A Design of Mechanical Pesticides Sprayer

Pesticides are pesticides designed to deter pests, including weeds. The project uses a spraying system which is done using a sprocket mechanism. The mechanism employed by researchers is the mechanism of kinematic linkage, which converts the spinning movement into reciprocal movement. This project study is about the proposed design of a mechanical pesticide sprayer that includes data gathering from the present situation in the different farming industries, especially the farm in Brgy. Binahaan Pagbilao, Quezon. The study has the following objectives: (1) To gather and analyze data in designing and developing mechanical pesticide sprayers; (2) To design a mechanical pesticide sprayer; (3) To fabricate the prototype of the designed mechanical pesticide sprayer; and (4) To test and evaluate the prototype in terms of functionality and efficiency. The main purpose of this study is that farmers can reduce the use of traditional sprayers and also can increase the production of crops in a short period. The prototype was built in form of mechanical aspects like welding, grinding, and cutting. By simply following this aspect, the prototype was built to ensure the safety and comfort of the local farmers.
