2. Bucket (machine part) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bucket_(machine_part)

   A bucket (also called a scoop to qualify shallower designs of tools) is a specialized container attached to a machine, as compared to a bucket adapted for manual use by a human being. It is a bulk material handling component. The bucket has an inner volume as compared to other types of machine attachments like blades or shovels.

3. Axial compressor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axial_compressor

   An animated simulation of an axial compressor. The static blades are the stators.. An axial compressor is a gas compressor that can continuously pressurize gases.It is a rotating, airfoil-based compressor in which the gas or working fluid principally flows parallel to the axis of rotation, or axially.

4. Helicopter bucket - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helicopter_bucket

   A helicopter bucket or helibucket is a specialized bucket suspended on a cable carried by a helicopter to deliver water for aerial firefighting. The design of the buckets allows the helicopter to hover over a water source—such as a lake , river , pond , or tank —and lower the bucket into the water to refill it.

5. Turbine blade - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turbine_blade

   The turbine is connected to a compressor using a shaft (the complete rotating assembly sometimes called a "spool"). Air is compressed, raising the pressure and temperature, as it passes through the compressor. The temperature is then increased by combustion of fuel inside the combustor which is located between the compressor and the turbine.

6. Air cycle machine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_cycle_machine

   The usual compression, cooling and expansion seen in any refrigeration cycle is accomplished in the ACM by a centrifugal compressor, two air-to-air heat exchangers and an expansion turbine. Bleed air from the engines, an auxiliary power unit, or a ground source, which can be in excess of 150 °C and at a pressure of perhaps 32 psi (220 kPa ...

7. Scroll compressor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scroll_compressor

   A scroll compressor (also called spiral compressor, scroll pump and scroll vacuum pump) is a device for compressing air or refrigerant. [1] It is used in air conditioning equipment, as an automobile supercharger (where it is known as a scroll-type supercharger ) and as a vacuum pump .

8. Big Muskie - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big_Muskie

   The Big Muskie was a model 4250-W dragline and was the only one ever built by the Bucyrus-Erie company. [2] With a 220-cubic-yard (170 m 3) bucket, it was the largest single-bucket digging machine ever created and one of the world's largest mobile earth-moving machines alongside the Illinois-based Marion 6360 stripping shovel called The Captain and the German bucket wheel excavators of the ...

9. Diving cylinder - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diving_cylinder

   The pressure vessel is a seamless cylinder normally made of cold-extruded aluminum or forged steel. [5] Filament wound composite cylinders are used in fire fighting breathing apparatus and oxygen first aid equipment because of their low weight, but are rarely used for diving, due to their high positive buoyancy.
