DESIIGN & FABRIICATTIION OFF MANUALLLLY DRIIVEN PEDALL

POWEREDWASHIING MACHIINE

ABSTRACT
Cloth washing is one of the essential parts of the life but it is considered undesirable because of
the involvement of efforts, time, energy and cost. Nowadays a wide variety of washing machines
are available in the market and there is a tough competence among the manufacturers. The cost
of washing machine varying from Rs.10,000 to1,50,000 depending upon features and
capabilities. Very costly washing machines are equipped with facility of dry cleaning too. All of
the washing machines available in the market are electric power driven and basic principle of
their operation depends upon creation of the turbulent flow of detergent around the dirty clothes.
Drying of the clothes is based upon rotation of wet clothes at very high rpm so that water
droplets can be separated out due to centrifugal action. In our country where approximately 70%
population is living with very poor economic status, those people cannot have a washing
machine because of cost constraints and unavailability of electricity due to any reason. The
present work is an attempt to develop a concept to make a cloth washing mechanism which can
meet out the requirements of above mentioned 70% population of the nation. Working principle
of this concept is no more different from available similar type of machine with a difference
driving mechanism of the machine. The objective of bringing down the initial cost and operating
cost of washing machine is almost achieved in present work within the limitation of work as
mentioned.

WORKING OF PEDDLING WASHING MACHINE

  The main important thing is how the pedal powered washing machine works?

 Here after manufacture we are starting a working of the peddling washing

machine. First of all open the both the door of the inside and outside drums. Then put
up the cloth in the drum. After put up the cloth according to requirement put the
5 to 10 liters water and the washing  powder.

 Now close the both the door. And sit on the cycle and starting up to applying a pedal with
slowly .After 15 to 20 minutes applying the pedal stop the applying the  pedal
and see what’s happens. Then removes the inside water with the help of below pipes in
the one doll or other objects. After removing the water apply the some pedal its gain the
heat inside the drums and its help into the drying the cloth. Then remove the cloth from
the drum.

VALUE AND SERVICE

 Uses 66% less water than a top load agitator washer 

 Uses 50% less energy than a top load agitator washer 

 Uses 75% less laundry additives than a top load agitator washer
 EASE OF USE

It is easy to use by younger and older women. After loading the machine, Washing
requires three c y c l e s . B e t w e e n e a c h c y c l e , t h e d r u m s p i n s q u i c k l y t o d r a w
t h e w a t e r o u t O f t h e c l o t h i n g , a s i t drains out of the drum. In the first cycle,
water and detergent are added to the drum. The operator  pedals the machine for roughly
25 minutes, spins, and drains the water. The next two cycles are rinse cycles. In each rinse
cycle, the operator pours clean water into the Machine, pedals for 10 minutes, spins,
drains the drum. After the last rinse cycle, the operator Spins the clothes dry and
saves the s l i g h t l y s o a p y w a t e r f o r t h e n e x t w a s h c y c l e . O u r r e s e a r c h i n t o
existing washers and our
e a r l i e r  prototypes indicate that the power required for washing and spinning is relatively low. 
We demonstrated that it is not difficult to spin a perforated Plastic drum up to
extraction speeds with clothes inside. For these experiments, we used a  Geared
transmission from a bicycle. Both younger and older women can generate enough
power for the wash and spin cycles. We Estimate this power t o b e 5 0 - 7 5 w a t t s .
While familiarity with pedaling in general and the machine In particular
w i l l reduce the effort expended by the user, no prior experience will be necessary for Its
operation. The ability to change gearing ratios will allow some level of tuning to individual
Users and also allow for shorter wash times with more power input or conversely less strenuous
Operation if the user can pedal for a longer amount of time.
 JUSTIFICATION

EFFICIENT

It is much more efficient to wash clothes using than to use the manual
washing tanks. It’s also requires less energy when compared to vertical
a x i s w a s h i n g m a c h i n e s . T h e h o r i z o n t a l a x i s o f   rotation uses less power
because it rotates continuously without changing directions. The operator  does not
need to combat the momentum and drag forces of a barrel full of water. The operator does Not 
need to lean over the washing tank and submerge her hands in the soapy water. Instead, theo p e r
ator sits on the seat and pedals most of the time. She only needs get  up
t o   l o a d   t h e m a c h i n e , change the water and unload the machine. This leaves her
hands free to work on making crafts and keeps them out of the harmful detergent.
EASY TO BUILD AND MAINTAIN

Unlike any of the other alternatives, its uses locally available materials or recycled
bicycle parts. It can be produced in any area that has prevalent bicycle technology
and things like plastic buckets.
Since the parts are widely available, it can serve as a basis for loc
a l   e n t r e p r e n e u r s   t o   s t a r t microenterprises which would stimulate the
l o c a l e c o n o m y . A n o t h e r a d v a n t a g e o f u s i n g l o c a l l y available parts is that
easy to repair. It is mechanically simple enough that any bicycle repair shop would
be able to service the pedal-drive.
APPLICATION

 It is very useful into the local rural areas.

 Saving in detergent and the water 

 Scale free tub

 Reduced traces of detergent on clothes

 Better wash quality

 Softer clothes

 Easy to operate and the less effect of chemical on the women hand.

 Exercise is also done with the applying the pedal.

ADVANTAGES
PPWM offers certain advantages over a standard (simple) washing machine used. Listed
below are some of the advantages –

Eco friendly and non-polluting in every way.

Less noisy

The machine has low manufacturing cost. It is highly economical and affordable to all
class of people.

Works without electricity so it can be an ideal machine for the people in the electricity
deficient Indian villages

Less tiring than conventional washing techniques by hand. This would greatly contribute in
increasing the productivity of the manual laundries all over the world.

Lesser chances of failure than electronic washing machine as the mechanical systems
used in the machine have stood the test the time.

More reliable: Due to simplicity of design the chances of failure are reduced drastically
thus making the machine all the more reliable.

Lesser maintenance required: Maintenance of PPWM involves mostly lubricating the

various parts which can be done even at home so maintenance cost are drastically cut down.

Zero operating cost: Since the machine is manually driven.

Very effective in protecting the hands of washer men from the harmful effects of the
chemicals in the detergents.
It would help to reduce the physical stress which is applied on the hands during washing
clothes.

It encourages pedaling which is a good physical exercise and keeps oneself fit. A
person now can easily wash clothes while performing daily exercise which would save
time.
It is a product made up of recycled scrap.
