The skew in the rotor performs a similar function to helical cut gears. Smooths out the torque since the magnetic fields engage somewhat gradually.
@samz80232 жыл бұрын
That’s right. The skew makes the cogging torque smoother. (Reducing the rotating steps that you feel)

I skim the 4-5 star reviews then go straight to the 1-2 star and finish with a few 3 star. 1-2 star taken together can indicate design flaws or general quality issues. Though only after filtering for the people that ordered the wrong product or color and their world collapsed. "This pepper grinder is fantastic but took an extra day to arrive and was dented when I used it as a jack stand for my truck, one star!" 3-4 stars seem to be the most confused, often the essay portion seems to describe 1-2 star quality. "I would have given 5 stars but it burst into flames after only 4 uses so I knocked a star off. Would have rated only 3 stars but they sent be a replacement for the cost of shipping."

Good work on the 'missing instructions' excuse. That's brilliant because the instructions say, "Make sure you get a distinct BURR on the blade edge before moving from step 1 to step 2". So if you'd found the instructions your key complain would have been ruined. Gotta keep the information accurate! PS: The 3-step version from Cambodian Tired is $65 and has rotating discs vs. reciprocating pads. If you're a lazy non-chef, who can't be bothered to get a good knife and sharpen it properly, this is a handy product.

Proper knife sharpening is an art, an art that was once mastered by most men. Nowadays most men would not have a clue and look for gadgets to do this job as a solution - I don't mean you AvE, I am sure you know how to sharpen just about anything by hand. The way I sharpen my kitchen knives is on my drillpress using small 5" medium grit wheel on half speed. Having the wheel horizontal gives you more control, I use the sides of the wheel. Now I know the sides of a grinding wheel is not supposed to be used as it reduces the thickness of it and can weaken it to the point where it disintegrates, however I have been using the same wheel for 30 years as I hardly touch the wheel whilst sharpening so wear has been minimal. I can sharpen about about a dozen knives in about 5 minutes and I am removing no more material on the knives than I would on sharpening stones by hand which would take me half an hour. The operation gives the knives a slightly serrated finish which aids in cutting through food stuffs. There is a saying that a dull knife is more likely to cut you than a sharp knife, that is true but only up to a point. I would never put razor sharp knives in my kitchen or give them to most people, I only finish my personal knives like that and sometimes I might even give myself a small accidental cut if I am not paying attention, all it takes is a small tap. Most of my cutting tools are that sharp, knives, axes, machetes. Then then there are some cutting tools that I keep only moderately sharp. Last year a friend of mine asked me to sharpen his hunting knife, I could see the attempts at this by him and his friends, all they did was make it blunter and scratch it. It was only some piece of chinese junk but having nothing better to do I gave it the royal treatment including a mirror finish to the blade. When I returned it to him and he realized how sharp it was his eyes turned into that of an owl and he started handling it like some hot potato. He asked me how long it had taken me to sharpen it expecting the answer to be I suppose an hour. I told him 10 minutes which was true - grind, stone and polish to the blade and then the edge by hand. Is sharpening by hand hard? No its easy but it does take an interest and investment in time to become proficient at it.

Mostly for the newbies and prep cooks and whatnot, who can't use a steel properly without having to look for their fingers on the ground afterwards. I hated it. It was a cheap version though, maybe cost about $15. Made the knives about as sharp as the edge of a brick.

6:02 I immediately became a Patron. To be completely honest I've never used Patreon or really cared all that much, but much respect for being honest and saying what we all know to be the case: ads are garbage. I work in marketing, and quite a bit of what I do is in "shill marketing" on sites like KZfaq and Instagram and frankly it's garbage too. No better than ads. I hate it, the company I work for hates it, but it makes sales, and we're not in the business of fixing that, we're in the business of selling our product. Don't hate the player, hate the game.... and all that. We try to give our product out to lots of "influencers" and tell them to do honest reviews because we know our product is solid and we don't need to pussyfoot about things, but to be frank, even if you give someone something free, that's no guarantee that any video or review will ever actually come out. Most of the time, these affiliate links or kickbacks are less about making a positive review than about making a review at all. If you know you're gonna get money from it after the fact.... well you're a lot more likely to get around to publishing the damn review. Doesn't hurt that in the case of affiliate sales, from a company's perspective, you're only shelling out the bucks when you're also raking in the bucks. A huge strain put on us marketing guys is proving our "return on investment" and you'd be hard pressed to find a better proof of ROI than that. Anyway, all that is to say that many of us in marketing see our job as: we have a good product. A better product than the other guys. You would actually be better off buying our product than theirs. BUT.... many times, the more honestly we try to convey that message, the more it gets ignored. Most of the time we have to hit you over the head with our product for you to even notice it. And that's not your fault, we live in a world where everybody is shouting at you all the time. It's a broken system and we're just playing along.

The unit you have has oscillating hones and only 2 stage. The other unit you had on the paperwork is a 3 stage. It uses rotating discs to sharpen. This 3 stage unit is impressive. I have had mine for 6 or more years. When you sharpen with the first 2 stages they grind the knife edge to 2 different angles and set the angle of the edge. The last stage is a stropping wheel and finely polishes the edge. I can tell you this. When your are done sharpening a knife with the 3 stager you CAN literally shave with it. After my initial round of sharpening all my knives the first time after purchasing it, my arms were hairless. It does take some time to master the process but it does work well.

I believe the angle in the rotor bars is to prevent the entirety of the rotor bar from passing the electrical neutral plane at once. As the conductor passes through the ENP it is parallel with the magnetic lines of flux and therefore the flux isn't cutting the conductor, meaning it doesn't induce a voltage.

