About the Practice
WEB Cleaning
Detail:
He developed the first prototype within a few days of conceiving the idea years very small using a small DC motor, two torch batteries and a piece of rod. It was a small hand held device made from items available at his home. Then later in 2006, he improved it and developed the second prototype with some improvements by spending Rs. 250/- of his own. This model used two long rods that could be attached and removed as per the requirements. It was this cob web cleaner whose entry was sent to NIF, Ahmedabad for the 5th National Biennial Competition. Later in 2007, Ankush developed the third prototype with the financial support of Rs. 500/- from NIF, Ahmedabad. This was same as the earlier one. In 2009 he has developed an improved version of the same. The motorized cob web cleaner has a 6 V DC motor, soft plastic brush, long plastic pipe, extendable wires and one electric switch. It uses four pencil cells. The motor is attached to the end of the pipe, which is used to locate the motor at the place of the cobweb. The plastic bush is attached to the motor shaft. When it is switched on, the shaft rotates the bush, which winds up the cob webs. This device can also be operated by domestic AC supply of 230 V using an adaptor having output of 6 V DC. As the weight of the device is under 500 g, it is easy to use and is convenient. The pipe is in three pieces, which are coupled to each other such that they can be folded at the hinges like that in a table lamp.
