Limits & Fits

Image
  Limits & Fits In engineering, we have to define the tolerances of parts to ensure a long lifespan and proper working of a machine. We can choose the fits according to the necessities and working conditions. The three main categories are: Clearance fit Transition fit Interference fit All these come with another subset of categories, each designed for different circumstances. Of course, we have to keep in mind that closer tolerances and more snug fits will result in higher costs because of higher demands on machining accuracy and the difficulty of assembly. A clearance fit always leaves room between the two parts. A transition fit is somewhere in between clearance fits and interference fits and can end up either way but without leaving much room nor being too tight. A interference fit is tight and creating the fit requires considerable force and other techniques for easing the process.  

Kerala startup develops Fin, a ring-shaped wearable that brings the ‘touchscreen’ to your palm

This ring is cool A wearable smart ring that can turn your palm into a gesture interface to control multiple devices is promising to be the next revolution in wearable technology; and it is seeking crowd funding to make its way to the market. Fin is the first hardware product developed by Kochi-based robotics startup RHL Vision which was one among the top 15 companies at the TechCrunch CES Hardware Battlefield in Las Vegas last week.  Fin was the only product selected from India for this prestigious event. The stylish thumb ring with gesture-control capabilities has been wowing technophiles with the sheer simplicity of its concept and its ease of use. Fin is fitted with a bunch of sensors that can detect finger taps, swipes and identify various parts of the palm by calculating their distance from the thumb. It uses smart Low Energy Technology such as Bluetooth for communication with connected devices. Fin can transmit these natural gestures as commands to any connected Blueto

New tech in Refrigeration: VAPOR ADSORPTION SYSTEM

Image
Hi all, In this post I will tell you about a new tech that is coming up adsorption refrigeration (not absorption) INTRODUCTION The conventional air conditioning system in automobiles uses a compressor to deliver the vapour refrigerant at high temperature to the condenser unit. The compressor derives its power from the engine itself. The cooling effect is produced by the sub cooling of the refrigerant in the condenser. Conventional vapor compression refrigeration systems, however, have a number of shortcomings which make it unviable in automobiles and there is a need for a better alternative. One of the alternatives being developed at present is adsorption refrigeration system. Adsorption is the phenomenon in which, the gas molecules (adsorbate) in the adsorbing pair gets deposited on the solid (adsorbent) surface. This is an exothermic process. Adsorption refrigeration system uses the process of adsorption-desorption and the thermodynamics associated with it to create t
