Diving into the form

Semester One

//Diving into the form

We see daily life objects right from the morning till the night fall reaches. But we hardly wonder what kind of forms might underlay the complex objects of these routines. To try and comprehend these structures and their forms we started exploring objects that inhibit our favourite places.

I went ahead and chose the manual juice maker. I am a huge fan of fruit and vegetable juices, so this machine is something I engage with almost on a daily basis.

If you look closely at the machine parts and its movements you'll get an idea that every part has a function to do or a force to counter or produce to give the desired results.

The grinder converging more and more leads to all the juices coming out and the pulp going through an opening to fall out of the system while the juice gets collected down in a container.

In the adjoining diagram you can clearly see all the forces acting on the important parts of the machine.

The juice maker has a manual moving bar that is directly connected to a circular spiral at a continuously converging straight axis to keep the pulp moving forward in a direction that leads it to the grinder.
