ABSTRACT
Manually driven brick making machine was developed by Modak (1982) in the absence of any design data mostly on the basis of intution. This machine consisted of three units Viz (1) manually driven flywheel with a speed rising transmission conceptualised in this and previously published papers as flywheel motor (2) mechanical transmission consisting of a spiral jaw clutch and torque amplification unit between flywheel shaft and process unit input shaft and (3) the process unit consisting of an auger, cone and die. Inspite of intution based design of this system it proved to be economically viable. Hence it was thought to develope completely and scientifically the entire system.
