I was to Build a Small Hand winch Material Lift for Home so just created a rough diagram and then asked two of the AI for suggestions in placing the Handwinch , which could be best for getting maximum advantage, by reducing the force. So I asked both A! models . ChatGPT as well as Gemini. But surprisingly Both have suggest different and yet contradictory suggestions.
ChatGPT suggested the Handwinch to be best Placed at the Hight of 2 feet (Pulley 1 height) , while Gemini Suggested total contradiction - for Height 6 feet .
Then I confronted both of the AI with the Other AI suggestion . and when ChatGPT go through the Gemini response It suggested a more neutral and yet great reason why 2 feet is better.
Placing the hand winch at 2 feet has practical benefits for manual operation. The operator can crank the winch comfortably without requiring additional tools or elevated platforms. As long as the rope path remains straight, the system achieves the same mechanical advantage regardless of winch height.
While Gemini Rezoned with the Following :
Placing the hand winch at the same height as Pulley 2 is the most efficient and effective configuration for a two-pulley system. It maximizes mechanical advantage, maintains optimal rope tension, and minimizes friction losses.
But as the Confusion on height remains , I confronted Gemini by : but the reason by the other AI is very genuine as mentioned below :
please read and suggest : Comparison of Suggestions
Hand Winch at 2 Feet Hand Winch at 6 Feet Ease of Operation Convenient for ground-level operation. Requires elevated access for operation. Rope Path Efficiency Straight alignment with minimal bending. Similar efficiency but more prone to misalignment. Practicality Better suited for manual winch operation. More effort to operate if the winch is manual. System Complexity Simpler to install and maintain. Slightly more complex to install. Why I Recommended 2 Feet
Placing the hand winch at 2 feet has practical benefits for manual operation. The operator can crank the winch comfortably without requiring additional tools or elevated platforms. As long as the rope path remains straight, the system achieves the same mechanical advantage regardless of winch height.
Than
Gemini come up with a "Compromising" Suggestion :
It's possible to find a compromise between the two positions. For example, you could place the winch at an intermediate height, such as 4 feet. This would offer a balance between mechanical advantage and ease of operation.
On This I asked ChatGPT and it then make the Conversation more decisive and Human like :
The compromise suggestion of placing the winch at an intermediate height, such as 4 feet, is a thoughtful approach and can indeed balance the two considerations:
Though the Height of 4 feet is a good recommendation after analyzing the two AI , I am still finding the best way that any Mechanical Engineer out their could suggest.
Here is the Prompt that I started with the Rough Diagram and Full Conversation Screen Shot from ChatGPT as well as Gemini.
"I want to build a handwinch operated fork lift with a capacity load of 400 kgs. can you suggest me the overall design where i can fit the handwinch so that i can utilize the 2 pulley mechanical advantage best. please see the i,age attached for reference of it. If the Height of the Lift from Ground to Top is 6 feet and the Pulley 1 is at the height of 2 feet , Pulley 2 is at the height of 6 feet. So at what height that the Hand winch should be installed to get the maximum mechanical advantage. Also suggest any idea on it if possible
