Answer (1)

The difference in the pneumatic device to what i was expecting was that i was expecting a device with a very complicated working system but was amazed at how simple but yet a little complex the pneumatic device was.

Answer (2)

A typical device used help a disabled person the pneumatic wheel chair. It uses compressed air to lift and lower the seat of the wheel chair. The compressed air is stored in a compressor below the seat and connected to the seat through piston cylinders. In order to lift, actuators activate valves that open and close at certain place to force air upward lifting the chair. Coming down is usually done by slowly leaking out the air and letting the chair descend under the weight of the user.

Answer:

A pneumatic device used an automated piece of machinery is the pneumatic press. The pneumatic press is a compressed air operated device in most manufacturing setting, frequently used in the automotive parts manufacturing industries. It uses compressed air to force down a ram which is usually used for baling scraps or for shaping metals.

Answer:

1. Effect of air pressure

2. air- powered wheel chair

3. Pneumatic valves

Step-by-step explanation:

1. In any pneumatic device, the mipact of air pressure to produce the moving effect on an heavy object is unexpected.

2. pneumatice demultiplexer when air in comprressed tank is allowed released to cause movement of the chair.

3. In industries, a pneumatic valve operates by force of air when actuated. A signal causes actuation of coil. When coil is energized, compressed high pressure air is allowe to enter in a small cylinder and cause operation of valve
