The biggest problem with high pressure and pump mechanism is the leakage of liquids. How does the pump they make prevent liquids from leaking out?

Good video, but I feel like i would have better understood the mechanics of the bridge if i saw some pedestrians getting severely injured when it opened.

Wow. Animation and video quality has significantly improved from last video! Kudos.

in a world of endless AI useless videos this is the only good learning channel

This is the first time i saw a hydraulic motor mechanism. Fascinating

Excellent animation and I am so happy you got a sponsor from solidworks.

Just Sabin casually tip-toeing away from the bridge he just destroyed 😂

Awesome video, as always! Maybe it's worth mentioning that the bridge's mechanism initially used to be powered by steam engines. You can still marvel over these beauties in the bridge museum located in the southern part of the bridge. Now that awesome and complex steam operated mechanism would be worth of it's own video (hint, hint)

Amazing visuals and animations. Love the Alfa Romeo 4C waiting at the gates. You've got a new sub!

Very nice video. I love how you explain genius things with simple terms and visuals

BEAUTIFUL

Thank you! This video really helped us with building a model of the Tower Bridge.

I love these kinda videos extremely informative!

The Trunnion Bearings are truly impressive

I'm grateful for your latest video which is just as well made as the previous ones. This time as a local to the subject matter, I am able to contribute a couple of things. I was rather hoping when you admitted that you had seriously oversimplified the engine room assemblage, that you were about to mention the carefully maintained but redundant steam engines. But perhaps they wouldn't fit with the bright primary coloured visual version of this old marvel. The other aside I'd like to tell the viewers about is to do with something which again you came close to addressing but in fact didn't. Thank you for the heretofore unknown to me superlative pivot points design. You always come up with several of these "Now I didn't know that and I didn't know that I'd be fascinated by that either" gems of engineering greatness. Alas you mentioned the over rotation downwards, as it were, but not in the other, upwards direction. This brings me to my second point: In one of those English exceptions and eccentricities, the roaddeck bascules are only ever raised to fully vertical when the monarch passes through. The last time this happened was during the Diamond Jubilee celebrations for the late Queen when she and the Duke of Edinburgh braved the driving rain being rowed down the Thames on the new version of the seventeenth century Royal Barge.

Exceptional video as always!

Piękny film, dziękuję ❤

I always live so much exited to your video❤❤❤

Love the animation details keep up thegoodwork

This bridge is true a masterpiece of engineering

tHIS IS AMAZING

Great video. Great use of animation.

Thank for amazing content.

can you maybe just edit the direction of rotation on the pinion gear @ 5:29 😅 other than that excellent video

Awesome video. Thanks 🙌🙌👍👌😊🍀🍀

How have i only just found this amazing channel

Amazing ❤

There are two good reasons to lift the trunnion load. Neither is simple load relief. The first it to prevent "fretting" (basically, scuffing of the trunnion and/or bearing at the contact area). This can happen if the load squeezes or wipes out the lubricating medium and the trunnion-to-bearing contact area is subject to vibration. The second is to allow lubrication to get to the load area. The trunnion load is concentrated (in the animation) roughly between clock positions 7 and 8. In the real world this could wipe lubrication off the trunnion-to-bearing contact area. Lifting the trunnion allows lubricant to flow into that wiped area. Similarly, double acting reciprocating compressors must be designed so there is "rod reversal", that is, the connecting rods must lift away from the cross head bearings for about 45% of each crank revolution. Other wise the bearings can overheat and fail due to loss of lubrication.

It is truly remarkable to witness. I had the opportunity to personally visit the pedestrian bridge, and I highly recommend that anyone who has the chance to visit the Tower Bridge Museum should definitely take advantage of it.

Thank you

Superb engineering model 👌👌👌👌

Fantastic video: both mechanical and civil!

Great video 😊

How does using hydraulique pump, hydraulique motor with the vannes tha come along is more straigth forward than transmission ?

I would greatly benefit from a detailed video on Air Handling Units and sewage treatment plants, covering topics such as their functions, components, and their significance in various industries. Given your expertise, I am confident that your insights and explanations would be incredibly informative and valuable.

Would it be possible for Britain to design and construct something of this complexity in this day & age ?

Please please please make a video about sensors and how can digital numbers zeros and ones can be transmitted as waves, and how can you use zeros and ones to give a message of high voltage and low voltage, such as radio waves that transmit sounds with different strengths?

Hey can do a video about rotary union and it's application in excavator. I wonder why does the hydraulic lines and power cables does get tangled when it rotates

You can also make a video of how AMT automated manual transmission works

You guys said youd do a video about tower 7, is it still coming?

I wish someone would teach accounting like this

What software was used for animation and where did you get blueprints

11:16 A joystick that controls the opening and closing of the bridge? I would have way too much fun with that! 😁

Hi from Uzbekistan 😅

Those British are incredible engineers!

when the wtc7 video will be released??

Make a video about Howrah bridge ❤

can u post any electronic and electrical or mechanical based videos. many videos based on civil, like bridge, dam and buildings. please upload any electronic or mechanical

I'll take third, you two can fight each other for first. 😊

Where have you got this idea?

More videos on civil engineering

Can you please make the explaination of the construction on India' s atal setu bridge

100 years ago: we build things to last now: yeah... the bearings are sealed so you're going to have to replace the whole bridge

Very interesting within 5 minutes the bridge is up and down. What power engine is used on inauguration and what engine has these days the London Bridge.

@ChrisCooper312

Originally it used steam engines, but since these didn't have the power to rapidly raise the bridge, they used another clever mechanism. Hydraulic accumulators. These were a number of heavy pistons that were raised by water pumped by the steam engines. When the bridge was to be raised, these would be lowered and the water diverted to hydraulic motors that would raise the bridge.

thats simply build, best rule: make something as simple as posible, introduce complexity and the failure rate increases... simple yet effective lesson !

❤❤❤

U even share the model file. Thanks

Fyi,in Malaysia the Terengganu state.We also have the Terengganu drawbridge that also lift up the bridge.

Hey that’s my town

Great video BUT it is not true that the walkways are available when tower bridge is lifted. Today if you want to access the walkways or steam engine room, you will need to purchase a ticket for the Tower Bridge Exhibition beforehand. It is not free it is a premium option.

I have a similar idea. Anyone know where I can pitch it?

👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

I thought I was going to show the old method that used the power of the Thames

How foundation work done

For some reason I always thought this bridge opens when Chuck Norris flexes his bicep.

this is why I don’t go to sleep

OK... so slightly confused... I visited Tower Bridge last year, and the tour was full of references to elevated water tanks that raise the bridge. Walked through several pump rooms too... so was this how it USED to be elevated? Yeah... the walkways ARE in use too... I was up there when the bridge opened. :D UPDATE : Yep... new system installed in 1974.

Yah, in their museum they have showcased the old technology -the accumulator based pressurized water technology. All those are abandoned now. They have moved to compact and efficient oil based hydraulic systems.

Life is what make it,there is a great deal of works that need to be done,what is the problem.

0:06 - Except the walkways (or maybe just one) is actually open as a tourist attraction with glass floor. So, people do use it.

Hydraulics have probably done more for mankind then electricity, and I doubt our modern electrical grid would've never came to fruition without them.

Animation of the load on the bearing is wrong. It's upside down

Hydraulic fluid gearsss 😁
