Treadwheel Puns

I understand how normal car wheels let a car move left and right because it turns left and keeps rolling but on a tank it’s just fixed in one way to face straight or in the same direction as the head of the tank.so how do tread wheels let a vehicle change direction?

Prepare for eyestrain. Also, I have no means of defending patents, IP rights, etc. for this idea. I don't care to waste my life trying to defend something indefensible. I just want one. "Fuck it, we'll do it live!"

Proposed idea:

The short name would be a "Treadwheel Traction Engine".

Its basic appearance would look like a human-sized Hamster exercise wheel on four large wheels. I was aiming for very large wheels. As close to 10 ft as possible.(Axle ground clearance of almost 5 feet is good for lots of types of terrain and flood damage prevention.) Smaller front wheels are good for turning, so there's one of many problems. Smaller wheels get stuck easier.

The Treadwheel mechanism(Human-size Hamster wheel) would be tall and wide enough to comfortably walk or run on.(9 ft diameter? 3-6 ft wide?) There would be a type of ratchet mechanism to control the direction, and some sort of governor to control top speed of the treadwheel. It would also include some kind of sled that rode either on bike wheels or a circular rail(s) and connected to the central axle of the hamster wheel for stability. The sled would consist of a bike/ebike, and extra batteries. The ability to recline and pedal will hopefully allow easier use and longer operating time. It would be best if the treadwheel was uncluttered, so I'm not sure how having the bike sled moving to one side of the treadwheel would work. I was thinking of the treadwheel only having spokes on one side, so you can have steering mechanisms, and the emergency escape one one side or the other. (The right open face of the wheel facing the sidewalks in North America. Open face on the left in countries like the UK.)

Some napkin calculations of how fast an eBike can run, plus a rough size of the treadwheel would mean that it might rotate twice a second at top eBike speed. I don't think it would tip over, but turning the whole thing left or right is going to be a bitch.

Said (E)bike sled could ratchet in either direction. There could be handles on the back of the Ebike sled (Like the handles/feet rests of a dog sled.)so that someone could walk behind it, and push it. The added weight might be beneficial for inertia, so you could coast by stepping on the

In most antique style Western engineering they are referred to as treadwheel cranes but this was different. In "the West" they are usually huge wheels pictured in the construction of antique stone buildings allowing 1 or more people to walk inside a giant wheel and pull ropes through pullies lifting half ton or heavier stones up in the air so they can be added to walls and things. Some great trebuchets even had them built into the frame so soldiers could walk in them to pull the throwing arm of the trebuchet down to be reloaded and fired again. Like I said though, this one was different.

This one was built in a small town in Kurdish Northern Iraq. I no longer remember the name of the town but it had a small river flowing along the Western side of the town. This wheel was built half over the river. Turns out you see, that there was a youngish Kurdish man who had lost both arms to some kind of mine or IED a few years prior to my arrival. His employment and marriage possibilities were thus greatly restricted. Someone, somewhere came up with a great idea though that got put into action. A treadwheel was built upon which he basically walked for 8 to 12 hours a day. Instead of lifting heavy stones and such instead he caused a rope pully system to run that ran a bucket system lifting water up from the river and dumping it into roof top water storage for running water or, with the turn of a lever, sent the water out through a pipe system to irrigate crop fields and fill animal water troughs.

He only had his legs but worked with them to eliminate or make easier the need for manual water transport/carrying. On top of that he had actually married and had a kid.

Just thought I would share something cool and pleasant that had popped into my head before I forgot it yet again.

In one of the worlds I play within we are trying to create a lift/elevator system that will raise and lower supplies and people safely from a holding atop some cliffs down 220' to the shoreline below.

We can build structures as needed. We have access to multiple decanters of endless water for power and teams of assorted animals. We have a huge forge and carpentry shop.

First thought was a longboat sans sail with a metal net over the top suspended by multiple chains that run up and down with a counterweight of another ship filled with rocks and stones. Using gears and waterwheels up top to raise or lower it.

The ship is just an enclosed platform that can carry 10 tons.

Does anyone have a better suggestion?

I don't want to step on anybody's toes here, but the amount of non-dad jokes here in this subreddit really annoys me. First of all, dad jokes CAN be NSFW, it clearly says so in the sub rules. Secondly, it doesn't automatically make it a dad joke if it's from a conversation between you and your child. Most importantly, the jokes that your CHILDREN tell YOU are not dad jokes. The point of a dad joke is that it's so cheesy only a dad who's trying to be funny would make such a joke. That's it. They are stupid plays on words, lame puns and so on. There has to be a clever pun or wordplay for it to be considered a dad joke.

Again, to all the fellow dads, I apologise if I'm sounding too harsh. But I just needed to get it off my chest.

Alot of great jokes get posted here! However just because you have a joke, doesn't mean it's a dad joke.

THIS IS NOT ABOUT NSFW, THIS IS ABOUT LONG JOKES, BLONDE JOKES, SEXUAL JOKES, KNOCK KNOCK JOKES, POLITICAL JOKES, ETC BEING POSTED IN A DAD JOKE SUB

Try telling these sexual jokes that get posted here, to your kid and see how your spouse likes it.. if that goes well, Try telling one of your friends kid about your sex life being like Coca cola, first it was normal, than light and now zero , and see if the parents are OK with you telling their kid the "dad joke"

I'm not even referencing the NSFW, I'm saying Dad jokes are corny, and sometimes painful, not sexual

So check out r/jokes for all types of jokes

r/unclejokes for dirty jokes

r/3amjokes for real weird and alot of OC

r/cleandadjokes If your really sick of seeing not dad jokes in r/dadjokes

Punchline !

Edit: this is not a post about NSFW , This is about jokes, knock knock jokes, blonde jokes, political jokes etc being posted in a dad joke sub

Edit 2: don't touch the thermostat

Do your worst!

How the hell am I suppose to know when it’s raining in Sweden?

Mathematical puns makes me number

Ants don’t even have the concept fathers, let alone a good dad joke. Keep r/ants out of my r/dadjokes.

But no, seriously. I understand rule 7 is great to have intelligent discussion, but sometimes it feels like 1 in 10 posts here is someone getting upset about the jokes on this sub. Let the mods deal with it, they regulate the sub.

They were cooked in Greece.

I'm surprised it hasn't decade.

Now that I listen to albums, I hardly ever leave the house.

Don't you know a good pun is its own reword?

Two muffins are in an oven, one muffin looks at the other and says "is it just me, or is it hot in here?"

Then the other muffin says "AHH, TALKING MUFFIN!!!"
