion

In conclusion to this project, everybody
gets different results for these reasons;

First: definitely we need another prototype, as well the last isn’t well, and so we make a new plans.

Second: the material was too heavy an expensive as a result of this, the mechanism can´t move easily.

Third: clearly the mechanism was little, and obviously all my team wanted a mechanism more big and best than the last.

These three reasons was enough and definitely we wanted some better. Until all this time the new results was the best and obviously all our goals that we made at the beginning of this project were exactly that we wanted. As a result of the new plans we made a bigger mechanism, different of others and the most important was the glad that we get, when we finish it. The latest weeks every day we practice all that we will expose in front of the teachers.

Finally I’m glad for all results of this project and so because ultimately my team worked more different that at the beginning.

Parts, Functions and Locations


Look at the diagram and describe the function of each part.


1.-Fuel gauge:
The fuel gauge, can be found under the flywheel, to the right of the door of any vehicle. It´s an instrument in a vehicle that indicates how much fuel remains.

2.-Engine:
The engine is the most important thing of any car because without it, the car isn´t working. It is placed in front of the car, in the middle of the coffer.

3.-Drive shaft:
The drive shaft is placed in middle of the wheels and it is add to a part of the engine; a rotating shaft that transmits mechanical power from a motor or an engine to a specific point.

4.-Pipeline:
The pipeline of the car is a tube, where all the smoke of the burned fuel produced in the engine get out of the car. It begin under the engine and goes to tail of the car and ends with a silencer.

5.-Exhaust pipe:
Is the pipe that connects the pipeline with the silencer under the car, where the smoke get out. It placed under the car, to the right of the wheels.  

6.-Silencer:
Is the final part of all the exhaust pipe, it´s the bigger part of them. It is founded under the trunk.


7.-Brake:
Is an important part of the wheels, because this device can stop the car in an emergency. It placed to the left of ring in the wheel.

8.-Fuel tank:

This tank contain all the fuel that the car can take, and provide fuel to the engine. It placed above the left wheel.

Integral Proyect Report

Planning and Experimental Results.

Project management  and organization:

At beginning every classmates talk about, where can we get aluminum for begin to work at integral project. Our classmate Luis Fernando found a place to buy an aluminum bar.
Well, in that moment we had the aluminum bar, but it wasn´t cut and we have a new problem: who would cut the aluminum? Everybody thinks and the same time said ¡there is a mechanic lab! we went at mechanic lab and cut the aluminum in three parts for each team.
Sometimes we work in the school and in the Sebastian´s house, because that house was the most closest for everybody of our team.

Experimental Results:

We made many measures for to do the mechanism of two links with the aluminum bar, because we had two meters of the aluminum. We decided made the mechanism with the next quanty and measures: 8 bars of 15cm*2cm and 8 bars of 10cm*2cm.After that we begun to try to make a hole, where bolts was gonna inside of the aluminum bar and thigthen with a nut. We realize many times this process because, when the first link gave a round the nuts loosen and the link disarm.

Answers of the questions:

All this process of the mechanism, we have some pictures of the process for to ensamblimg each part of the link. Each classmate of my team worked in the link and when the mechanism staid ensemble each one get glad for the link and  propouse many ideas for to upgrape it. At the moment to realize the mechanism, we worked step by step without write instructions, each time trying to do faster and well. With all the process made approximately the fifthy porcen of the proyect, as well, the programation isn´t made till. Also my team have thinked to paint and add more accessories to the mechamism like sticckers, some circuits like mini-piano for you can touch music while the mechanism is in movent also my tean want put leds that turn on one by one of differen color, also we want put motors for the mechanism can move lonely, and many things more.

Product Comparation

Survival Tool


This tool has a knife blade that cuts many things. It also has a screwdriver and two openers, one opens cans and the other one opens bottles. Also has  a ruler a pick and a wrench,but it doesn´t have saw neither hammer like the Multi-Tool and either has pliers like the Key-Tool.



Multi-Tool

This tool has a hammer that the survival tool doesn´t have and neither the Key-tool has. It also has a saw and two openers one for cans and the other for bottles. It has pliers and a knife blade but it doesn´t have pick or a screwdriver like the Survival Tool.




Key Tool

It´s a use tool because  it has a pliers and saw that  survival tool doesn´t have. It also has a screwdriver a knife blade and has and bottle opener, It doesn´t have a can opener or a hammer like the multi tool  and neither has a pick or a ruler like the Survival tool.

Skateboard Vocabulary


Word
Picture
Definition
Wheels
Street skateboard wheels are rounded and symmetrical to use less material and keep the wheel light for flip tricks
Deck
The deck is the largest part of the skateboard and plays the biggest role in its quality. The type of deck usually tells what kind of skateboarding the skaters does.
Truck
The trucks are the metal part that connects the board and the wheels. They have adjustable parts and really affect the way our board feels.
Axle
The axle is the metal rod that runs through the hangar of a skateboard's trucks. The axle can, after a lot of riding, start to slip to one side. This makes one wheel too loose, and one wheel too tight
Plate
The skateboard plates give off a noticeable set of sparks when secured in place on your skateboard and dragged on the ground. plates.
Nose
The nose is the front kicktail of your skateboard. It is usually slightly broader than the tail.
Tail
The tail is the back kicktail of your skateboard. It is usually slightly smaller than the nose.
