ABSTRACT
These days we are facing the problems like pollutions, power cut problem etc. In order to
overcome these problems, we have thought about the device, which can be performing its
functions without causing any of these problems. So, we have thought of doing the project on
cutting grass, this uses the renewable source of energy for its operation like solar energy. This
project aims at developing a portable solar operated grass cutting device, as there is power
shortage. So, it was decided to make a solar energy operated device. Rapid growth of various
high-tech tools and equipment’s makes our jobs done comfortable and sophisticated. The
project aims at fabricating a grass cutting machine system which makes the grass cutter-based
motor running through solar energy. Due to the continuous increase in the cost of fuel and the
effect of emission of gases from the burnt fuel into the atmosphere, this necessitated the use of
the abundant solar energy from the sun as a source of power to drive a grass cutter. A solar
powered grass cutter was designed and developed, based on the general principle of mowing.
This seminar is deal with designed of solar powered grass cutter comprises of direct current
(D.C) motor, a rechargeable battery, solar panel, a plastic fiber blade and control switch. The
battery recharges through the solar charging controller.

Chapter 1

INTRODUCTION
Grass cutter or lawn mowing with a standard motor-powered lawn mower is an inconvenience,
and no one takes pleasure in it. Cutting grass cannot be easily accomplished by elderly, younger,
or disabled people. Motor powered push lawn mowers and riding lawn mowers create noise
pollution due to the loud engine, and local air pollution due to the combustion in the engine.
Also, a motor-powered engine requires periodic maintenance such as changing the engine oil.
Even though electric lawn mowers are environmentally friendly, they too can be an
inconvenience. Along with motor powered lawn mowers, electric lawn mowers are also
hazardous and cannot be easily used by all. Also, if the electric lawn mower is corded, mowing
could prove to be problematic and dangerous. The self-propelling electric remote control lawn
mower is a lawn mower that has remote control capability. This prototype is robotic user-
friendly, cost effective. A lawn mower (mower) is a machine utilizing one or more revolving
blades to cut a grass surface to an even height. The height of the cut grass may be fixed by the
design of the mower, but generally is adjustable by the operator, typically by a single master
lever, or by a lever or nut and bolt on each of the machine's wheels. The blades may be powered
by muscle, with wheels mechanically connected to the cutting blades so that when the mower is
pushed forward, the blades spin, or the machine may have a battery-powered or plug-in electric
motor. The most common power source for lawn mowers is a small (typically one cylinder)
internal combustion engine. Smaller mowers often lack any form of propulsion, requiring human
power to move over a surface; "walk-behind" mowers are self-propelled, requiring a human only
to walk behind and guide them. Larger lawn mowers are usually either self-propelled "walk-
behind" types, or more often, are "ride-on" mowers, equipped so the operator can ride on the
mower and control it. A robotic lawn mower ("lawn-mowing bot", "mowbot", etc.) is designed
to operate either entirely on its own, or less commonly by an operator by remote control.

1.1 Problem Statement:

The lawn mower industry has not seen any disruption in product development in the recent past.
The advent of electric motors and small sized So as motivated us to implement these
developments into lawn mower designs and also previous human effort and time is being lost
doing a job which is naturally redundant. The usage of highly explosive materials in the regular
household could cause house few and other humanly losses.

The onerous to manage nature of the engine was improved upon by the oversimplified
performance characteristic of the electrical motor we have a tendency to wished to save lots of
this human effort that might be place to raised use.

1.2 Objectives:

➢ To reduce consumption of fossil fuels by using solar power.


➢ The devices will be controlled by android application.
➢ It helps to reduce human efforts for cutting grass.
➢ Its helps to reduce pollution.
➢ This project gives accuracy for grass cutting.
➢ This project has very less cost.

LITERATURE REVIEW

1. Patil S.M. et al, proposed a solar grass cutter called Smart Solar Grass Cutter with Lawn
Coverage. The proposed design aimed to develop an automatic grass cutting machine that
could be remotely controlled, and able to charge the used batteries while the solar powered
grass cutter is operating during daytime.

2. Dilip B.P. et al, used several sensors in their prototype design providing the proposed solar
grass cutter the capability to avoid the unnecessary objects and/or obstacles in the field during
operation.

3. Asha N. et al, proposed a programmable robot that is able to work either autonomously or
wirelessly using an Android Smart phone via Bluetooth from a safe distance. The grass cutter
can cut the grass according to preset shapes while the blade was able to be adjusted to
maintain the different length of the grass. The robot is a dual powered with a Hybrid Solar
panel and Lithium-Ion rechargeable battery. This programmable robot is used to decorate the
lawn and encourage the implementation of the renewable energy resources.

