    This document describes the design and construction of an automatic brake system for use in hill stations. The system uses a ratchet gear and pneumatic cylinder to engage the brakes. When the reverse brake button is pressed, compressed air activates the pneumatic cylinder, which moves the piston rod to engage the braking mechanism. This gradually or suddenly brakes the wheel, with braking speed controlled by an adjustable flow control valve. The system aims to reduce power loss during transmission and provide easy, low-cost braking for automobiles and industrial applications in hilly areas.

    FABRICATION OF AUTOMATIC BRAKE IN HILL STATION

    ABSTRACT
    The proposed mechanism is to reverse break using ratchet gear. By reverse locking
    the differential the differential is disengaged from the axle. Thus the power is
    directly transmitted to the axle and hence to the wheels. This will considerably
    reduce the power loss in some occasions when unwanted loss is happening due to
    the transmission if power from the shaft to the ratchet gear and then to the axle and
    hence to the wheels. So in mechanism the unwanted power loss in the due course
    of transmission through the gear wheel is reduced.
    INTRODUCTION
    • The technology of pneumatic has gained tremendous importance in the field
    of workplace rationalization and automation from old-fashioned timber
    works and coal mines to modern machine shops and space robots.
    • It is therefore important that technicians and engineers should have a good
    knowledge of pneumatic system, air operated valves and accessories.
    • The air is compressed in an air compressor and from the compressor plant
    the flow medium is transmitted to the pneumatic cylinder through a well laid
    pipe line system.
    • To maintain optimum efficiency of pneumatic system, it is of vital
    importance that pressure drop between generation and consumption of
    compressed air is kept very low.
    WHAT IS BRAKE?
    • A brake is a mechanical device which inhibits motion.
    • A common misconception about brakes is that brakes squeeze against a
    drum or disc, and the pressure of the squeezing action slows the vehicle
    down. This is in fact a part of the reason for slowing down a vehicle.
    • • actually brakes use friction of brake shoes and drums to convert kinetic
    energy developed by the vehicle into heat energy.
    • • when we apply brakes, the pads or shoes that press against the brake drums
    or rotor convert kinetic energy into thermal energy via friction.
    LAYOUT OF AUTOMATIC BRAKE IN HILL STATION
    COMPONENTS
    • Ratchet wheel
    • Pneumatic cylinder
    • Solenoid valve
    • Flow control valve
    • Hose and Connector
    • Push Button
    • Wheel
    • Frame stand
     
    CONSTRUCTION
    Our proposed model “REVERSE BRAKE APPLIED IN HILL STATIONS” need
    so many raw materials which are mentioned in above chapter.For that materials
    first of all we purchased the raw materials based upon requirement and for that
    we’ve planned to how to buy. After bought we cut raw materials in required
    dimensions in precise manner by using hand wheel cutting machine. After that
    we’ve gone for some rough turning and finishing by using lathe and grinding
    machines. After that for assembly purpose we went for welding for permanent joint
    wherever we require and joined with rivets wherever we require rigidly fixed
    joints. After that we had given connections to the solenoid valve, pneumatic
    cylinder, and brake button with air compressor. Now our model construction
    totally completed.

    WORKING PRINCIPLE
    • When if you need the reverse brake, applied to the reverse brake button, if
    the solenoid valve is activated, the compressed air passes to the Single
    Acting Pneumatic Cylinder.
    • The compressed air activates the pneumatic cylinder and moves the piston
    rod. If the piston moves forward, then the breaking arrangement activated.
    • The breaking arrangement is used to break the wheel gradually or suddenly
    due to the piston movement.
    • The breaking speed is varied by adjusting the valve is called “FLOW
    CONTROL VALVE”.
    ADVANTAGES
    • Brake cost will be less.
    • Free from wear adjustment.
    • Less power consumption
    • Less skill technicians is sufficient to operate.
    • It gives simplified very operation.
    • Installation is simplified very much.
    • To avoid other burnable interactions viz.… (Diaphragm) is not used.
    APPLICATIONS
    • For automobile application
    • Industrial application
