Design and Fabrication of Low Cost Portable Lawn Mower
Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Engineering and Technology - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 10
Abstract
In current days, grass cutter machines are operated by fuel and electrical energy which are costly and requires high maintenance. Hence, in this study, a hand-held operated machine for grass cutting was designed and fabricated by using locally available materials. Important aspects such as durability, strength, and light weight were taken into design considerations for better performance characteristics. The lawn mower was powered by a 12V/1.35A rechargeable battery which drives the DC motor up to a rotational speed of 19,300 RPM. As a result, the generated torque will be transferred to the cutting head mechanism for efficient grass cutting. The entire configuration set up was mounted on a wooden base which attached together with a bicycle frame and a set of wheel arrangement. This portable lawn mower can be used to maintain and trim grass in gardens, home, schools or yards. Keywords:grass cutter, bicycle frame, lawn mower, hand-held, battery, portable
