  1. Machine

    A machine is a physical system using power to apply forces and control movement to perform an action. The term is commonly applied to artificial devices, such those employing engines or motors, but also to natural biological macromolecules, such as molecular machines. Machines can be driven by animals and people, by natural forces such as wind and water, and by chemical, thermal, or electrical power, and include a system of mechanisms that shape the actuator input to achieve a specific application of output forces and movement. They can also include computers and sensors that monitor performance and plan movement, often called mechanical systems.
    Renaissance natural philosophers identified six simple machines which were the elementary devices that put a load into motion, and calculated the ratio of output force to input force, known today as mechanical advantage.Modern machines are complex systems that consist of structural elements, mechanisms and control components and include interfaces for convenient use. Examples include: a wide range of vehicles, such as automobiles, boats and airplanes; appliances in the home and office, including computers, building air handling and water handling systems; as well as farm machinery, machine tools and factory automation systems and robots.

  1. Machine

    A machine is a tool that consists of one or more parts, and uses energy to achieve a particular goal. Machines are usually powered by mechanical, chemical, thermal, or electrical means, and are frequently motorized. Historically, a powered tool also required moving parts to classify as a machine; however, the advent of electronics technology has led to the development of powered tools without moving parts that are considered machines.
    A simple machine is a device that simply transforms the direction or magnitude of a force, but a large number of more complex machines exist. Examples include vehicles, electronic systems, molecular machines, computers, television, and radio.

Machine elements
A machine is any device that uses energy to perform some activity. In common usage, the meaning is that of a device having parts that perform or assist in performing any type of work. A simple machine is a device that transforms the direction or magnitude of a force without consuming any energy. The word ‘machine’ is derived from the Latin word ‘machine’, which means, expedient, remedy. It may be anything from such an elementary machine as a wedge or a lever to a steam turbine. In practice such simple machines as levers, wedges or pulleys are not spoken of as machines. This name is used for instruments consisting of many elements.
There is, of course, an enormous number of different machines, such as printing machines, machine tools, sewing machines, combustion engines, refrigerators, etc. Although each of this consist of different parts and elements, there are some machine elements that are common to most machines.
Every machine has a frame on which the other parts are mounted and the method of joining these parts to each other is more or less the same in all machines. Two pieces of metal can be joined into one piece by welding them together, which is done by either gas welding or electric welding. A bolted join is achieved by means of nuts and bolts. A bolt consists of the head and the shank with the thread.
Many parts of a machine are mobile. A shaft, for instance, rotates about its axis, and in order to make this motion possible, it is mounted in bearings. Ball bearings and rolled bearings are, of course, preferable, since they reduce friction and require less lubrication. If we want to connect two shafts together, we couple them. Some well known couplings are flange coupling and the sleeve or muff. If the two shaft are not permanently coupled to each other, but can be made to engage and disengage, the coupling is called a clutch. Jaw clutches are widely used, but friction clutches are also used where the shafts require to be connected while running. Wheels are mounted on shafts by means of keys.

Элементы машин  

Машина — это любое устройство, использующее для выполнения какой-либо деятельности. Обычно это означает устройство, имеющее части, которые выполняют или помогают в выполнении любого типа работы. Простая машина — это устройство, изменяющее направление или величину силы без потребления энергии. Слово «машина» происходит от латинского слова «machine», что означает «целесообразное средство». Это может быть что угодно, от такой простейшей машины, как клин или рычаг, до паровой турбины. На практике о таких простых машинах, как рычаги, клинья или шкивы, не говорят, как о машинах. Это название используется для инструментов, состоящих из множества элементов.

Конечно, существует огромное количество различных машин, таких как печатные машинки, станки, швейные машинки, двигатели внутреннего сгорания, холодильники и т.д. Хотя каждое из них состоит из разных частей и элементов, есть некоторые элементы машин, которые являются общими к большинству машин.

У каждой машины есть рама, на которой установлены другие части, и способ соединения этих частей друг с другом более или менее одинаков для всех машин. Два куска металла можно соединить в одно целое, сварив их вместе, что выполняется либо газовой сваркой, либо электросваркой. Болтовое соединение достигается с помощью гаек и болтов. Болт состоит из головки и стержня с резьбой.

Многие части машины подвижны. Например, вал вращается вокруг своей оси, и, чтобы сделать это движение возможным, он установлен в подшипниках. Шариковые и роликовые подшипники, конечно, предпочтительнее, поскольку они уменьшают трение и требуют меньшего количества смазки. Если мы хотим соединить два вала вместе, мы соединяем их. Некоторые хорошо известные муфты представляют собой фланцевую муфту и втулку или муфту. Если два вала не соединены друг с другом постоянно, но могут быть включены и расцеплены, соединение называется муфтой. Кулачковые муфты широко используются, но фрикционные муфты также используются там, где требуется соединение валов во время работы. Колеса устанавливаются на валы с помощью шпонок.

