Design of Peristaltic Pump with Mechanical Drive of Static Bike as Multi-Function Equipment

Abstract

Multi-function tool is one of the solutions offered to solve the recent problems of human beings, especially in health and water supply problem. A static bike was one of the fitness equipment resulting in wasted power. In this work, the power of static bike was proposed to drive peristaltic pump which complies water supply for human beings. The peristaltic pump was chosen due to its simple construction and its low torsion requirement to transport water with the height of five meters. The proposed equipment was constructed by the components which were easy to find. It was examined by comparing the time whether hand and static bike driver. The experimental results showed that the proposed equipment which integrating the function of the peristaltic pump and static bike produced multi-function tool which was versatile to do the daily sport of human beings.
