Chapter 621 Small changes to carrying equipment
In the Chief Engineer's Office of the No. 3 Factory, Gao Zhendong sat in front of the computer with a few things in front of him while he was replying to emails.
The email was sent from Professor Fang, discussing work related to the protective portable system.
These things are generally not complicated and do not involve too advanced technical issues. They can be explained clearly in the email.
The few things placed in front of him were the helmet and protective carrying equipment samples sent by Professor Fang, as well as an alumina ceramic bulletproof insert.
The email he is writing now is exactly some of his feelings after inspecting this batch of equipment. Of course, there is no need to inspect the bulletproof insert plate. That thing mainly acts as a counterweight in the process.
"Professor Fang..."
"... Regarding the helmet, I have learned about its appearance and inspection data, and there is nothing wrong with it. There is only one additional suggestion. The helmet should be equipped with a white or jungle camouflage double-sided cloth helmet cover. In addition to the helmet body, there are three colors. It can adapt to a variety of environments and is conducive to covert operations of our soldiers in the above-mentioned environments.”
The helmet is almost as expected. It weighs 1.2kg and can withstand the impact of 7.62*25 pistol bullets. It can also prevent shell fragments. As for the frontal impact of rifle bullets, you don’t have to think too much. This thing can’t bear it. But for oblique bullets, there is a certain chance of ricocheting.
As for the saying that the cervical vertebrae will be broken while holding the bullet, just listen to it, the bullet does not have that much kinetic energy. This is true even if the helmet straps are tightened.
Therefore, Gao Zhendong has no opinion on the helmet itself, he just has some thoughts on the appearance.
Wearing multiple helmet covers seems to be a bit too much at this stage, but it is still possible to wear one type of helmet. This reminds Gao Zhendong of the double-sided jacket he had when he was a child, and this method can be used just right.
As for why he chose these two colors, well, because they look good.
But in this way, if the soldiers want to do what Gao Zhendong knew in his previous life, it is not so convenient to use a helmet to go from drinking water to cooking to peeing. They have to get the helmet cover. After weighing it for a long time, Gao Zhendong felt that this The inconvenience is worth it, so add it.
"...For protective carrying equipment, I personally recommend not using any zippers as a means of connection or closure. Instead, more reliable methods such as plastic adhesive tapes and buckles should be used to complete the above functions."
Zippers are a good thing for ordinary people. They are strong and reliable, beautiful and durable, have a large connecting area, are lightweight and convenient, can adapt to many shapes, and have good closing effects.
However, everything is afraid of it. Regarding the protective carrying system, the first advantage above is completely gone. This thing is the most unreliable and weakest. To put it harshly, you can just find a hemp rope and tie it to it. Better than that.
Our submachine gun ammunition hangers are tied with ropes, but in Gao Zhendong's previous life, people knew that this stuff here could sell out of stock.
It’s one thing to say that a zipper is not strong. There are quite a few things that can break, such as stitching, sprocket teeth, sliders, pull handles... problems can happen anywhere, and there are many hidden dangers. It's hard to repair and hard to replace.
And unlike plastic adhesive tapes, which can lose a little hair or hooks, it’s fine. A characteristic of zippers is that if any part is broken, the thing is basically useless, even if a double-headed zipper is used. , it is only a slight improvement, there is no difference in essence.
Gao Zhendong can handle integrated circuits, but he can't handle such a difficult task as making zippers reliable. Let alone him, no one in this industry will be able to handle it well in the future, because these problems are all inherited from the mother's womb. Come.
At this time, Gao Zhendong deeply realized, holy shit, maybe the ball in the ballpoint pen is really an industrial pearl?
Maybe zippers are considered a high-end product these days, and Professor Fang, who strongly wants to make protective carrying equipment good and beautiful, is more unrestrained in the use of zippers. They are everywhere. At first glance, this thing doesn’t look like a carrying vest, but more like a carrying vest. Like a photography vest.
So Gao Zhendong quickly stopped this method. If he did this, this thing would be completely useless.
"...At the same time, it is recommended not to arrange pendants and accessories in the left hem area. Most of the ground tactical movements of our soldiers are supported by the left half of the body. There are too many other items here, which may affect the execution of tactical movements..."
This is a solid practical trick or experience. With Professor Fang's current experience, he cannot take this issue into consideration, so there are a lot of bits and pieces here. Gao Zhendong's evaluation of this is - awesome.
If a piece of protective carrying equipment requires the entire army to change its tactical movements, then this thing is not successfully designed. Whether those tactical movements are reasonable or outdated is another level of issue.
