Senior year is almost over with and it's time for an engineering project. I've already done my 46 H for my senior project and now I have to do a project for my enineering class. I've taken 6 college classes including this year and this final class wraps up everything by making us come up with a new invention or improving an existing product. My idea is to make a new style gate latch. My issues that I'm basing this on is: 1: With the chain style latches that wrap around a post to latch you can cut your arm on barbed wire or shock the crap out of yourself if you hit the hot wire(it's happened to me many times.)
2:With the pull up latches that are multidirectional the animals can open them. We have somewhere around 10 cows that know how to open the latches in one of our newer barns which is an issue lol. Have any of you out there ever had these problems? I figured who better to ask than people that deal with the issue? This will help back up my claim for making a new design. Thanks for your time!!
