Easier
- A simple
machine is a device that helps make work easier; a
device that makes it easier to move something. Some
simple machines are a wheel, a pulley, a lever, a
screw, and an inclined plane.
Harder
- Most
machines consist of a number of elements, such as
gears and ball bearings, that work together in a
complex way. No matter how complex a machine, it is
still based on the compounding of six types of simple
machines. The six types of machines are the lever, the
wheel and axle, the pulley, the inclined plane, the
wedge, and the screw.

Of course, depending on the gun. Some are a lot more simple than others. All are “simply” machines, but not all are “Simple” machines.
A matchlock, from the 1600’s was simple, very simple, and a modern electric gatling gun, not so simple.
Col. Colt literally went broke because his first revolver, the Paterson Colt was not simple enough.
He built a large supply of revolving guns, on credit, then tried to sell them to the U.S. Army, who rejected the gun as being too fragile and too complex for use in the field.
The existing muzzle-loading pistols only had 3 moving parts, all simple to get to and to repair.
The Paterson had no trigger guard. Rather, the trigger was recessed in the frame, and when the hammer was cocked, the trigger was pushed out where it could be squeezed.
Also you had a revolving cylinder, and linkage with the hammer to move the cylinder and to index the next chamber with the barrel.
And there was added linkage from the hammer, to push the trigger out into firing position and retract it afterwards.
It had well over double the number of moving parts of a single-shot, requiring more parts inventory in the field, and repairs only by a skilled armorer, when something quit working, plus possibility of powder fouling or mud jamming the cylinder. A very few initial guns were bought as a trial, then the design was rejected completely.
So, he couldn’t sell his guns to the U.S. Army, and worse than THAT, they acquired a stink that kept them from selling in the civilian market.
Since they weren’t good enough for the Army, why would anyone else want one?
That was until The Republic Of Texas came along.
Until that time, Colt Patent Firearms was nearly done for… they were already entering bankruptcy proceedings. `
Texas put in a large order, pretty much emptying that warehouse full of guns that nobody wanted except Sam Colt’s creditors.
The first thing was that the immediate money from that order saved Colt from bankruptcy by the skin of his teeth.
The next, more important thing was that The Texas Army, Texas Navy, and (especially) The Texas Rangers used them, which created the civilian market that the U.S. Army had destroyed for him.
In The Battle Of The Bay Of Campeche, the Texas Navy defeated the Mexican Navy, and as a nod to The Republic Of Texas, Colt produced the model 1851 Navy with an engraved cylinder standard, depicting this naval battle.
In addition, to creating a market, the Rangers found a few design flaws, so Captain John Coffee Hays and Capt. Samuel Walker (The Walker Colt ) went to Connecticut with plans for design changes.
The result was The Colt Patterson #5 Holster model, marketed by Colt as “The Texas Paterson”.
The original concept was that the Paterson was an infantry weapon. When you fired your five shots, you could lay flat on the ground, partially disassemble it for reloading, then re-assemble and go on fighting.
The most important use of Colt Revolvers was by The Texas Rangers, who often had to fight Indians on horseback.
To reload the gun, you had to remove the barrel wedge, then remove the barrel, then stuff powder and ball into each chamber with a special supplied tool, then follow those steps in reverse.
If the cylinder, barrel, or barrel wedge fell out of your hands, the gun was useless.
Most Rangers got around that by wearing a sash around their waist and sticking loose parts in there while they just switched in a spare loaded cylinder.
That was in addition to carrying two revolvers, so they had a better chance of getting through an encounter without having to actually stuff powder and balls into the chambers to reload.
So the two most major changes the went to Sam Colt with was to increase caliber from .28 to .36 and produce a different shape on the grip.
Then two years later, Captain Hayes campaigned for the addition of a loading lever, and a capping port in the rear, so no disassembly was required to reload on the back of a galloping horse. Colt made the change to the Texas Paterson.
The Comanche sometimes wore breastplates made of 18-inch lengths of reeds packed in dried mud, and this would often stop a light little .28 caliber ball.
Captain John Coffee Hayes (Called “Devil Jack” by local Indians) first introduced The Comanche to Colt Patent Firearms at The Battle Of Enchanted Rock , in 1841.
