CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 Introduction Sand is used mostly for any kind of construction. For the purpose building construction, pure and absolute sand should bed needed. But almost all kinds of sand have some impurities. To solve this problem sand sieving machine is used. The working procedure and mechanism of a sand sieving machine are so easy and user friendly. Before the invention of this machine, people were sieving sand manually. It was too much time consuming that decreased productivity. But this machine does the same thing automatically that improves productivity as well as save time. Sands are put into this machine and this machine removes all kinds of impurities such as small rock, large- grained particles, coal, clay, and so many things, and finally, you will get the pure and fresh sand. To improve productivity, ensure the quality of construction, for saving time, this machine can solve many more such problems in an instant. There are various types of sand sieving machine present at the market. They are too heavy as well as bulky. For this reason, those machines are not portable at all easily. But this machine is small in size as well as very light in weight but performs the same thing that other machines do. The attached wheels ensure the mobility of this machine easily. On the other hand, this machine can separate in part by part so easily that anyone can attach or detach any part easily when needed.
1.2 AIM AND OBJECTIVE
Time consumption is very less. Operation is easy and suitable for home farm. To design and fabricate new sieve machine. Small and portable sieve machine.
1.3 OUTLINE FOR PROJECT
There are four chapters in this project. Chapter one is introduction. Chapter two concerns with components of sieving machine. And then in chapter three design calculation of sieving machine. The discussions, conclusion and recommendation are included in chapter four. 2
CHAPTER 2 Components of Sieving Machine 2.1 Bolts and Nuts A nut is a type of fastener with a threaded hole. Nuts are almost always used in conjunction wit a mating bolt to fasten multiple parts together. The two partners are kept together by a combination of their threads’ friction, a slight stretching of the bolt, and compression of the parts to be held together.
2.2 Mild steel of iron flat bar
These are 5 mild steel metal pieces of 10 mm thickness and are of different length Cutting is done to get exact dimensions from the raw material. 3
2.3 L-section channel
There are three L-section channels of 1.25’’ 1.25’’ width and 5mm thickness of different lengths.
2.4Crankshaft A crankshaft is a shaft driven by a crank mechanism consisting of a series of cranks and crankpins to which the connecting rods of an engine is attached. It is a mechanical part able to perform a conversion between reciprocating motion and rotational motion. 4
2.5 U Beam U Beam is a type of steel beam, which is a structural steel product with multiple uses mainly in the construction sector. U-Beams are also known as a parallel flange channel or C Beams. They typically can be welded together to form l-Beams.
2.6 Ball Bearing
Miniature and small bearings are used for extremely high speeds. These bearings offer a low level of noise, vibration, and frictional torque performance. Miniature and extra-small ball bearings can be sealed by shields or rubber seals to prevent leakage of lubricating grease or entry of dust. Since the appropriate quantity of a high quality lubricating grease is factory sealed, the sealed miniature and extra-small ball bearings allows simplification of sealing devices around the bearing and facilitates easy handling. 5
2.7 CONNNECTING ROD
A connecting rod is the part which connects to the crankshaft. Together with the crank, the connecting rod converts the reciprocating motion of the piston into the rotation of the crankshaft. The connecting rod is required to transmit the compressive and tensile forces from the piston. 6
CHAPTER 3 CALCULATION OF SIEVING MACHINE 3.1 Work done for sieving machine m = 1kg(sieve) F = 80N (assume human effort) Speed of crank shaft, N = 50 rev/min Diameter of crank shaft, d = 3 inches = 3x2.54 = 7.62 cm v = π dN / 60 = π / 60 x 50 x 0.0762 v = 0.1994 m/s displacement, s = 5 cm = 0.05m work done = F x s = 80 x 0.05 = 4Nm(J) 7
CHAPTER 4 DISCUSSIONS, CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATION 4.1. DISCUSSIONS Sand sieving machine serves to remove large grains from small grains through a sieve. Sand sieving machine is using for separating wanted sand from unwanted material.
4.2. CONCLUSION In the large journey of completion of this project we’ve applied all our theoretical knowledge that we’ve learnt during out fifth year of Engineering as well as throughout our student life. We had been given several objectives which we’ve never worked in an industry and never had any experience of working in such environment. After all the parts being manufactured, we’ve taken several dry test of the machine and made sure it works according to the design. And then finally we begin analysis on different sheets having different thickness to compare the time taken during production and hence productivity of our machine. We have encountered many challenges throughout the completion of project but we tackled them all thanks to the good chemistry among we project member and also better supervision at the industry helped us a achieving all the objectives.
4.3 RECOMMENDATIONS In this project, fixed sieved is used for home farm. If the sieve is adjustable, different sizes of the nuts can be filtered, which depends on mesh size used. Through this project one can get rid of manual separation which is time consuming. Next project should be run by DC motor which is connect or supplies electricity via adapter. 8
