is constructed with Electro-mechanical components and is driven by the motors. Various fields of technologies are used to drive this comprehensive machine. After filling the container inside the mine, someone has to activate the toggle button, there by the container travels through sliding mechanism in horizontal direction
Key words- toggle switch, relay 1. INTRODUCTION The machine designed here can be used for many applications; the main task of this machine is to transport the material from lower level to the upper level. In lower level, the collected material from one place is dumped in to the container and is carried up to a specific reference point. As this research work falls under the subject of Mechatronics, various fields of technologies must be included to full-fill the target. The integration of electronic engineering, mechanical engineering, electrical engineering and control technology is forming a crucial part in this design.
1.1 FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION AS PER THE DIAGRAMS This part of the project work is intended to explain the block diagram in step by step, i.e. block wise. By studying this block diagram carefully, one can understand the fundamentals of this project work. The complete block diagram provided at the end of this chapter shows the technology that is aimed to meet the demand of heavy industries by exploring the self-propelled carriers.
1.3 MECHANICAL TRANSMISSION SECTION The mechanical system is considered as motion converter, this can be created by implementing electromechanical techniques. The concept is to transform the motion from one form to some other required form by using suitable mechanical and electrical devices. In this project work the technique of transform the rotational motion into linear motion is implemented. For this purpose two DC motors are used to create the motion for the material carrier in horizontal as well as vertical directions. Fig-1: Block diagram
1.2 TOGGLE SWITCH The process begins from this switch, whenever this switch is activated, the material container coupled to the horizontal moving mechanism travels in ‘X’ direction and reaches to the reference point. This switch is interfaced with the relays at input side, when © 2017, IRJET
