On February 13, the Zhangjiakou Chongli Competition Area of the Beijing Winter Olympics was filled with snowflakes. In the flying snow, a red locomotive van semi-trailer train is very conspicuous, which is a domestic snow wax car made in Shandong, China, and its application technology and related equipment are independently developed to fill the domestic gap. Since the start of the Olympic Games, snow wax cars have worked an average of more than 16 hours a day, providing snowboard waxing, short-term rest and other services for cross-country skiers, silently helping the cross-country skiing team to achieve good results behind the scenes.
"I remember a few years ago, when I went out to participate in cross-country skiing competitions, I had to borrow the equipment from others, and the maintenance of the skis needed to be done by myself or an instructor." Hades Badrihan, a member of the national cross-country skiing team who successfully completed the men's 15 km traditional technical competition in cross-country skiing at the Beijing Winter Olympics, recalled. But today, Hudders and his teammates not only use professional equipment, but also have their own special snow wax car. "Our domestic snow wax car has a large space and high technology content, and the guarantee is too powerful!" Hades smiled and gave a thumbs up.
"Our support team came to Chongli with the snow wax truck in early January to prepare for the battle." Guan Xiaoyan, secretary general of the Beijing Winter Olympics Snow Wax Vehicle Joint Research Project Headquarters and director of the Light Industry and Textile Industry Division of the Department of Industry and Information Technology of Shandong Province, told reporters that before the official start of the competition, the support team provided support for the training of cross-country skiing teams, and under the leadership of the Shandong Provincial Department of Industry and Information Technology, the Shandong Provincial Sports Bureau and other units, it made careful arrangements in technical services, system construction, team management, epidemic prevention and control, party branch construction, etc., and studied and compiled the "Snow Wax Vehicle Service Guarantee Manual", "Vehicle Daily Inspection System", "Accessories Inspection System", "Accessories Inspection System", "Parts Inspection System" A series of work specifications such as the air conditioning operation rotation plan, the epidemic prevention and control manual, and the relevant data shooting guide, the team members are on standby 24 hours a day.
With the opening of the Olympic Games, the snow wax car has also entered the busiest period. "Snow wax trucks provide waxing services for all members of the continental cross-country ski team, with an average working hour of more than 16 hours a day, sometimes running 24 hours a day, and up to more than 600 pairs of snowboards are tested and waxed every day." Guan Xiaoyan introduced. In the cold weather and ice and snow environment of minus 20 degrees Celsius, the support team overcame many difficulties, worked continuously, strictly implemented various work systems, actively checked the risks of vehicle and equipment operation, and detected early and prevented early, so that the snow wax car was always in the best condition.
It is reported that the 16 support personnel who rushed to Chongli came from the Shandong Provincial Department of Industry and Information Technology, the Shandong Provincial Sports Bureau, the China National Heavy Duty Truck Group, the Shandong Provincial Sports Industry Group, the Shandong Provincial Industrial Design and Research Institute, the Haier Group and other units. The security work was officially launched on January 12 and has been working continuously for more than a month. Although they were not able to reunite with their families for the Chinese New Year during the Spring Festival, the protection team did not complain. "Hosting the Winter Olympics is a major event for the motherland, and we are very proud to contribute our Shandong strength to the Winter Olympics!" Guan Xiaoyan said emotionally.
The temperature in the car has been maintained at about 25 degrees, the PM2.5 index has been maintained in single digits, the waxing table design is more humanized and novel, and the workbench lighting is sufficient... The snow wax car provides a comfortable environment for the waxer to work, and has won praise from the leaders, coaches, waxers and athletes of the national cross-country ski team. Due to the birth of domestic snow wax vehicles, the national cross-country skiing team that did not have a snow wax car with the team in the past has a "strong support". In the cross-country skiing competition that has ended, Chinese athletes have repeatedly refreshed the record of Cross-country skiing in China. Cross-country skiing male athlete Wang Qiang, who took the oath at the opening ceremony of the Winter Olympics on behalf of the athletes, and Dinigal Yilamujiang, a cross-country skiing female athlete who lit the main torch, both created personal bests in the snowboards used in the competition, and the snowboards used in the competition were waxed and maintained on the snow wax trucks.
