ALAT BANTU TRANSPORTASI BARANG DI AREA TANGGA MENGGUNAKAN TENAGA LISTRIK

Abstract

Manually transporting goods is still commonly found in goods transfer activities within the Bangka Belitung State Manufacturing Polytechnic. While the normal limit for transportation that is permitted without assistive devices according to the National Occupational Health and Safety Commission is 34-50 kg, if it exceeds this limit, assistive devices must be used (NIOSH, 1997). Trolleys that can be used to pass stairs or stairs climbing trolleys to transport goods that are large in size or have large dimensions and heavyweights are still rare. For the transportation of goods with a weight of 34-50 kg, the use of a motor on the stairs climbing trolley can help lighten the load needed to pull the trolley. In addition, the function of the driving motor on the stair’s climbing trolley is to keep the trolley from slipping. The method used in the manufacturing process of the sliding stairs trolley uses the VDI 2222 method. From the tests carried out in the stairs area, it can be concluded that the sliding stairs trolley that has been made can be used either to pass through the stairs area or on a flat surface. The obstacle that occurs in the sliding stair trolley is the bent track wheel, so the roller rotation is not optimal, and the gas does not function properly.
