The dual-purpose creeper with a tool tray was developed to address the lack of affordable,
efficient mechanic creepers in the automotive industry. Traditional creepers are often
inaccessible, making it challenging for mechanics to perform tasks like inspections,
maintenance, and repairs on the undercarriage and topside components such as brakes, oil
systems, suspension, engines, and transmissions. This prototype combines under-chassis
and topside capabilities, streamlining workflows and improving efficiency. Its integrated
tool tray further enhances productivity by keeping essential tools within easy reach.
Fabricated according to design specifications, the prototype incorporates insights from
automotive professionals, resulting in a portable, user-friendly tool suitable for level
surfaces. Testing revealed significant efficiency improvements, with teamwork reducing
the time required to raise and lower the creeper. It also demonstrated durability, performing
reliably under user weights ranging from 50 kg to 90 kg. The design optimizes workspace
layouts, saves time, and promotes better organization in crowded workshops. The
prototype received a highly acceptable evaluation rating of 4.69, showcasing its practicality
and effectiveness in the automotive field. Key features include ergonomic padding,
adjustable positions, and a space-saving design, ensuring comfort and reducing fatigue
during extended use. While the complex design may require some training for optimal use,
the dual-purpose creeper offers a cost-effective solution that enhances service quality,
technician satisfaction, and overall productivity. By addressing industry needs, the creeper
proves to be an invaluable tool for automotive maintenance, especially for professional
shops seeking innovative, low-cost equipment.