Another knife edge fucky upper device. I wrote an article for a German magazine for chefs a few years ago. I compared sharpening your knife with a stone, special knife sharpening tools, slow water grinders and those "easy sharpening" devices. The later always fuck up the blade of the knife. You can see it on a microscope. Also they enforce an angle to the knife that might simply be wrong. I got blades sharpened only on one site, i got some for meat with a compound grind, i got hollow grind, thin grinds....... So even if they don't murder the blade by chipping it, they mess up the angle of the grind.

Honestly, I'll buy cheap knifes and sharpeners. Those barely functioning people I've worked with couldn't figure out a butchers steel, or stone, and can't reliably do anything beyond 3 steps in setting a plate. Fine dining is one thing, average neighborhood sit-down $10 entree is a whole different batch. "Why are you letting the knifes bang around in the dishwasher"? ".....I dunno"

“Single phase” skewed rotor bars allows the bars to enter magnetic flux of one tooth of the stater before leaving the flux of the tooth next to it. Making a more constant torque and have less vibration. That’s what I read here in my Richard j. Fowler Electricity principles and applications 8th edition. Help-full for a shaded pole stater I think.
@idahospud9386 жыл бұрын
Yup that's correct. It's to maintain consistent torque, as opposed to having a series of step-changes as a different set of rotor conductors come into play.
@joekoncovy56246 жыл бұрын
It's actually to smooth out torque pulsations caused as the rotor field cuts across the stator field. If the rotor bars are parallel with the stator slots it cause vibration from the abrupt change in the magnetic field. Think of driving your car over a ditch head on at 90 deg vs taking it a an angle. All modern three phase and single phase motorss have skewed bars. It does increase the slip slightly but much lower 2X line frequency.

I have the model that includes the grinding wheels. I find that using those is important to get the bevel set on the knife so it matches the honing stones. I agree that it is tricky to use. Especially to sharpen the tips, but it works.

By the time you buy something like this you may as well get a cheapo harbor freight mini belt sander and some belts for knife sharpening that include a leather strop belt. Then make some wood blocks that you can rest the knife on and set your angle. End up spending about the same amount and end up with fresh razor blades instead of the used ones your wife shaved her legs with and left rusting on the side of the tub for a couple weeks.

I used to work for McGill, we made those sort of bearings (among other types). specifically, I ran a centerless plunge grinder making those rollers. I also occasionally ran a through feed centerless for straight rollers, and sometimes a single station to grind the races on cam follower inner studs. It was a very interesting job... lots of gray-beard voodoo involved for a machine as technically simple as they are. That's a high dollar bearing you have there.

We have a different model (EdgeSelect 15), and the instructions are pretty specific about how to use it. You're supposed to use one pair of slots the first time for a particular knife to get it to the 15 degree edge, but I think that's what the model shown doesn't do at all. The remaining two pairs of slots are for re-sharpening. Each pair, you're supposed to use the same amount each side, to keep it symmetric, with one pair being for fine sharpening, the other for honing. If you don't follow the directions, of course you're going to have a gnarly edge. You could do the same with stones, using them wrong and then saying they're faulty. I still use a steel most of the time, just to keep the edges, but the electric sharpener did a great job, with me actually following directions. It was a lot faster than using stones, and the edges are more consistent than I could get them.

I've sharpened kitchen, work, camping, and fun knives for years on stones, picked up a Worksharp last year, Ken Onion version, and it's quite a good sharpener. It'll roll the edge on coarser grits, but you work your way down and have an edge that's shave-worthy. And most of it's built pretty well, couple plastic pieces seem a little light but have held up well, probably intended to be replaceable. Haven't had a look inside as I'm a fan of the way that it just works.

The angles on the rotor shaft make the transitions of the slots smoother. This makes the invovled waveforms smoother as well. The result is less THD on the motor/generator output. It also helps with the torque and reduces cogging. I don't remember what is the trade off. There must be something

I got a very similar machine from my father in laws house (cleaning it out after they passed away). It was probably built in the 70's or 80's, and had an extra stage under a plastic cover on the left side, in addition to the sharpening and honing stages. I use it mainly for two knives, the ones we use most often, and probably 2-3 times a year for 5-10 minutes a stretch. It was free, so I didn't overpay, it does work for sharpening our knives, so no real complaints there, and since it runs 5-10 minutes at a stretch and has probably done so since the 80's (maybe 70's) I'd say it works pretty good. On the other hand, I have a vitamin blender after I finally broke down and paid way more than any human should, but it replaced the multiple Ninja and Nutribullets that I wore out. It is used daily and, as you video attested, is skookum as hell.

this rotor is known as squirrel-cage rotor Normally, the conductors are in a nearly straight line, but for high torque applications the rotor is skewed, which increases the angle of the conductors. now some curiosities. to correct this power factor we could use a capacitor. here the calculations (for single phase of course) calculated power factor PF = P(W) / (V(V) × I(A)) PF =48W/(120X1) PF=0.4 C(F) = Q(VAR) / (2πf(Hz)×V(V)2) S(VA)| = V(V) × I(A) S = 120v x 1A=120VA Q(VAR) = √(|S(VA)|2 - P(W)2) Q=√|120VA|^2-|48W|^2 =~110VAR C(F) = Q(VAR) / (2πf(Hz)×V^2 2π60=~377 C(F)=110/(377X14400)=20,26e-6(uF) SO FOR CORRECT THIS TERRIBLE POWER FACTOR WE NEED A CAPACITOR OF ~20uF IN PARALLEL WHITH THE MOTOR

The hangulation on the magnetic conductors is for smooth rotation of the motor. Its like the piston movement in an engine. When the piston is at the bottom of the stroke, its rod rotates on the piston, gradually accelerating the piston to top stroke. The tip of the magnetic pad hits the magnetic field and eases the ingress in the magnetic relationship with the AC wave form.
