This research investigates the development and evaluation of a
Pedal-Operated Street Sweeper integrated with a motorized roller broom,
designed to enhance street cleaning operations while prioritizing worker
productivity. The primary objective is to reduce the workforce demand for street
cleaners by automating key aspects of the cleaning process, thereby improving
operational efficiency. By combining a pedal-powered mechanism associated
with a battery connected to the motor powering the main tubular design of the
broom, causing it to rotate and be operational, the system offers an eco-friendly
alternative to fuel-dependent equipment for municipal waste management. The
research employs a design analysis, requirements assessment, and user
surveys conducted with 30 street sweepers to evaluate functionality, workability,
aesthetics, and safety. Survey results indicate notable improvements in efficiency
and user satisfaction, with an impact associated with reducing manual labor. The
findings reveal average mean scores of 3.16 for functionality, 3.10 for workability,
3.26 for aesthetics, and 3.15 for safety. This study concludes that the
Pedal-Operated Street Sweeper is a practical, performance, worker-friendly
urban street maintenance innovation.
