Spring Breeze 1991

On the same day, Spring Breeze Academy of Sciences, Mechanical Laboratory.

On the swinging test bench was a black-painted sloppy steel structure. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a heavy-duty machinery chassis. Several people gathered around to watch.

Professor Mo, who was graying at the temples, carefully inspected the trial product in front of him like an old worker, and Yao Yuan, who was wearing work clothes, was by his side.

After checking back and forth for more than an hour, Professor Mo straightened up and said, "So, the conditions for mass production are basically met."

Yao Yuan nodded and said, "Yes, teacher. The more difficult point before was the suspension system. We introduced the Taituo heavy truck production line and a large number of related technologies, including Taituo's unique suspension system technology. After intensive research, the heavy-duty general machinery chassis The suspension issue has been resolved."

Zhan Chenggui said excitedly, "Academician Mo, the biggest feature of heavy-duty general-purpose mechanical chassis is that it can manufacture mechanical chassis ranging from 10 tons to 30 tons, including heavy-duty truck chassis. The overall machine developed by Mr. Yao The design technology makes the span very large."

"If it is changed to a crawler type, wouldn't it be possible to manufacture a tank chassis?" Professor Mo asked sharply.

The layman looks at the excitement and the insider looks at the doorway.

Before Yao Yuan proposed the overall design technology of the heavy machinery chassis, a large part of the reason was to find a reason that could convince Professor Mo, so that Yao Yuan could not only graduate smoothly, but also use his time to work freely.

Unexpectedly, going down step by step, we gathered two technical masters, Zhan Chenggui and Yuri, and dozens of technical experts from the Czech Republic and the Soviet Union, as well as the assistance of heavy-duty truck technology. Under the guidance of his technical research, such a short At that time, the heavy-duty general-purpose mechanical chassis was actually produced.

When Zhan Chenggui reported to him, he was still dubious.

So there was Professor Mo's inspection today.

Professor Mo saw the power of heavy-duty general-purpose mechanical chassis technology at a glance.

Generally speaking, the chassis used by different machines are different. Take the automobile industry as an example. It was not until the end of the first decade of the 21st century that Toyota and other automobile companies began to use common chassis technology, that is, based on a platform, developed From low-end to high-end models, this platform can be regarded as a chassis to a certain extent.You can arbitrarily add or subtract components to the chassis, and change the design to achieve different performance and functions.It is very, very easy to increase, decrease and change.

Before that, developing a new car required a redesign.

This is why after 2010, the speed of upgrading and remodeling of vehicle models by OEMs is getting faster and faster.

To put it bluntly, the technology developed by the mechanical laboratory of Chunfeng Academy of Sciences has turned the chassis design into a simple and convenient stacking block...

Increase the carrying capacity to 50 tons, isn't it just a tank chassis!

Yao Yuan nodded confidently, "As long as there is a suitable power system and transmission system, it is completely possible to develop a tank chassis. Teacher, in fact, we have super-heavy trucks for mines in our plan, with a load capacity of more than [-] tons. "

"Amazing." Professor Mo nodded without hesitation, "This technology is at the leading level in the world."

Yao Yuandao, "At present, only Ford Motor Company is conducting this research. In fact, if you look at it separately, each sub-technology is not a new technology, but after integration, it is a brand new technology. We have already started Work on patent applications can build a fortress of patented technology.”

"Your awareness of this aspect is very good. Many of our comrades don't have such an awareness. Some technologies were obviously developed by us first, but after they were put into commercial use, we found that the latecomers applied for patents first, and they had to pay patent royalties if they wanted to use them. "Professor Mo said regretfully.

Yao Yuan said, "Teacher, I plan to share the general mechanical chassis technology with the country for free."

Professor Mo was taken aback, "Free sharing?"

The other people around were anxious, even Zhan Chenggui, who was indifferent to fame and fortune, became anxious.How can technology that has cost a lot of money and manpower be shared for free?The most anxious one is of course Lin Wei, he knows best how much it cost to develop this technology.

Yao Yuan nodded with certainty, "Yes, Spring Breeze Academy of Sciences will select a group of machinery manufacturers as the targets of diffusion, and share them completely for free. Teacher, even if I don't share the domestic environment for free, there will be some in a short time. For imitators, I have no place to reason. Instead of responding passively, I might as well take the initiative and select a batch of high-quality factories to spread.”

Professor Mo is well aware of the domestic intellectual property environment. These days, there are no relevant laws and regulations, and no one takes patents seriously.

If a state-owned enterprise develops a technology, if other state-owned enterprises want to use it, then use it.This kind of thinking prevailed in the 90s and [-]s, but it will not work when applied to private enterprises.Precisely because of this kind of thinking, knowing that investment in the development of new technologies will be contributed sooner or later, so why do things that are laborious and not rewarded?

Everyone thinks this way, and the result is that everyone stays in place.

The technological competitiveness of state-owned enterprises is out of the question.

There is no way to share the general-purpose chassis technology. If it is not shared for free, Yao Yuan will not be able to earn a dime of patent royalties from domestic companies.

Yao Yuan said, "Another consideration is that the diffusion of technology will help improve the technical level of my country's machinery industry. Sooner or later we will go abroad and compete directly with foreign counterparts. Only when the overall level improves, can we have the confidence to compete with others."

Professor Mo nodded in relief, and said with emotion, "Xiao Yao, I read you right, good, good, good. Feel free to contact me if you have any problems. Your teacher has worked in the mechanical industry for most of his life, and he can still help you. talk."

Can academicians speak more powerfully than this?

With a good teacher, many things really can be very simple, and there are shortcuts to take.

Professor Mo chatted with Yuri. The former is a college student studying in the Soviet Union, and he is very proficient in Russian.The two discussed the suspension technology of the chassis.

Just as Yao Yuan was about to express his opinion, Zhang Mingliang trotted over to report, "Mr. Yao, Mayor Zhou is here."

"Zhou Liang?" Yao Yuan was surprised.

Zhang Mingliang smiled wryly in his heart, and since Mr. Yao dared to call the mayor by his name, he nodded repeatedly, "Yes, Mayor Zhou, he has already arrived, and he seems to be in a hurry."

Professor Mo also heard it, and he said, "Go ahead, you are the helm of the company, and you have more important things to do."

Yao Yuan understood the implication—don’t let the city government officials know that I’m here, entertainment should be your job as the helm of the enterprise.

Professor Mo has always been technology-oriented.

Yao Yuan nodded, and took Lin Wei and others out of the mechanical laboratory to meet Zhou Liang and his party.
