Construction of a Foot-Operated Washing Machine and its Design

Abstract

The purpose of the current research project is to find a solution to the issue of people not having access to electricity, which pollutes water bodies and is harmful to health. Many rural women in developing nations are among the least fortunate and unable to wash their own clothes. Although the majority of the world now has access to electricity, numerous attempts have been made to develop a solution for these areas and to address these issues; however, either the project itself or its beneficiaries do not have access to electricity. The majority of things get very expensive in India, or they cost a lot to fix, and machines in villages and hilly areas don't get maintained. Electricity supply costs a lot of money. Therefore, to resolve the aforementioned issue, we imported replacement parts. As a result, the project requires the selection of a washing machine with the following goals: manually. It requires no power supply or diesel supply. It is a machine that converts the pedaling motion into the necessary rotary motion of the inner drum of a washing machine by employing bevel gears and shafts to use the power generated by human pedaling. This is a minimal expense project and can be moved without any problem. It is a green project designed to benefit society as a whole. We offer a cost-effective and efficient method of washing clothes through this social project. Bevel gears, washing machine, design, fabrication, pedal power, and
