Protective gear

Protective gear are available everywhere for a reason. Although protecting teeth during a sport or an activity may seem insignificant, it is important that students do what their parents and coaches ask them to put on as a type of protection. Not only would it protect them while they play, but it would make the game safe for everyone else. Mouthpieces are a type of protection that are found in activities such as hockey, football, wrestling and boxing. The soft plastic device is designed so that

advancements in the firefighter PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) has helped made this possible. Along with the development of other specialty equipment that a firefighter uses, has made it possible for a firefighter to arrive on seen with an entire arsenal of tools that they will require to sustain their engine company. The ability to carry, at most, a four-person crew along with one engineer. To illustrate, these brave men and women have special gear to provide safe means of fighting fire, such

Infection control Protective clothing including masks, gloves, gowns and goggles should be worn when coming into contact with an infected person. The US Centres for Disease Control (CDC) recommend that the protective gear leaves no skin exposed. These measures should be carried out for those who may handle objects contaminated by an infected person's body fluids. In 2014, the CDC began recommending that medical personnel receive training on the proper suit-up and removal of personal protective equipment

floss can hug the tooth and glide into the gums and not hurt. This opportunity, having been given leeway to just ‘do,’ allowed me to realize that I would be able to appreciate the use of my loupes. All other times, when smothered in my personal protective equipment, I could never imagine adding one more ounce of equipment to my person and the inevitability of its malfunction. My loupes and their usage have always been seen only as another hindrance in situations where I am already uncomfortable and

Gears are part of one of the six simple machines, the wheel and axle. Simple machines, such as the wheel and axle, are mechanisms created to make difficult work much easier. The six simple machines consist of the inclined plane, screw, lever, pulley, wedge, and wheel and axle. Gears can be found in many household items today. For example, watches, bicycles, and pencil sharpeners. The most common object, in which gears are found, is the car. The car’s steering wheel is a simple machine, called the

to many RC cars and other mini robot vehicles, using DC motors with a great package of speed reducer gearbox would be the best method to run the vehicle. In this section, I express a brief description of the DC motors and the chosen speed reducer gears, then next chapter would include more details regarding the relation between the motors and the power moves the vehicle with all the accessories. Also, it should be strong enough to supply the enough digging force when supporting the arm. Mabuchi

and implementation of steering mechanism is presented. The proposed approach is to construct a vehicle with 90 degrees turning wheels through "changing pinion over the rack" steering mechanism. The steering mechanism uses rack and pinion in defined gear ratios. The most conventional and general steering arrangement is to turn the front wheels using a hand operated steering wheel which is positioned in front of the Driver. The steering column, which contain an universal joint which is part of the collapsible

During the 4-month semester for Level 3 Drivetrains we reviewed in detail the operations for Torque converters, Planetary gears, Inputs and Outputs for Allison World Transmissions, and Power flow for Allison 1000/2000 series transmissions. In this essay, I will be revising and explaining how these systems work and what operations they serve. Torque converters act as the main torque multiplier in any automatic transmission, starting from the engine, going through the torque converter, then into

This type of transmission offered multiple gear ratios and, in most cases, reverse. The gears were typically engaged by sliding them on their shafts which required careful timing and throttle manipulation when shifting, so the gears would be spinning at roughly the same speed when engaged; otherwise, the teeth would refuse to mesh. These transmissions are called sliding mesh transmissions or sometimes crash boxes, because of the difficulty in changing gears and the loud grinding sound that often accompanied
