INTRODUCTION The word “Train” comes from the old French word trahiner, also from the latin word trahere which simply means “pull or draw”. It is a form of rail transport consisting of series of vehicles (coaches) propelled along a fixed rail track to transport goods or passengers. It can also be defined as a private or public conveyance system that travels along fixed routes and takes up set down passengers and their luggage at fixed points. A railway station also referred to as a tr...

ABSTRACT In this project, three (3) alternative design solutions were considered for the camp-bed. The authors utilize the local raw materials (with cost consideration) for the comments. The merits and demerits of each of the alternative with respect to the considered grip were also discussed and the solutions of the alternatives that best satisfied the limitations were selection, design and cost analysis, production process and operations maintenance and problem encountered during the de...
ABSTRACT Conveying goods from one place to another via trucks has been a long-held practice because of its usefulness. There are different types of trucks that are available in this regard such as ; two axle, three axle, four axle trucks etc and each with its unique functionality.Businesses relying on the movement of bulky raw materials and finished goods regardless of the distance no doubt require a truck to ease this task.In line with this challenge, it is desired to design and construct a...
ABSTRACT During forging or furnace operation, air is the utility that should be available at all time in order to ensure a smooth and standardized operation. Supplying air manually will reduce productivity and more man hour to accomplish a given task. Thus, an electric blower was designed in this regard with an efficient electric motor as the driver. The suction conditions and other application data are appropriately used to calculate the design parameters such as: suction specific speed, t...
ABSTRACT In recent times, most of the household appliances are using electric power and as such, electricity shortage has become a major problem throughout the world. Ceiling fan is one of such appliances that consume electric power. The best way to minimize the power consumption of the ceiling fan is to reduce the weight of the ceiling fan blade. Thus, this project work entails the design of a new ceiling fan blade in which case the weight and power consumption was compared to the Panasonic...
ABSTRACT Packaging of food which is viable means of business opportunity has been exploited by individuals and corporate bodies for a very long time because the importance of packaging food products are very enormous ranging from protection of the product to preventing the food from spoiling. There is no way one can successfully go into business of chips production without exploiting a proper means of packaging the product. Over the years, different types of packaging machines have been dev...
ABSTRACT Wheelbarrow is a simple machine, which belong to the second-class lever. This is because the load or resistance is placed between the effort and the fulcrum. It is used in many areas of work to convey loads that are too heavy or bulky to be carried by hand. Wheelbarrow can be used as farm equipment, industrial equipment among others. However, the efficiency of the wheelbarrow depends on the materials used for the construction. A wrong choice of these materials can reduce the efficien...
ABSTRACTWhen it comes to construction projects, landscaping work, and gardening, you need the right kind of equipment to finish tasks speedily and easily. One piece of equipment you would need is a motorised wheelbarrow. This is intended to carry bulky materials and heavy loads. There are a lot of equipments that can be used these days for projects that involve heavy work. It would be an advantage to utilize motorized equipment in order for you to do tasks efficiently. With these tools, it wi...
ABSTRACT This wrote up is a detail of the processes for the physical realization of the design and construction of mobile deep freezer. It is divided into chapters which discussed expensively the practical refrigeration cycle with rull attention given to design factors working principals and choice of material. Also considered were fabrication assembly and safely requirement INTRODUCTIONFirstly refrigeration in the process of removing heat from a substance or space in...
ABSTRACT In the society at large Technology is fast replacing the crude method of carrying out work and has been making room for employment. Besides, it has also caught the attention of the youths who will prefer to work in a company with technological operations than one with man-power operations. This project can be used to convey materials ranging from those in powdery forms grit forms, and stones in the size of crushed granites. If applied to the foundry technology practical (sand mould) ...
INTRODUCTION REFRIGERATION Refrigeration is a branch of science that deals with the process of removing heat from a substance or space in order to make it cooler. Refrigerator is defined as a device that is used in cooling the internal temperature below the room temperature (that is between 250C to 300C). Generally, however, for a space or substance to be cooler, it must loss that heat to another. Also, for a space or substance to get hotter, it must absorb heat from another, which must b...
