00:00:00,030 --> 00:00:04,650
welcome to another episode of intellect

2
00:00:01,890 --> 00:00:08,040
on Wednesdays and here it is business as

3
00:00:04,650 --> 00:00:10,219
usual as you can see I am trying out yet

4
00:00:08,040 --> 00:00:14,870
another lifting mechanism it's a

5
00:00:10,219 --> 00:00:14,870
comparable ratchet system combined

6
00:00:15,800 --> 00:00:24,439
that's basically the slow more rolling

7
00:00:34,120 --> 00:00:37,200
[Music]

8
00:00:40,100 --> 00:00:44,190
in the last week's video I built a

9
00:00:42,420 --> 00:00:47,039
ratchet marble lifting system and in

10
00:00:44,190 --> 00:00:50,070
that video I said this instead I came up

11
00:00:47,039 --> 00:00:52,110
with this a ratchet lifting system this

12
00:00:50,070 --> 00:00:55,860
system really had the ability to lift

13
00:00:52,110 --> 00:00:58,109
eight marbles per crank turn that was

14
00:00:55,860 --> 00:01:00,390
all wrong that ratchet system and the

15
00:00:58,109 --> 00:01:02,399
way it's driven only lifts for marbles

16
00:01:00,390 --> 00:01:03,870
per crank turn and in this episode I'm

17
00:01:02,399 --> 00:01:06,360
going to replace it with something

18
00:01:03,870 --> 00:01:08,030
better than a mouthful to explain why we

19
00:01:06,360 --> 00:01:12,790
need eight

20
00:01:08,030 --> 00:01:23,260
[Music]

21
00:01:12,790 --> 00:01:25,300
I thought I start with explaining why we

22
00:01:23,260 --> 00:01:27,790
need to lift eight marbles per crank

23
00:01:25,300 --> 00:01:32,400
turn you remember this test music I made

24
00:01:27,790 --> 00:01:32,400
to explain the magnet MIDI music system

25
00:01:33,030 --> 00:01:42,880
just to repeat every click here is one

26
00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:44,440
crank turn turn turn turn turn right so

27
00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:49,120
if we have a busy pattern on the

28
00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:52,570
vibraphone like this you can already see

29
00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:56,290
that we have one two three four notes

30
00:01:52,570 --> 00:02:01,840
that means that we need four marbles per

31
00:01:56,290 --> 00:02:03,550
crank turn to only to play this but the

32
00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:06,430
more machine X has more instruments in

33
00:02:03,550 --> 00:02:17,680
the vibraphone so if we add a simple

34
00:02:06,430 --> 00:02:20,620
snare of be like that we're up to nine

35
00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:23,180
marbles per to crank turns if so and if

36
00:02:20,620 --> 00:02:32,349
we then continue add a simple kick drum

37
00:02:23,180 --> 00:02:46,060
[Music]

38
00:02:32,349 --> 00:02:48,700
and then we add Hyatt on top of that you

39
00:02:46,060 --> 00:03:01,000
start to see here now seven marbles

40
00:02:48,700 --> 00:03:02,919
product seven six seven but this pattern

41
00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:21,819
is really simple if you make more

42
00:03:02,919 --> 00:03:24,189
complicated kick drum pattern you see

43
00:03:21,819 --> 00:03:26,459
we're already up to eight marbles per

44
00:03:24,189 --> 00:03:26,459
factor

45
00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:47,740
so this is drums and bar before girls

46
00:03:36,190 --> 00:03:50,950
have to face so with a very busy

47
00:03:47,740 --> 00:03:53,170
vibraphone pattern we exceed eight

48
00:03:50,950 --> 00:03:56,650
marbles per crank John here we have four

49
00:03:53,170 --> 00:03:59,950
seven and eleven marbles per crank turn

50
00:03:56,650 --> 00:04:02,080
so the marble machine would we'll be

51
00:03:59,950 --> 00:04:04,180
able to play this for some time because

52
00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:06,100
it has a lot of marbles stored upstairs

