 ABSTRACT

Washing clothes is one of the essential parts of life. We all wash our clothes either by hands
or by machine. A washing machine is a device designed to wash laundry such as clothes and
sheets. In these days there exists a wide variety of washing machines in the market and there
is stiff competition among the manufacturers. These washing machines costs are expensive
depending upon functions and features. All of these washing machines are powered by
electricity and the basic principle of operation is by creating a turbulent flow of the detergent
around the dirty clothes. Almost 60 percent of our population lives in rural areas where it is
impossible to use electric powered washing machines, mainly due to the unavailability of
electricity or the absence of the machine itself due to high costs of purchasing a new washing
machine.

This project work is an attempt to develop a concept to make clothes washing

machine using pedal operated mechanism which can overcome the above situation. It is a
dual purpose machine to wash clothes and serve as a fitness cycle.The mode of operation of
this machine is a pedal and chain mechanism. The clothes rub against the shaft and fall in to
water and for the drying, the clothes stick on the agitator as it spins faster so that breeze
created by rotational motion extract water out of the clothes and water is drained out of the
barrel.
