The study of innovative textile muscles is useful for the construction prototypes active suits. These suits are obtained by inserting small pneumatic into a vest. allow some movements upper limb to be made rehabilitation or motor recuperation purposes. An bellows muscle presented in this paper, where its performances have been evaluated means both an analytic and numerical model.
After the harvesting process, agricultural products (grains, fruits, vegetables, etc.) cannot be used directly for different purposes such as: preservation, consumption, industrialization, marketing, sowing, Prior to receiving a particular destination, it is necessary and obligatory harvested undergo preparatory operations on conditioning quality control in order meet uses.In improve grain health avoid production decline worsening due attack of diseases pests transmitted through grains,...
Abstract In the past years, nanotechnology has been studied and it proved that is one of advanced ways for toxic compounds removal from wastewater. this paper we focus on nanomaterials used treatment wastewater containing heavy metals. Nanoparticles have very high specific adsorption capacity being applied in water depollution, remediation process. The depollution methods based could be more cost-effective, less time energy consuming, generating no or waste comparison with conventional...
The paper presents the main theoretical elements underlying separation of seeds after their surface. Usually in seed cleaning and sorting process by surface are used machines with electromagnetic or magnetic systems, which represent working elements. Based on characteristic element may rely make a difference process, it was developed mathematical model smooth motion drum an rotary cylinder order to determine detachment place speed. Also this paper, is made theoretic analyze trajectory free...
In this article will be presented the evolution of nonconventional pneumatic actuators, in general Pneumatic Artificial Muscles known technical literature as PAM’s that were patented well their main operating principles and area activity. These types actuators have been applied all kinds applications from mechanical engineering, robotic, alimentary industry, special equipments, diagnostic medical devices prostheses.
The purpose of this article is to introduce and present the Pneumatic Artificial Muscle (PAMs) most used in robotics automated applications Europe Asia. Many treatises discussed mathematical numerical modeling, especially for McKibben muscle type. Also, I am going explain working principles PAMs understand their behavior, how generate forces translations. Modeling theoretical application made by others will be a Finite Element Method Analyze (FEM) designee FESTO shown also underline...
In context of fruit sustainable technologies was developed the orchards innovative planting technology created to be used especially on heavy environmental conditions, respectively degraded lands.Nowadays, slope terrains are a very important topic in hilly and mountainous areas, where large areas have been deforested, this way land degradation phenomena occurred with serious social consequences areas.In order mitigate stop those effects, from technologic point view, must made specific...
This research was conducted during 1984-2009, on an irrigation reel hose machine - IATF-300 type. The paper presents the mathematical model that has been used to optimize hydraulic engine performance, its attempts where made taking in consideration recommendations test it a load charge.
One of the most dangerous and destructive parasitic weed seed is dodder, due its impact it registered in list crops risk factors also affects directly animal health.At national level, damage that generates agricultural crop production reaches 50-100 % worldwide causing losses 14-15 %.For this reason forage plant determined by purity sowing process, at international regulations required to be 100 free dodder seeds, because a single can compromise whole culture.Complete separation seeds from...
Usually, the planting seedlings for terrain reforestation require a lot of manual labour and high number workers, in order to minimize these requirements it is necessary use mechanical system serviced by minimum two qualified workers carry out holes.In this way soil drilling equipment can be used horizontal ground also on slope terrains (max.15º).This mechanism had been designed with an innovative orientation system, which has possibility execute vertical holes.The kinematic analysis was...
Rising the added value to fruit growing products can be achieved by developing adequate technologies ensure food security, safety and increase farmer income.Many farmers are pursuing news applications dedicated post-harvesting processing of their horticultural products, beginning with most commune instruments finishing efficient ones.The technology that will presented in this paper consists a number equipment related each operation, namely: washing, extracting kernels, drying, packaging.In...
Harvesting, preparation and conservation of hay is a frequent method for harvesting fodder from grasslands forage crops, especially the hill mountain areas. The greatest losses nutrients are obtained by traditional drying on stubble hay. These in case unfavourable weather even at 50 ... 60%, time increasing to over 6 8 days. This paper presents results experimental researches achieved within new technology shortening clover obtaining storage humidity. A pilot ventilation installation with...
This paper aims to present a first part of research carried out on pneumatic muscles. The applications these actuators were in the innovative areas as: rehabilitation medical equipments, prosthesis, robotics and exoskeletons. Despite large number applications, theoretical experimental this area are not many, due there complex structure which used new materials, combination synthetic rubber membrane polymers fibers. In article will be presented results specific muscle based it realized...
