1. THE SMOKE-O-SYSTEM JEFF S, ALI J, RAIYAN F, JARED U
2. REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL We were given a list of requirements
and criteria for the mechosystem Purpose was to develop a system
that accurately displays mechanical engineering to all audiences
Educate all members of the audience Leave a positive impression on
the public Encourage interaction with audience Utilize a 2.5
diameter ball at a specified speed
3. DESCRIPTION After the engine dissection, we decided to use
engine parts in our mechosystem, to educate the public about
machines they interact with every day, but perhaps take for
granted.
4. SYSTEM COMPONENTS Smoke Machine Activated by the ball Turns
off after a minute of inactivity Has a drain valve for un- used
fluid DRAIN FLOW MAIN FLOW
5. SYSTEM COMPONENTS Crankshaft 1. Pistons 2. Connecting rod 3.
Gear Connecting to camshaft 1 3 2
7. SYSTEM COMPONENTS TOP VIEW FRONT VIEW PISTON CHAMBER INTAKE
VALVE EXHAUST VALVE PUSH ROD
8. SAMPLE ANIMATION
9. SUMMARY The mechosystem exemplifies real life applications
Familiarity of engines helps relate to audience Interactive
experience creates interest in system