4. Ulhe P.P. et al, fabricated and modified the solar grass cutter that can be used to cut the
different grasses with different applications. A remote-control unit was added to help the
unskilled persons to operate it. The used battery in the designed grass cutter can be charged
by using solar panels regardless of the operating conditions. An AC charging system and
spiral cutting blades were used to increase the cutting efficiency.

5. Amrutesh P. et al, designed a solar grass cutter by implementing a linear blade and Scotch
Yoke mechanism. The cutter was coupled with PV panels installed at 45 degrees angle and
Lithium-ion battery as the power supply. The used solar charger has automatically controlled
the charging from the solar panels when it was required. However, the authors found that the
Scotch Yoke mechanism did not produced the expected efficiency. Solar based automatic
grass cutter was fully automated grass cutting robotic vehicle powered by solar energy

6. Gaikwd Y.M. et al, the device was capable of fully automated grass cutting without the need
of any human interaction. The working principle of this project is the micro-controller
moving the motors in the forward direction if there is no obstacle detected and vice versa if
the sensor detects any obstacle. Smart is related to current technologies where the researchers
want to integrate the current technologies into their daily life.

7. R. Sivagurunathan et al, in this study, a hand-held operated machine for grass cutting was
designed and fabricated by using locally available materials. Important aspects such as
durability, strength, and light weight were taken into design considerations for better
performance characteristics.

8. Z. I. Rizman et al, in this study an improved controller of machine cutter capable to improve
grass cutting process become easier. The manoeuvre of the machine is controlled by radio
frequency (RF) remotely, where the transmitter embedded in the remote control while the
receiver is placed at the lawnmower. The RF signal is transferred by the remote control to
the lawnmower via the antenna (joystick).

9. A. P. Pralhad et al, in this study a Solar Powered Automatic Grass Cutting and Pesticide
Spreading robot project is mainly proposal for reduce the manpower and usage of electricity.
Solar plate is used to provide the source to the battery charging. It is an automated system
for the purpose of grass cutting. The source is drive from the solar energy by using solar
plate.

10. Ms. Y. Rutuja A et al, in this study we analysis the problems facing by us in daily life that
are like pollutions, power cut etc. In order to overcome these problems, we have thought
about the device, which can be performing its functions without causing any of these
problems. So, we have thought of doing the project on cutting grass, this uses the renewable
source of energy for its operation like solar energy. This project aims at developing a portable
solar operated grass cutting device, as there is power shortage.

11. S. Mohyuddin et al, in this study we analyze that anormal grass cutter moving with IC
engine will run based on the energy from petrol. The major drawbacks of this technology are
high running cost; create noise pollution and air pollution. Also, an IC engine requires
periodic maintenance such as changing the engine oil, mechanical maintenance. It is an
innovative technology of cutting grass without any pollution, electric solar grass cutter are
environmentally friendly.

12. Srishti Jain, Amar Khalore and Shashikant Patil, this paper proposes a solar powered
vision based robotic lawn mower which is an autonomous lawn mower that will allow the
user the ability to cut the grass with minimum effort. Unlike other robotic lawn mowers in
the market, this design requires no perimeter wires to maintain the robot within the lawn and
also with less human effort in the manual mode operation.

13. Ms. Nayana V. Chavan, Ms. Monika B.Patil, Prof. V.A. Mane, In this paper they are
trying to make a daily purpose robot which is able to cut the grasses in lawn. The system will
have some automation work for guidance and other obstacle detection and the power source
that is battery and a solar panel will be attached on the top of the robot because of this reduces
the power problem. The grasscutter and vehicle motors are interfaced to an 8051-family
microcontroller that controls the working of all the motors.

14. Bidgar Pravin Dilip, Nikhil Bapu Pagar, Vickey S. Ugale, this paper describes manually
handled device is commonly used for cutting the grass over the field which creates pollution
and loss of energy. Automatic solar grasscutter which will reduce the effort required for
cutting grass in the lawns. Also, solar power will be used to provide the driving force for the
cutter and various sensors will be used to detect and avoid the unnecessary objects in the
field during operation.

15. Ms. Bhagyashri R. Patil, Mr. Sagar S. Patil, for human enlargement in many countries
there are studies and trials going on the solar energy and the wind energy, so they made their
new concept solar power grass cutting machine. In this concept they cut the grass on the
agricultural land or small plants in lawns and gardens. The design of solar powered
agricultural equipment will include direct current (DC) motor, a rechargeable battery, solar
panel, a stainless-steel blade and control switch. The automatic grass cutting machine is
going to perform the grass cutting operation by its own which means no manpower is
mandatory. The purpose of the project here is to design and build a remote-controlled grass
cutter.

