Abstract:
This research focuses on the design, construction, and performance evaluation of a manual motorized sweeper developed for Diplahan National High School. The study aims to provide a cost-effective, efficient, and environmentally friendly solution for maintaining school cleanliness and surrounding areas. Traditional manual sweeping is often time-consuming and labor-intensive, while fully motorized sweepers are expensive and impractical for school or community use. To address this, the researchers designed a hybrid cleaning system that combines manual operation with a low-powered motor, improving cleaning efficiency, ease of use, and affordability. The project emphasizes mechanical design, material selection, power source optimization, and ergonomic considerations to reduce operator fatigue. Performance testing showed that the sweeper effectively collects different types of waste on school grounds and paved areas, significantly reducing cleaning time compared to manual sweeping alone. The results indicate that the manual motorized sweeper is a practical and sustainable innovation that can enhance sanitation within the school and serve as a model for other resource-limited institutions.
