 ABSTRACT
Today the life of man is simple and comfortable as various resources are
available for each and process that a person has to perform in his day to day life,
and these resources and equipment helps the person to perform his work in
efficient and less time consuming manner. Today, the four wheeler means a car
available for more than 70% peoples in the urban areas. There are many
equipments are designed so that any operation required to be done on a car can be
done easily and in a shorter period of time as possible. There is a problem that can
be considered as time consuming and requires more effort which is the opening of
wheel of a car for its replacement or any other operation. Today the unit of a wheel
are opened by one of which requires more efforts and consume a lot of time for this
problem the multi nut remover is an solution.

Multi nut remover is a special purpose tool made to open/close all the nuts
of a wheel in one time less effort. Although various methods of opening nuts are
used, but they require a lot of effort to open a single nut one by one. With the help
of Multi nut remover we made arrangement to open/close all the nuts by
amplifying the torque. Different types of gears & sprockets are arranged in such a
way that if we apply 1Nm torque with air gun, then we get 20Nm torque as output
for combined operation. In the work, we concentrate only one application domain
i.e. Wheels of car- Maruti Swift.
The main objective of work is to develop a mechanism in one assembly,
which can be made in automobiles. It can be successfully used as a standard tool
provided with a new vehicle. Also it can be used in assembly line of automobiles,
workshops and service stations. Design is simple, easily workable, and economical
and try to satisfy all the aspects of design consideration.
