Functional Design, Fabrication and Testing of Book Stacking Machine
Abstract: Library is an organized collection of sources of information and similar resources, made accessible to a defined community for reference or borrowing. It provides physical or digital access to material, and a physical building or room Libraries range in size from a few shelves of books to several millions of books where at least 1 worker to 100s of workers are required just to stack the books. Since last 20 years man power cost is tremendously rising due to rapid globalization. To reduce this man power requirement, we can automate libraries with book picking and stacking robots. These are equipped with the mechanisms namely Jaw Pulling mechanism, Jaw Rotary mechanism, Lifting and Lowering mechanism and Travelling mechanism and sensing elements. Similar kind of mechanisms can be used in super markets and warehouses to stack the material in right place. The book stacking machine can be assisted as a mini librarian and the project concentrates on the mechanisms which can be employed in a stacking robot.
Keywords: library automation, stacking machine, electrical operation of mechanisms, robot mechanisms