Задание 4

1) A machine is any device that uses energy to perform some activity.

2) I know a lever, a wheel, an axle, an inclined plane, a screw and a wedge.

3) The main part of every machine is a frame.

4) The two pieces of metal can be joined by either gas welding or electric welding.

5)  A bolt consists of the head and the shank with the thread.

6) I know flange coupling, jaw clutches, friction clutches, sleeve.

Задание 5

1) uses energy to perform some activity.

2) some activity.

3) machines from which more difficult machines are made of.

4) a frame.

5) mobile.  

6) require less lubrication.

Задание 6

Use: uses, usage, is used,

Mean: meaning, means.

Задание 7

Общий вопрос (тот, на который можно ответить только «да» или «нет»): Does every machine has a frame?

Специальный вопрос (тот, который задаётся к различным членам предложения): What does a bolt consist of?

Разделительный вопрос (короткая вопросительная часть, которая выделяется запятой и используется в конце предложения): Many parts of a machine are mobile, aren’t they?

Альтернативный вопрос (вопрос, который предоставляет несколько вариантов ответа): Is the word «machine» derived from the Latin or from the French word?

Machines

In his activities man makes use of a multitude of machines. Although most of them are of quite recent origin, a few simple ones are considered to have come from very ancient times. There were a lot of prehistoric implements, the bow and the arrow being the most ancient. They were his tools in his struggle for existence.

The wheel, one of the greatest inventions ever made by man is also of prehistoric origin. The inclined plane and its use have also been known. It was doubtless by its use that Egyptian slaves lifted the huge stones that went into the construction of the great pyramids.

The lever is probably of equally ancient origin. It is mentioned by the Greek Philosopher Aristotle as a means of lifting a great weight by using a very small force.

Tremendous changes in machine development were made in the 20th century. Now we use not only powerful devices, precise instruments, but also ―clever machines.‖

The internal combustion engine

The internal combustion engine is an engine in which the combustion of a fuel (normally a fossil fuel) occurs with an oxidizer (usually air) in a combustion chamber that is an integral part of the working fluid flow circuit. In an internal combustion engine (ICE) the expansion of the high-temperature and high-pressure gases produced by combustion apply direct force to some component of the engine. The force is applied typically to pistons, turbine blades, or a nozzle. This force moves the component over a distance, transforming chemical energy into useful mechanical energy. The first commercially successful internal combustion engine was created by Étienne Lenoir

The cycle is characterized by four strokes, or straight movements alternately, back and forth, of a piston inside a cylinder:

1. intake (induction) stroke

2. compression stroke

3. power (combustion) stroke

4. exhaust stroke

1) The cycle begins at top dead center, when the piston is at its uppermost point. On the first downward stroke (intake) of the piston, a mixture of fuel and air is drawn into the cylinder through the intake (inlet) port.

2) The intake (inlet) valve (or valves) then close(s), and the following upward stroke (compression) compresses the fuel-air mixture.

3) The air-fuel mixture is then ignited, usually by a spark plug for a gasoline or by the heat and pressure of compression for a Diesel cycle of compression ignition engine, at approximately the top of the compression stroke.

4) The resulting expansion of burning gases then forces the piston downward for the third stroke (power), and the fourth and final upward stroke (exhaust) evacuates the spent exhaust gases from the cylinder past the then-open exhaust valve or valves, through the exhaust port.

Wordlist

internal combustion engine — двигатель внутреннего сгорания

fuel — топливо

to occur — происходить

chamber — камера

piston — поршень

nozzle — форсунка, наконечник, выпускное отверстие

stroke — ход, такт

intake — всасывание compression — сжатие

to ignite — воспламенять(ся) зажигать

spark plug — запальная свеча

approximately — приблизительно

downward (upward) — движение вниз (вверх)

exhaust gases — отработанные (выхлопные) газы

valve — клапан

spring — пружина

Answer the questions.

1. What is internal combustion engine?

2. What process produces force in the engine?

3. Who created the first ICE?

4. What are the main strokes in the ICE?

5. Can you describe them?

The Wheel

One of mankind s earliest and greatest inventions was the wheel. Without it there could be no industry, little transportation or communications, only crude farming, no electric power. Nobody knows when the wheel was invented. There is no trace of the wheel during the Stone Age, and it was not known to the American Indians until the White Man came. In the Old World it came into use during the Bronze Age, when horses and oxen were used as work animals.

