PART III : INNOVATIONS FOR PUNJAB10Trench digging machineWhile on a trip, the innovators noticed laborers manually digging the ground to makelong trenches to lay telephone cables, taking months to complete the work. This inspiredthe innovators to build a mechanized equipment to dig trenches rapidly.The trench digging unit developed by the innovators can be fitted to any tractor. Themodified unit has a hydraulic lever to adjust digging depth and to maneuver the runningunit, a planetary gear system and motion converter unit to achieve speed reduction anddeliver power from the tractor.Radhey Shyam TailorNathulal JangidYusuf KhanRajasthanThe compact machine can dig narrow and deep channels evenly, on hard and soft soilconditions. In one hour, it can dig a pit 65 meters long, 5 feet deep and 14 inches wide,while consuming only 2.5 liters of diesel per hour. The equipment costs less than halfthat of imported models.
