Yeah, I think in practice, as drawn, the red wheels would simply jam up. And if they don't, the outer rim of the big wheel would not hold its place relative to the inner part. I dont see how the outer rim could be solid enough, relative to the inner hub, to do any useful job. The whole thing just breaks. http://www.drgoulu.com/2005/12/29/eviteur-daxe/ The mine application seems to be a subset version. If that is the best example any one has of this design in practice it suggests that its not possible to build a working version of the whole thing. A mechanically weak proof of concept might be possible, but a solid use-able version seems to me to be impossible. Might work if the outer rim is supported or guided on some way. I still think loading is a problem though. I love to see some one try to build it.... |
