This article explains how to build a basic washing machine on a budget using just one motor and a cam shaft mechanism.
The Invention
Because washing machines are expensive, some people might not be capable to purchase them, and some communities might not have convenient means of obtaining them. This article may teach you how to make a handmade version of the same.
A Basic Technique for a Washing Machine
The handmade washing machine arrangement seen above takes a fairly simple method, using a motor/camshaft mechanism to conduct a gradual punching or pounding action over the clothing that requires to be scrubbed and washed.
Using a timber punch, the motor spindle is visible linked to a vertical rod and camshaft.
The purpose of the wooden punch is to be fastened within a plastic tub such that its diameter is slightly less than the inner diameter of the tub. This enables the punch to effectively perform the pounding operation within the designated range.
The wooden punch features a lid cut-out over its surface that is hinged and locked to make it easier to introduce the clothing.
First, the lid is opened upward, and then the clothing is driven to the bottom of the tub by passing them via the aperture.
The appropriate amount of water and detergent is then poured over the garments through this lid.
The lid is then secured when this is finished.
In order to start the gradual punching movement over the clothing, the motor is ultimately switched on.
A number of holes have been bored across the wooden punch, allowing water to enter and exit as the pounding operation is being performed. Because water and detergent are actively exchanged and churned over the clothing, the motion guarantees a better cleaning.
Please note that In order to rotate (hammer) the clothing in a reasonably moderate and delicate manner, the motor should be combined with an integrated geared system.
