 INTRODUCTION

There has been a serious demand for intermittent movement

of packages in the industries right from th start. Though the
continuous movement is more or less important in the same
field the sporadic motion has become essential.
The objective of our project is to introduce a
mechanism that delivers this stop and move motion using
mechanical linkages. The advantage of our system over the
conveyor system is that the system has a time delay
between moving packages and this delay can be used to
introduce any alterations in the package or move the
package for any other purpose or likewise.
 AIM
The aim of this project is to fabricate the box moving
mechanism, which can make easier to move boxes from
one sector to the other while processing in factories.

OBJECTIVE
• Understand project planning and execution
• Understand the fabrication techniques in a mechanical
workshop
• Understand the usage of various mechanical machine
tools and also measuring tools
 Governing Principle
Whithworth Quick Return Mechanism
• The Whitworth quick return mechanism converts rotary
motion into reciprocating motion, but unlike. In this
mechanism, the forward reciprocating motion is slower
rate than the return stroke. This is why it is called quick
return mechanism.
• This mechanism is made of a driving crank and of a
driven slider crank. In the considered configuration, the
fixed pivot of the driven crank is located on the outside of
the circle on which the end of the driving crank moves.
This leads to an alternated motion of the slider crank.
• The angular speed of the driven crank is variable. The
duration of the motion for its part corresponding to the blue
arc is shorter than the one related to the red arc. This is why
this device is named quick return mechanism, which was
used in crank shapers, with the slow part or the stroke being
used for the working time of the tool and the quick part for the
non-productive time.
 Applications

Power driven Saw machine

Shaping machine
Water pumping system Rotary engines
 CONCLUSION

Hence , we have seen the use of quick return

mechanism which has proven to be helpful in many
ways. Therefore, box transport using quick return can
be fabricated which will be more advantageous than the
conventional conveyor belt.

So , please grant us permission to continue with our

project.
