Simple Machines

November 16, 2009

This class is going to take How Apples Move
as a transportation project to the Public Event at Marshall University.
Each project is to have something that moves ant at least one simple machine.

Today they are working with simple machine sets.

Wheels and axles can be used to make a roller conveyor to move apples.

Wheels and axles can be used to make a vehicle to move the apple boxes.

Gear can be used in a windmill on the apple farm.

Pulleys can be used to make a advertising sign to sell apples.

Pneumatics can be used to press the apples.



Gears can be used to make a machine to stir apple sauce.
