Chapter 275 Powerful Diesel Engines and Tractors
He first took the blueprint and started drawing densely on it.
I saw him writing very quickly and in just a few strokes he outlined the outline of a diesel engine.
"The cylinder diameter needs to be increased, and the piston needs to be replaced with aluminum alloy."
Li Yang said to himself, "The connecting rod must be made of forged steel, and the bearing bush must be replaced with lead. This will improve the pressure bearing capacity and lubricity."
Then, Li Yang started to process parts.
He first found a piece of alloy steel and threw it into the furnace to heat it. Soon, the steel block was burned red and emitted a dazzling white light.
Li Yang put on thick heat-insulating gloves, picked up pliers, and carefully picked out the "fireball".
He put it under the press and began forging.
With a loud bang, the hard alloy steel was flattened, stretched, and finally turned into a slender connecting rod.
Li Yang took it and nodded with satisfaction.
In this way, under Li Yang's skillful hands, parts were processed one by one.
Some of them are shining silver, some are emitting metallic luster, and they are neatly placed on the workbench, waiting to be assembled.
Soon, a brand new diesel engine was born.
It is pitch black all over, with rough lines, exuding a sense of power.
……
In this way, with the strong support of the top leaders, the United Technology Center soon got a piece of fertile land.
When the news came, Li Yang was extremely excited. He immediately organized people and began intensive preparations.
However, there are different opinions among the comrades at the United Technology Center about the use of this land.
Most people thought that this was just a temporary test field that Li Yang had set up to develop agricultural machinery. Who would have thought that this guy actually wanted to do something big and develop a real agricultural and sideline business!
"Engineer Li, you are really good! You managed to take care of a piece of land?" Old Ma was amazed and envious, "Are you planning to do some agricultural machinery experiments?"
Li Yang smiled mysteriously and kept the secret: "You don't understand this. In addition to developing agricultural machinery, I also plan to let our workers eat the food they grow themselves and drink the milk they squeeze themselves!"
"Ah? You really want to grow crops?" Old Ma opened his eyes wide, his mouth wide open in surprise.
Not to mention Lao Ma, even other colleagues were skeptical.
"Engineer Li, haven't you been working in machinery? Why do you want to farm?" Xiao Liu asked puzzledly.
"That's right. We are workers, not farmers. What kind of land should we farm?" Old Zhang also chimed in.
Faced with everyone's doubts, Li Yang seemed calm and composed.
He looked around and said earnestly: "Comrades, we, the working class, cannot just stare at the machines. Now that supplies are in short supply and food is scarce, how can we have the energy to work? Besides, wouldn't it be better if we could grow some vegetables and raise some pigs?"
"Back then, didn't our ancestors also do farm work? Self-reliance and hard work are the true revolutionary spirit! Now that we have this piece of land, we should roll up our sleeves and work hard to create a happy life with our own hands!"
Li Yang's passionate words instantly ignited everyone's enthusiasm.
"Mr. Li is right! If we can grow our own food, it will be a great liberation!"
"We can also raise pigs! Then, we workers can eat meat every day!"
"After listening to Mr. Li's words, my heart started beating like a drum! Let's go and do farm work with Mr. Li!"
……
For a time, the United Technology Center was filled with cheers and enthusiasm.
Everyone rushed to sign up for agricultural and sideline production, and they couldn't wait to rush into the fields and get to work.
Li Yang looked around and nodded with satisfaction.
He knew that with everyone's support, this experimental field would surely create miracles one after another!
Then, he took everyone to the laboratory.
Li Yang picked up the black diesel engine from the workbench and placed it carefully on the test bench.
This thing is half a person's height, emits a faint smell of motor oil, and exudes a sense of power.
Comrades from the United Technology Center immediately gathered around and looked at this huge monster with wide eyes.
"Wow, Engineer Li, is this the tractor engine you mentioned?" Old Ma exclaimed, "Why does it look so big? The tractors I've seen don't have engines like this!"
"That's right, how much horsepower does this thing have?" Xiao Liu couldn't help but ask. "How many plowshares can it pull?"
Li Yang smiled mysteriously and said confidently: "Don't worry, I'll show you my skills right away!"
As he spoke, he quickly connected the oil line, checked the circuit, and then, with a click, pressed the start button.
Boom!
With a loud bang, the diesel engine trembled and woke up. The entire test bench was vibrating slightly, and black smoke billowed, soon covering the entire workshop.
Everyone was surprised and delighted and couldn't help applauding.
"Great! This horsepower is more than enough!"
"That's right, this engine is like thunder!" Li Yang looked around proudly and continued to introduce: "Everyone, this engine is the latest achievement of my independent research and development!
