Doomsday Bunker Upgrade

The embarrassment of not having raw materials made Chen Xin really embarrassed for a while, but he quickly got rid of this embarrassment and put the parts of the heater that were dismantled in front of him together temporarily and put them aside. After saying that he wanted to go out, he walked out of the tent.

The shortage of raw materials is one of the difficulties faced by Chen Xin, and it is also one of the problems faced by the city at this time.

Therefore, Chen Xin did not intend to find the staff in Linshi to get some raw materials to complete the transformation, but planned to find and collect some useful things in the city.

Although Chen Xin believed that if he went to the staff, it would be no problem to get enough materials to renovate the furnace, but considering that the staff told him that Linshi was facing a shortage of materials at this time, Chen Xin felt that there was no need to do so. .

After all, with power armor and mechanical arms, it is easy for him to find some materials.

The ambulance station is located next to a shelter in Linshi, which was originally a prosperous commercial area in Linshi. Although most of the surrounding buildings were buried by snow, many things could still be found in the buildings.

Chen Xin found a building that had not been completely buried by snow, and climbed in through the exposed window.

There was also a considerable amount of snow accumulated in the building, which made Chen Xin able to climb in, but he couldn't stand up straight and could only lie on the ground.

After clearing the snow with the robotic arm, Chen Xin reluctantly raised his head to make room for himself.

"I really suffer... but fortunately, as expected, there are still things." He complained, Chen Xin raised his hand to catch the metal material cut from the ceiling with a robotic arm, very satisfied with himself reward.

In fact, as Chen Xin thought, although people had three months to prepare and collect materials before the disaster, most of the things that could be found in the building were taken away, but the materials contained in the building itself were not. No.

The simplest example is the suspended ceiling that Chen Xin is cutting.

It was supposed to be a shopping mall, and the ceiling on the top floor was made of a gusseted ceiling to hide the ventilation ducts and unsightly circuit lines on the ceiling.

This gusset ceiling is made of aluminum alloy frame, which looks a little old. Not only is there a thick layer of ash inside, but the metal parts between the layers also look full of rust. Disrepaired and deformed.

However, this did not prevent Chen Xin from recycling them, dismantling them one by one with a robotic arm, and simply cutting them into suitable lengths, and then screwing them together for easy portability.

If these aluminum alloy parts dismantled by Chen Xin could only be sold as scraps in the past, they would not be of much use.

But for Chen Xin now, he can completely recycle these waste products.

As long as these materials are recycled, the useful parts are extracted, and the 3D printing function of the robotic arm is used, it is not a hassle to transform several heaters.

Of course, these materials can only be regarded as supplements, not what Chen Xin is mainly looking for when he comes here.

After cutting apart the ceiling gussets and cutting the ventilation ducts behind the gussets into pieces, Chen Xin finally found what he wanted after removing most of the ceiling as far as he could see.

The fan coil unit of the central air conditioner.

This is the terminal equipment of the central air conditioner. There are small fans, electric motors and air heat exchangers in it. It is also what Chen Xin is mainly looking for this time.

This kind of thing is usually installed on the ceiling or other locations, so even if most of the materials in the building are recycled and dismantled, few people would think of dismantling this kind of thing.

Chen Xin bundled the previously twisted metal strips and the cut ventilation pipes into a roll, and then waved the robotic arm to remove the fan coil unit.

According to Chen Xin's estimation, he should be able to dismantle one of the four furnaces and have left over.

Just dismantling the fan coil unit, Chen Xin couldn't help laughing secretly. He seemed to have a soft spot for dismantling the air conditioner. He used to dismantle the external unit of the air conditioner to make a ground source heat pump, but now he dismantles the fan coil unit of the central air conditioner and refits the heater. It seems that I always have trouble with the air conditioner.

However, this is actually very understandable. The air conditioner itself is a device made of a large number of metal materials, and because of its working principle, many of the above parts are actually not low in technology.

In addition, in this apocalypse, no one would think about dismantling two air conditioners for recycling and reuse when collecting materials. Naturally, this kind of thing contains a lot of metal materials and can be disassembled into various parts. The most suitable source of recycling materials.

Chen Xin didn't think much about it. After removing the fan coil unit, he held it in his arms and dragged it out of the abandoned building together with the metal material that had been rolled into a bundle just now.

Using the robotic arm to lift the metal material, Chen Xin turned around and returned to the ambulance station.

When Chen Xin returned to the ambulance station, Qin Lan and Mo Qingyan happened to be looking for him together. They were both very curious when they saw Chen Xin carrying a lot of scrap metal.

"Axin, are you... just coming back from collecting junk?" Qin Lan looked at Chen Xin up and down, and could only think of this description.

However, Chen Xin nodded and answered affirmatively: "I plan to remodel the heater, but I found that I didn't have any suitable materials on hand, so I went to collect some."

Hearing this, Qin Lan and Mo Qingyan felt a little speechless, but they didn't say much, just asked him, "Is there anything we can help?"

"No..." Chen Xingang wanted to say that he didn't need to help, but after thinking about it, he swallowed back what he almost said, and said, "Yes, I just need your help for something, come with me."

With that said, Chen Xin walked towards his car with the materials he brought back.

Seeing this, Qin Lan and Mo Qingyan hurriedly followed behind Chen Xin.

When he came to the car, Chen Xin threw the materials he brought back to the ground, and then asked Qin Lan and Mo Qingyan, "Alan, Longniang, have you heard the term electromagnetic metallurgy?"

"Electromagnetic metallurgy? What is that?" Qin Lan and Mo Qingyan looked at each other, and both saw the blankness in each other's eyes.

Seeing that the two did not understand, Chen Xin explained to the two: "The so-called electromagnetic metallurgy is simply a technology that controls and affects the metal smelting process by means of the electromagnetic force formed by current and magnetic field."

"Why are you talking about this? We don't understand! Just tell me what you want to do and how you want us to help!" Mo Qingyan didn't like Chen Xin's sloppy look, and asked him directly about his purpose .

Chen Xin raised his eyebrows indifferently, and then said: "I plan to build an electromagnetic metallurgical furnace, and use electromagnetic metallurgy to recycle these recycled scrap metals into usable metals. I need you to help me. Build this furnace."
