Abstract: The main aim of the project is to design and fabricate a four-wheeler nut removing tool for
constriction and removing of four nuts in single time. With the increment of number of car on the road,
the number of cars problem due to tyre failure has increased. Often, the car is provided with tyre wheel
nuts remover and jack for instance spare tyre replacement. However, due to difficulty in smearing torque
to remove nut and to save a time. A tool having a gear planetary mechanism is developed. The main
objective of work is to develop a single tool, which can be made use during assembling and disassembling
of wheels in automobiles. It can be successfully used as standard tool nevertheless of the model of the
vehicle. Also, it can be used garages, workshops and service stations. The remover is designed to be
ergonomic to be used, easy maintenance, easy storage, easy to handled and able to remove all nuts at
once.

4.1 Design for compound shaft V. CONCLUSIONS

Normal load acting on pinions tooth (Wn) = WT We have introduced one product that is four-
/cosΦ wheeler multiple-opening spanners for tightening
and removing of the four nuts in a single stroke of a

hand operated lever. We have developed a gear
/ cos 20 =7522
planetary mechanism to reduce the time and effort
Weight of gear (Wg) = of the person. In our project we have tried to focus
0.00118* Tg*b*m2 on the minimization of human effort and time
consumed for fixing all four nuts of the ø112mm

of automobiles, workshops and service stations.
Therefore resultant load on gear (WR) = (Wn2+

(75222+1.72+2*7522*1.7*cos20)0.5 model of the car so in further work we will
change the tool into adjustable type which can

Assuming pinion is overhung on shaft at 30 mm ii. We will try to reduce the cost of the model in
Bending moment on shaft due to WR is M further work.
Then we take M = WR* 30 = 7523*30 iii. The weight of the model is heavy so in future
we will try to reduce the weight by fabricating

And twisting moment on shaft due to WT is T iv. Now operating energy of the model is
T = WT * D g / 2 mechanical energy so in further step we will