Pin Description:

ALE/PROG: Address Latch Enable output pulse for latching the low byte of the address during
accesses to external memory. ALE is emitted at a constant rate of 1/6 of the oscillator frequency,
for external timing or clocking purposes, even when there are no accesses to external memory.
(However, one ALE pulse is skipped during each access to external Data Memory.) This pin is
also the program pulse input (PROG) during EPROM programming.

PSEN: Program Store Enable is the read strobe to external Program Memory. When the device
is executing out of external Program Memory, PSEN is activated twice each machine cycle
(except that two PSEN activations are skipped during accesses to external Data Memory). PSEN
is not activated when the device is executing out of internal Program Memory.

EA/VPP: When EA is held high the CPU executes out of internal Program Memory (unless the
Program Counter exceeds 0FFFH in the 80C51). Holding EA low forces the CPU to execute out
of external memory regardless of the Program Counter value. In the 80C31, EA must be
externally
wired low. In the EPROM devices, this pin also receives the programming supply voltage (VPP)
during EPROM programming.

XTAL1: Input to the inverting oscillator amplifier.

XTAL2: Output from the inverting oscillator amplifier.

Port 0: Port 0 is an 8-bit open drain bidirectional port. As an open drain output port, it can sink
eight LS TTL loads. Port 0 pins that have 1s written to them float, and in that state will function
as high impedance inputs. Port 0 is also the multiplexed low-order address and data bus during
accesses to external memory. In this application it uses strong internal pullups when emitting 1s.
Port 0 emits code bytes during program verification.

Port 1: Port 1 is an 8-bit bidirectional I/O port with internal pullups. Port 1 pins that have 1s
written to them are pulled high by the internal pullups, and in that state can be used as inputs. As
inputs, port 1 pins that are externally being pulled low will source current because of the internal
pullups.

Department of Mechanical Engineering, MITE, Moodabidri Page 9


Fabrication of solar operated grass cutter

Port 2: Port 2 is an 8-bit bidirectional I/O port with internal pullups. Port 2 emits the high-order
address byte during accesses to external memory that use 16-bit addresses. In this application, it
uses the strong internal pullups when emitting 1s.

Port 3: Port 3 is an 8-bit bidirectional I/O port with internal pullups. It also serves the functions
of various special features of the 80C51 Family as follows:
Port Pin Alternate Function
P3.0 RxD (serial input port)
P3.1 TxD (serial output port)
P3.2 INT0 (external interrupt 0)
P3.3 INT1 (external interrupt 1)
P3.4 T0 (timer 0 external input)
P3.5 T1 (timer 1 external input)
P3.6 WR (external data memory write strobe)
P3.7 RD (external data memory read strobe)

VCC: Supply voltage

VSS: Circuit ground potential.

3.1.2 Dc motor:

Fig 3.4 DC motor

A DC motor is any of a class of rotary electrical machines that converts direct current electrical
energy into mechanical energy. The most common types rely on the forces produced by magnetic
fields. Nearly all types of DC motors have some internal mechanism, either electromechanical
or electronic, to periodically change the direction of current flow in part of the motor.

3.1.3 Battery:

Fig 3.5 battery

An electric battery is a device consisting of one or more electrochemical cells with external
connections provided to power electrical devices such as flashlights, smartphones, and electric
cars. We have used 12V 1.3Ah battery in this project. Batteries may be used once and discarded,
or recharged for years as in standby power applications. Miniature cells are used to power devices
such as hearing aids and wristwatches; larger batteries provide standby power for telephone
exchanges or computer data centers.

3.1.4 Cutting Blade:

Fig 3.6 cutter blade

A blade is that portion of a tool, weapon, or machine with an edge that is designed to cut and/or
puncture, stab, slash, chop, slice, thrust, or scrape surfaces or materials. The blade is seldom
sharp enough to give a neat cutting. The blade simply tears the grass resulting in brown tips.
However, the horizontal blades are easy to remove and sharpen or replace. Existing engine
trimmers suffer from high initial cost, high levels of engine noise, high fuel consumption rates
and high operator’s fatigue in long-run.

Department of Mechanical Engineering, MITE, Moodabidri Page 11

3.1.5 Wheels:

Fig 3.7 wheels

The plastic wheels will be connected to the DC motors. As soon as they create the torque,these
wheels will help the move. These will be required for motion of the lawn mower. The choice of
wheels used largely depends on the shape and size of the lawn. It will also depend on the ground
clearance of the lawn mower.

