Pedal Operated Washing Machine

Abstract

Pedal power is the transfer of energy from a human source through the use of a foot pedal and chain drive system. This technology is most commonly used for transportation and has been used to propel bicycles for over a hundred years. Less commonly pedal power is used to power agricultural and hand tools and even to generate electricity. Some applications include pedal powered laptops, pedal powered grinders and pedal powered water wells. This project concentrates on pedal powered washing machine. The basic Principle of this machine is Sprocket and Chain system; the concept of this Mechanism is that the pedalling is converted into rotary motion and offers us higher transmission efficiency.
