技 能 可 持 续

水是生命之源,获得清洁的饮用水是人类赖以生存的基础,在水资源稀缺的国家和地区更是如此。
本期#技能可持续#,让我们提前揭晓世界技能博物馆的一件神奇展品——净水自行车。一起来一睹真容,感受技能的力量吧。
A bike that can pump and produce clean water will be on display at the WorldSkills Museum.
“多快好省”的技能利器
由加拿大谢尔丹学院师生开发的一款脚踏式净水系统将在中国上海的世界技能博物馆展出。这一系统能为难以获得清洁饮水、电力供应不稳定或者没有供电的地区生产饮用水。
A pedal powered water purification system developed by students and faculty at Sheridan College, Canada, will be on display at the WorldSkills Museum under development in Shanghai, China. The system can produce drinking water for communities where access to clean water is a major challenge and which have unreliable or non-existent electricity supplies.
在大约80转/分钟的速度下,这款五级反渗透净水装置每分钟可以产出6升洁净水。
At approximately 80 r.p.m, the five-stage reverse osmosis pedal powered water purification produces six litres of clean water a minute.
这个系统被人们亲切地称为“净水自行车”,是2017年阿布扎比世界技能大赛的工业机械修护竞赛项目。项目涵盖了所有与工业机械修理行业相关的技能,包括机械加工、焊接、装配、精密对准、布局、精密手工作业等。
The “water bike”, as it’s affectionately called, was the test project for the Industrial Mechanic Millwright skill competition at WorldSkills Abu Dhabi 2017. The task drew on all the skills associated with the Industrial Mechanic Millwright trade, including machining, welding, fabrication, precision alignment, layout, and precision hand work.
位于上海黄浦江畔的世界技能博物馆,将探寻和颂扬技能工作者身上跨越时间和文化的价值。
The WorldSkills Museum, situated on the banks of the Huangpu River in Shanghai, China, will celebrate and examine the value and role of skilled workers across time and cultures.
“其中一个展厅将聚焦技能工作者如何努力解决世界面临的一些最棘手的环境和社会问题,获得清洁的饮用水就是其中一个问题。而且许多贫困地区缺乏建设高价基础设施的资源。”世界技能博物馆项目负责人哈米达·加富尔说。
“One of the galleries will look at how skilled workers are trying to solve some of the most intractable environmental and social problems facing our world – and having access to clean drinking water is one of them. What’s more, many poor communities lack the resources to build expensive infrastructure,” says Hamida Ghafour, WorldSkills Museum Project Curator.
“净水自行车的特别之处在于它既便宜又实用。例如,它可以放置在湖泊或河流附近,每分钟就能输送6升洁净水。它是一个很好的示范,充分展示了技能工作者对如何建设一个更加美好的世界的思考。”
“What was striking about the water bike is that it’s cheap and practical. It can be placed near a lake or river, for example, and pump six litres of clean water every minute. It is a terrific example of skilled workers thinking about how they can build a better world.”
“我们还将在净水自行车的旁边设置一个动手操作的互动平台,让游客了解它是如何工作的。他们将坐在一辆固定的自行车上,双脚蹬踏板,然后看到屏幕上的水位上升。”哈米达说。
“We are also going to have adjacent to the water bike a hands-on interactive for visitors to see how it all works. Sitting on a stationary bike, they will pump the pedals and see water levels increase on a screen,” she said.

技能的宗旨:创造一个更加美好的世界
净水系统的原型是在谢尔丹学院的工作坊中设计和建造的,指导整个项目的是应用科学技术学院实验室负责人西蒙·希思科特和克雷格·布拉齐尔教授。
The final prototype of the water purification system was designed and built in Sheridan College’s workshops under the direction of Simon Heathcote, Lab Manager in the Faculty of Applied Science and Technology, and Craig Brazil, professor and coordinator of the IMM program.
“我们很自豪有机会在世界舞台上展示我们自己工作室的项目,”克雷格说,他同时担任世赛工业机械修护项目的技能竞赛经理。
“We were proud to have the opportunity to showcase a project from our own workshops on the world stage,” says Brazil, who also served as the Industrial Mechanic Millwright Skill Competition Manager for WorldSkills.
这是谢尔丹学院麦格纳技工院的学徒、大专学生和机电工程技术院的学生第一次为一个项目共同努力。
For the first time at this scale, apprentices, and post-secondary students from Sheridan’s Magna School for the Skilled Trades and student members from School of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering Technology joined efforts in a shared project.
世界技能博物馆项目总监马克·卡拉汉说:“净水自行车很好地展现了世界技能组织、成员国、合作伙伴和支持者之间的合作将怎样为博物馆的所有参观者带来激动人心的体验。”
“The inclusion of the water bike is a great example of how the collaboration between WorldSkills, our Members, partners, and supporters will deliver an exciting and inspiring experience for all visitors to the WorldSkills Museum,” says Mark Callaghan, WorldSkills Museum Project Director.
“正是通过这种合作,世界技能博物馆将突出技能劳动者在历史上和在未来的重大意义,同时向游客展现如何用技能建立一个更加公平的世界——这也正是博物馆的主题之一。”
“It is through this collaboration that the Museum will highlight the importance of a skilled workforce, throughout history and into the future, as well as providing visitors with an understanding of how a more equitable world can be built with skills – just one of the many themes of the Museum.”
目前,净水自行车正在摩洛哥被用于培训水资源管理技术人员。
The bike is now being used for training water management technicians in Morocco.
世界技能组织向联合国工业发展组织捐赠了净水自行车的原型。阿布扎比世赛结束时建造的7个脚踏式净水系统也被送往工发组织的学习和知识发展基金,用于一个正在进行的项目,以解决摩洛哥的水资源短缺问题。
WorldSkills donated the prototype to the United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO). The seven pedal-powered purification systems built at the end of the competition were also sent to UNIDO’s Learning and Knowledge Development Facility for an ongoing program addressing the scarce water resources in the North-African country.
