  • Design and Implementation of Low Cost Vacuum Cleaner
    International Journal of Engineering Technology Science and Research IJETSR www.ijetsr.com ISSN 2394 – 3386 Volume 4, Issue 10 October 2017 Design and Implementation of Low Cost Vacuum Cleaner Sushmita Deb, Sanjay Kumar K, Sushma T.P., Nadashree V.S., Sahana.T SJM Institute of Technology, Chitradurga, Karnataka, India ABSTRACT The goal is to build an electric vacuum cleaner using a 12V battery. We concluded that 12V battery is enough to build an electric vacuum rather than using battery of higher Volts .So that 12V battery works effectively and easily. The machine functions even better by using low volts machines. Materials used to build the vacuum cleaner are:2litre plastic bottle, 12V dc motor, switch, m-seal, one water bottle cap, an empty deodorant can and an empty Otrivin plastic bottle. KEY WORDS: Vacuum cleaner, Plastic bottles, Deodorant cans, Meshes, Flexible pipes INTRODUCTION A vacuum cleaner is a device that uses an air pump to create a partial vacuum to suck up dust and dirt, usually from floors, and from other surfaces such as upholstery and draperies. The dirt is collected by either a dust bag or a cyclone for later disposal. Vacuum cleaners, which are used in homes as well as in industry, exist in a variety of sizes and models small battery-powered hand-held devices, domestic central vacuum cleaner, huge stationary industrial appliances that can handle several hundred litres of dust before being emptied, and self-propelled vacuum trucks for recovery of large spills or removal of contaminated soil. Specialized shop vacuums can be used to suck up both dust and liquids.

This is problematic in automated warehouses that use robots to move items from one location to another. If the robot slips, it can collide with other robots or lose track of where it is located. Currently, to reduce the amount of dust on the floor, warehouses use industrial scrubbers that users walk behind or ride. This requires manual labor and a regular scheduled maintenance plan that needs to be followed to mitigate the dust accumulation.

We conducted a test to detect a vaporized material on the floor in a room. The sensor unit (temperature, humidity, air pressure, quartz crystal microbalance, and semiconductor gas sensors) was used in the test. Measurements were made with the sensor unit placed in the dust box of the vacuum cleaner. To represent a leaked liquid, a given number of water droplets and a sponge soaked with a given volume of ethanol were placed at different locations on the floor, and we investigated the detection characteristics of each sensor when the cleaner passed by the droplets and sponge representing the leaked liquid. In all the detection tests, measurements made with the sensor unit placed in the dust box showed the selective detection of water and ethanol. The most likely reason for the increase in detection output is that a few water droplets on the floor were distributed by the brush and vaporized to inside the robot vacuum cleaner, where they were detected by the sensor unit in the dust box.
