super plane treasurer

() After two days of tangled waiting, the special processing equipment that Li Mo handed over to two machinery manufacturing factories were finally completed, and he asked someone to move them to a specially vacated office in the Red Star Stationery Factory.

Counting the cost of customization and material processing, the modification price of such an automatic pencil machine is about 7000 yuan, accounting for about one-tenth of the price of an automatic pencil making machine.

If compared with the millions of machines in the Plane Mall, it is even cheaper.

But cheapness is not the goal, the important thing is whether you can make what you want.

Under the watchful eyes of Chu Shanhu and several bewildered deputy factory managers, Li Mo sat in front of this loom-like machine, and also stared nervously at the operation manual in his mind.

Having a machine is only the first step, and the more important step is how to use this strange-shaped guy to manufacture and process the key parts of the mechanical pencil, especially the mechanical refill, and then assemble them together.

"buzz"

As Li Mo pressed the start button, the whole machine began to hum.

Compared with the traditional five-kilowatt automatic pencil machine, this modified pencil machine, which has been specially processed and added some cutting parts, has a power of about ten kilowatts, which is twice that of ordinary machines.

Although the power consumption is much higher than before, once successful, the value it can create will be dozens or even hundreds of times that of the past.

At this time, Li Mo's mood was no less than the excitement when Watt invented the steam engine.

"Fuck-"

"Squeak - squeak"

"Ka-deng-"

After trying to suppress his emotions, Li Mo patiently began to operate, using this new tool to polish and assemble the mechanical refill, match the pen holder, and inlay the picks and other parts that he could not explain the function of himself...

The factory directors next to him couldn't help being dazed when they watched Li Mo's every move. This was completely different from the mechanical pencil assembly method they were familiar with before. Not only did they have to assemble the ready-made parts, they even had to cut and polish the parts on site.

"No...it's the other way around...it doesn't seem to be the case..."

Staring at the mechanical pencil assembly drawing in his mind, Li Mo repeatedly tried how to use this machine to fit the parts in place, just like when he assembled toy racing cars when he was a child.

It lasted for more than half an hour. Li Mo, who had never touched an automatic pencil machine before, gradually mastered the functions of each area of ​​the whole machine. Reveal the true face of Mount Lushan.

"Huh~ Fortunately, I haven't forgotten all about the metalworking internship..."

After another half an hour, Li Mo finally assembled his first semi-automatic mechanical pencil according to the instructions in his mind.

Probably because it was born by hand, and he didn't have much experience in mechanical operation, the initial product in Li Mo's hand was still a little rough, and some places didn't fit well.

But the basic functions should be able to play out.

Although it took a lot of time for this pen to be born from Li Mo's hands, if it is practiced, a skilled worker can make about ten pens in batches within 5 minutes.

"Crack, click..."

Except for the lead spit button on the top, there are three gears on the side of the cap of this mechanical pencil, similar to the dpi shift button on a gaming mouse, which can be used between "straight line drawing", "curve drawing" and "zi you drawing". Switch between them arbitrarily.

After repeatedly pressing the function switching button several times, Li Mo raised his head and said to the deputy factory director Chang Hanming who was still in a daze, "Please help Chang Hanming to find a piece of paper, and find some compasses and rulers."

In his heart, he continued to say another sentence. Next, it was time to witness the miracle again.

"Huh? Oh, okay..."

Hearing this, Chang Hanming, who still couldn't figure out what kind of gimmick the young boss was planning, hurried out of the office, returned to his room, and searched for what Li Mo needed.

After all, it is a stationery factory, and soon, a stack of professional drawing white paper, brand-new rulers and compasses and other items were placed in front of Li Mo.

"The first drawing experiment with a semi-automatic mechanical pencil, straight line drawing"

Silently muttering in his heart, Li Mo switched the function of the mechanical pencil to the straight line mode.

Immediately, two needle-like objects protrude from the two fine holes near the nib, forming a three-point layout together with the refill. In addition, a side sliding pick is stuck between Li Mo's middle finger and ring finger, and the pencil is held in a certain position. It is fixed on the right hand in a special way.

If you are drawing other graphics, this paddle that can also slide up and down needs to be fixed between the other two fingers—the index finger and middle finger, or the little finger and ring finger.

In addition, there are nearly ten needle-shaped holes of different thicknesses at the port of the mechanical pencil case, like a miniature hornet's nest. As the functions are switched, different auxiliary needles will protrude from it.

Even though he personally built this pencil, but at this time Li Mo was asked to explain when and where these needles were placed, and he couldn't explain it at all, as if it was natural after the pen was built. Appeared.

According to the gesture requirements in the instruction manual, Li Mo moved his little finger slightly outward while holding the pen, and then drew a line on the white paper with a mechanical pencil.

As if guided by two needles with smooth tops, Li Mo felt that besides himself, there were two other external forces controlling the direction of the pen tip during the process of drawing this straight line, as if following a track slide.

At the end of this line, Li Mo deliberately drew a curved line, but due to the influence of the pick stuck between the ring finger of the middle finger, he finally drew a broken line unnaturally.

However, at places different from the original straight line path, due to the two auxiliary needles, the lead core failed to touch the paper surface, so no other traces were left, and the painting needed to be replenished.

Then Li Mo took a transparent plastic ruler and drew along a straight line.

Except for the beginning and the corner, the line drawn by Li Mo is accurate and fits perfectly with the ruler.

In Li Mo's opinion, the only flaw in the drawing is also because the initial product he made was too rough.

Faced with such a scene, even though Li Mo didn't explain anything, the chief and deputy directors who were technical workers next to him also understood it. At this moment, Qiqi stood there with his mouth slightly open, so shocked that he couldn't say anything Come on.

This... isn't my eyes dazzled?

With a pencil that doesn't look very good, actually draw a standard straight line? !

Ignoring the horror of these conservatives, Li Mo continued to test another important function of the mechanical pencil, drawing arcs from different angles.

Due to cost and equipment limitations, the current most primitive mechanical pencil can only draw arcs with an angle of ten degrees, but this basically includes the commonly used arc angles, which is more than enough for non-precision drawing, and because there are straight lines Functionally assisted, so the radius of the arc is not a limitation.

What's more, those who need to accurately draw various wonderful angles are not within the scope of Li Mo's target customers.

"God... God..."

Seeing that Li Mo could draw a standard straight line and arc at will without using any equipment, Chang Hanming and several other deputy directors were amazed - this technology is more than enough to win the National Technology Progress Award!
