5 Heath Robinson
(Уильям) Хит Робинсон (William) Heath Robinson (1872—1944) был английским художником, который в течение многих лет выдумывал и рисовал фантастические машины, которые выполняли простейшие операции, такие как открыть кран, подать чай или включить свет. Его приборы, в которых использовалась масса верёвок, рычагов, шкивов, весов, пружин восхищали читателей юмористического еженедельного журнала «Панч», и появилось выражение a Heath Robinson device/contraption (прибор, штуковина), обозначающее любую излишне сложную систему для решения самых простых задач.Mary's rigged up a Heath Robinson device to keep the sun out of her kitchen. I can't see why she doesn't just use a blind. — Мэри соорудила невообразимую штуковину, чтобы защитить от солнца свою кухню. Я не понимаю, почему она не использует жалюзи.