At first all wheels were solid discs. The problem to be solved was to make the wheels lighter and at the same time keep them strong. At first holes were made in the wheels, and they became some with iron and then with rubber.

Wordlist

mankind — человечество

trace — след

to come into use — найти свое применение

Isaac Newton

Isaac Newton is generally regarded as one of the greatest and most famous scientists in history. Newton was an astronomer, physicist, mathematic and philosopher who is known for theorizing and reporting on gravitational force and three laws of motion.

Isaac Newton discovered that white light is made up of a spectrum of colours, that when blender together produce the white light. He showed by use of a prism that white light can be split into a spectrum of colours and then used a second prism to show this spectrum can then be rejoined to produce white light. Newton also theorized that light was composed of particles but had to associate the property of light with waves in order to explain refraction of light.

Text 1. Lathe

Lathe is still the most important machine-tool. It pro­duces parts of circular cross-section by turning the workpiece on its axis and cutting its surface with a sharp stationary tool. The tool may be moved sideways to pro­duce a cylindrical part and moved towards the workpiece to control the depth of cut. Nowadays all lathes are power-driven by electric motors. That allows continuous rotation of the workpiece at a variety of speeds. The mod­ern lathe is driven by means of a headstock supporting a hollow spindle on accurate bearings and carrying either a chuck or a faceplate, to which the workpiece is clamped. The movement of the tool, both along the lathe bed and at right angle to it, can be accurately controlled, so ena­bling a part to be machined to close tolerances. Modern lathes are often under numerical control.

Text 2. Milling machine

In a milling machine the cutter (фреза) is a circular device with a series of cutting edges on its circumfer­ence. The workpiece is held on a table that controls the feed against the cutter. The table has three possible movements: longitudinal, horizontal, and vertical; in some cases it can also rotate. Milling machines are the most versatile of all machine tools. Flat or contoured surfaces may be machined with excellent finish and ac­curacy. Angles, slots, gear teeth and cuts can be made by using various shapes of cutters.

Text 3. Grinder

Grinding is the removal of metal by a rotating abrasive wheel; the action is similar to that of a milling cutter. The wheel is composed of many small grains of abrasive, bonded together, with each grain acting as a miniature cutting tool. The process produces extremely smooth and accurate finishes. Because only a small amount of material is removed at each pass of the wheel, grinding machines require fine wheel regulation. The pressure of the wheel against the workpiece can be made very slight, so that grinding can be carried out on fragile materials that cannot be machined by other conventional devices. Grinding is actually a cutting operation in which each grit that comes in contact with the material cuts out a minute chip. Grinding wheels usually consist of particles of a synthetic abrasive, such as silicon carbide or aluminum oxide.

VI.2. Discussion the advantages and disadvantages of using computers:

Teacher: Now, tell me please have you got a computer at home?

Pupil 1: Yes. I’ve got a computer at home and I use it all the time. It’s like a typewrite and address book for me and it is also used for checking my spelling. Besides, I can go on the Internet and discover everything about anything, it’s a brilliant source of information.

Pupil 2: As for me I also have got a computer at home. I’ve designed my own website and I’m getting loads of information for school. Besides some website are packed with games and competitions, it’s all you need for hours of fun on your computer. I can play and learn on it. I don’t know how I ever live without it.

Pupil 3: I haven’t got a computer at home, but I would like to have it. In my opinion life is dull without it. My parents consider that I can damage my health working on a computer.

Pupil 4: I think if you don’t take care you can damage your health working on computers. That’s why remember to take 10 minutes break every hour your work. This will rest your eyes and other parts of your body.

Pupil 5: As for me I’m fond of English and I spend all my spare time working or playing on the computer. And I suppose that English is closely connected with the computer science.

VI.3. Activating topical vocabulary.

Teacher: I’m glad to hear that! You are right. English is closely connected with the computer science. And Computer Language is mostly an English Language. Many terms came from English into Russian some of them we can understand without dictionary. Now I would like you to activate topical vocabulary. Please, switch on your computers.

First of all let’s match English and Russian equivalents of the terms.

screen экран
CD(Rom) диск
mouse мышь
keyboard клавиатура
disk drive дисковод
floppy disk гибкий диск
mouse pad /mat коврик для мыши
modem модем
laptop портативный компьютер

VI.4. Questionnaire.

Teacher: Well, I’m sure you know much about computers. But tell me please, what is a computer?

Pupil: A computer is a machine that takes in fact, known as data and following instructions and processes these facts to produce information.

Teacher: Name the main classes of computer’s hardware.

Pupil: There are 5 main classes of computer’s hardware: the control unit, the arithmetic unit, memory, input and output.

