Man ordered Amazon kindle but receives Human tumour

James Potten a Bristol - England native was expecting his Amazon Kindle which he ordered when he handed package from FedEX, But actually what he got was patient tumour specimen which was destined for the Royal Free Hospital London.

This news became viral when the 37 year Potten tweeted about this. He got surprised when he saw box written patient tumour specimen enclosed. As it was written on the box he didn’t opened the box. ‘The tracking code on the item had the same first five and last three numbers as my order but it wasn't my Kindle. I haven't opened the sealed box, which says exempt patient tissue, as it doesn't belong to me.’ he said to the BBC.

Wow @FedEx. You've swapped my new kindle with a tumor specimen. Still waiting for collection #FedExFail #notmykindle pic.twitter.com/GlleuOYbiE

Now as per reports The Royal Free London NHS Foundation Trust expects the delivery company to contact all the institutions at the Royal Free Hospital site to establish the identity of the intended recipient.

Six Leg Kinematic Moving Machine

Four bar linkage are the closed loop kinematic linkage , they perform a wide variety of motions with a few simple parts. This project discusses the design & fabrication of one such mechanism (Four Bar Mechanism). In this project Six Leg Kinematic movement works on Grashof’s principle which states that the sum of the length of the shortest and longest links must be less than or equal to the some of the other two links. However this condition is necessary but nor sufficient. Mechanism satisfying this condition will fall into crank-rocker mechanism, double crank mechanism and double rocker mechanism. A frame, connecting rod, crank & a lever constitute to obtain the required motion. In this project we tried to show mainly the application of simple four bar mechanism. PHOTOS & DRAWINGS APPLICATIONS It would be difficult to compete with the efficiency of a wheel on smooth hard surfaces but as condition increases rolling friction, this li...

Mechanical Spider using Klann Mechanism

The invention provides a walking device which stimulates a gait of a legged animal. The device includes a frame with spaced axial mounts, a leg, axially connected upper and lower rocker arms which limit reciprocating leg motion. The leg is driven by a connecting arm powered by a rotating crank. The position and configuration of the axial connecting sites establish a prescribed orbital path that the foot undertakes with each revolution of the crank. Both rocker arms and the crank are axially mounted to the frame. The leg has a hip joint axially connected to the upper rocker arm for limiting hip motion, a foot and a knee joint axially connected to the connecting arm. The connecting arm has three axial connecting sites, one for connecting to the knee, another to the crank, and a third connecting site defined as a centrally disposed elbow joint connecting site which connects onto the lower rocker arm and limits knee joint motion. Under power, crank rotation is transferred to the connectin...

Energy generating speed humps

In your view there may be many uses of Speed Humps like Safety, Speed limiting etc, What if i say speed humps can be also used for power generation? you heard me right using a simple setup we can effectively us speed humps for power generation, So why speed humps? After consuming non-renewable source of energy for years people are looking forward for renewable source of energy.Search of energy lead to power generation using sunlight, wind, tide etc. When talking about new source of energy people are asking for effective, renewable, maintenance less, nature friendly energy sources. When talking about energy generation using speed humps all above conditions are matching so this method can be effectively used to power street lights, traffic signals etc. BASIC FLOW CHART MATERIALS REQUIRED Rack Pinion Large Sprocket Chain Small Sprocket Flywheel Large Gear Small Gear Generator Ball Bearing RACK AND PINION GEARS: The rack and pinion used to convert between rotary and...
