A Proposed Study of Multipurpose Car Repair Undercarriage for Automotive Workshop

The background of this study is focused on a multipurpose mechanic car repair undercarriage system can be framed around the importance of practical automotive training workshop and the need for innovative tools that enhance the learning experience. The versatile undercarriage repair system addresses the challenges faced by automotive technicians when maintaining the underside of vehicles. Traditional methods often cause physical strain and inefficiency due to limited access and inadequate support tools. Challenges in automotive repairs mechanics often face significant challenges when working under vehicles, including limited space and the need for ergonomic support. Traditional creepers can lead to discomfort and inefficiency due to inadequate design features. Issues such as unwanted movement while working, difficulty accessing tools, and poor lighting further complicate the repair process. When doing undercarriage repairs, mechanics frequently encounter a number of difficulties, particularly because there is insufficient ergonomic support, which causes pain and muscular strain throughout extended workdays. Furthermore, working in awkward positions with bad posture can lead to long-term health issues and physical injuries, which will ultimately lower productivity. Because manual movement is necessary to reposition equipment, it further reduces efficiency and lengthens repair times. In addition to complicating the workflow, limited accessibility to tools and car components slows down and reduces the effectiveness of the repair procedure. Additionally, mobility and stability problems make it difficult to operate repair tools, particularly in small workshop spaces, which compromises performance and safety. Hence, innovations in creeper design aim to address these challenges by improving stability, mobility, and accessibility of tools. To address this issue, a multifunctional automotive-specific car repair mechanism has been designed for better handling and comfort, facilitating repairs in confined spaces. This system is designed using Inventor software and made with car repair boards, stainless steel, motor drills, batteries, leather sponges, adjustable wheels, and more. The problem that can be faced is an ergonomic issue; when someone performs work, they will feel muscle tension and experience some back or shoulder injuries. The presence of a multifunctional automotive- specific car mechanic can reduce muscle tension or injuries. The battery in this tool will power the drill motor so that it can move automatically forward and backward without using leg power, ensuring user comfort after use. This multifunctional system not only enhances the efficiency of undercarriage repairs but also promotes safety and comfort for automotive technicians, ultimately improving the overall service quality in the automotive repair industry. the development of a multipurpose mechanic car repair undercarriage system not only aligns with educational objectives but also addresses practical challenges faced by automotive technicians. By integrating innovative design elements that prioritize ergonomics and functionality, this project aims to enhance the efficiency and safety of undercarriage repairs in both educational settings and professional automotive environments. The multipurpose car repair undercarriage design must emphasize on durability, safety, ergonomics, and utility. While safety elements like locking mechanisms and anti- slip surfaces are essential for preventing accidents, ergonomic features can lessen the physical strain on mechanics and increase ease of use. All things considered, improvements in undercarriage repair equipment can result in safer, more pleasant, and more effective working conditions for technicians, promoting user safety and productivity in the vehicle repair sector.
