Chapter III Result and Discussion The Fruit Juice Extractor was conceptualized by the researcher in their shop classes at the Electro-Mechanical Technology Shops, College of Technology, DON MARIANO MARCOS MEMORIAL STATE UNIVERSITY (DMMMSU), Mid La Union Campus, San Fernando City. It was a product if creativity of the researchers. The Fruit Juice Extractor is a machine used to extract juice. The design, fabrication and construction of the fruit juice extractor involved the following processes such as designing, measuring, cutting, assembling, mounting, connecting and testing the individual materials and devices to produce precise equipment. Figure 1 shows the perspective view of the Fruit Juice Extractor consisting of various parts that play an important role in the smooth and safe operation of the machine. The following are the main important parts of the Motorized Fruit Juice Extractor: (1) Base & Barrel / Carrier Assembly (2) Motor (3) Barrel / Cylindrical (4) Type of compactom (5) Body (6) Belt (7) Blade Assembly (8) Pulley

Fig. 3 Exploded View of Fruit Juice Extractor The Fabrication of the frame began by measuring and cutting using the tape measure and hacksaw respectively. It is spotted and full welded in terms of its construction. It was grounded To remove rust on it then applied paint to avoid rust. The machine is operated using the motor. When the machine is operated, the direction of fruit juice is downward and the juice will compress. When the motor start rotating clockwise, the drive shaft rotates together with other gear to start extracting fruit juice. Figures 1,2 and 3 shows the different views and moving parts of Fruit Juice Extractor Generally, the Fruit Juice Extractor is beneficial the other company who are engage in extracting the juice in a better and in easy way. Unlike traditional one, they need the blender to extract a juice. Unlike the Fruit Juice Extractor, Just turn on the motor then the FJE will operate and the output is ready to serve.

TEST AND REVISION Table 1.shows the test and revisions conducted to ensure the good performance of the Fruit Juice Extractor. In the first test, it was observed that the pillow block bearings are not properly aligned. To remedy the defects, the researchers aligned the pillow block bearings properly so that the Fruit Juice Extractor will function well. Table 1. Test | Observe Defects Revisions | 1. Pillow block bearing not properly align. | - aligned pillow block bearings | 2. Bolt & nut | -change it into blade | In the second test, it was observed that bolt & nut is not applicable to use. To remedy the defects, the researchers change it into blade so that the Fruit Juice Extractor will function well.

Evaluation of the Fruit Juice Extractor Level of Technical Performance Table 2.shows that the level of performance of the Fruit Juice Extracor was 3.5,described as good. This was supported bt three good indicators and one very good.”Durability of parts” yielded the highest mean (3.61) described as very good. Table 7. Level of Performance Indicators | Mean | Descriptive equivalent | 1. Durability | 3.61 | Very good | 2.Safety of operations | 3.5 | Good | 3. Precision of design | 3.36 | Good | 4. Speed and accuracy | 3.36 | Good | Average Mean | 3.5 | Good | Items 2, 3 and 4 were good. This means that the Fruit Juice Extractor was safe to operate because of its technical performance. The precision of the design was much important because it is the physical appearance of the Fruit Juice Extractor. Unlike Traditional they need a The finding implies that the Fruit Juice Extractor is now we faster and easier to squeeze a juice which is now ready to serve. The findings affirm hypothesis which states that level of technical performance of FJE is good. Therefore, the hypothesis is accepted.

Level of Functionality Table 8 shows that the level of functionality of the Fruit Juice Extractor was 3.3 described as highly functional. Simplicity of mechanism yielded the highest mean rating of 3.4, described as highly functional. This indicates that the Fruit Juice Extractor function well in squeezing a fruits and compress a fruits mechanism. Table 8. Level of Functionality Indicators | Mean | Descriptive Equivalent | 1. Simplicity of Mechanism | 3.4 | Moderate Functional | 2. Variation of performance mechanism | 3.12 | Moderate Functional | 3. Variation of types of materials | 3.3 | Moderate Functional | Average Mean | 3.3 | Moderate Functional | “Variation of performance mechanism” yielded the lowest mean rating of 3.3, described as good. This indicates that the Fruit Juice Extractor is moderately functional that can be in improvesome research. This finding affirm the hypothesis which state that level of functionality of the FJE is good. Therefore, the hypothesis is accepted. Level of Acceptability Table 9 shows that the level of acceptability was 3.50,describe as highly acceptable.”Durability” and “overall appearance” yielded the same rating of 3.1, described as moderate acceptable. This means that Fruit Juice Extractor was tough and not easy to shatter, the painting is nice to the design and easy to operate.” User friendliness” yielded the lowest mean of 3, describe as moderate acceptable. This means that the Fruit Juice Extractor was safe to operate, the user should use the proper safety attires for safety operation.

Operations Manual for t the Fruit Juice Extractor I. Description The design of the Fruit Juice Extractor was based on the suggestions and recommendations of the end users of the old existing machine. The FJE is equipped with innovative roller assembly. This component is bolted to the plate block bearing attached with pulley with innovated design to ensure smooth rotation of the roller. II. How to operate the FJE setting up the FJE 1. Install the FJE on a Flat surface. 2. Be sure that the parts are properly bolted. 3. Check all parts to ensure the smooth operation of the machine. Important: Before starting to operate the machine, check properly all necessary clearances of all moving parts to ensure safe and smooth operation of the FJE. Also, ensure the tightness of the nut and bolts of all fittings for proper tightness. General Safety Tips for safety Operation for the FJE to prevent accident and injury, the following steps must be observed. 1. Keep the machine wet by lubricating the bearing and shafting. 2. Always place the machine on the flat surface 3. Always check that all parts are properly bolted.
