ABSTRACT
Crop cutting machine is mechanical device. It can be use for cutting the dry cut stalks
of grain break or covering of trunk of tree. In the crop cutting machine required less
human effort and it is very reasonable for middle class farmer it is not complicated
structure and it is easily operated by unskilled person.
In this cutting machine have the two blades one is right hand side and another
is left hand side. This can be applicable for the cutting of crop such as Javari, Tuar,
maize etc. It can reduce labor cost due to the only one person can handle. Crop cutter
machine does not required high maintenance.
Key words

1. INTRODUCTION:-
Agriculture forms the backbone of our country economy; about 55% of citizen is
depending on agriculture. Thus developing our country means providing our farmers
with more “Sophisticated” and “Advanced Tool” which would decreases overall time
required for the task and the task will become more easy and convenient.
Crop harvesting is last stage in farming which takes maximum time of farmer
among all farming process. In India harvesting is generally done manually. Thus our
intention is to provide farmer a “CROP HARVESTER IN AGRICULTURAL
APPROACH”. This machine consists of simple mechanism make to run by an engine
which will be economical to farmer and will take less time for harvesting operation.
Crop harvesting is a process of cutting the crops closed to the ground or pulling
the plants when they are ripped out. It include cutting the stems of coral crops like tuar,
Jawar, Bajra, Maize etc. closed to the ground. in our country it is generally done by
sharp sickle.
On the basis of this large number of crop harvester are in use at today’s date,
which are available at different shape and size and on different power supply. Some of
them are pneumatic crop harvester, hydraulic crops harvester and crop harvester
running on tractor engine. Since they are costlier keeping in to consideration the
economic ability of our farmer it is required that is should be simple and should fulfill
the same intention which are achieved by “CROP HARVESTER IN
AGRICULTURAL APPROACH”. This machine is made to run by a single cylinder
four stroke petrol engine of 197cc and having a speed of nearly 3600 rpm.

3. CONCEPTUAL BACKGROUND:-
In 14th
century the ‘Leonardo Da-vinci’ is a one man who is an architect, engineer,
geologist, and painter, he is shown various inventions and thought through his drawing
and we take our project concept from this picture.
Fig. no 3.1 Leonardo da-vinci concept
This picture show the war when the horse is running, wheel is rotate in circular
motion and this motion give the cutter through the propeller shaft by using the bevel
gear which is connected to the wheel of chariot. This cutter act’s like a weapon and it
used in war. So this concept we use for a agricultural approach and we decided to create
a new invention in agricultural and we make a demo model.
In this invention we used the engine which generated the power and this power we can
used for rotating the cutter with the help of pulleys and belt to cut the crop in the farm.

The total length of cutter is 290 mm. Cutting edges having the length of 115mm. on
both side of both end. In the middle portion of the plate the hole is created of 13mm.
and key way slot is provided of 5 x 5mm. The thickness of cutting portion is 4mm, and
width of cutting portion is 43mm. At the cutting edge outer and inner corner the 8mm
radius round shape is provided. The main thing is that the slightly in cutting edge is
created the angle of 20 degree and 10degree with faces on both side of cutting edge
opposite to each other as shown in fig. So the dynamic shape has got to the cutter which
is main purpose of it can cut the crop very easily.

Actually this engine used in agricultural purpose for taking the water from the bore but
we does not required water pump so that this water pump remove from engine.
The engine is the petrol +kerosene. When it has start it required petrol means beginning
of the engine. Stop the petrol chock because we have required whole the work with the
help of kerosene through the work running on kerosene so that when engine start Engine
we can start with the help of starter the arrangement of starter by the rope the rope is a
rounded on the starter pulley which is mount engine shaft. When rope is pulled outward
than engine will start at high speed up to the 3600 rpm but we required only 900 rpm for
drive the cutter
Multiple applications of this engine because it has ability to carried high speed so we can
used cultivator, absorber by using its speed.

