Hast du wirklich gut hin bekommen. Hab mich während deiner Entwicklung schon für das Aggregat interessiert. Mit diesem Video, gerade mit dem Schnitt der Takes, hast du es sehr gut in Szene gesetzt. 👏🏻🛠👍🏻🙋🏻‍♂️

[@legolaus1]

Vielen Dank für die netten Worte :-) Ich lerne mit jedem Video dazu. Diesesmal habe ich bemerkt, daß ich mir ein Kamerawägelchen bauen muß, daß während der Fahr auch die Höhe ändern kann. So bekäme ich auch fließendere Aufnahmen hin. Es sollte auch eine Sequenz mit unserem Hallenkran dazukommen, bei dem das Aggregat an der Traverse in die Halle gefahren wird. Aufnahmen von schräg unten hätte ich gern gemacht. Dann hat die Trenntür zum Kran geklemmt und der Plan ist gekippt. Aber so hatte ich auch ein paar Aufnahmen. Allerdings ist man bei dem Modell sehr beschränkt, da er ja nicht wirklich viel macht. Da konnte ich bei den Videos mit den Fahrzeugen mehr rausholen. Dafür ist auch die Geländegängigkeit interessant für´s Auge und liefert mehr als das statische Fahren in einer Ebene

[@__luggas6225]

i´m suprised how smooth it runs

[@legolaus1]

the crankshaft is supported at nine points, the camshafts at five points each. the valves are returned by gravity. everything is relatively lightly polluted. even the pistons only run between a large number of axes, so that there is hardly any friction :-)

[@bertdewaal6350]

Long ago I worked at a hospital that had three of these as a triple redundant backup in case the power-grid went down. The idea was that one engine would run 24/7 regardless, that way if the local power-grid failed, it would immediately take over to run the hospital. If that happened, the second V-16 would start as a backup for the first. The third V-16 was a backup in case #1 or #2 failed. Could also be used to alternate for maintenance.

[@legolaus1]

a friend of mine works as a house technician at a bank, he also has emergency power generators in the basement. there are two 90-liter engines, V20. also very impressive. unfortunately i never got near such giants

Incrível muito maneiro

[@drubradley8821]

This was really neat.. I have one of these that I have to do a check list on at a building I maintain. I don't think people realize, just how big these units are until they are standing in front of one, or rather, off to the side of one.. I kindly ask, on the end of the block, there is one of the grey shocks absorbers or grey spring for the typical use of vehicle suspension systems.. What does it approximately do on this model. is it an "In-Case" something lets go in the crank shaft to jammed up piston, and this would allow a "break-away" type system so no parts actually get physically broken? Either way, this was neat. oh, a side note as per the unit I mentioned, it has a diesel fuel tank, well, actually it has two, one on each side isolated by a ballistic steel and brick walls, in case one of the single unit valve train heads desires to not stay put and grow wings and fly and mach 17.. The armored walls have 3/8" to 1/2" thick ballistic plate cladding, on both side of each wall. But the tanks if I remember correctly, are 5,000 gallons each, totaling 10K gallons. The system of course is fully automated, but can manually be started. Although, it has never in the 25 to 45 years ever been checked to see actually how long that much fuel will last running the loads that it normally would see on the generator, but, it is assumed that the fuel would last about 3 to 6 months. Again, I do not know that factually. It does it auto checks and runs for an hour or two, once a week, during the summer time, and once a month during the winter time. It has ever only needed to come on once in the 45 to 65 years since from what other employees that worked in my job before me told me, and can only confirm my 25 to 30 years that is never did need to be required to keep out systems operational, other then the testing and its self auto running to as a safety check. The Generator the diesel engine is connected to, has a total output of 990KW (990,000 kilowatts) and 24 rectifiers, or to say, a pair of 12 rectifiers, as one set is a back up that are paired up the other side. if one fails to handle the load, or will not sinc the phases, the system can drop one of the 12 out, and acquire one of the other 12 and put to work. The battery store room, about 90 feet away, is massive too. The entire floor (concrete floor) is suspended on springs, and dampers and cabling ties, isolated from the walls, in case of earthquake stuff, not that we live in that zone, but being the age of the building and its old nature, that was from the WW2 era. and when considering that notion, my city was a target, due to the industrial and tech city that the city was, and kinda still is. anywhat. I enjoyed seeing this.. You took the time to post the video. well, I took the time to show you that I appreciated it. Thank you..I do wonder what parts you used for pistons though...

[@legolaus1]

Hello and thanks for the information! :-) I always find it very interesting to write to people who are familiar with this subject! you always learn a lot! Unfortunately, I have never seen such a large engine up close. I used to drive a truck myself, but only up to 440hp. to your questions ... the spring should only be used to keep the chain under tension and, if necessary, to dampen vibrations. the pistons are the mack rims that run between 8 long axles, which in turn are attached to the 5x7 frame. the rims fit exactly in between and move with almost no friction :-)

[@drubradley8821]

@@legolaus1 chain tensioner... now I see it what is going on. Clever with the rims, that put then at a really good scale for this model.. well done sir.

