Abstract |
|
The researchers employed the mechanical motion of a playground seesaw to induce pumping activity. The research's goal was to make a low-cost prototype energy device out of a playground seesaw and recycled materials. Water can be pumped from a bore well, a sump, or a rainwater collection tank. It uses the collective energy of the children or the operators to pump water. See-saw pumps use force lift technology to transport water from a well to an overhead tank above ground level for storage and distribution. It does not require the use of electricity to function. In See-Saw pumps, which are based on the same principle, the reciprocating action is employed to move the valves of a water cylinder. The technology is listed below. Because of technological advancements it is relatively easy to maintain at the village level because the technology beneath the earth is equivalent to that of a hand pump. |