53
00:04:04,180 --> 00:04:08,980
but it won't be able to sustain it for

54
00:04:06,100 --> 00:04:10,720
five minutes when I make a really busy

55
00:04:08,980 --> 00:04:14,550
vibraphone pattern I need to keep the

56
00:04:10,720 --> 00:04:14,550
drum pattern a little bit less busy

57
00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:24,709
[Music]

58
00:04:27,470 --> 00:04:36,730
[Music]

59
00:04:38,920 --> 00:05:34,940
yes coffee what would we do without

60
00:04:45,110 --> 00:05:37,340
coffee so as you can see if we only had

61
00:05:34,940 --> 00:05:41,960
four marbles for a crank time we would

62
00:05:37,340 --> 00:05:50,900
only be able to play either only this or

63
00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:53,720
like only this or only this but if we

64
00:05:50,900 --> 00:05:55,640
can get eight marbles per crank turn we

65
00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:58,150
will be able to play almost something

66
00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:58,150
like this

67
00:06:00,909 --> 00:06:07,699
so that's why it's so important okay

68
00:06:04,719 --> 00:06:09,800
let's do some prototyping to solve this

69
00:06:07,699 --> 00:06:12,050
problem I started with some spring

70
00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:15,590
cleaning on my workshop and I built a

71
00:06:12,050 --> 00:06:17,750
weld card slash Robo wars contestant the

72
00:06:15,590 --> 00:06:19,610
draw for a sardar thought was a little

73
00:06:17,750 --> 00:06:22,090
bit tough his meeting this old tony's

74
00:06:19,610 --> 00:06:24,110
welding art in round one so we'll see

75
00:06:22,090 --> 00:06:27,289
what i have to measure with this

76
00:06:24,110 --> 00:06:28,849
prototype is the time for the marbles

77
00:06:27,289 --> 00:06:31,900
needs going there because this will move

78
00:06:28,849 --> 00:06:31,900
extremely fast

79
00:06:38,630 --> 00:06:43,990

80
00:06:46,420 --> 00:06:49,639

81

[Music]

82
00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:10,440
[Music]

83
00:07:12,910 --> 00:07:18,670
so this is the improved prototype with

84
00:07:15,740 --> 00:07:21,350
some changes and see if we can get up to

85
00:07:18,670 --> 00:07:23,450
marble speed with that I have a slow-mo

86
00:07:21,350 --> 00:07:28,670
camera set up the only thing I need now

87
00:07:23,450 --> 00:07:36,910
is the marbles so let's go over here and

88
00:07:28,670 --> 00:07:41,330
look and of course the one box I need is

89
00:07:36,910 --> 00:07:44,630
guarded by a demon I love animal but

90
00:07:41,330 --> 00:07:46,900
these long leg things have to convince

91
00:07:44,630 --> 00:07:50,930
it that this is the wrong box to sit on

92
00:07:46,900 --> 00:07:57,520
hello my friend can I please take my

93
00:07:50,930 --> 00:07:57,520
marble whoa okay he went that good

94
00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:26,760
[Music]

95
00:08:24,219 --> 00:08:46,629
this one up

96
00:08:26,760 --> 00:08:46,629
[Music]

