以色列一位自动生产线设计师设计的纯纸板自行车即将在数月内开始大量生产,车身仅重9公斤,售价不超过20美元。据这位设计师介绍,他经过四年的时间研究如何消除纸板材料的结构弱点,同时还花了一年半的时间研究如何折叠纸板才能做出结实的自行车。自行车雏形完成后,还要用有机材料制成的混合材料对纸板进行防水和防火处理。最后进入生产程序的自行车将不使用任何金属零件,连刹车系统、车轮以及脚踏板都是由可循环材料制成的。除公开销售以外,纸板自行车还可作为大公司的广告载体免费发放到消费者手中。据悉,纸板系列的三个自行车款和一个轮椅款将于数月内在以色列开始生产,并在一年内开始销售。
A bicycle made almost entirely of cardboard has the potential to change transportation habits from the world's most congested cities to the poorest reaches of Africa, its Israeli inventor says.
Izhar Gafni, 50, is an expert in designing automated mass-production lines. He is an amateur cycling enthusiast who for years toyed with an idea of making a bicycle from cardboard.
He said during a recent demonstration that after much trial and error, his latest prototype has now proven itself and mass production will begin in a few months.
"I was always fascinated by applying unconventional technologies to materials and I did this on several occasions. But this was the culmination of a few things that came together. I worked for four years to cancel out the corrugated cardboard's weak structural points," Gafni said.