3.1.6 Arduino uno:

Fig 3.8 Arduino uno

The Arduino Uno is a microcontroller board based on the ATmega328. It has 20 digital
input/output pins (of which 6 can be used as PWM outputs and 6 can be used as analog inputs),
a 16 MHz resonator, a USB connection, a power jack, an in-circuit system programming (ICSP)
header, and a reset button. It contains everything needed to support the microcontroller; simply
connect it to a computer with a USB cable or power it with a AC-to-DC adapter or battery to get
started.The Uno differs from all preceding boards in that it does not use the FTDI USB-to-serial
driver chip. Instead, it features an ATmega16U2 programmed as a USB-to-serial converter. This
auxiliary microcontroller has its own USB bootloader, which allows advanced users to

Department of Mechanical Engineering, MITE, Moodabidri Page 12


Fabrication of solar operated grass cutter

reprogram it.The Arduino has a large support community and an extensive set of support libraries
and hardware add-on “shields” (e.g., you can easily make your Arduino wireless with our Wixel
shield), making it a great introductory platform for embedded electronics. Note that we also offer
a Spark Fun Inventor’s Kit, which includes an Arduino Uno along with an assortment of
components (e.g., breadboard, sensors, jumper wires, and LEDs) that make it possible to create
a number of fun introductory projects.
This is the 3rd revision of the Uno (R3), which has a number of changes:

❖ The USB controller chip changed from ATmega8U2 (8K flash) to ATmega16U2 (16K
flash). This does not increase the flash or RAM available to sketches.
❖ Three new pins were added, all of which are duplicates of previous pins. The I2C pins
(A4, A5) have been also been brought out on the side of the board near AREF. There is
a IOREF pin next to the reset pin, which is a duplicate of the 5V pin.
❖ The reset button is now next to the USB connector, making it more accessible when a
shield is used.

3.1.7 Relay:

Fig 3.9 relay

A relay is an electromagnetic switch that opens and closes circuits electromechanically or


electronically. A relatively small electric current that can turn on or off a much larger electric
current operates a relay. Relays work like some electrical products since they receive an electrical
signal and send the signal to other equipment by turning the switch on and off.

3.1.8 Bluetooth Module:

Fig 3.10 Bluetooth module

HC-06 Bluetooth module to transfer the commands from android smart phone to the system.
This HC-06 Bluetooth module is mounted on the system along with some relays. Initially user
connects its smart phone with this module. After a successful connection user can provide the
desired direction change command to the system from maximum 10-meter distance. Also, user
can switch ON and OFF the grass cutter through its mobile using the android application. HC-
06 Bluetooth module is mainly used for short-range wireless connectivity.

3.1.9 Solar Panel:

Fig 3.11 solar panel

Department of Mechanical Engineering, MITE, Moodabidri Page 14


Fabrication of solar operated grass cutter

solar panel is a set of solar photovoltaic modules electrically connected and mounted on a
supporting structure. A photovoltaic module is a packaged, connected assembly of solar cells.
The solar panel can be used as a component of a larger photovoltaic system to generate and
supply electricity in commercial and residential applications. Each module is rated by its DC
output power under standard test conditions (STC), and typically ranges from 100 to 320 watts.
The efficiency of a module determines the area of a module given the same rated output - an 8%
efficient 230-watt module will have twice the area of a 16% efficient 230-watt module.

3.1.10 Bin:

Fig 3.12 Bin


The trimmed lawn, with the help of a rotating brush is guided into a storage unit. The storage
unit we have used is of length 34cm, breadth 14cm and height12cm. Collecting trimmed lawn
improves the ambience of the area, as trimmed lawn dries quickly and spoils the scene of green
lawn by forming lumps of dried grass throughout. The collected lawn can be dried, converted
into compost and used as manure for a variety of vegetation.

3.1.11 Brush:

Fig 3.13 Brush


It is used for collecting the lawn which has been trimmed by the motor. As the brush rotates, it
guides the trimmed lawn into a storage unit. We have used a roller brush of length 33cm and
10cm diameter.

Fig 3.14 Major components of Android OS

Applications: These are applications written in Java. Some of the basic applications include
calendar, email client, SMS program, maps, making phone calls, accessing the Web browser,
accessing contacts list and others. This is the layer which an average user uses the most, rest of
the layers are used by programmers, developers and hardware manufacturers.

