CONSTRUCTION OF PORTABLE WHEEL - BARROW


ABSTRACT

After detailed study on machines and levers, the construction work started as follows:

Making out, pattern development, cutting filling, drilling, machining, assembling, welding and finishing. Detailed procedures carried out are located at the sequence of operation in subsequent pages.

The machine has scale of 1:5 in all parts of its dimensions. However, brief dimensions are given below:

  1. Upper surface of bowl — 850mm
  2. Inner surface of bowl — 335mm
  3. Stand height — 325mm
  4. Diameter of wheel — 250mm
  5. Diameter of shaft seating and the shaft 4mm
  6. Thickness of type — 75mm

The drawing of the project was done and enclosed at the end page of this booklet. At last, a 150kg capacity of conveying machine was constructed.


CHAPTER ONE

1.0 Introduction

1.1 Historical Background

Few centuries ago, the task of conveying loads around was so cumbersome. Very minor loads could be carried from one point of the other. The distances covered during the period of weak was less whereas the time expended on the short covered distance was much. Also, there were no appreciable accomplishment of words, there were continually loss of man-power as much effort and energy was spent on conveying loads.

Loads were carried on human heads which was generally unsafe.

Consequent upon these limitations, man started devising means on how loads could be carried from one point to another with ease. Before 13trh century, wheel-barrow was first constructed in china. The type of wheel-barrow then had its wheel under the cargo box. This conveyor helped the Chinese then to execute most of their works. But, yet, smaller quantity barrow due to the weak mechanical strength of material for continuation.

In 13th century proper an improvement on the type of wheel-barrow that were in China was constructed and used in Europe. This type had its wheel at the front of the machine on like that of the Chinese which had its wheel at the back of the cargo. These conveyors in those days could only convey less loads and could withstand less stress due to the deficiencies in the strength of the materials used for construction.

But, as time went on, there was and have been improvement and advancement in technology and there is how knowledge on how mechanical strength of construction materials can be improved thus, guaranteeing capability of machines to the function they are intended for.


1.2 Need For Constructing The Machine

The need of constructing this machine conveyor, arose as a result of difficulty being encountered daily on carrying of loads from points to points. By the construction of this conveyor, loss of man-power, money, time and difficulties encountered during load conveying is reduced.

  1. To establish a convincing fact in terms of technological acquired knowledge.
  2. To contribute to technological advancement of the society.
  3. To leave a legacy for the upcoming and prospective Engeers.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)


Is the topic “Design and Implementation of Online Post-UTME System” recommended for Computer Science (CS) Project?

Yes it is highly recommended — Registration for the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination, UTME, is organised by the Joint Admission and Matriculation Board, JAMB, for admission into tertiary institutions in Nigeria. This registration is conducted in all the states in Nigeria in a given period of the year. Many a times, the process is cumbersome, not organized and posses a lot of stress to students. So, the goal of this project is to provide a readily accessible and user- friendly system for students to register for UTME online and also to access the result of the examination online. This would be similar to other online registration forms, but it will also feature the following advantages; as a web-based system, students will be able to have access …


Can the material for “Development of the Domestic Airport Terminal” be used as a guide for Architecture Project?

Yes it can be used — The airport terminal is a building at an airport where passengers transfer between ground transportation and the facilities that allow them to board and disembark from the aircraft. Within the terminal, passengers purchase tickets, transfer their luggage, and go through security. The buildings that provide access to the airplanes (via gates) are typically called concourse. However, the terms terminals and concourses are used interchangeably, depending on the configuration of the airport. A functional airport passenger terminal is meant to ease the stress encountered by air passengers during the process of air travel. Therefore the architectural problem of the project is how best to provide an aesthetically pleasant, efficient, economical, bigger and more modern domestic airport passenger terminal, with good flexibility …
