DESIGN AND FABRICATION OF PEDAL POWER

WASHING MACHINE
ABSTRACT
In the developing world, washing laundry is a difficult, time-consuming
task the falls solely on women. Mothers and daughter typical spend 8 hours
each week scribing each piece of their familys clothing and writing out the
harsh washing solution by hand.
Powered washing machine exist, but they are impractical in rural reasons
because running water and electric are expensive or unavailable. Several groups
already tried to build a machine for the regions but they have been
unsuccessful. Their machines were either to build and repair because they
improved parts or they do not wash effectively.
Our invention is a low cost, pedal power washing machine that designed
around readily available parts. Its innovation is its simple design and its use
inexpressive plastic barrel and bicycle components. The parts are available
locally, so we can be manufactured and repaired in the community without
depending on imported goods.

PREFACE
Our eager effort to choose the PEDDLING WASHING MACHINE for our project
work promised to be very exciting from the point of view of both the manufacture and
application. PEDDLING WASHING MACHINE is the most efficient.it is used for
wash the cloth by means of applying pedal. Peddling washing machine is one of the
most compact and efficient models. It is find useful application in the wash the cloth by
means of applying pedal in very less time.

HISTORY:
One of consequences of globalization is that there is great competition in the
market and it is increasingly specialized.Every day,there are more types of
washing machine.the available models get more and more effective
noiseless,economical,light and their design adjust to the place where you want to
place them.that is why you should exactly know the types of machine you are
looking for,its particular features and the key questions you should ask the
salesperson.

There are many kinds of washing machine. Some of them are for industrial use and
others for consumer use ;some have top-loading and others front-loading design ;some
of them include spin dryer and others do not. Now a days,many washing machines
offer digital technology that help you control details such as time,speed and vibrations
during the drying process.Modern machines goal is to finish a great load of working in
a short time, with the less possible users help.

 As a consequence of the great variety of machines in the market, you should take
many fundamental aspects into account ,such as what you will use it for for industrial
or consumer use, how often you will use it daily or weekly , and the room you have
for it large or tight .

1. INTRODUCTION:In our developing country, rural women are among the least privileged. Women are
both essential to the family unit and integral to the economy, yet they rarely have equal
opportunities for career development, or social status when compared to men. One factor
behind the inequality is the long list of responsibilities that traditionally fall to women. Not
only do women perform agricultural duties and care for livestock alongside men, but
women are also responsible for many domestic works. Usually, new technology improves
peoples efficiency, but women benefits less from new technology for several reasons. First,
womens duties are neglected by technological improvement efforts because of domestic
works are often seen as cultural obligations for women little efforts is expended to diminish
them.
Second, foreign aid in the form of appropriate technologies is unevenly distributed
because women are often considered less technically competent than man. Factors like this
these tend to prevent the development of improvement technology for womens
uncompensated, time-consuming, and laborious task. Our team intends to directly address
the plight faced by laborious task. Our team intends to directly address the plight
faced by women by developing a pedal-powered washing machine. An average woman may
do two to three loads per week for a family about four children and her husband. It
generally takes at least 8 hours of washing time , not including the extra time needed to
walk to the public washing machine reservoir or hang up clothes to dry.
Additionally, while washing machine clothes by hand, women spend hours learning
over a concrete basin. Clothes are washing by laboriously scrubbing each section of clothes
over a cement washboard with their hands immersed in detergents that are harmful to
the skin.

The pulley works like the wheel on the bike. The belt attaches it to the generator.
This allows the work done on the bike to be translated to the generator. The belt and the
pulley are each one of six simple machines, commonly used for all sorts of mechanical
projects.

On pedal power devices the type of pulley needed is divided between whether the
pedal-power device replaces a motor device (as in the case of the washing machine), or if
the pedal power device generates electricity (as in the pedal-powered television) The motorreplacing devices commonly use a shaft-mounted drive pulley. However the pulley
for electricity-generating devices uses a fan belt.

BEVEL GEAR

BALL BEARING
A ball bearing is a type of rolling-element bearing that uses balls to maintain the
separation between the bearingraces.
The purpose of a ball bearing is to reduce rotational friction and support radial and
axial loads. It achieves this by using at least two races to contain the balls and transmit the
loads through the balls. In most applications, one race is stationary and the other is
attached to the rotating assembly. As one of the bearing races rotates it causes the balls to
rotate as well. Because the balls are rolling they have a much lower coefficient of friction
than if two flat surfaces were sliding against each other.
Ball bearings tend to have lower load capacity for their size than other kinds
of rolling-element bearings due to the smaller contact area between the balls and
races. However, they can tolerate some misalignment of the inner and outer races.