7.3 V-Belt:
V-belt is mostly used in factories and workshops where a great amount of power
is to be transmitted from one pulley to another when the two pulleys are very each near to
other. It made of fabric and cords moulded in rubber and covered with fabric and rubber.
V-belt are trapezoidal in shape are made endless. These belt are particularly suitable for
short drive i.e. shaft are small distance apart from each other. The included angle for v
belt is 30 degree to 40 degree. In the v belt drives the rim of the pulley is grooved in
which the v belt run. the effect of the groove is to increase the frictional grip of v belt on
the pulley and thus to reduce the tendency of slipping .in order to have a good grip on
pulley the v belts is in contact with side faces of the grooves and not on bottom the power
is transmitted by the wedging action between the belts and v grooves in the pulley.
Fig no 7.3.v-belt
A belt is a loop of flexible material used to mechanically link two or more rotating
shafts. Belts may be used as a source of motion, to transmit power efficiently, or to track
relative movement. Belts are looped over pulleys. Belts are the cheapest utility for power
transmission between shafts that may not be axially aligned. Power transmission is
achieved by specially designed belts and pulleys. The demands on a belt drive
transmission system are large and this has led to many variations on the theme. They run
smoothly and with little noise v- belts have mainly replaced flat-belts for short-distance
power transmission; and longer-distance power transmission is typically no longer done
with belts at all. For example, factory machines now tend to have individual electric
motors.

V- Belts (also known as V-belt or wedge rope) solved the slippage and alignment
problem. It is now the basic belt for power transmission. They provide the best
combination of traction,
speed of movement, load of the bearings, and long service life. They are generally
endless, and their general cross-section shape is trapezoidal (hence the name "V"). The
"V" shape of the belt tracks in a mating groove in the pulley (or sheave), with the result
that the belt cannot slip off. The belt also tends to wedge into the groove as the load
increases—the greater the load, the greater the wedging action—improving torque
transmission and making the V-belt an effective solution, needing less width and tension
than flat belts. V-belts trump flat belts with their small center distances and high
reduction ration. The preferred center distance is larger than the largest pulley diameter,
but less than three times the sum of both pulleys. Optimal speed range is 1000–7000
ft/min. V-belts need larger pulleys for their larger thickness than flat belts.
For high-power requirements, two or more v- belts can be joined side-by-side in an
arrangement called a multi-V, running on matching multi-groove sheaves. This is known
as a multiple-V-belt drive (or sometimes a "classical V-belt drive").
Advantages of v belt:-
 The v-belt gives more compactness due to the small distance between the centre
 Drive is positive as there is negligible slip between pulley groove and belt
 The belt have the ability to cushion the shocks when machine are started
 The high velocity ratio may be obtained
 Central line may be vertical, horizontal and inclined.

Ration of driving tension for v belt:-
Let
R1 = normal reaction between belt and side of the grooves
R= Total reaction in the plane of grooves
2β= angle of grooves
µ= coefficient of friction between belts and side of the grooves
Fig no 7.4.Cross section of v-belt
In this project is required three v-belt .one is B-section (B 31/830) and other two is A-
section (A 1204 LP/A46).
Power transmitted between a belt and a pulley is expressed as the product of difference of
tension and belt velocity:[1]
where, T1 and T2 are tensions in the tight side and slack side of the belt respectively.
They are related as:
Where, μ is the coefficient of friction, and α is the angle subtended by contact surface at
the centre of the pulley.

7.4 Shaft:
A shaft is a rotating machine element which is used to transmit power from one place to
another. The power is delivered to the shaft by some tangential force and the resultant
torque (or twisting moment) set up within the shaft permits the power to be transferred to
various machines linked up to the shaft to another, the various members such as pulleys,
gears etc., are mounted on it. These members along with the forces exerted upon them
causes the shaft to bending. In other words, we may say that a shaft is used for the
transmission of torque and bending moment. The various members are mounted on the
shaft by means of keys or splines.
Two shafts is required of this project,
1) Intermediate shaft
Fig no 7.5.Intermediate shaft
2) Cutter shaft

7.5 Plumber block or pedestal bearing:
It is used for proper fixing of shaft and shaft is easily assemble or dissemble from the
plumber block. six plumber block is used in this machine. It is a split type of bearing.
This type of bearing is used for higher speeds, heavy loads and large sizes. The
component of the bearing Cast iron pedestal or block with a sole
Brass or gun-metal or phosphorus-bronze “Brasses”, bushes or steps made in two halves.
Cast iron cap.
This bearing facilitates the placements and removal of the of the shaft from the bearing.
Unlike the solid bearing which are to be inserted end-wise and hence are kept near the
ends of the shaft, these can be placed anywhere. This bearing ensures a perfect
adjustment for wear in the brasses by screwing the cap.

