Hello, I've come along to tell you about an invention of mine called the Party Popper Machine.
你们好，我来这里是想告诉你们我的一项新发明，叫
Here is a diagram of the machine and I'll just explain how it works.
这是机器的图纸，我会解释其工作原理。
It's basically a set of interconnected cogs and wheels that rotate in turn and cause a party popper to pop!
基本上这就是一组相互连接的齿轮和轮子，循环旋转，让派对礼花爆炸。
The process begins with what I like to call the party starter! It's located on the top of the base at the front.
整个过程开始于我想命名为“派对前菜”的装置，它在基座顶端前方。
I was very fond of wind-up toys when I was young, but sadly I couldn't find a way to attach a winder to this contraption, but I think this big round button looks nice and dramatic and my children fight over getting to push it!
我还小的时候，非常迷恋发条玩具，但令人伤心的是，我找不到任何方法能把上发条的钥匙装到这个精美的装置上，但我认为这个巨大的圆形按钮看起来也不错，富有戏剧性，我的孩子们抢着去按下它！
The button activates 2 a mall motor that's housed directly under the box at the front.
这个按钮会激活一个小马达，其正位于前面这个盒子的底下。
It generates enough power to get everything going but not so much that it overheats and needs a cooling fan!
这能产生足够的能量完成任务，但不至于太过分使其过热，需要散热风扇。
The legs elevate the base and help with that.
这些支架会升起基座，帮助前面环节的运行。
The base also has another use as it can also hold up to 10 spare party poppers, so you never need to worry about running out.
基座还有另一个用处，它能容纳10个备用派对礼花，所以你永远不用担心会用光。
Once the motor is running, it turns the spiky 3 wheel that is attached to the loaded party popper.
一旦马达开始工作，它会带动装有大钉的轮子，和装好的派对礼花相连。
I call this the detonator!
我称之为“引爆器”。
As it turns, the string of the party popper slowly wraps around it and is pulled tighter and tighter until it explodes! So much fun!
在轮子旋转时，派对礼花的线会缓慢缠绕上去，拉得越来越紧，最后爆炸！多么有趣啊！
