ABSTRACT
Shelling farm products are major
essential in human needs on their various, duration, fashionable on affordable
groundnut decorticator machine power operated through the use of link
mechanisms that allows quick return motion in order to eradicate the use of
hand, pestle and mortal, manual shelling machine operated. Groundnut
decorticator machine with the ability of shelling quality groundnut with high
durability at a price affordable to an average Nigerian has been a problem.
This project there by aims at production of a durable Decorticator machine. The
locally available materials such as mild steel plate of 3mm thickness, angular
bar of 50mmx50mm for the fame, the electric motor diameter with pipe of 3.5mm
thickness use for the link crushing mechanism and formats were used with
available indigenous technology without compromising the standard.

CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
Groundnut decorticator is a machine used in decorticating
or shelling groundnut, shelling is the removal of kernel from pods. The
spectacular increase in the use and number of hand operated decorticator
throughout the northern states in Nigeria coupled with the poor quality of
decorticated groundnut generally seen has made it necessary to recommend
practices on the general operation and adjustment of the common hand
decorticators
So the
manufacturing engineers brainstorm together to design and fabricate motorized
groundnut decorticator machine and to eradicate the use of hand and manual
decorticator, to reduce poor quality of
for groundnut decorticated groundnut
and to increase the productivity and demand for ground in our country s
an indication that the production and processing of groundnut should be
improved by modern mechanization techniques out which is decorticating or
shelling operation. Shelling is carried out on farm just before the farmer
takes his groundnut product to the market for sale.
LITERATURE VIEW AND
BACKGROUND OF GROUNDNUT DECORTICATOR MACHINE
As
we all know that, decorticating is what we can nut avoid in human activities
most especially in commercial farm production of groundnut. Hence they need to
be decorticated after harvesting the groundnut
In view of this significance of shelling
process, modern engineers have been force to derive means of mechanized
decorticating of groundnut and to eradicate the use of hand to operation,
manually operated machine and to replace them with motorized machine with make
use of link mechanism in transferring motion from one place to another[from
electric motor to the beater bare shaft of decorticator machine]. In those
parts, groundnut shell is a huge time consuming and tedious energy consuming
Many
other means used to improved were not ideal in an attempt to erase completely
the sweat and difficulties encounter in
manual and hand decorticator / shelling, these arise to the need to design and
fabricate a device to meet the comfort of man in groundnut shelling .
Motorized
groundnut that decorticate machine is a type of decorticating machine that is
used to remove kernel from husks and it’s carried out by farmers, to shell the
groundnut product from the farm to the market.
AIM’S
AND OBJECTIVE OF MOTORIZED OPERATED GROUNDNUT DECORTICATOR MACHINE
Aim’s of this project is to design and
fabricate of motorized operated groundnut decorticator machine with the use of
the white worth return mechanism with two likes bar. The use of hand, manual
and motorized operated decorticator has been studies, to design and fabricate
machine that is going to replace the old
tedious –out dated style of shelling of groundnut because it waste time
and energy consuming by farmer, and poor productivity from the farm. This
machine is design to eradicate to the use hand in shelling of groundnut .
OBJECTIVES
Ø To do away with old primitives system of shelling groundnut
Ø To increase comfort in groundnut shelling
Ø To reduce time and energy spent in shelling groundnut
Ø To simplify the repair and maintenance of the decorticator
machine
Ø To improve the productivity and profitability of groundnut
sheller.
JUSTIFICATION
This project is design and
fabricate in order to reduces the labour and energy cost in traditional method of
shelling groundnut .
To reduce the damages done to
the groundnut during shelling operation using the manual method
To reduce the time taking in
traditional ways of the shelling groundnut
To increase the productivity
and demand for groundnut in our country.
