Make Coconut Husking Machine
Husking a coconut is tedious task to do. to husk it you should have a proper technique and some basic tools. But this current machine is bit different and anyone can achieve good productivity with it. This machine uses simple lever mechanism to generate enough force for husking. A detailed video has added with step by step guide. To make this I have used some available structural members at workshop.
Consider checking my old instructable to find one of the husking technique with basic workshop tools.
Plan and Working Principal
See attached plan. It is showing basic arrangement of machine. It consist two blades , one is fixed and other is movable. Movable blade is welded with a lever and its placement is in right angle. Hope this plan is self explanatory and anyone knowledge with welding can easily understand it.
Image 1: Showing two blades, movable and fixed. movable blade is short in length for welding over lever.
Image 2: showing welding plan for movable blade. base edge of blade will weld on threaded part of bolt. & Two nut will act as hinge here.
I don't have much photos of process but I have made a full video of process. Please consider watching it to understand complete design.
Cheers!!