97
00:08:54,040 --> 00:09:04,430
17 divided on 25 0.68 four strokes

98
00:09:00,009 --> 00:09:06,709
divided on 0.68 seconds equals five

99
00:09:04,430 --> 00:09:13,130
point eight miles per second times 16

100
00:09:06,709 --> 00:09:18,170
this was 352 BPM actually that's a nice

101
00:09:13,130 --> 00:09:20,449
Headroom yay this proves that the

102
00:09:18,170 --> 00:09:22,610
marbles loads fast enough in this method

103
00:09:20,449 --> 00:09:25,189
for playing music up to 200 bpm

104
00:09:22,610 --> 00:09:27,829
and in the prototype I'm using one row

105
00:09:25,189 --> 00:09:30,769
of marbles but in the real version we

106
00:09:27,829 --> 00:09:34,430
have eight marbles so now I need a way

107
00:09:30,769 --> 00:09:36,620
to divide all the marbles onto eight so

108
00:09:34,430 --> 00:09:39,230
if you remember week added a divided by

109
00:09:36,620 --> 00:09:41,029
eight swing to be asked me the branch

110
00:09:39,230 --> 00:09:44,290
from Gothenburg has sent me in the first

111
00:09:41,029 --> 00:09:47,420
3d print of that one and Here I am

112
00:09:44,290 --> 00:09:51,199
adjusting the weight not on the backside

113
00:09:47,420 --> 00:09:54,350
to really make the swing tip exactly

114
00:09:51,199 --> 00:09:56,600
when it has eight marbles on it I tapped

115
00:09:54,350 --> 00:09:59,810
and made hole in the plastic and I used

116
00:09:56,600 --> 00:10:02,420
this lock nut to lock both in to place

117
00:09:59,810 --> 00:10:04,970
and this really worked well you can

118
00:10:02,420 --> 00:10:07,730
adjust this with very high precision to

119
00:10:04,970 --> 00:10:09,860
fall exactly when when I wanted to fall

120
00:10:07,730 --> 00:10:12,769
but I realized that this swing is too

121
00:10:09,860 --> 00:10:14,839
slow because the conveyor belt can lift

122
00:10:12,769 --> 00:10:17,480
eight eight eight eight eight eight

123
00:10:14,839 --> 00:10:20,959
eight marbles fast like that and the

124
00:10:17,480 --> 00:10:23,600
swing can't handle that high marble

125
00:10:20,959 --> 00:10:26,990
pressure so I needed another way to

126
00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:28,699
divide by eight so I've been toting

127
00:10:26,990 --> 00:10:31,160
another system I've been trying this

128
00:10:28,699 --> 00:10:35,990
I've been trying duck when I come up

129
00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:38,149
with is this to divide one single roll

130
00:10:35,990 --> 00:10:40,220
onto eight just before the conveyor

131
00:10:38,149 --> 00:10:47,850
about

132
00:10:40,220 --> 00:10:54,120
this seems to be very reliable so if I

133
00:10:47,850 --> 00:10:56,010
know these marvels the marbles come into

134
00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:58,710
the ring gear from the planetary gearset