He was a surveyor by trade, and climbed to the top of the highest feature in the area, (Enchanted Rock) to have a good look at the lay of the land.
Unfortunately, Enchanted Rock was sacred to both the Comanche and Tonkawa tribes, who believed that evil spirits lived there and are rumored to have made human sacrifices at the base of the rock to keep from getting on the bad side of the spirits. The Comanches caught him alone up there.
In a 3-hour solo battle, he killed them until they took refuge in caves at the base of the rock.
How many of them he killed, before they hid from him, depends on whom you ask, but the lowest count is 15.
Enchanted Rock was already believed by them to be home to evil spirits, and they became convinced that those spirits were on the side of Hays, or that he was actually one OF them.
He had two Texas Patersons, a rifle and a Bowie Knife with him.
Standard Indian tactic was to goad a Ranger into shooting OR shooting AT three of them in quick succession, then charging in for a kill before any reloading of his two pistols and a rifle could happen.
That’s how it worked with two single-shot pistols and a single-shot rifle.
Enchanted Rock was their first exposure to someone who could fire 11 shots without reloading.
At one point, he killed a couple of them climbing up after him with his Bowie Knife, another piece of standard equipment for Rangers.
Simple machines are extremely important to everyday life. They make stuff that is normally difficult a piece of cake. There are several types of simple machines. The first simple machine is a lever. A lever consists of a fulcrum, load, and effort force. A fulcrum is the support. The placing of the fulcrum changes the amount of force and distance it will take in order to move an object. The load is the applied force. The effort force is the force applied on the opposite side of the load.
Levers can be placed in three classes. The 1st class levers are objects like pliers where the fulcrum is at the center of the lever. The 2nd class of levers are objects that have the fulcrum on the opposite side of the applied force like a nutcracker. The 3rd and final class is objects like crab claws. These objects of the load at one end and the fulcrum on the other.
An inclined plane is another simple machine.
Inclined planes are also known as ramps. Ramps make a trade off between distance and force. No matter how steep the ramp, the work is still the same. A winding road on a mountain side is a good example of a ramp. Some simple machines are modified inclined planes. The wedge is one of those machines. One or two inclined planes make up a wedge. Saws, knives,needles, and axes are made from wedges. The screw is another modified inclined plane. Screws decrease the force but increase the distance. The ridges are called threads. A couple of simple machines are made with wheels. The wheel and axle is one of these machines.
These are made with a rod joined to the center of a wheel. They can either increase distance or force, depending on the size of the wheel. The pulley is another machine that uses wheels. The are a wheel with a groove in the center with a rope or chain stretched around it. The load attaches to one end and the effort is applied to the other on all pulleys. There are two types of pulleys. The fixed pulley stays in one place while the wheel spins. Movable pulleys attach to objects. Several pulleys can be used at one time. A good example of a pulley system is an escalator. Simple machines make up compound machines. We use these machines daily. Life would be difficult without simple machines.

Essay about Simple Machines
HanicalSimple Machines and its Mechanical Advantage What are Simple Machines ? What do we mean by Mechanical Advantage? Simple Machines * creates a greater output force than the input force Therefore since work is performed by applying a force over a distance, with the use of these machines we can do more work with lesser effort than working with our bare hands. In short, they make work easier. Mechanical Advantage * The Ratio between the input force and the output force. * The measure of the force amplification achieved by using a tool, mechanical device or machine system. Anyway what is input and output force? Input refers to the force you applied while output refers to the resultant force the object has from the input force. Example: I pushed a ball with 10 N of force, it is rolling with 10 N of force. I input 10 N into it, now it is outputting 10 N. The Six Classical Simple Machines The Lever(French word that means “to raise”) * A simple machine that allows you to gain a mechanical advantage in moving an object or in applying a force to an object. It is considered a "pure" simple machine because friction is not a factor to overcome, as in other simple machines . Part | Description | Fulcrum | Is where a solid board or rod can pivot...