"...the main connection of the carrying device is on the back and is a zipper. This design is not reasonable and will cause the individual soldier to be unable to put on and take off the carrying device smoothly, and it is extremely easy to be damaged. At the same time, it will affect the carrying of other items on the back. This position should be The connection is changed to one or both sides of the armpit, and a larger area of reflected plastic adhesive tape is used for bonding..."
It is estimated that the magazine needs to be hung on the chest. It is not easy to put on and take off like clothes here. Professor Fang directly made a reverse operation. It cannot be done from the front, right? Hey, I'll put it on the back.
The function of putting it on the back is not impossible, but in terms of operational convenience, it is basically difficult for one person to put it on and take off. I have to say that Professor Fang’s skills are still a bit strange.
At the same time, another problem is that no matter how mechanized we are, we will still march, and we have to carry things on our backs, such as quilts, maybe three 61 fire sticks, or other things.
This design means that once a soldier is injured or needs to temporarily take off the carrying device under other circumstances, the thing cannot be taken off without removing the things on the back, which is very slow in actual combat situations.
For soldiers, bending down and tightening the back to exert force are common actions. This thing opens the zipper on the back. It is basically certain that there is a high probability that the zipper will be stretched by the tight muscles in the back.
So this thing must be changed, and Gao Zhendong didn't even say the word "suggestion", just "should". No matter what, you have to change this thing for me.
Apart from these problems, everything else is generally good. Indicators such as materials, durability, items that can be accommodated, and ease of access are all within a good range.
In general, in Gao Zhendong's view, it can be used after modification. This kind of thing cannot meet everyone's requirements and be liked by everyone. To put it bluntly, even if it is banknotes, money is different. There are people who are like dung. So as long as it can meet the requirements of most people, basically this thing can be used. If there are some minor problems, or things that are not good enough for a few people, then you have to overcome them yourself.
After writing the email, Gao Zhendong checked it carefully again and confirmed that there were no problems with the content and wording before encrypting the email and sending it out.
The former is to ensure the performance of the equipment. As for the latter, Professor Fang is considered an old comrade at Gao Zhendong's age. He still needs to pay attention to his tone and not be too harsh or inhumane.
Thirty minutes later, Professor Fang took the printed copy of the email sent by the comrades in the confidential office of the school. While reading it, he patted his thighs and even started patting his head when he saw some places.
"Professor Gao's suggestion is good! Good!"
"Well...this place is really not well thought out..."
"Hey! Why didn't I think of this?"
"Professor Gao really came from the battlefield, these details are so spot on..."
"Silly! Silly! I'm simply stupid! How could this thing be done like this! It's a joke."
"Oops! This is a big mistake! Fortunately, Professor Gao!"
"..."
After reading Gao Zhendong's email from beginning to end, Professor Fang did not have any dissatisfaction, but was very happy. After Professor Gao checked and filled in the gaps, this thing was finally ready for trial production in small batches and put into trial use.
He raised his head and called his students.
"Xiao Zhang! Xiao Luo! Call the students from the research group! Let's change the final version!"
The protective portable system research team of Beijing University of Technology soon continued to be busy.
Gao Zhendong, who had put aside his worries, rode home after get off work.
Halfway through, a jeep stopped beside him with a "squeak" sound.
Gao Zhendong stopped the car and turned around to see Wang Dezhu's big head sticking out of the car window.
"Old platoon leader!"
Gao Zhendong was happy when he saw him. Counting from the last time we had dinner together, he hadn't seen him for a month, and he was still thinking strangely.
"Big Lao Wang! What are you busy with? How about Xiaomei and 601?"
"It's all good, it's all good. Xiaomei also said that she wants to go to your house to get some sweets to eat, haha."
"Call her here, Xiao'e is also talking about her. Are you on a mission?"
Although as the deputy director of the Beijing Police Station, Wang Dezhu is also a serious cadre, but when it comes to getting in and out of a car, that is not enough. So seeing him in the car was probably because he had a mission.
Speaking of this, Wang Dezhu looked happy: "Yes, we arrested someone."
He didn't say who he had arrested. He just gave up his body and showed Gao Zhendong the prisoner who was controlled by him and another comrade in the middle seat.
It's not a big deal for Gao Zhendong to take a look at this piece of shit. Since the last time he helped Gao Zhendong publish the "Multi-purpose Talent Skills Manual", Wang Dezhu has already realized the importance of Gao Zhendong in the eyes of some units.
Gao Zhendong took a closer look and saw that the thing caught in the middle was crying and could not open its eyes, but it was conscious but not very energetic.
"Did you catch a heavy smoker?" Gao Zhendong laughed.
This man's appearance really fits the characteristics of the person who did this.
Wang Dezhu smiled and said: "No, no."
"Then why does it look like a bird?" Gao Zhendong asked in surprise.