135
00:10:56,010 --> 00:11:02,580
the blue line there and they come in

136
00:10:58,710 --> 00:11:05,970
this new exit thing here that has quite

137
00:11:02,580 --> 00:11:08,910
complicated geometry but I think this

138
00:11:05,970 --> 00:11:12,450
will work great it attaches to the

139
00:11:08,910 --> 00:11:15,710
mainframe here as you can see I added

140
00:11:12,450 --> 00:11:18,240
some texts this 3d printed part here

141
00:11:15,710 --> 00:11:24,450
just for fun

142
00:11:18,240 --> 00:11:27,060
the marbles come in this thing they get

143
00:11:24,450 --> 00:11:30,150
split up onto the four channels like I

144
00:11:27,060 --> 00:11:32,370
talked about last week over the big

145
00:11:30,150 --> 00:11:35,630
demagnetizing wheel the magnets are not

146
00:11:32,370 --> 00:11:38,130
gonna be colored it's just for symbolism

147
00:11:35,630 --> 00:11:40,290
the marbles done I'm not really done

148
00:11:38,130 --> 00:11:43,110
with this is it sketches the marbles

149
00:11:40,290 --> 00:11:46,710
done gets collected into one row by this

150
00:11:43,110 --> 00:11:49,860
loft command I used to create this shape

151
00:11:46,710 --> 00:11:52,050
here and then they go into this and this

152
00:11:49,860 --> 00:11:53,520
is one of the most complicated things

153
00:11:52,050 --> 00:11:56,640
that I've ever carried because the

154
00:11:53,520 --> 00:12:01,890
geometries on these eight slopes are all

155
00:11:56,640 --> 00:12:04,860
individual so they have 5 degrees slope

156
00:12:01,890 --> 00:12:07,230
seen from this direction but they also

157
00:12:04,860 --> 00:12:09,780
have a 5 degree slope seen from this

158
00:12:07,230 --> 00:12:11,790
direction they're all individual from

159
00:12:09,780 --> 00:12:14,510
the start and need to end up at the same

160
00:12:11,790 --> 00:12:18,300
spot in the end so that was a little bit

161
00:12:14,510 --> 00:12:20,010
complicated this works exactly like the

162
00:12:18,300 --> 00:12:22,800
marble divider the channels that are

163
00:12:20,010 --> 00:12:25,530
full we'll skip the marbles and the

164
00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:29,760
models will roll into the empty channels

165
00:12:25,530 --> 00:12:33,480
and then they will be lifted up by this

166
00:12:29,760 --> 00:12:37,830
the conveyor belt system and the cool

167
00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:41,370
thing is so I found this inspiration

168
00:12:37,830 --> 00:12:44,070
from a YouTube video for like some kind

169
00:12:41,370 --> 00:12:47,160
of industrial solutions for nuclear

170
00:12:44,070 --> 00:12:50,970
plants and recycling stations where the

171
00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:53,860
uses chain links and was actually seeing

172
00:12:50,970 --> 00:12:56,019
that video that got me into understand

173
00:12:53,860 --> 00:12:58,600
how I can build a marble conveyor belt

174
00:12:56,019 --> 00:13:04,510
that is efficient and looks good

175
00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:09,190
so each chute that holds the marbles has

176
00:13:04,510 --> 00:13:12,310
a gear tooth shape so up here they turn

177
00:13:09,190 --> 00:13:13,720
into a gear drive and the chain links is

178
00:13:12,310 --> 00:13:18,610
also fitting in here

179
00:13:13,720 --> 00:13:20,769
between the gear as you can see here and

180
00:13:18,610 --> 00:13:23,589
the cool thing is that this conveyor

181
00:13:20,769 --> 00:13:26,560
belt is not driven by these gears it's

182
00:13:23,589 --> 00:13:29,890
not driven by a rotating mechanism this

183
00:13:26,560 --> 00:13:32,200
conveyor belt is driven by the two

184
00:13:29,890 --> 00:13:36,850
Pistons these two Pistons will move up

185
00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:38,380
and down with 40 millimeters travel so

186
00:13:36,850 --> 00:13:41,350
just just you can see here the right

187
00:13:38,380 --> 00:13:44,620
piston here is connected to half of the

188
00:13:41,350 --> 00:13:47,769
fish stair steps and the left piston is

189
00:13:44,620 --> 00:13:51,670
connected to the other half and I also

190
00:13:47,769 --> 00:13:55,269
implemented spring tension mechanism

191
00:13:51,670 --> 00:13:59,079
here to help the Pistons fight gravity a

192
00:13:55,269 --> 00:14:00,820
little bit and on this side we're going

193
00:13:59,079 --> 00:14:03,399
to have ratchets they are not sketched

194
00:14:00,820 --> 00:14:05,890
in this design yet but they are coming

195
00:14:03,399 --> 00:14:08,560
out to the left side here and they will

196
00:14:05,890 --> 00:14:10,990
go inside this conveyor belt here and

197
00:14:08,560 --> 00:14:13,829
the ratchet will lift the tooth

198
00:14:10,990 --> 00:14:16,810
themselves every chute will

199
00:14:13,829 --> 00:14:18,640
what-what-what-what so there's there are

200
00:14:16,810 --> 00:14:21,459
several things that is very very good

201
00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:23,199
with this design we're losing very