Application Framework: This is the skeleton or framework which all android developers have
to follow. The developers can access all framework APIs and manage phone’s basic functions
like resource allocation, switching between processes or programs, telephone applications, and
keeping track of the phone’s physical location. The architecture is well designed to simplify the
reuse of components. Any application can publish its capabilities and any other application can
then make use of those capabilities. Content providers enable application to access data from
other applications. Resource manager provides access to non-code resources such as graphics,
localized strings and layout. Notification manager displays custom alerts in the status bar.
Activity manager manages the life cycle of an application and provides common navigation.
Application framework is a set of basic tools with which a developer can build much more
complex tools.

Libraries: This layer consists of Android libraries written in C, C++, and used by various
systems. These libraries tell the device how to handle different kinds of data and are exposed to
Android developers via Android application framework. Some of these libraries include media,
3D graphics, SQLite, Web browser library etc. The Android runtime layer which includes set of
core java libraries and DVM (Dalvik Virtual Machine) is also located in same layer.

Runtime Android: This layer includes set of base libraries that are required for java libraries.
Every Android application gets its own instance of Dalvik Virtual Machine. Dalvik has been
written so that a device can run multiple VMs efficiently and it executes files in executable (.Dex)
optimized for minimum memory.

Kernel-Linux: Android relies on Linux version. This layer includes Android’s memory
management programs, security settings, power management software and several drivers for
hardware, file system access, networking and inter-process communication. The kernel also acts
as an abstraction layer between hardware and the rest of the software stack.

Keil is a cross compiler which is capable of creating executable code for a platform other than
the one on which the compiler is run. Cross compiler tools are used to generate executables for
embedded systems or multiple platforms. It is used to compile for a platform upon which it is
not feasible to do the compiling, like microcontrollers that don't support an operating system.
Keil development tools for the 8051 Microcontroller Architecture support every level of software
developer from the professional applications engineer to the student just learning about
embedded software development. When starting a new project, simply select the microcontroller
you use from the Device Database and the µVision IDE sets all compiler, assembler, linker, and
memory options for you. Keil is a cross compiler. So first we have to understand the concept of
compilers and cross compilers. After then we shall learn how to work with keil.

4.6 Working Principle:

The working principle of solar grass cutter is it has panels mounted in a particular arrangement
at an in such a way that it can receive solar radiation with high intensity easily from the sun.
These solar panels convert solar energy into electrical energy. This electrical energy is stored in
batteries by using a solar charger. The main function of the solar charger is to increase the current
from the panels while batteries are charging, it also disconnects the solar panels from the batteries
when they are fully charged and also connects to the panels when the charging in batteries is low.
The designed solar powered lawnmower comprises of direct current (D.C) motor, a rechargeable
battery, solar panel, a fiber blade and control switch. Mowing is achieved by the D.C motor
which provides the required torque needed to drive the blade which is directly coupled to the
shaft of the D.C motor. The solar powered lawnmower is operated by the switch on the board
which closes the circuit and allows the flow of current to the motor which in turn drive the blade
used for mowing. The battery recharges through the solar charging controller. Performance
evaluation of the developed machine was carried out with different types of grasses. The main
function of the solar charger is to increase the current from the panels while batteries are
charging. It also disconnects the solar panels from the batteries when they are fully charged and
connects them when the charge in batteries is low. The electrical energy stored in the battery is
transmitted to various motors through connecting wires. From the motors, the power is
transmitted to the wheels, brush and cutter threads.

4.7 Performance Factors:

The device has to be evaluated on some factors to find out its working efficiency, and if it is
convenient practically or not. Some of the factors are:

Department of Mechanical Engineering, MITE, Moodabidri Page 30


Fabrication of solar operated grass cutter

1. Cutting Time: It is one of the basic factors, which effects the performance of the device to
a great extent. It is defined as the time required by the lawn mower to trim lawn in a unit
area. As time is the most valuable resource in the present days, this factor becomes most
important in determining the usability of the device.

2. Trimmed lawn condition: Whether the cut made to the lawn is clean or not, and if the height
of the trimmed lawn is uniform or not are two very important factors in determining the
performance of the device. The desired outcomes are uniform and clean trimming of lawn.

3. Movement Pattern: Movement pattern is an important factor. If the lawn mower moves
over a previously trimmed area, it leads to wastage of energy and time. Hence, the movement
pattern must be decided before-hand to avoid this un-necessary wastage of resources.

4. Power requirements: Power requirement decides the efficiency of the device. The power
requirement of the device decides the energy consumed for trimming a unit area of lawn.
More the power requirement, more is the energy required to trim unit area of lawn.
