Abstract

The design and development of a rice bucket trolley with tri-wheel stair climbing aims to enhance the efficiency and ease of transporting rice buckets within a café setting. This project originates from the observation of workers manually moving rice buckets without dedicated transportation methods, leading to concerns about potential injuries and inefficiencies. The trolley's design incorporates features such as a handle, castor wheels, and tri-wheel stair climbing to improve functionality and maneuverability. Through extensive research and iterative design processes such as the House of Quality, Product Design Specification, Concept Design, and Concept Evaluation, the trolley's specifications were refined to meet the specific needs of café workers. Additionally, the fabrication process involved selecting suitable materials, estimating costs, and implementing safety measures. The final product addresses concerns related to worker safety and ease of use. Overall, the design and development of the rice bucket trolley with tri-wheel stair climbing represents a practical solution to streamline operations and promote a safer working environment in café settings.
