Enterprises in east China’s Jiangsu province have exerted their efforts to supply products for the Beijing Winter Olympics that will take place in less than one month.
China's first variable-angle inclined elevator designed and produced by a company in Changshu was used in the recently-concluded National Ski Jumping Center Test Competition.
This elevator, with the longest running length and the largest load capacity in the world, has a height of more than 130 meters and a travel distance of more than 240 meters. The one-way ride takes less than two minutes, ensuring that ski jumpers can get back from the ground quickly to the start of the track.
Installed in the world's largest ski jumping venue and also one of the most technically difficult competition venues, the elevator needs to overcome the special climatic environment such as low temperature, freezing and strong wind, and also need to conquer a section of arc-shaped track.
The company's R&D team finally completed the project design by carrying out thousands of experiments within 4 months.A company in Yangzhou provides thermal insulation materials for uniforms and equipment for the Winter Olympics and Paralympic Games by using a patented multi-layer structure of new thermal insulation flakes.
An enterprise in Jurong produced 7,000 sets of knitted hats and knitted gloves made of recyclable materials.
An ultrasound machine developed by a company in Suzhou weighs less than 4 kilograms and is equipped with a highly sensitive capacitive touch screen to serve athletes in the Winter Olympics.
