    • @livedandletdie
      @livedandletdie 2 ปีที่แล้ว +30

      A lot of these mechanisms, not all of them, but a lot of them have or did serve a use. There were a lot of Universal Joints in the video, which allows for translating movement in a direction offset to the axis of the drive.
      For instance, in cars, when you turn your steering wheel, due to universal joints the wheels can rotate in place instead of having to move way much, thus not changing the point of contact meaning the wheels no matter in which direction they face, will push on the exact same piece of road as if they were stationary.
      And without Universal joints good luck having an axle rotating the wheels and having to move the entire axle instead of just the wheels.

    7:15 and this is why when we make bigger version of these mechanisms or want them to be more reliable we use stuff like steel and lots of Greece, I was actually thinking how half the stuff in this video I recognise from tinkering over the years, I consider myself to be quite lucky that when something would break my mum would let me take it apart I’ve never become an engineer or mechanic but it have let me learn how stuff was meant to work and saved us quite a bit of money over the years when I’ve fixed things that would normally have been thrown out or have to pay to get them repaired.

    The reason that all of them broke at the end is because the motor caused so much vibration that the contraptions wiggled them selves apart, but if proper counter weights were added, I think them would last longer.
