The mechanism of separation of tested condoms in the sanitary condom testing machine V2.1

Project Details

My picture

After completing the condom testing in the condom testing machine and after completing the condom rolling process, it is necessary to separate the condoms based on their test results. In the development and construction of a condom testing machine, it is necessary to separate the condoms according to the zone where the hole in the condom is located.

In general, in the process of separating tested condoms, we will have 4 modes:

1-Condoms without holes (Good)

2-Condoms that have a hole in the first area (the hole is in the upper third of the condom)

3-Condoms that have a hole in the second area (the hole is in the middle third of the condom)

4-Condoms that have a hole in the third area (the hole is in the bottom third of the condom)

An overview of the mechanism can be found in the following illustrations.

Some Cool Title

This condom separation mechanism uses a DC motor with a high-speed gearbox and a series of Hall-effect sensors. The device's central controller instructs the DC motor how much to rotate at any given time. In this mechanism, a funnel is connected to the shaft of the DC motor, which rotates when the shaft rotates. The DC motor can move the funnel to the correct position based on the command from the central controller. Depending on the results of the condom test, when the funnel is in the correct position (good zone or one or two or three), the central controller gives the command to the DC motor and the funnel remains in this fixed position until the condom is placed in the correct container.

This system was used in the research and development phase of the project to develop and manufacture condom testers.

As the main project progressed, some parts of the mechanism were changed and new plans were implemented after the problems were solved. In the following videos you can see the different phases of testing this mechanism.

The following videos show some initial tests of this experimental mechanism.
