Chapter one

1.Introduction
1.1 History or background
Jack is a machine element which used for lifting heavy loads by Appling small force. Jack is also
a mechanical device used for lifting huge body manually and automatically. Before many years
the automotive world become so closely associated with the word jack.
Car jack is mainly used to lift heavy load or apply a great force. Car jack work on the principle,
which a relative small force applied then with this force we can lift and support heavy load or
move massive object into a desired position.
In the repair and maintenance of automobiles (car), it is often necessary to raise an automobile to
change a tire or access the underside of the automobile. Accordingly, a variety of car jacks have
been developed for lifting an automobile from a ground surface.
Available car jacks, however, are typically manually operated and therefore require substantial
laborious physical effort on the part of the user.
A lifting jack was first design by Leonardo da Vinci in the late 1400 who demonstrated the use
of the screw jack for lifting load using the threaded warm gear that was supports in drive lifting
screw jack to move the load.
In the early 1880 frank henry sleeper design a lifting a jack which was also based on principle of
a ball bearing for supporting a load and transforming rotary motion in do translation motion. This
design patent was bought by author as more Norton leading to the first Norton jacks who were
produce in Boston’s.
 design of bottle car jack with worm gear

In 1883 a Mississippi river boat captain named Josiah barret came up with an idea of the ratchet
jack which was based on the family liver and fulcrum principle. Manufacturing company took up
that chance and started the production of barrette jack. More recent screw jack designs have
concentrated on improved efficiency and durability.

1.2 Definition
The mechanically operated Bottle Car Jack (Worm Gear) is a specialized lifting device designed
specifically for automotive applications. It utilizes a worm gear mechanism to provide efficient
and precise lifting capabilities.
With its robust construction and high-quality materials, this bottle car jack offers exceptional
strength and durability. It is engineered to withstand heavy loads and provide reliable lifting
support for vehicles weighing up to 1.5 tons.
The key feature of this jack is its worm gear mechanism, which consists of a threaded screw
(worm) and a toothed wheel (gear). When the screw is rotated using the jack's handle, the gear
engages with the threads, causing the screw to move linearly. This linear motion translates into
vertical lifting force, allowing the jack to raise vehicles with ease.
The worm gear design provides several advantages. First, it offers excellent load-bearing
capacity, ensuring stability and safety during lifting operations. Second, the gear's teeth provide a
self-locking mechanism, preventing the jack from lowering unintentionally and enhancing user
confidence. Third, the worm gear arrangement allows for precise control over the lifting height,
enabling users to achieve the desired elevation with accuracy.
This bottle car jack is designed with convenience in mind. Its compact size and low minimum
height of 148 mm make it suitable for use in tight spaces and underneath vehicles with limited
ground clearance. Additionally, its lifting height of 80 mm provides sufficient range to
accommodate various maintenance and repair tasks.

single bearing is required for the screw to rotate about its axis with nut any axial movement.

This bearing is a ball bearing type this have high coefficient of friction as it is outstanding
advantage of bearing. Since he rolling elements are subjected to high local stress of varying
magnitude then the material selected is high carbon chromium steel.

Step 1: life of bearing? Average life of bearing is 5years at 10hours per day

Assuming 300 working days

LH=5 x10 x 300=15000hours

 Inside diameter of at the bottom of the jack handle cover

D6=2.25Do2=2.25x18.37=40.78mm

 Outer diameter of the bottom

D7=1.75D6=1.75x40.78 =71.38mm

4. 11 Design of base
The base is the components of mechanically operated bottle car jack which is found at the
bottom of all the often components and thus carry both the load as well as the total mass of the
components.

The material selection for this component is high strength steel

 Density=7860
 Ultimate tensile strength=620MPa
 Yield strength=415MPa
 Safety factor=2.5

In order to design this component its important follow the following procedure.

Step 1: find the width of the base and corresponding height

Width =outside diameter of the body +some clearance

w=D+15mm=71.38+15=86.38mm, since its square L=w=86.38mm

Step 2: finding the thickness of the bottom plate

t=2t=2x3=6mm where t is thickness of the body

It used to assembly the body part to the base of the jack

Where

o dc; core diameter of the bolt

o Do is nominal diameter of the bolt
o d is depth of thread
o p is pitch
o n is number of bolt which is four

the bolt suffered to highly shear stress so it need to made from high hardness and strength
material.

Mild steel is preferable material and has ultimate strength 40MPa

Cost analysis usually provided to the economist by the engineer or financial analysis. In practice
different ways of estimating cost are used. One approach is to estimate the cost are a percentage
of accumulated investment cost. Another approach might be to analysis the utility past
performance and relate specific cost items. To specific outputs and Totals.

Elements of cost may include

 Labor cost
 Material cost
 Overhead cost and other cost.

Generally, cost analysis involves the process of reporting separate elements in the cost proposal
such us, labor equipment and Materials that make up a product or service as well as it proposed
profit. It is used for cost evaluation purpose when there is lack of competition or comparable
offers in the market place.
