ABSTRACT
With the increasing levels of technology, the efforts being put to produce
any kind of work has been continuously decreasing. The efforts required in
achieving the desired output can be effectively and economically be decreased by
the implementation of better designs. Power screws are used to convert rotary
motion into translatory motion. A screw jack is an example of a power screw in
which a small force applied in a horizontal plane is used to raise or lower a large
load. The principle on which it works is similar to that of an inclined plane. The
mechanical advantage of a screw jack is the ratio of the load applied to the effort
applied. The screw jack is operated by turning a lead screw. The height of the jack
is adjusted by turning ahead screw and this adjustment can be done either manually
or by integrating an electric motor. In this project, an electric motor will be
integrated with the screw jack and the electricity needed for the operation will be
taken from the battery of the vehicle and thereby the mechanical advantage will be
increased.
