My favorite was a Rossi .60 that I used on the old fashioned pattern birds, rear exhaust with a big honkin' tuned pipe that tunnelled under the bottom of the fuselage. That can, if there is room to do it right, make a serious contribution not only to the power, but the fuel economy. My other favorites were the high end OS engines, both 2 stroke and 4 stroke. OS made (makes?) some very nice power plants. Been out of that for about 65 years now, so I am not up to date on who makes what. I went from those 2 strokes, to bigger ones on go karts back in the day. My most ugly ever kart was an old gopher that I'd hung a Pacific Marine Bilge pump on swing mounts, with a pair of straight pipes about 20 long. It was a hard bearing engine based on the 1937 J-E outboard where it was about a 10 horse. I tossed the lower two rings blocked the groves, then found a narrower, slightly smaller ring for the top ring and used it for a groove stuffer holding a .025 thick steel ring. It spun pretty freely then. Bored out the intake passage to the center of the crank which was used as a rotary intake put an overgrown Carter carb on it with a full 1 throttle bore. Threw away the flywheel and put a Bendix-Scintella button magnet magneto on it. With 18 teeth on the crankshaft 64 or so on the axle, it could make north of 110 mph on the black hills blacktop back roads running on gas, but when I took it racing I usually had booze and castor oil in the left, 2 gallon tank. Water in an identical tank on the right side and a small water pump belted off the axle circulated the water thru a Nash heater core under the steering loop, open at the bottom so air could flow thru. That was an unusual hard bearing engine, the rollers in the con rods weren't caged, and the rod caps were removable so one could fit bigger rollers in much the same way we now fit ball screw balls. The part line was very ragged as the rod was made in one piece with the bolt bosses preformed, and then fractured at the cap boss. When the cap was reinstalled, the fractured grain assured perfect alignment and the fracture line could not be seen or felt in the rod bore. But at the end of the racing night it was not competitive because while it could out torque anything on the track digging out of the corners, the deflector head pistons generally quit working well at around 7 grand. But at 5500-6500, only one guy could out dig me coming off a corner and he had 3 West Bend 700's (illegally big by the rules then) lined up across the rear of his machine. He couldn't do it with 3 West Bend 580's on it though, but those came alive at about the same point my bilge pump quit, so he passed me easily halfway down the straight, burned into the corner where I would make up 30 feet (he couldn't drive) but it wasn't enough. But it was fun while it lasted. ;-) And a very Merry Christmas and a blessed and prosperous New Years to you, your family and all of us here on the LinuxCNC list.

I assume there is a long belt that goes all the way around the drum for a washer or dryer and there is no gearbox. My motor ran very quietly on the bench. I have cut the arms off and turned the stubs down to the motor's OD, so it looks like a proper motor now. I just need to figure out what to use it on.

[Emc-users] 3 phase washing machine motor
Why a gearbox? The shaft is about 20mm OD The drum is about 450 OD So a ratio of 20/450 gives a drum speed of ~ 755RPM using a single belt. The usual drum speed-high is about 800RPM New machines have drum speeds of 1000RPM Regards Roland On 25 December 2014 at 02:53, Gregg Eshelman g_ala...@yahoo.com wrote: On 12/24/2014 11:42 AM, Robert Ash wrote: I have a good relationship with a salvage man here and would like to see an image of this motor. I may have missed it if posted before. If I can recognize it I can pull one for my own education. I get treadmill motors with drives as well as other drive train parts from him very reasonably. My brain is still going *doink* over the concept of a 17,000 RPM motor in a washing machine. The motor and gearbox would need to have some major acoustic engineering to not drive all the cats and dogs crazy. --- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. http://www.avast.com -- Dive into the World of Parallel Programming!

I've seen those used for wind generators and even a couple directly coupled to the screws on a knee mill. Stuck up above the table so that would limit work from hanging off the table on the front and one end. --- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. http://www.avast.com -- Dive into the World of Parallel Programming!
