FABRICATION OF THE A METALLIC BOOKSHELF

ABSTRACT  Knowledge could only be obtained successively by the use of books for research. This can be achieved only by preserving books already purchased. As a result we fabricate a metallic shelf made up of metallic sheet. Precisely mild steel sheets. The mild steel used for the fabrication of the shelf is 1.5mm (16gauge) mild steel.  The shelf is made up of 3 partition. In fabricating the metallic shelf several process where involved. We plundered on the material to be used that can hold...

DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION OF A METALLIC BOOK SHELF

ABSTRACT This project aims at designing and constructing a book metallic shelf hose capability will be to contain different standard sizes of books at minimum paces. What is taken into consideration in this project are the cost of its production, processes, and maintenance. Other considerable factors are the functional aspect of the plant/equipment and its durability as well as the reliability. Portability, stability and the physical appearance of the entire equipment. TABLE OF CONTENTS Tit...

CONSTRUCTION OF A SCREW CONVEYOR WITH A SINGLE PHASE ELECTRIC MOTOR

ABSTRACT In the society at large Technology is fast replacing the crude method of carrying out work and has been making room for employment. Besides, it has also caught the attention of the youths who will prefer to work in a company with technological operations than one with man-power operations. This project can be used to convey materials ranging from those in powdery forms grit forms, and stones in the size of crushed granites. If applied to the foundry technology practical (sand mould)...

CONSTRUCTION OF A POTABLE ELECTRIC OPERATED WITH RADIO CONTROL (WIRELESS REMOTE) MOTOR VEHICLE FOR LONG VALVE BUS

ABSTRACT  Construction of a potable electric operated motor vehicle for long Volvo Bus. In this project involves the knowledge of mechanical engineering workshop technology and engineering material science and strength. This was exactly what we were taught. We contracted the electric car with the actual dimension of long Volvo bus(Ml-) got from the catalogue and we enlarged the scale by 1: 8mm. aluminum cord was used in the construction of the vehicle body because of its light weight and it...

CONSTRUCTION OF A MOBILE REFRIGERATOR

ABSTRACT  This write up is a detain of the process and formulation of plan for the physical realization of the construction of a mobile cooking system. It as divided into chapters, which discussed extensively the practical refrigerator cycle with attention given to constriction factors, working principle and choice of materials. The method used in the fabrication, assembly and arriving as knowing the safety requirement were not left out. It is strongly believed by the authors that his will ...

BENCH SHAPING MACHINE

PREFACE Our purpose of embarking on the construction of a project of this kind to present a very vivid and understandable fact that if given the necessary supports, that we the youths and engineers in potentials can more this country forward as regards to technical know how. Such a bird eye view right from time immemorial had proved that lot of time and money has been wasted without any reason. Money in the sense that the nation has been spending the hard earned foreign exchange on importati...

AN ELECTRIC POP-CORN MACHINE

ABSTRACT An electric popcorn machine is machine that is used to popcorn for human consumption. It uses electricity as it sources of energy, transfer it energy, that is used to pop the Corn. Also it has a stirrer, which rotate due to the convection of electrical energy from the source to mechanical energy in the motor, the stirrer tons the corn so that it will not burns.  This project went as far as meeting most of the requirement of advancement in technology, which lead to make-work easy an...

DESIGN AND FABRICATION OF A PRINTING I BLOCK MACHINE

ABSTRACT Parameters on which clear prints depends were comprehensively investigated.  The study revealed that clear print depends on the impressed pressure the working temperature and the gold foil print paper life expectancy. Also studies were he manner of dependence of these parameters on prints impressed  on sheets of varied thickness.  The results of these investigation were  utizlied in the design and fabrication of an operational manual printing machine using gold foil   sheet depo...

THE DESIGN AND FABRICATION OF A IRON SHELLING MACHINE

ABSTRACT. A machine for corn Sheller is highly and greatly needed for consistence of usage of corn in local and international levels. With regards to this indispensable need, a corn-shelling machine is designed which operates to remove the corn grains and leaving the cobs intact. In attainment to this design objective and aims, a proper considerations was given to the machinability factor which includes, installation, simplication, durability, choice material operational efficiently serviceab...

CONSTRUCTION OF GRAIN GRINDING MACHINE

ABSTRACT The aim of the project is to construct a domestic grain grinding machine to be powered by electric motor through pulley and belt transmission. The project is to perform mostly blending and grinding on grains e.g beans, maize, melon, millet and such other food crops. In construction of the project, there are various factors that is being put into consideration. i.The size specification  ii.The power of the electric motor to be used iii.The domestic operation which can be performed by...

THE CONSTRUCTION AND FABRICATION OF A CANDLE MOULDING MACHINE

ABSTRACT The candle molding machine is a vital device which cannot be done without, in any nation. This is because of the indispensable role candle plays, especially when there is no either source of light. In order to enhance adequate supply to both urban and rural consumers, the production of a candle molding machine is important. The major component of the candle molding machine are: the castled aluminum body, the adjustable screw, which serves as a separation between the too moulds cop an...

REPAIR OF STOP CLOCKS

ABSTRACT Stop clocks are devices for indicating time duration for the occurrence of two events after a passage of time. They are usually powered by batteries and they measure time in unit of seconds. Most clocks stop working as a result of the inability of the main spring to make a complete revolution. Also problems that do arise in clocks and cause it to breakdown include worn gear teeth, pendulum friction, and sympathetic vibrations among others. To effectively carry out repairs on stop cl...

CONSTRUCTION OF STEEL CUPBOARD

ABSTRACT The project work “Construction of standard steel cupboard†was constructed at the mechanical workshop. During the construction, various hand and machinery tools (equipment) such as electric welding machine, hammers, guillote, folding machine, spraying machine, milling machine, steel rule, hard saw, center punch, scribbers, tri-square, drawing board and other vital and useful tools was used.  However, before the standard structure of the steel cupboard was (produced), vari...

THE CONSTRUCTION OF SIEVE EQUIPMENT

ABSTRACT The sets of seizes with shocker which was fabricated and assembled in the chemical engineering pilot plant was aimed at providing the students with a machine that will aid them in practical involving the separation of solid particles. Besides this, it was also fabricated sizes or diameter of the solid particles of a substance by allowing it pass through the pores or aperture of the sieve plates. The process of operation involved the following: marking out of the sieve plate using di...