202
00:14:21,459 --> 00:14:25,709
little height if we look at it straight

203
00:14:23,199 --> 00:14:27,970
from the side like this let me put on

204
00:14:25,709 --> 00:14:29,769
orthographic and another perspective and

205
00:14:27,970 --> 00:14:34,149
then we have a really flat view like

206
00:14:29,769 --> 00:14:36,370
this so you can see that this is the top

207
00:14:34,149 --> 00:14:38,470
of the marbles and down here where they

208
00:14:36,370 --> 00:14:40,449
picked up is just five centimeters or

209
00:14:38,470 --> 00:14:42,390
something and then we done a lot with

210
00:14:40,449 --> 00:14:45,190
five centimeter fall height we

211
00:14:42,390 --> 00:14:47,529
demagnetize the marbles and we routed

212
00:14:45,190 --> 00:14:49,390
them around and back and if we look from

213
00:14:47,529 --> 00:14:50,779
the front of the machine

214
00:14:49,390 --> 00:14:54,930
[Music]

215
00:14:50,779 --> 00:14:57,720
we are actually not going out that far

216
00:14:54,930 --> 00:15:00,690
to the left with this design this

217
00:14:57,720 --> 00:15:02,880
conveyor belt reminds me of this snake

218
00:15:00,690 --> 00:15:05,339
rattle and roll game which I loved when

219
00:15:02,880 --> 00:15:08,310
you climb the waterfall you know in the

220
00:15:05,339 --> 00:15:10,260
like world seven super-difficult the

221
00:15:08,310 --> 00:15:13,769
marbles are like climbing the snake

222
00:15:10,260 --> 00:15:16,230
rattle and roll system so when these

223
00:15:13,769 --> 00:15:19,529
marble shuttles reaches the top it will

224
00:15:16,230 --> 00:15:21,810
tip over then the marbles will then roll

225
00:15:19,529 --> 00:15:24,930
on the backside on the chute that was

226
00:15:21,810 --> 00:15:27,810
before them if you see the structure

227
00:15:24,930 --> 00:15:30,810
here is that the marbles will start to

228
00:15:27,810 --> 00:15:33,750
roll on this surface so to speak it's

229
00:15:30,810 --> 00:15:35,670
right under the marbles on this one so

230
00:15:33,750 --> 00:15:38,910
they will roll on the swing that was

231
00:15:35,670 --> 00:15:43,079
before them and roll off into some

232
00:15:38,910 --> 00:15:47,100
tracks that I did not design yet so so

233
00:15:43,079 --> 00:15:48,839
that's the idea right now I think this

234
00:15:47,100 --> 00:15:52,560
is very viable because I've done a lot

235
00:15:48,839 --> 00:15:54,899
of prototyping to get to this point so

236
00:15:52,560 --> 00:15:56,940
when I built the first machine I only

237
00:15:54,899 --> 00:15:58,770
made videos when I was done with parts

238
00:15:56,940 --> 00:16:00,870
and I was regretting off towards that I

239
00:15:58,770 --> 00:16:04,290
didn't show all mistakes and all the

240
00:16:00,870 --> 00:16:06,390
change designs and stuff and the way I'm

241
00:16:04,290 --> 00:16:09,000
making the videos now update every week

242
00:16:06,390 --> 00:16:12,000
you really get to follow how I go into

243
00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:14,550
the dance and how I try to dig myself

244
00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:16,860
out of them thanks so much for watching

245
00:16:14,550 --> 00:16:18,260
I'm editing these videos nowadays a

246
00:16:16,860 --> 00:16:21,930
little bit with shoot-from-the-hip

247
00:16:18,260 --> 00:16:24,209
attitude I hope you like it I hope

248
00:16:21,930 --> 00:16:25,770
they're some kind of creation have a

249
00:16:24,209 --> 00:16:27,250
great day everyone and see you on the

250
00:16:25,770 --> 00:16:31,659
next main - got that Wednesday