7.7 Pulleys:
A pulley is a wheel on an axle that is designed to support movement of a cable or belt
along its circumference. Pulleys are used in a variety of ways to lift loads, apply forces,
and to transmit power.
A pulley is also called a sheave or drum and may have a groove between
two flanges around its circumference. The drive element of a pulley system can be
a rope, cable, belt, or chain that runs over the pulley inside the groove.
Pulleys are assembled to form a block and tackle in order to provide mechanical
advantage to apply large forces. Pulleys are also assembled as part of belt and chain
drives in order to transmit power from one rotating shaft to another.

8. WORKING:
Firstly the MK 20 3 HP single cylinder four stroke petrol engine
having a speed of 3600 rpm is started by manually. The engine shaft which will get the
power from engine. Then fixed a small cast iron driving pulley on these engine shafts.
At this stage the speed of engine is 3600 rpm, but we required a speed of 900rpm for
the operation of harvesting . For these purpose we use pulley and v belt drive on
intermediate shaft for reducing the speed. Then we fixed 3 (A section) aluminum pulley
and v belt on intermediate shaft. From these engine shafts power will be transmitted to
the intermediate shaft with the help of pulley and v-belt drive.
The motion of power transmission from engine shaft to intermediate shaft is
horizontal. And at this stage speed of intermediate shaft become 1800 rpm. And again
for the purpose of harvesting operation we use two cutter shaft. At top end of these
cutter shafts we fixed a 127mm aluminum driven pulley and at lower end of shaft cutter
is fixed, similarly for other cutter shaft. The 2 driving pulley which is mounted on
intermediate shaft will transmit the Power to the cutter shaft and at this stage we got the
required speed of 900 rpm. By this ultimately a power will be transmitted to the both
cutter and it’s start to rotating whose half portion will be outside the length of casing.
This half portion of cutter will comes in a contact with crops and perform harvesting
operation without shattering of grain. These cutter revolve 15 times per second.

efforts in which only one operator can be operate or handle the machine. While the
machine will begin there is not required more than one or two worker.
2. Reduce the cost: - in the agriculture for cropping the soya bin, javar and tuvar. It can
cut cheapest prices because it saves the worker cost.
3. Reduce the time: - when worker is cutting the crop they have more time for cutting
but when the use of the crop cutter harvester they increase the capacity of the working
and cutting & it can possible the maximum crop cutting within minimum time.
4. Easy to handle: - crop cutter machine is easy for handling we can easily start the
machine.
5. Unskilled worker can operate: - no skill person required for operating the machine.

11. APPLICATIONS:
The harvesting of different crops is carried out at present only by manual
labors and the tools are used are only ordinary sickle, the cutting edge of which is
specially serrated for this purpose. They vary slightly in shapes different part of country,
but they are all adopted for cutting only one handful of stems or stalks of the grain crop at
each cut. This kind of harvesting needs of large labour force and as the harvesting has to
be carried out quickly and almost simultaneously in each tract, the demand for labour is
very more, the work become very expensive and labour to very difficult to get even at
high wages therefore “CROP HARVESTER IN AGRICULTURAL APPROACH” has
brought into existence which carry out this process easily and fastly.

