Those who like to tinker with electronics come up with all the interesting new ideas of the self-made car from the engine from the washing machine. Therefore, we will dwell on only a few examples.
Emery
One of the most popular homemade from the engine of the washing machine (automatic or semi-automatic - not the essence is important) is an electric core.
The first step is to prepare the flange.Its necessity is due to the fact that the shaft from the motor has one diameter, and the hole of the grinding stone is different. The flange with one side will be pressed onto the motor shaft. The second side needs a thread to fix the circle. Most often, a metal tube 15-20 cm in length and 32 mm in diameter is used to make the flange.
Particular attention must be paid to threading.Its length should be greater than the thickness of the circle, approximately 2 times. It is also important to choose the right direction. The thread must be directed in the opposite direction from the direction of movement of the shaft. If the shaft rotates to the right side, the thread is cut to the left. And vice versa. This is done so that during the work the circle does not fly off. Moving in opposite directions, the circle will twist.
The second end of the flange (which is threadless)It is pressed onto the motor shaft. To do this, it must be heated with a blowtorch. To obtain a stronger connection, the joint is connected by bolts or welding.
On the edge of the threaded flange, tighten the nut as far as it will go. Next, put on the washer and the circle, which is fixed with a washer and nut on the other side. When everything is tightly twisted, the counter nut is wound.
The whole structure is fixed on the stand. Moreover, the mount must be very reliable and durable, so that the design does not move during operation. After that, the engine is connected to the network.
Lawn Mower
Popular self-made from the engine of the washing machine are lawn mowers.
As a basis, you can take the frame from the stroller ortrolley. If there are none, you can make a frame from metal corners. A metal sheet is attached to the finished frame, which will play the role of a platform. Front to the platform is attached a protective mesh. Tubes make pens. On top of it is put on a rubber casing.
The engine is mounted on the platform.In the center of it is prepared a hole for the shaft, to which the knife will be fastened. The motor is connected to the cable with a plug (or switch). For safety reasons, the plug with the outlet is located on the handle.
Feed chopper
The popularity of homemade from the engine of a washing machine with time only grows. In recent years, increasingly made food cutters. This also requires a drum.
4 holes are made in the walls of the drum.bolts. With their help, the structure will be attached to the support frame. On one side of the drum a hole is made for the shaft. On the other - to unload the finished feed. Knives used two. One is set to the bottom of the drum. He should throw food. Therefore, its shape should resemble a propeller. The second knife, sharpened on both sides, will be the main one. It is tilted towards the bottom.
So that the food does not fly apart, a lid is made. It is necessary to make a hole through which the raw materials will be supplied.
As you can see, homemade from the engine of the washing machine are widely used in the economy.