BICYCLE PEDAL

BOLTS & NUTS

A nut is a type of fastener with a threaded hole. Nuts are almost always used
opposite a mating bolt to fasten a stack of parts together. The two partners are kept
together by a combination of their threads' friction, a slight stretch of the bolt, and
compression of the parts. In applications where vibration or rotation may work a nut
loose, various locking mechanisms may be employed: Adhesives, safety pins or lock
wire, nylon inserts, or slightly oval-shaped threads.
The most common shape is hexagonal. for similar reasons as the bolt head - 6
sides give a good granularity of angles for a tool to approach from (good in tight spots),
but more (and smaller) corners would be vulnerable to being rounded off. Other
specialized shapes exist for certain needs, such as wing nuts for finger adjustment and
captive nuts for inaccessible areas.

BOLTS:Bolts are defined as headed fasteners having external threads that meet an exacting,
uniform bolt thread specification such tha cutting, as well as for more closely controlled operations. Each
process has particular capabilities and limitations. Special applications include shape cutting, grooving, gouging,
and underwater cutting.

WASHING MACHINE:

Although the breakthrough technology of the different brands turns each

washing machine into a unique device, we can define the minimum and basic
function of a washing machine.The washing machine has a central loading
cylinder with holes and a spinning system on its own axis.once it is filled with

water,the process ends and throws the machine contents out.

Its function is based on a spinning movement over a container,generally of
cylindrical shape.Inside of it,water,detergent and dirty clothes are mixed.This
movement mixes the detergent with dirtiness and relative movement between
water and clothes,which developes the cleaning process.Automatic washing
machines have program system that allows the machine to perform the different
cleaning processes.according to the one you choose,spinning speeds vary as well
as the time and choosen temperature.

 The basic component of the machine are:

CONSTRUCTION
Construction a cylindrical drum using metal of require dimension. Present the
bicycle and make the bicycle carriers using tube, angles or other flat irons available. All
elements are together to the bicycle. Slots are drilled into the plates, which allow for the
adjustment of teh voltage belt. Place the bicycle on the chassis, measuring using a string the
length of the belt if necessary. Drill hour holes into the flame and secure. Use chain to
transmit power from pedal to pulley putting it in place, tighten tender and the machine is
ready effectively.
Clean your clothes, the rotation of the tank should not be too fast about 70- 80 rpm.
Manufacture, use and maintenance of the pedal powered washing machine is available.

GEARING
The machine uses a regular mountain bicycle transmission which can provide
gar ratios between 1:1. The user is expected to turn the pedal of the machine about 70 rpm
the wash cycle and a higher 80 rpm during the dry cycle, where the lack of resistance from
makes pedalling easier. With a inner drum diameter of 19in, at a 1:1 gear ratio, pedalling at
70rpm results in a centripetal acceleration on the clothing of about 0.87g, which results in
efficient clothing tumbling. For the spin cycle, the user would which switch to the highest
available gear, and a pedal speed of 80 rpm in an acceleration of 20 kg. This has been shown
to extract
50% of water from wet cotton clothing; remaining water weight in clothing is approximately
90% of the dry fabric weight comparable to commercial vertical axis washing machine.

WORKING PRINCIPLE
Basically it separate like as a washing machine. But in this project we dont use the
electric power to move the washing machine wheel. We are using cycle pedal; by
pedalling the washing wheel be moving. We use in it two pulley which ratio is 1:4, means
when small one is moving 4 times big one is rotating ones. After the power transfer through
a bevel gear, though another pulley; which is connect to the end of the bevel gear. When
we moving the first pulley 1time; means the washing pulley will rotate 16times. During, this
clothes will be wash.

CONCLUTION
As per curriculum vitae of mechanical engineering we introduced pedal powered
washing machine. We introduced this for an alternative for washing machine in this
power cry sis situation. Here, we are having a low cost washing machine with cycle power,
it ca n be used as an exercise equipment. It is a low cost, economical & energy saving.
