Homemade from the engine of the washing machine: grinding, lathe machines, lawn mower, Feed cutter, concrete mixer, and other homemade

In masterovitogo host is no such thing as trash. Either the failed unit or equipment, - is at least deferred benefit. Today HouseChief.ru edition will talk about how to use the mind, some of the old units of washing machines. lawn mower, circular saw, Concrete mixer, brazier, smokehouse- this is an incomplete list of useful DIY from the engine and from the drum washing machine, Which describe in detail in this review. Waiting for you step by step photo and video workshops from the most simple to implement, but useful ideas on how to make a homemade motor of a washing machine.

Motor types of washing machines

We all know that the drum washing machine the engine is started. Typically, the drum acceleration using common belt drive. Among the advantages of this method is often called softer drum stroke, Due to the natural depreciation. In addition, belt replacement takes a maximum of 20 minutes, and is not expensive.

Each motor type has advantages and disadvantages, and the strengths and weaknesses. Consider the three main types of features.

Asynchronous

In such a motor two working units - a fixed stator and rotor causes rotation of the drum. In this case the motor rotation speed can reach 2800 rpm.

The weak point of these engines - reducing torque. Because of this, the drum begins to literally "walk-shake" and sway.

Note! In modern models of two-phase motors are not used, starting with the 2000s they were replaced by three-phase asynchronous motors with variable frequency speed.

The advantages of asynchronous motors:

Among the major shortcomings:

Such engines are often used in low-cost models, not burdened by "smart" electronics.

The commutator motor

Today collector engines almost completely replaced asynchronous. Almost 90 percent of all household washing machines are equipped with just this type of engine.

This is not surprising, because such motors are more versatile, they can be used with either AC or DC.

Furthermore, special brushes for contact with the motor rotor (usually two) are provided in the structure. They must be replaced periodically, as they are worn down to the reservoir.

collector-type engine has a number of advantages:

Among the disadvantages are the following:

"Compound collector and brushes is very sensitive. And when excessive friction brushes may occur overheated and delamination lamella collector of the insulator. In addition, in the windings of the rotor or the stator may interturn short circuit. This results in arcing or weakening the magnetic field. In the latter case, the rotor and the drum does not revolve completely. "

Modern engines with direct drive

For washing machines of the new generation used motors that operate without a belt drive. In such engines familiar to us ribbed replaces a special clutch that connects the rotor shaft directly to the drum axis without a belt.

In a direct drive structure includes an inverter brushless motor, wherein the rotational frequency is set by electromagnetic waves. It is able to determine the load of laundry to be washed, and depending on it to change the power consumption.

This technology is considered one of the best drives of the type used by the leading manufacturers of washing machines, such as Haier, Bosch, AEG, Samsung and Whirpool.

Motors of this type have a number of advantages:

These engines significantly increase the total cost of home appliances. This is due primarily to the complicated wiring of the engine control system.

What can be done from an old washing machine

Homemade from engine washing machines often replace the tools, the purchase of which the farm is not practical due to their high cost. Most often it is essential for all master devices: emery, Grinder, mixer, oscillator, lathe. Sometimes because engines from stiralok collect oschipyvatel for chickens or chopper feed.

How to make a grinder or the winepress of the motor of the washing machine

If you do not know where the use of motor washing machine- make a grinding machine. This is one of the easiest "rework" of the engine stiralki. The biggest problem in the assembly Grinders - provide a good, stable fixing grindstone onto the motor shaft, use a special flange often.

Let us consider in detail all the stages of work:

Illustration	Description of the action
	For jobs we will need from washing machine motor 180 V, 1400 rpm. should not choose too powerful engine. The first stage - the wire insulation.
	Mark up the grinding wheel under the adapter. And for fixing the hub you must use a washer and a nut with threads directed in the opposite direction to the rotation of the shaft. Otherwise, it will spin up and at the first start grindstone fly off.
	Cut metal angles, they can be cut from sheets 8 mm. With the help of the motor bolted to the frame.
	Be careful to assemble all the elements of the grinding disc and a test run.
	The next stage of painting and welding to the base
	At the completion of registration of the abrasive surface. Easier to use for these purposes the double sided tape. The same principle can be made with their own hands the winepress of the washing machine.

