Fabrication of Battery Operated Weeder

The document describes the design and development of a battery-operated mechanical weeder. It aims to provide farmers an easy way to control unwanted crops while reducing labor requirements, time, and environmental degradation compared to traditional hand weeding methods. The design uses a battery-powered motor that drives connector arms in an arrangement to simulate digging motions and automate the weeding process. A bill of materials lists the components needed including an MS plate, bolts, screws, battery, motor, gears, shaft, and wheels. The mechanical weeder is intended to help farmers by reducing the manual labor of weeding.

AIM
 This Concept involved the development
of mechanical weeder, after discovering
that tools such as cutlass and hoes
require high drudgery, time consuming
and high labour requirement.
 As a solution to these problems,
mechanical weeder was designed and
developed
Problem Description
 To provide best opportunity to farmers to
easily control unwanted crops.
 To reduce the environmental degration
and pollution.
 This device can be used to reduce the
man power and reduce time
consumption.
Literature survey
 Presence of weeds in general reduces crop yield by 31.5
per cent (22.7 % in Rabi season and 36.5 per cent in Kharif
and summer season). Yield losses due to weeds were
about 65 per cent depending on the crop, degree of weed
infestation, weed species and management practices.
Presently available weeder mostly runs by tractor or power
tiller, these are large in size, cannot work for low inter row
spaced.India is second larger producer of rise. And it is
essential to remove unwanted corps. It is a plant that
completes with crop for water, nutrients and light. Weed
takes 30 to 40 percent of applied nutrients resulting in yield
reduction. More than 33 percent of the cost incurred in
cultivation is diverted to weeding operations there by
reducing the profit share of farmers.
Design
Working
 The traditional method of hand weeding is time
consuming. In this Battery drive motorized weeder.
 we use motorized system, which is powered by
battery.
 It consists of connector arms to stimulate digging
motion in a particular arrangement to automate
this task.
 This system is made up of high-power motor,
couplings, connector arms, mounts and joints,
screws, wheels and rods, battery, handles to hold
the weeder.
