Design and Analysis of Power Screw for Manhole Cover Lifter

Abstract

The importance of manhole in the sewerage system is to get the underground pipelines and alternative systems area unit in good shape. A manhole cover is a detachable plate setting the roof above the manhole opening, to prevent anything from dropping in, and to stay away from unauthorized persons and matter to fall in it. Manhole covers are usually manufactured of cast iron, concrete or combine both. This creates them economical, powerful, and dense, generally weighing more than 50 kg. The weight supports to maintain them in position when transportation moves across them and makes it complicated for an unauthorized person not having proper tools to remove them. The traditional method of removing the manhole with the assistance of the hook. So, to safely remove the manhole cover, many innovative and automated techniques are designed and used for analysis. In this paper, the finite element analysis of a power screw operated manhole cover is analyzed with the help of ANSYS R14.5.

Fuzzy rules based smart irrigation system using adaptive bacterial foraging optimization

“…As a result, the creation of smart irrigation system (closed-loop control) offers an effective substitute for conventional irrigation techniques [34,35]. The intelligent irrigation system monitors various parameters that influence irrigation efficacy and dispenses the appropriate amount of water necessary for optimal plant growth and development [36,37]. The control action is contingent upon the result, thereby enabling the preservation of the intended output state while assessing the input conditions to ascertain the most favorable course of action [38,39].…”

3D Printer Technology Selection in Rapid Prototyping: A Spherical Fuzzy AHP Approach

“…Construction, food (Verma et al, 2022), biomechanics, medicine, aerospace (Aglawe et al, 2021;Shelare et al, 2021), clothing, jewelry, consumer goods (Mathew et al, 2020), automotive industry (Barbieri et al, 2017;Fabian et al, 2023) are the sectors where the application is intense. Increasing demand for 3D printed products increases the production of innovative materials in parallel (Waghmare et al, 2019). The continuous advancement of software and hardware in additive manufacturing is also affecting the expansion of the existing material palette (Sahu et al, 2020).…”

Design and Analysis of Jig and Welding Fixture for Car Panel to Shift the Locate Pin

“…When comparing the relative strengths and limitations of the model, choose the best definition to be used for further analysis. Generally speaking, idea selection is the method of narrowing up the alternative definition considered [24], [25], [26], [27]. The screening form was chosen for the final design for the jig.…”