12. FUTURE SCOPES
12.1 Cultivators
A cultivator is any of several types of farm implement used for secondary tillage.
One sense of the name refers to frames with teeth (also called shanks) that pierce the
soil as they are dragged through it linearly. Another sense refers to machines that
use rotary motion of disks or teeth to accomplish a similar result. The rotary tiller is a
principal example.
12.2 Floors cleaner
A floor cleaner machine to use cleaning of a floor in home, mall, offices, etc. so
in this machine remove the cutter & fix floor cleaning brush. This process is easy to
clean floor as compare to the human effort.
12.3 Agricultural spryer
In agriculture, a sprayer is a piece of equipment that spray nozzles to
apply herbicides, pesticides, and fertilizers to agricultural crops. Sprayers range in size
from man-portable units (typically backpacks with spray guns) to trailed sprayers that
are connected to this machine.

13. CONCLUSIONS
In this way we made a demo model “CROP HARVESTER IN AGRICULTURAL
APPROACH” for the use of crop cutting in the farm. In this project the following
conclusions were drawn from the study & observation:
1) For Machine:
Machine is working in 1 acre area the fuel consumption is = 1.5 liter /-
Fuel cost is Rs.115 + labour cost is Rs.35 + M/C cost is Rs.50 = Rs.200 /-
2) For Labour
Labour working in 1 acre area the associated cost is = Rs.400 /-
Cutting time for 2 labour in 1 acre area of farm = 6 hr
Hence in above comparison it is clear that the cost of working by machine in the farm
for said application is less as compared to labour cost.
Future scope
Total cost of the project is Rs.14000, in futures launch of this project in the market the
cost of this project will be near about Rs 8000 to 10000.Hence its can easily affordable
by farmer.

  • 4. CROP HARVESTER IN AGRICULTURAL APPROACH 2012-13 Page 4 1. INTRODUCTION:- Agriculture forms the backbone of our country economy; about 55% of citizen is depending on agriculture. Thus developing our country means providing our farmers with more “Sophisticated” and “Advanced Tool” which would decreases overall time required for the task and the task will become more easy and convenient. Crop harvesting is last stage in farming which takes maximum time of farmer among all farming process. In India harvesting is generally done manually. Thus our intention is to provide farmer a “CROP HARVESTER IN AGRICULTURAL APPROACH”. This machine consists of simple mechanism make to run by an engine which will be economical to farmer and will take less time for harvesting operation. Crop harvesting is a process of cutting the crops closed to the ground or pulling the plants when they are ripped out. It include cutting the stems of coral crops like tuar, Jawar, Bajra, Maize etc. closed to the ground. in our country it is generally done by sharp sickle. On the basis of this large number of crop harvester are in use at today’s date, which are available at different shape and size and on different power supply. Some of them are pneumatic crop harvester, hydraulic crops harvester and crop harvester running on tractor engine. Since they are costlier keeping in to consideration the economic ability of our farmer it is required that is should be simple and should fulfill the same intention which are achieved by “CROP HARVESTER IN AGRICULTURAL APPROACH”. This machine is made to run by a single cylinder four stroke petrol engine of 197cc and having a speed of nearly 3600 rpm.
  • 5. CROP HARVESTER IN AGRICULTURAL APPROACH 2012-13 Page 5 2. NECCESITY OF CROP HARVESTER MACHINE COMPARISON BETWEEN CROP HARVESTER AND LABOUR CROP HARVESTER LABOUR 1) When machine working in the farm it takes less time as compared to labour. 1) When the labour is working in the farm it takes more time as compared to machine. 2) Less stresses on machine. 2) More stresses on the labour in the farm. 3) There is no requirement of skilled labour for handling the machine in the farm. 3) It required a skilled labour in the farm for cutting the crops. 4) Machine cuts the crops in two rows at a time in the farm. 4) Labour cuts the crop in one row at time in the farm. 5) This machine saves some labour cost because it handled by only one person. 5) In today era the labour cost is more as compared to this machine. 6) This machine cuts the crop in 1 acre area in 2 hour. 6) Two labour are cut the crops in 1 acre area in 1 day. 7) This machine cut the crops in 1 acre area in the cost of 200Rs. 7) Labour are cut the crops in 1 acre area in the cost of 400Rs.
  • 6. CROP HARVESTER IN AGRICULTURAL APPROACH 2012-13 Page 6 3. CONCEPTUAL BACKGROUND:- In 14th century the ‘Leonardo Da-vinci’ is a one man who is an architect, engineer, geologist, and painter, he is shown various inventions and thought through his drawing and we take our project concept from this picture. Fig. no 3.1 Leonardo da-vinci concept This picture show the war when the horse is running, wheel is rotate in circular motion and this motion give the cutter through the propeller shaft by using the bevel gear which is connected to the wheel of chariot. This cutter act’s like a weapon and it used in war. So this concept we use for a agricultural approach and we decided to create a new invention in agricultural and we make a demo model. In this invention we used the engine which generated the power and this power we can used for rotating the cutter with the help of pulleys and belt to cut the crop in the farm.
  • 7. CROP HARVESTER IN AGRICULTURAL APPROACH 2012-13 Page 7 4. DESIGN METHODOLOGY: 4.1 Cutting blades: The cutting blades materials are high speed steel. We used this material for making the cutter because following properties of this material. 4.1.1Properties of high speed steel  Resists corrosion  Retains strength even at high temperatures  High resistance to shock at low and high temperatures  Yields durable long-life products Fig no 4.1.Cutter The total length of cutter is 290 mm. Cutting edges having the length of 115mm. on both side of both end. In the middle portion of the plate the hole is created of 13mm. and key way slot is provided of 5 x 5mm. The thickness of cutting portion is 4mm, and width of cutting portion is 43mm. At the cutting edge outer and inner corner the 8mm radius round shape is provided. The main thing is that the slightly in cutting edge is created the angle of 20 degree and 10degree with faces on both side of cutting edge opposite to each other as shown in fig. So the dynamic shape has got to the cutter which is main purpose of it can cut the crop very easily.

