Artificial wind evolution

With the development of civilization, the problem of garbage collection on the streets and in city parks made people think of a useful activity for the wind. As he watched a storm clear the sidewalks of fallen leaves during bad weather in the fall, he decided to create an artificial wind, curb it, and end the garbage crisis.

Back in the 19th century, enthusiasts invented such devices. The first industrial plant with manual bellows was used to clean the homes of wealthy people. And in 1900, when only the first cars appeared on the streets, a patent for a vacuum cleaner with an internal combustion engine was already in the English Patent Office.

A hundred years have passed and now the best manufacturers of garden and garden mini equipment in a sharp competition offer dozens and hundreds of models of blowers and vacuum cleaners. In some, it is attracted by high-quality performance, in others the average price. But the main thing for the consumer is a guarantee of long-term operation without breakdowns.

What are the wind generators

Depending on the required tasks for cleaning garbage, the tool designed for this is divided into two classes:

• professional equipment for cleaning large areas of parks or stadiums are mini tractors with a diesel or gasoline engine, equipped with a powerful compressor;
• household and semi-professional equipment for home areas, summer cottages, workshops and utility rooms.

We will only consider household purposes. Tools of this class differ in the type of drive:

• electrical from the external network;
• electric with storage battery;
• with a gasoline engine.

Using an external electrical network requires long extension cords. If you have a small area with frequently planted plants, this will make it difficult to operate the tool. The need to carry long wires sometimes takes longer than the cleaning itself. In addition, it is strictly forbidden to work with such devices in rainy weather.

The cordless power tool is a stand-alone solution for cleaning small areas.Modern lithium-ion batteries have great power and service life, they are reliable and do not require maintenance. Charging with special chargers takes little time. The ability to work in any weather conditions, light weight and noiselessness made such a tool popular among consumers, despite the fact that they are more expensive than other analogues.

The petrol engine solves the problem of autonomy. It does not need electricity, it functions in all weather conditions. The manufacturer of this technology is constantly improving the efficiency and reliability of the engine, so when buying, be sure of its durability. The need to periodically refuel the tool with a fuel mixture of gasoline and oil reduces the popularity of such units among the female half of consumers.

Each type of tool, depending on the weight, is divided into hand-held and knapsack designs. The lightweight and compact tool is equipped with a shoulder strap, the load is evenly distributed over the back and does not fatigue the hands.

More powerful and heavier designs are available in a knapsack design. There is a variant of the unit itself as a knapsack, and there are options for a hand tool, supplemented by a garbage bag with a knapsack fixation on the back. Such a device can be used as a semi-professional.

The range of functions performed by garden units is not limited only to cleaning outdoor areas. The presence of a computer in every family sets the task of cleaning it, otherwise it may stop, covered with cobwebs and dust inside. A household vacuum cleaner will not solve this problem, only blowing out effectively cope with it by expelling dust from narrow places. To this can be added drying and cleaning the car or, for example, cleaning the radiators of heating systems.