Teacher: There are two kinds of memory ROM and RAM, aren’t there?

Pupil: Yes, there are. There are two kinds of memory ROM and RAM. Read only memory holds a store of programmers which tell the computer how to work. Random Access Memory stores data and instructions while the computer is turned on. When the computer is switched of all the data stored in it is lost.

Teacher: Can computers replace people?

Pupil: As we see computers can do a lot of things, but not all of them, that’s why they can’t replace people. But we use computers to make our life easier.

VI.5. Crosswords.

VI.6. Mobile phones in schools…

img12 img6

Teacher: For several years now, schools have debated whether or not pupils should be allowed to bring their mobile phones to school. While there are some advantages of having mobiles at school, I personally believe that it is better for you to leave your mobiles at home. What’s your opinion?

Pupil1. I think that mobile phones can be serious distraction in classrooms, It is impossible for teachers and students to focus on classwork, if there are constant interruptions from mobile phones ringing.

Pupil2. I’d find it almost impossible to be without my mobile phone. I just couldn’t organize my social life without it, and my parents only allow me to stay out late on Saturday if I keep calling them. They want to know where I am

Pupil 3. Students should not be allowed to bring their mobiles to school because last year there have been quite a few cases, for instance, of students being robbed of their phones. In addition, the classroom should not be used as a place to show off possessions.

Pupil 4. To my mind, the best solution to this would be to totally ban the use of mobile phones during the lessons.

Teacher: Thank you for your opinions. Now we go on Internet.

  1. Print the internet address www.wikipedia.org.
  2. Choose – English
  3. In the left column print –mobile phone in the dialogue box
  4. Click – go
  5. Look at the pictures on the right and compare mobile phones from various years. If you don’t know how to name them click – Terminology in the contents. Teach your classmates to name different types of mobile phones in English.
  6. Answer the questions.
    • which of them is the oldest? Comment.
    • which of them is the latest?
    • which is the best? Why?
    • which of them do you have or would like to have? Comment.

VII. Summing-up.

Dear friends! I’d like to thank you for your work. You were really great! I hope you’ve learned much and perhaps will use your knowledge of English in the future.

What can you say about our lesson ?

COMPUTERS
MACHINE

Task 1. Read and translate the text:

All of us think about a computer.
That’s why we ask: «What is a computer?» A computer is one of the
modern technologies using everywhere. It is a complex instrument made up of
hundreds of electronic devices, miles of electronic wire. Its complex
electronic brains produce information. This information is stored on magnetic
tapes or punched cards. Who feeds the computer information? An operator can
feed figures and symbols into the machine. When an operator wants to receive
answers, he asks the machine in a special language to process the information
taken from storage. The electronic machine can give any answer or a combination
of possible answers. At a panel desk connected to the instrument, the machine can
flash its answers on a screen, can print them on paper, and store them away on
magnet tapes or cards.

Of cause, more than 100.000 pieces
of information can be stored in one machine. The computer can do a lot of
operations. For example, the computer can multiply large numbers. How long does
it take the computer to multiply large numbers? In one third of a second a
computer can multiply two 127-digit numbers. In one whole second, it can add
4.000 five-digit numbers. In two seconds it can complete 320 long-division
problems. The same machine does the work of thousands of trained mathematicians
in any given time period and without the mistakes. But … human beings do
thinking, feed information to the machines. The computer only helps us to find
answers and produce facts faster and more accurately. Machines work for us, but
they do not think for us.

Task 2. Answer the following questions:

What is a computer?

What functions has a computer?

Why do people extremely need a computer nowadays?

What is the connection between computer brains and
man’s mind?

Is the electronic system of a computer very complex or
simple?

Do electronic brains of a computer produce
information?

How many pieces of information can be stored in one
machine?

What does the computer machine flash?

Task 3. Say whether the statements given
below are true or false:

The electronic system of a computer is very simple.

More than 50 pieces of information can be stored in
one machine.

In second a computer can multiply two 970 — digit numbers.

Machines think for us, but they do not work for us.

The computer cannot do a lot of operations.

Task 4. Match the words given below with
the definitions:

Computer …………………. ………………………………

Fax (machine) …………….. ………………………………

E-mail ….….………………. ………………………………

Telephone …………………. ………………………………

The Internet .………………. ………………………………

A) The machine which is used for sending or receiving
copies of primed material, letters, pictures, etc. along a telephone line.

B) An international network of computers. It has electronic
mail and

provides a large amount of information.

C) An electronic machine that can store and recall
information, do many processes on it.

D) An electronic system which joins a group of
computers. People can send messages to each other on their computers.

E) A system for sending or receiving speech over long
distances.