CROP HARVESTER IN AGRICULTURAL APPROACH 2012-13 Page 29 7.3 V-Belt: V-belt is mostly used in factories and workshops where a great amount of power is to be transmitted from one pulley to another when the two pulleys are very each near to other. It made of fabric and cords moulded in rubber and covered with fabric and rubber. V-belt are trapezoidal in shape are made endless. These belt are particularly suitable for short drive i.e. shaft are small distance apart from each other. The included angle for v belt is 30 degree to 40 degree. In the v belt drives the rim of the pulley is grooved in which the v belt run. the effect of the groove is to increase the frictional grip of v belt on the pulley and thus to reduce the tendency of slipping .in order to have a good grip on pulley the v belts is in contact with side faces of the grooves and not on bottom the power is transmitted by the wedging action between the belts and v grooves in the pulley. Fig no 7.3.v-belt A belt is a loop of flexible material used to mechanically link two or more rotating shafts. Belts may be used as a source of motion, to transmit power efficiently, or to track relative movement. Belts are looped over pulleys. Belts are the cheapest utility for power transmission between shafts that may not be axially aligned. Power transmission is achieved by specially designed belts and pulleys. The demands on a belt drive transmission system are large and this has led to many variations on the theme. They run smoothly and with little noise v- belts have mainly replaced flat-belts for short-distance power transmission; and longer-distance power transmission is typically no longer done with belts at all. For example, factory machines now tend to have individual electric motors.
  • 30. CROP HARVESTER IN AGRICULTURAL APPROACH 2012-13 Page 30 V- Belts (also known as V-belt or wedge rope) solved the slippage and alignment problem. It is now the basic belt for power transmission. They provide the best combination of traction, speed of movement, load of the bearings, and long service life. They are generally endless, and their general cross-section shape is trapezoidal (hence the name "V"). The "V" shape of the belt tracks in a mating groove in the pulley (or sheave), with the result that the belt cannot slip off. The belt also tends to wedge into the groove as the load increases—the greater the load, the greater the wedging action—improving torque transmission and making the V-belt an effective solution, needing less width and tension than flat belts. V-belts trump flat belts with their small center distances and high reduction ration. The preferred center distance is larger than the largest pulley diameter, but less than three times the sum of both pulleys. Optimal speed range is 1000–7000 ft/min. V-belts need larger pulleys for their larger thickness than flat belts. For high-power requirements, two or more v- belts can be joined side-by-side in an arrangement called a multi-V, running on matching multi-groove sheaves. This is known as a multiple-V-belt drive (or sometimes a "classical V-belt drive"). Advantages of v belt:-  The v-belt gives more compactness due to the small distance between the centre  Drive is positive as there is negligible slip between pulley groove and belt  The belt have the ability to cushion the shocks when machine are started  The high velocity ratio may be obtained  Central line may be vertical, horizontal and inclined.

