FABRICATION OF PEDAL-POWERED DRILLING

ABSTRACT This project deals with the design and fabrication of pedal powered drilling .The aim of our project work is to develop a modernized operation for cutting wood and plastic materials. It is very useful for cutting PVC materials. It can be used widely in lathe and in furniture making industries. Since the manual effort by cutting through pedaling a wheel is much lower than cutting by hand. Hence this project is very useful in our day to day life. NTRODUCTION The pedal powered drilling, has a simple mechanism operate with chain and sprocket gear arrangement. As by pedaling the wheel rotary motion is converted into the To and Fro motion of the cutting tool It takes very simple. The rotary motion is converted in to linear motion by crank and pinion arrangement. The size and shape of this setup is similar to cycle. It is like a cycle is added with a bed for cutting a work piece. As it required very low pedaling power it can be operated by very low power. Chain mechanism is used thus it transmit power without much of loss. Lubrication of chain and crank arrangement is made by grease and oil. Bearing is used for the smooth transmission of rotary motion in to the rake and pinion arrangement.