[@legolaus1]

@@drubradley8821 Thank you very much :-) At first it was just an idea and the rims fit exactly between the axles when they are arranged in a 3x5 grid. the second idea was to use the pistons of the lego fake motors as valves. one difficulty that i hadn't considered at first was the offset of the camshafts. with the v16 you have to switch to 45 ° twice. a friend had a good idea. everything else is actually just a case. The turbochargers looked unrealistic at first, only the rims alone have not yet made it. But i had found a bionicle part from the children of my life partner that fit exactly on the rims and it looked good

i have been working on it since christmas. I am currently finishing the building instructions. since the crankshaft is supported at nine points, i could imagine that it could run for a long time. it had to start very often for the video and i changed the speed many times. it had to run for about an hour for the recordings, but it has been running for a long time during the construction and creation of the mindstorms software

Danke für Deinen netten Kommentar :-) Die Bauanleitung mache ich selbst. Sie wird demnächst bei www.rebrickable.com veröffentlicht. Du findest mich dort unter dem Namen "Legolaus". Dort habe ich bereits 38 Modelle reingestellt. Da einige recht aufwändig sind (man sitzt an einer Anleitung teilweise mehrere Wochen) sind sie gegen ein kleine Gebühr zu haben, vieles aber auch kostenlos als Download. Es gibt eine Seite, bei der eigene Modelle eingestellt werden und die besten kommen in die Auswahl, so daß Lego sie tatsächlich als Set veröffentlicht. Aber ein Modell wie dieser Motor ist zu speziell, es würden nicht sehr viele Kunden kaufen, da eher Fahrzeuge gefragt sind. Und es hätte einfach zu viele Teile.

No, when you looking at the frame, there are two small, mindstorms-motors. Everyone of them control one Exhaust Flap. These Motors are Stepper, so ich can drive very small angles.

Buildamoc liefert dieSets mit original Legoteilen, Lesdiy mit Teilen von anderen Herstellern. Und tatsächlich ist das Mindstorms EV3 schwer beschaffbar und war schon immer teuer. Und wie Du auch schreibst, es sind wesentlich mehr Technik-Teile. Lesdiy ist also die günstige Alternative, wenn man jedoch original Teile haben möchte, kann man bei Buildamoc schauen. Tatsächlich habe ich selbst schon schlechte Erfahrung mit den kopierten Teilen gemacht, zwar nicht bei dem Modell,aber bei anderen. Daher gebe ich auch keine Modelle an Lesdiy, bei denen ich Zweifel habe, daß sie funktionieren könnten

Y EL VÍDEO DEL ARMADO DEL MOTOR???

No puedo mostrarlo todo ;-) Pero puedes ver el transporte del motor en el otro video

Pushrod?

Yes, but without springs, return via gravity

Is there a tutorial for this? I would love to create this

[@legolaus1]

I´m actualy working on it. I think in one week it should be finished. Look at www.rebrickable.com and search for "legolaus", that´s my nickname at this platform. The complete Set will be sold at www.buildamoc.com. But: you need about 8000 Parts, so it won´t be cheap...

Pero realmente lleva diésel o simplemente es simulación

[@legolaus1]

es sólo una simulación. está propulsado por dos motores eléctricos, sus aletas de escape también tienen un motor eléctrico cada una. 🙂

[@danielbahena6286]

I am guessing semi trucks have these engines

[@legolaus1]

This engine would be too big for an semi truck, in the original it weighs more than 32 tons and is almost 4m high. But a similar one is used in dump trucks like caterpillar 797. This one is often used as a drive for power generators :-)

Ok, thanks

No, it´s only a functional model. It is driven by two electric motors 🙂

no, it is a purely functional model, it is only supposed to imitate the movements :-)

@@shlushe1050 yes, green gecko builds such pneumatic motors. they are doing very well. You do need a compressed air supply, but you can use normal drinking bottles for this, they can hold several bars without bursting

How could I buy one / make one ? I need this in my life

[@legolaus1]

I'm just drawing the instructions for the model. you can find me at www.rebrickable.com under the name "legolaus". The model will also soon be sold at www.buildamoc.com. there you can also find me under "legolaus". however, the model consists of over 8000 parts and requires mindstorms. since the set consists of original lego bricks (no fake lego) it is not cheap ... you can get the plan at rebrickable and get the parts in another way (maybe used bricks), then it will be cheaper :-)

It's the fastest he can. The original from caterpillar has a displacement of almost 300 liters, which also doesn't turn much higher... okay, he can do a little more, but the valves can't keep up with the model, that's the real reason :-))))

Gibt ja auch schlimmeres als sowas. Das Modell ist echt super. Musste eben nur schmunzeln als ich die blauen pins sah. Wie lego bei ihren 370 euro sets. Deswegen bin ich eher für cada. Mit mein kommentar wollte ich auf keinen fall dein modell abwerten

@@marstec100 Aaach, kein Problem, wenn man veröffentlicht, muß man kritikfähig sein und es gehört auch dazu Meinungen zu hören. Ich gebe Dir sogar recht, wenn es der Standard wäre, wäre ich auch erfreuter. Bei mir ist es so, daß ich die Pläne der Modelle bei Rebrickable reinstelle, und oft schauen die Leute, welche Teile dafür nötig sind. Daher versuche ich möglichst Standard einzusetzen, damit es nicht zusehr abschreckt