CROP HARVESTER IN AGRICULTURAL APPROACH 2012-13 Page 31 Ration of driving tension for v belt:- Let R1 = normal reaction between belt and side of the grooves R= Total reaction in the plane of grooves 2β= angle of grooves µ= coefficient of friction between belts and side of the grooves Fig no 7.4.Cross section of v-belt In this project is required three v-belt .one is B-section (B 31/830) and other two is A- section (A 1204 LP/A46). Power transmitted between a belt and a pulley is expressed as the product of difference of tension and belt velocity:[1] where, T1 and T2 are tensions in the tight side and slack side of the belt respectively. They are related as: Where, μ is the coefficient of friction, and α is the angle subtended by contact surface at the centre of the pulley.

The power is delivered to the shaft by some tangential force and the resultant torque (or twisting moment) set up within the shaft permits the power to be transferred to various machines linked up to the shaft to another, the various members such as pulleys, gears etc., are mounted on it. These members along with the forces exerted upon them causes the shaft to bending. In other words, we may say that a shaft is used for the transmission of torque and bending moment. The various members are mounted on the shaft by means of keys or splines.

The engine shaft which will get the power from engine. Then fixed a small cast iron driving pulley on these engine shafts. At this stage the speed of engine is 3600 rpm, but we required a speed of 900rpm for the operation of harvesting . For these purpose we use pulley and v belt drive on intermediate shaft for reducing the speed. Then we fixed 3 (A section) aluminum pulley and v belt on intermediate shaft. From these engine shafts power will be transmitted to the intermediate shaft with the help of pulley and v-belt drive. The motion of power transmission from engine shaft to intermediate shaft is horizontal. And at this stage speed of intermediate shaft become 1800 rpm. And again for the purpose of harvesting operation we use two cutter shaft. At top end of these cutter shafts we fixed a 127mm aluminum driven pulley and at lower end of shaft cutter is fixed, similarly for other cutter shaft. The 2 driving pulley which is mounted on intermediate shaft will transmit the Power to the cutter shaft and at this stage we got the required speed of 900 rpm. By this ultimately a power will be transmitted to the both cutter and it’s start to rotating whose half portion will be outside the length of casing. This half portion of cutter will comes in a contact with crops and perform harvesting operation without shattering of grain. These cutter revolve 15 times per second.

APPLICATIONS: The harvesting of different crops is carried out at present only by manual labors and the tools are used are only ordinary sickle, the cutting edge of which is specially serrated for this purpose. They vary slightly in shapes different part of country, but they are all adopted for cutting only one handful of stems or stalks of the grain crop at each cut. This kind of harvesting needs of large labour force and as the harvesting has to be carried out quickly and almost simultaneously in each tract, the demand for labour is very more, the work become very expensive and labour to very difficult to get even at high wages therefore “CROP HARVESTER IN AGRICULTURAL APPROACH” has brought into existence which carry out this process easily and fastly.

One sense of the name refers to frames with teeth (also called shanks) that pierce the soil as they are dragged through it linearly. Another sense refers to machines that use rotary motion of disks or teeth to accomplish a similar result. The rotary tiller is a principal example. 12.2 Floors cleaner A floor cleaner machine to use cleaning of a floor in home, mall, offices, etc. so in this machine remove the cutter & fix floor cleaning brush. This process is easy to clean floor as compare to the human effort. 12.3 Agricultural spryer In agriculture, a sprayer is a piece of equipment that spray nozzles to apply herbicides, pesticides, and fertilizers to agricultural crops. Sprayers range in size from man-portable units (typically backpacks with spray guns) to trailed sprayers that are connected to this machine.
