Male’s leather shoes have 2 types which is shoes with laces and shoes without laces. Female’s leather shoes do not have shoes with laces type but it is not similar with the male’s leather shoes. People polish their shoes to make the leather look shine and clean. Dirt and dust can be easily sticking to the surface of the leather shoes. This causes the leather shoe to look dull and the leather skin can crack easily. An automatic shoe polishing machine can help all the user of leather shoes to polish faster and easier without using any force compared to polishing shoes using brush. Automatic shoe polisher machine can polish all around the surface of the leather shoe by just clicking a button. This machine can operate at any time and does not occupy a lot of space. Other that, polish a shoe can also increase the durability. Abstrak Kasut kulit boleh dipakai oleh lelaki dan perempuan. Kasut kulit lelaki mempunyai 2 jenis iaitu kasut bertali dan kasut tanpa tali.

Shoes are also used as an item of decoration and fashion. The design of shoes has varied enormously through time and from culture to culture, with appearance originally being tied to function. Additionally, fashion has often dictated many design elements, such as whether shoes have very high heels or flat ones. Contemporary footwear in the 2010s varies widely in style, complexity and cost. Basic sandals may consist of only a thin sole and simple strap and be sold for a low cost. High fashion shoes made by famous designers may be made of expensive materials, use complex construction and sell for hundreds or even thousands of dollars a pair. Some shoes are designed for specific purposes, such as boots designed specifically for mountaineering or skiing. Lately they are many people always busy and rushing until they don’t even care about the small matters in their life. Such as shoes had not been polished. Some are so lazy to polish the shoes by right it been leave dirty and mess. Besides, some have no time to for such job which is polish shoes because busy with work and other else. So, the idea comes out to make a “shoe polisher machine” for those wearing leather shoes for work to make life become easier. This machine mainly for busy worker might just spend a few minutes to polish shoes before take step into their working field with better and smarter look. This might save their time and look smart. Traditionally, shoes have been made from leather, wood or canvas, but in the 2010s, they are increasingly made from rubber, plastics, and other petrochemical- derived materials. Though the human foot is adapted to varied terrain and climate conditions, it is still vulnerable to environmental hazards such as sharp rocks and temperature extremes, which shoes protect against. Some shoes are worn as safety equipment, such as steel-soled boots which are required on construction sites. Anyway, some people also don’t know how to polish their shoes properly and they think about leather is thought that shoes may have been used long before this, but because the materials used were highly perishable, there are many products closely related to shoe polish, but not strictly considered as such. So, they can use this tool as well to help progress. On the other way polish shoes can also extend the life of leather shoes which prevent it from crack. Polish also can act as protection for shoes which prevent dust and drink spilled on it. Shoe polish products are low-value items that are infrequently purchased, as a single can might last several months for even the most frequent user, shoe polish brand in most of the world, being sold in over 180 countries. The only simple method of polishing shoe which has been using for years until now is by polishing using brush. As this technology world becoming wider, even polishing can be done automatically. A machine that can polish front, back and both sides of shoes. A machine that can spray liquid polish through nozzle. This machine can operate anytime by just clicking a button. This machine saves time and uses lesser human effort compare to polishing using brush. Both methods have the same outcome but automatic shoe polisher is faster and simple. 1.2 Problem statement During daily day, I been found out that my brother was the one who always wore all those leather shoes in family, I also relies that they were rarely to polish their shoes daily or maybe weekly. So, after they come back from work, I will be found out their shoes will become dull and not shiny anymore especially during the raining or windy day leather shoes with wet surface will more easily to attract dust or mud. Based on the problem, we know that it would take more time and more human effort when we polish using our own hands. Besides that, they are too busy and all the family member are not free to have more time to help them to do so. That what cause my brother always get scold by his boss because of his untied shoes outlook that many causes his company requirement. Other than that, if the brush is too hard it can damage the surface of the shoe leather. Because of the rushing life they always forget about the detail of their life such as clean up their shoes or use the right equipment to take care of it. 1.3 Objective • Designing a machine that can polish shoes. • Build a machine that can spray liquid polish. • Analysing types of brush, motor and nozzles. 1.4 Scope/ Limitation Every of the limitation is based on the stage of our investment and research. This is to make sure our product can be performed in the best. 1.4.1 Used only for polishing men leather shoes without shoe lays Only shoes without shoe lays can be polished using this automatic shoe polisher machine because this machine uses motor and to avoid the shoe lays get stuck between the brushes. 1.4.2 Build using an unused coffee vending machine This unused coffee vending machine has a lot of space so that this project looks well organised. 1.4.3 DC motor used to rotate the brush DC motor is a direct current. The brush in the project needs DC motor because it rotates in one direction only. 1.4.4 Flat fans type nozzle used to spray the liquid polish. This type of nozzle sprays a wider surface on the shoe. Besides, it sprays a little amount of polish liquid. By this we can save the usage of polish liquid. 1.4.5 Use for Standard Asian shoes size This might be uk6 to uk9 1.5 Importance of research Make the research is to make sure the durability of the product and the function of it is the best. To prevent the issue of lacking research in the product will make the lifespan of the product decrease and also make it not perform well which it will damage the shoes so other.

Heels were made from wood, sometimes covered in leather or fabric. This limited their width and height to some extent and it was by Zita Thornton only in the 1950s that a steel rod was inserted in the heel and gave enough strength for there to be no limits to size. This quality was taken to extremes with the introduction of the stiletto from Italy.

  • Preparation of Manuscript for Tiees-98
    International Conference on Mechanical, Industrial and Energy Engineering 2020 19-21 December, 2020, Khulna, BANGLADESH ICMIEE20-201 A Method of Style Convertible Footwear Construction by Replaceable Upper Md. Farhan Absar Tahsin, Subol Halder, Md. Imrul Kayes Limon*, Muhammad Naimul Hasan Department of Leather Engineering, Khulna University of Engineering & Technology, Khulna-9203, BANGLADESH ABSTRACT The traditional footwear uses stitch or adhesive bond to fix the upper with the bottom part. But permanently fixation makes several problems in shoe maintenance. The objectives of this study were to develop a shoe construction method where style and aesthetic look of shoe can be easily changed and to provide better cleaning facilities inside of the shoe. In this study, one pair of derby and another pair of oxford shoe with removable upper were designed and developed. In this construction, strips of Velcro and snap buttons were used along the feather edge of the shoe to attach the upper and bottom firmly. The replacement of the upper was possible through this construction. Several tests like strength analysis, wear trial and material consumption were carried out to ensure good functionality, comfort and efficient material consumption of the developed footwear. The average breaking load of the join along the lasting edge of the shoe was found to be 106 N by ASTM D 1683 method that was higher than the value of the control sample. Material consumption of derby shoe upper was compared by 00 of Russ and Small method (RSM) where the developed construction method consumed almost 125cm2 more leather compared to the conventional cemented method. But the material consumption reduces comparatively by using more replaceable uppers on the same bottom.