Displacement 8.2 liters, cylinder diameter 110 mm, piston stroke 115 mm, rated power 70 horsepower!
The key is that it is all made of domestically produced parts, including bumpers, gears, and even screws.
Cheap and affordable, truly serving the workers and farmers!" Upon hearing this, several engineers from the automobile manufacturing plant suddenly widened their eyes and were stunned.
"Mr. Li, you said this is a diesel engine? These parameters are too exaggerated! The best 6-cylinder diesel engine in our factory only has 50 horsepower!" said Lao Zhao, the assistant to the factory director, stuttering.
"That's right, the displacement is almost as high as that of a truck! Are you going to build a tractor or a tank?" Chief Engineer Lao Qian couldn't help but joke.
Li Yang laughed, raised his hand and pointed at the blueprint behind him, saying: "You may not know, this engine of mine is equipped with a high-horsepower hand-held tractor! It can not only pull the plow, but also turn the soil, sow seeds, and harvest. One is worth several!
Revolutionizing our agricultural production is not a dream!" "Is it true? Isn't this too advanced?" Everyone was shocked and came to the blueprint to examine it carefully.
……
Li Yang raised his arm and took action immediately.
He directed everyone to take their positions and start to act separately.
In the machining workshop, several brand-new CNC machine tools roared.
Cutting fluid splashed, metal chips flew everywhere, and the workers were busy processing various parts.
On the lathe, the thick steel pipe was cut, hollowed out, and finally processed into a silver-glowing gear transmission box;
On the milling machine, steel plates are milled flat, punched, and welded to form the chassis frame of the tractor.
Next to the drilling machine, technicians are busy assembling hydraulic lifters to enable quick replacement of farm tools...
Li Yang walked among them, wearing a safety helmet, waving drawings, his face full of confidence?1?8
He knew that as long as everyone worked together, no matter how big the difficulties were, they could be overcome one by one!
On the other hand, the workers in the automobile factory are also busy making various supporting parts.
"Give me four 12-inch wheels! Heavy-duty ones!" Li Yang pointed at the drawing and ordered loudly.
"Where is the trapezoidal beam? The dimensions are 120*60, the wall thickness is 5 mm, and I need to use No. 45 steel to weld it!" Under Li Yang's command, each component was manufactured quickly and assembled one by one according to the positions specified in the drawings.
In the blink of an eye, the prototype of the tractor has taken shape.
The tall cab, the thick iron-studded tires, and the mighty diesel engine make it look like a beast ready to go!
"Great, really great!" Old Zhao exclaimed in amazement, his eyes almost popping out of his head.
He had visited Eastern Europe and seen a lot of advanced machinery, but this was the first time he had seen agricultural machinery designed from scratch and manufactured entirely independently!
……
While everyone was busy, Li Yang's new home was also under construction in full swing.
I saw a dozen workers working hard on the construction site, sweating profusely, with bricks and tiles flying and dust rising.
Soon, the originally dilapidated courtyard was transformed into a beautiful two-story building.
Li Yang looked around at all this with satisfaction, his heart pounding.
He secretly vowed to make more contributions to the motherland and let the people live a good life as soon as possible!
……
In the blink of an eye, the week-long parts processing is finally coming to an end.
In the welding workshop, the electric welding machines were making a hissing sound and blue sparks were flying everywhere.
Li Yang and Lao Ma are wearing protective masks and staring intently at the welds as they are welding fixing bolts to the last crossbeam of the tractor frame so that it can be seamlessly connected to the cab and engine compartment.
"Click!" As the last bolt was tightened, Li Yang wiped his sweat and straightened up as if relieved.
He looked around and saw that the scattered parts had been assembled one by one and neatly stacked, waiting for the final assembly.
"Here we go, brothers! The final battle!" Li Yang shouted, rolled up his sleeves, and rushed forward first.
Everyone cheered and came forward to help. Li Yang took charge of the operation himself, directing the crane to slowly lift the engine and move it above the front axle.
With a loud bang, the diesel engine sat firmly in its seat and was firmly connected to the chassis.
Then, the workers hurriedly installed four huge wheels, put on wide tires, and then installed the cab and dump truck in turn...
In a blink of an eye, a brand new walking tractor stood proudly in front of everyone!
It is painted in military green, with simple and tough lines, exuding a sense of power!
The 8.2-liter large-displacement engine, 12-inch wide tires, and four-wheel drive make it a beast on land!
What is even more amazing is its multifunctional agricultural implement device:
Hydraulic lifters, rotary tillers, furrow openers, fertilizer spreaders, seed drills... everything you need, a powerful tool for workers and farmers, well-deserved!
"This, this is too cool!" Lao Ma stared with eyes wide open, and was so excited that he couldn't speak clearly?1?8