"If you need to change the direction of rotation of the grinding machine of the washing machine, for asynchronous motors is enough to perform switching of the corresponding windings. If you do not have the starting coil, then at the push of a stone in the right side of the device will work on their own. "

Lathe for wood

This homemade most difficult to cook the right frame for the base. The lathe must necessarily have a stable base. The frame may be made of profiles and parts, and other readily available materials. Most importantly, the motor axis is parallel to the support structure is exposed.

Motor asynchronous in such models, typically two-speed, from 400 to 3000 rpm.

Perosemnaya machine of washing machines with their own hands

This machine is easy to carry out for you "all the dirty work." She would do well with time-consuming and physically challenging for plucking chickens.

Illustration	Description of the action
	Take the shaft from an old washing machine, moonlight thread. On sandpaper make neat slices under the ribbed.
	In our case fit ribbed by washing machine "Indesit" with vertical loading.
	Adapter cut out from the old steering finger of UAZ. Thread just went.
	To use a clip from the cap of the centrifuge from the old semi-automatic washing machine "Siberia".
	For fixing our motor assemble frame. Stained welds "ears".
	Pump "sadim" on sealant.
	On the reverse side set ribbed.
	Check the belt drive our unit.
	Connecting board with tachosensor. Winding connected in series with the reservoir to anchor. If you connect is not correct, will twist your motor in the other direction. Fasten the control unit under the tabletop.
	fasten on screws bowl for loading of carcasses, equipped with rubber pins.
	We laid on top of the bottom perosomnoy machine and fasten cap on the screws.

Such a machine to cope with the boiler plucking chickens and quails. about 120 rubber "fingers", a diameter of 8 mm were used for fabrication.

lawn mower

lawn mower It is another wonderful way where you can use the motor from a washing machine and give it a second life. By analogy with any device that is most difficult to produce a convenient frame to which it was possible to stably fasten the motor. The second most important task - to come up with a cover to protect the motor from dust and leavesAnd a man from cuts.

Sometimes, as a basis for taking the frame of the carriage or carts. Next, a frame is welded onto the metal sheet. On top of the platform is fastened cover, front and rear bumper fit special. It can be either plastic or rubber and metal.

It remains to carry out a test run. Do not forget that before embarking on the work it is important to check the correct connection of all the elements and insulation!

Feed cutter

But for making Feed cutter in the business will not only motor from stiralki, but also a drum. However, it should initially choose top-loading model. However, if you do not find such suitable and conventional drum.

Illustration	Description of the action
	To begin, read "stuffing." Motor 1.1 KW at 1000 revolutions. reducer, capacitor worth 25 microfarads.
	The drum is made from a washing machine mounted on the crossbar. To enhance the effect of the grater holes slightly expand outward.
	It runs very easily, with a single click.
	The casing is made of sheet metal.
	Provided clamp to hold the beets, or juicy products.

Important! If you are using a tank of washing machines and dryers, make sure that the blades at work did not touch the bottom and sides of the container!

How to turn the engine from an old washing machine in the generator

For the manufacture of home-made generator will have to seek help from a professional turner. After the purchase neodymium magnetsOn the engine core will need to carve grooves certain depth.

For securing the magnetic "enhancers" it is necessary to prepare in advance patterns tin, dimensions of which must coincide with core size and width of grooves. It is important to distribute the magnets to the core at the same distance. Fix them by using an adhesive.

Concrete mixer

The biggest challenge when building a homemade mixers - to ensure its stability. Especially acute question of jamming the machine after loading cement weight.

Consider one of the most unusual ways to create a concrete mixer with chain:

Illustration	Description of the action
	For manufacturing base, we need metal channels or corners.
	The movable member is fixed on the tongue and groove system, limiting lateral move bolts.
	The base is attached to the hub.
	To arm rotating mechanism using a normal wheel from the car.
	Real "highlight" of the whole structure became a specially designed mechanism, the rotating barrel. It is based on the principle of a bicycle chain. However, in this case an asterisk have to take a deliberately deeper grooves to engage the chain even at the possible rocking.
	Itself welded chain spot welding over the entire circumference of the drum.
	Trigger the easiest.
	That's the first run. Goes smoothly. Even on looking at a solid weight.

Tip! As a container for mixing can be used as a tank most of the washing machine and the usual barrel. However, the design and dimensions of the barrel should be commensurate.