Simple Machines Essay
...Simple Machines Definitions: Machine - A device that makes work easier by changing the speed , direction, or amount of a force. Simple Machine - A device that performs work with only one movement. Simple machines include lever, wheel and axle, inclined plane, screw, and wedge. Ideal Mechanical Advantage (IMA)- A machine in which work in equals work out; such a machine would be frictionless and a 100% efficient IMA= De/Dr Actual Mechanical Advantage (AMA)- It is pretty much the opposite of IMA meaning it is not 100% efficient and it has friction. AMA= Fr/Fe Efficiency- The amount of work put into a machine compared to how much useful work is put out by the machine ; always between 0% and 100%. Friction- The force that resist motion between two surfaces that are touching each other. What do we use machines for? Machines are used for many things. Machines are used in everyday life just to make things easier. You use many machines in a day that you might take for granted. For example a simple ordinary broom is a machine . It is a form of a lever. Our country or world would never be this evolved if it wasn"t for machine . Almost every thing we do has a machine involved. We use machines ...
Simple Machine A machine with few Essay
... Simple Machine : A machine with few or no moving parts. Simple machines make work easier. Examples: Screw, Wheel and Axle, Wedge, Pulley, Inclined Plane, Lever Compound Machine : Two or more simple machines working together to make work easier. Examples: Wheelbarrow, Can Opener, Bicycle Inclined plane: A sloping surface, such as a ramp. Makes lifting heavy loads easier. The trade-off is that an object must be moved a longer distance than if it was lifted straight up, but less force is needed. Examples: Staircase, Ramp Lever: A straight rod or board that pivots on a point known as a fulcrum. Pushing down on one end of a lever results in the upward motion of the opposite end of the fulcrum. Examples: Door on Hinges, Seesaw, Hammer, Bottle Opener Pulley: A wheel that usually has a groove around the outside edge for a rope or belt. Pulling down on the rope can lift an object attached to the rope. Work is made easier because pulling down on the rope is made easier due to gravity. Examples: Flag Pole, Crane, Mini-Blinds Screw: An inclined plane wrapped around a shaft or cylinder. This inclined plane allows the screw to move itself or to move an object or material surrounding it when rotated. Examples: Bolt, Spiral Staircase Wedge: Two inclined planes joined back to back. Wedges are used to split things....
Simple Machine Essay
...Simple Machine Joemarie A. Martinez 1-D CE Simple machine Simple machines make work easier by multiplying, reducing, or changing the direction of a force. The scientific formula for work is w = f x d, or, work is equal to force multiplied by distance. Simple machines cannot change the amount of work done, but they can reduce the effort force that is required to do the work! As you can see by this formula, if the effort force is reduced, distance is increased. These simple machines fall into two classes: (i) the inclined plane, wedge, screw characterized by the vector resolution of forces and movement along a line, and (ii) the lever, pulley, wheel and axle characterized by the equilibrium of torques and movement around a pivot. Wedges and screws are both a type of inclined plane; pulleys and wheels and axles are both a form of lever A simple machine is an elementary device that has a specific movement (often called a mechanism), which can be combined with other devices and movements to form a machine . Thus simple machines are considered to be the "building blocks" of more complicated machines . This analytical view of machines as decomposable into simple machines first arose in the Renaissance...

Kinematics: Simple Machine and Prime Mover Essay
Pure motion - motion considered abstractly, without reference to force or mass. Engineers use kinematics in machine design. Although hidden in much of modern technology, kinematic mechanisms are important components of many technologies such as robots, automobiles, aircraft, satellites, and consumer electronics, as well as biomechanical prostheses. In physics, kinematics is part of the teaching of basic ideas of dynamics; in mathematics, it is a fundamental part of geometric thinking and concepts of motion. The development of high-speed computers and robotics, and the growth of design synthesis theory and mechatronics have recently revived interest in kinematics and early work in machine design. Working in the decades following Ampère"s death, Franz Reuleaux (1829-1905) is considered the founder of modern kinematics. Reuleaux called it "the study of the motion of bodies of every kind…and the study of the geometric representation of motion" (Kinematics of Machinery 56). Kinematics flourished in the 19th century as machine inventors learned to transmit information and forces (power) from one element in the machine to another. Steam- and water-based machines revolutionized the l9th century, but both of those energy sources generate circular motions, creating the need to convert these steady circular motions into nonsteady linear and curvilinear motion for machine applications....
