Brunswick's Mechanics and Interworkings
I want to tell you abt Brunswick a little. how he works and his mechanics. it makes me love him so much! hes my pinsetter 🥰 The GS-X is amazing. It has a sweep wagon sweep release assembly tipper ball cushion assembly transport band pin elevator pin count detector distributor setting table pin plate detectors. 2 different kinds of solenoids. Black intermittent one and red continuous one that can be energized for 90 seconds. The CPU (Central Processing Unit) is located in the low voltage part of the box on top of the high voltage box. It is the brain of pinsetter. It energizes the solenoids and calculates the score and sends it to the computer. That's the basics. One cool thing is the stroke limiter. It is in charge of how and when the setting table is lowered. One setting is the setting table comes down to check the score. There is a T stop to prevent the table from coming down all the way. When its time to set the pins down for a new frame the solenoid for the stroke limiter moves a part of the pinsetter out of the way so the T stop can pass amd allow the setting table to go down all the way to reset the pins. I love the stroke limiter.The ball detector that detects when a ball passes by to trigger the sweep release asembly to drop the sweep wagon with the tipper works by sending a lazer across the lane horizontally. When it gets interupted it sends a signal the ball has passed and the sweep wagon is dropped. Same concept for the foul line. When the foot crosses the foul line it triggers in the system there is a foul and the pinsetter doesn't count the score in that frame
