ABSTRACT
The purpose of this project is to replace manual sewage(drainage) cleaning system to automatic machine. Due to this process
workers will feel safe nowadays and healthy. In drainage we can see many solid wastages are collected at one place so to
remove this wastage automatic drainage cleaning machine is used without any man power. It is semiautomatic machine helps to
remove solid wastage easily. Also cost of this machine is less and easy to handle.
This project is designed with the objective to initiate the efficient working of system.
It reduces cost of manual worker, labor as well as reduce risk of human life. So, we designed an "Automatic Sewage Cleaning
Machine" having dimensions millimeters (740mm x 650mm x 1208mm and thickness is 20 mm). Material uses for this is
Stainless steel. Main frame is designed by using steel.
INTRODUCTION
Water is being used very fast in today. The significance of water is mainly used for drinking, cooking and cleaning in our
lifestyle. The water is been used in the factory and the house comes from the drains and reach into the rivers, in the ponds and
in the oceans. In which more solid ingredients (like polythene, bottles etc.) along with water also reaches. We have been built
“Automated drain cleaning machine” with the main purpose of removing those solid materials from drains. This machine can be
established at any point of drain(gutter) easily. It has been Design in such a way that lets water flow through it but collects all
the solid substances in collecting bin and gives a group in the dustbin. This machine is able to do cleaning and moving process
together in the drains/gutters.
This can be used for to overcome the problem of filtration of waste from water and it can save the time and cost that spend on
cleaning the drainage. so to replace our traditional way of cleaning gutter and to save the life of municipality cleaning workers
we design this machine
PROBLEM STATEMENT
The problem of water logging due to plastic, thermoscope and metal
leads to pest growth and it favors diseases like malaria, typhoid etc.
This is unsafe for human life and hence idea of this project emerged.
he objective of proposed project Is to design and fabricate and
automated machine for drainage cleaning in order to prevent humans
from getting affected by various diseases from the infectious
microbes present in sewage while cleaning manually. This proposed
system is to attenuate or overcome the matter faced while using man
operated machine and to attenuate the increased dumping rate of
waste.
JUSTIFICATION
The existing system is totally a mechanical based project. It is a stationary system,
simply kept within the sewage area to gather the wastes passing over it. The chain
and sprocket are used for conveyor movement, which has fitted fork plates to collect
the wastes from the sewage. The rotation of the chain alongside the plates will collect
the floating wastes and postpone the wastes within the bin that's placed at the
backside of the system.
Machine element that contain a constrains relative motion to only the specified
motion, and it reduces friction between moving parts. the planning of the bearing
may, for instance, provide for free of charge of charge linear movement of the
moving part or for free rotation around a hard and fast axis or it's going to prevent a
motion by controlling the vectors of normal forces that bear on the moving parts.
AIMS AND OBJECTIVES
Here are some potential aims and objectives for the project titled "Designing of Automatic Sewage Cleaner":
Aims:-
To design and develop an efficient and effective automatic sewage cleaning system
To reduce manual labor and improve safety in sewage cleaning operations
To minimize environmental pollution caused by sewage overflow and improper disposal.
Objectives:-
To conduct research and analyze existing sewage cleaning methods and technologies
To design a prototype of an automatic sewage cleaner that can navigate and clean sewage pipes effectively
To develop a control system that can detect and respond to sewage blockages and overflow
SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY
The significance of this study lies in its potential to contribute to the global effort to
build up automatic sewage cleaner. Specifically;
Improved Sanitation: An automatic sewage cleaner can help maintain cleaner sewage
systems, reducing the risk of waterborne diseases and environmental pollution.
Enhanced Efficiency: Automation can optimize sewage cleaning processes, reducing
manual labor and increasing the speed of cleaning operations.
Cost Savings: By reducing labor costs and minimizing the need for manual
interventions, automatic sewage cleaners can lead to significant cost savings.
Environmental Benefits: Effective sewage cleaning can help prevent pollution in
waterways and protect aquatic ecosystem
LITERATURE REVIEW
In today era cleaning of water is main and primary purpose. But cleaning of water is done
manually till now. When human cleans the gutters, sewage manually then there will be lost
of risk or health issue which damage human health. So we have come with one automatic
machine which cleans these all sewage and gutters automatically without any help of labor,
humans and risk of these humans life is getting less.
1. R. Sathiyakala, explained E bucket (electronic bucket) use for drainage cleaning system
because E-bucket lifted a sewage and used evaporation treatment for this sewage wet
sewage.
Ganesh U L, showed the usage of mechanical drainage cleaner to exchange the manual
work required for drainage cleaning system. Drainage pipes are very dirty. Sometimes it's
harmful for human life while it's need for cleaning system
Dr. k. kumaresan, explained about how manual work is converted to automated system. Drainage
pipe using for disposal and it's going to be loss for human life while cleaning the blockage within
the drainage pipes. To overcome this problem, they implemented “Automated Sewage(gutter)
Cleaning Machine”. They designed their project different way clearance of gaseous substance are
treated separately therefore the flow of water efficiently. This project could also be developed with
the complete utilization of men, machines, and materials and money.
Nitin Sall, explained flow of used water from homes, apartments, business industries, commercial
activities is called waste water. 300 and 400 L wastage water are generated each person every day.
So, using waste water technology that removes instead of destroys a pollutant during a system.
James C. Conwell, G. E. Johnson, proposed the planning and construction of a replacement test
machine configuration that gives same advantages over the normal one. The new machine and
attendant instrumentation provide more realistic chain loading and permit link tension and roller
sprocket impact monitoring during normal operation.
MARTERIAL AND METHOD
Sprocket - A sprocket or sprocket-wheel may be a profiled wheel with teeth, or cogs, that
mesh with a sequence, track or other perforated or indented material. The name 'sprocket'
applies generally to any wheel upon which radial projections engage a sequence passing
over it.
Chain - Chain drive may be a way of transmitting mechanical power from one place to a
different. it's often wont to convey power to the wheels of a vehicle, particularly bicycles
and motorcycles.
Lifter mount - Lifting equipment, also referred to as lifting bin, may be a general term for
any equipment which will be wont to lift loads. This includes sewages like polythene, plastic
bottles, wastage which generally occurs within the water, thermocol, and other dusty and
sewage partials which comes within the contact thereupon equipment.
the contact of the lifter. When the lifter completes its cycle, it reaches to the bin and
removes all sewage within the collecting bin.
Motor - Electrical motor is electric machine. Main purpose of this motor is to convert
electrical energy into mechanical energy. There are two type of motor AC motor and DC
motor.According to all consideration we have use 90watt output. Required power output
is 70 watts but considering all losses we have chosen 90-watt power output motor with
30 rpm speed and 12 volts voltage with 7amp current.
Main frame - The main frame is crucial part of machine. All forces and stresses are
generated on this main frame. So, we have considered proper material for this frame.
This main frame carries all parts like motor, bearing block, sprocket, shaft and chain so
this frame should be more strengthener.
Shaft- A shaft is a rotating machine element, its cross section is circular, which is used
to transmit power from one part to another part, or from a machine which produces
In the treatment system of drainage, waste water control by the machine and the
collecting bin to achieve automatic control of waste water treatment. Drainage
from domestic and industries is treated through this project to meet the national
CONCLUSIO
emission standards, with stable operation, low cost and good effect. The cleaner
functions moreNS effectively during the heavier rains which has more volume of
running water with garbage and high velocity.
Risk of Labors catching infections or poisoning due to large amounts of waste
and chemicals will be reduced. Automation includes the application of
mechanical, electronic and computer-based systems to operate and control
production. This system is used To Operate Automated Gutter Cleaning System.
