Semi-Automatic Floor Cleaner

We know that are many ways to clean floor, but all these ways take more time. Our aim is to reduce the time by “design and fabrication of a semi - automatic floor cleaning machine” and increase the productivity. By this method the operations can be performed easily. All these methods are time reducing and have to be performed easily which reduce the cleaning time. This method reduces human effort and saves the cleaning time. Apart from other methods this method can be used in places where large area need to be cleaned


I. INTRODUCTION 1.1 CONVENTIONAL MECHANISM
The bulk of mechanical sweepers are mobile devices that gather garbage using a suction system.In most cases, the suction action is supplemented by one or more revolving brushes for dislodging residues that attach to the road's surface.Mechanical sweepers come in a variety of style.They range in size from extremely small pedestrian-controlled devices to big mechanical sweepers mounted on a truck chassis.
Large mechanical sweepers typically have an auxiliary motor to provide the suction and, in some circumstances, a hose that can be operated by an operator to pick up waste from difficult-to-reach regions.The operating speed of the smaller machines is around 2 to 3 km/hr, while that of the larger sweepers is around 10 km/hr or higher.Mechanical

Problem Definition
The pollution is one in all the rising and exponentially growing downside.One in all the key contributors of pollution is harmful soil dust particle.Soil dust square measure generated thanks to heavily growth of road, Construction of buildings, electrical and physical science maintenance pole in roads &etc.These dusts aren't cleaned in time by the metropolitan staff.

Scope of the project
As per the literature survey the efficiency of semiautomatic floor cleaner brush is less, as we are changing the position of brush from vertical to horizontal grab the dust from the floor level also this can increase the efficiency cleaning .But the efficiency not only depends up on brush position but also depends up on roughens of floor .The main motto and scope of the project is to increase the efficiency of cleaning by reducing man power and to make the machine simple in construction and easy to handle.

IV. COMPONENTS OF FLOOR CLEANER
Floor cleaner consists of following major components 1. Battery Sprockets are used in bicycles, motorcycles, tracked vehicles, and other machinery either to transmit rotary motion between two shafts where gears are unsuitable or to impart linear motion to a track, tape etc.Perhaps the most common form of sprocket may be found in the bicycle, in which the pedal shaft carries a large sprocket-wheel, which drives a chain, which, in turn, drives a small sprocket on the axle of the rear wheel.rubbish bin, trash can, and garbage can, among other names, is a type of container intended to store waste that is usually made out of metal or plastic.The words "rubbish", "basket" and "bin" are more common in British English usage; "trash" and "can" are more common in American English usage."Garbage" may refer to food waste specifically (when distinguished from "trash") or to municipal solid waste in general.

WORKING PRINCIPLE OF FLOOR CLEANER
The working principle of a semi automatic floor cleaner involves a combination of mechanical, electrical, and sometimes electronic components.The machine's mechanism controls the movement of the machine, the cleaning brush rotates using the sprocket then the dust is been throws into the collecting bin .

V. CONCLUSION
This project work has provided us an excellent opportunity and experience , to use our limited knowledge.We gained a lot of practical knowledge regarding, planning, modelling, designing and presenting while doing this project work.We feel that the project work is a good solution to bridge the gates between institutions and industries.We are proud that we have completed the work with limited time successfully.We are able to understand the difficulties in maintaining the tolerances and also quality .We have done to our ability and skill making maximum use of available facilities.In conclusion remarks of our project work, let us add a few more lines about our impression project work.The operating procedure of this system is very simple, so any person can operate.By using more technologies they can modified and developed according to the applications.
sweepers are effective in removing light litter, fine dust, and sand from highways [1-10].Mechanical sweepers' usefulness in economically underdeveloped countries is limited to just assisting manual Mechanical sweepers are often seen in developingcountry big urban centers.The extent to which mechanical sweepers are used for a certain application should be dependent on careful consideration of the benefits and drawbacks, as well as the costs involved with employing them vs hand sweepers.Furthermore, mechanical sweepers are notoriously difficult to keep in good working order.Internal systems may be harmed while gathering huge materials unlawfully discarded on the streets.As a result, these devices should be supported by wellequipped maintenance facilities that keep a full inventory of replacement components [11-15].1.1.History of Floor Cleaning The very first street sweeping machine was patented in 1849 by its inventor, C.S. Bishop.For a long time, street sweepers were just rotating disks covered with wire bristles.These rotating disks served as mechanical brooms that swept the dirt on the streets.The first self-propelled sweeper vehicle patented in the US, driven by a steam engine and intended for cleaning railroad tracks, was patented in 1868, patent No. 79606.Eureka C. Bowne was the first known woman to get a patent for a street sweeper, in 1879, patent No. 222447."Her success was great", wrote Matilda Joslyn Gage in The North American Review, volume 136, issue 318, May 1883.In 1896, African-American inventor Charles Brooks improved on then-conventional street sweeping inventions by making the front brushes of different lengths, and by including a mechanism for collection and disposal of debris.The revolving front brushes could also be replaced with a scraper to remove snow or ice.Brooks was granted a U.S. patent for the invention in 1896.Most of the more than 300 street sweeper patents issued in the United States before 1900, including the one in Brooks' patent, had no engine on board.The wheels on the cart turned gears or chains which drove the brush and belt [16-20].
