CHAPTER I
THE PROBLEM AND ITS BACKGROUND
Introduction
The world is suffering due to a pandemic that causes loss of lives, poor economy, and other
effects of the COVID-19. It started in China around December 2019; WHO announced it as a global
crisis or a pandemic on March 11, 2020. The COVID-19 still affects the economy and small
households. Globally, large and small countries were heavily influenced by the pandemic because not
everyone is allowed to leave home when the virus is at its peak. The businesses and other services
were shut down and forces to be closed by the WHO to ensure employees and everyone's safety.
Even the cases of recovery rise, and the precautionary for the COVID-19 is still mandatory. There are
already out vaccines for public use, but the Philippines has no access yet to mass importation of any
of them, and the only thing that we can do is prevent the spread of the diseases. Many parts of our
society have been affected, particularly the travel and tourism business, the service and manufacturer
sectors that the cycle of supply chains disrupted, and many people's livelihood and employment. The
education sectors are also affected by the pandemic. We face struggles and difficulties in learning
because of the new system of education that the government has implemented. The pandemic affects
not just the social, physical, and health of human beings but also emotional stress and depression.
The study's main objective is to develop a device that will help the people in public avoid the
spread of diseases such as COVID 19. A device that will lessen the spread of the virus, especially in
school facilities. Maintaining the proper hygiene of every student or personnel will possibly stop the
spread of the virus. Putting up this device in the entrance of the schools or any vicinities will
2
encourage the people to practice hand washing often. In that simple way, we can contribute to the
prevention of the spread of the diseases.
Foot pedal hand washing station is a low-cost hand washing machine made up of readily
available materials that can be easily acquired. It is a machine that generates power through human
pedalling, inexpensive parts, and has very low repairing and maintenance cost. The researchers intend to
directly address the people's problems through foot pedal hand washing to promote and encourage
proper hygiene and cleanliness.
Objectives of the Study
The general objective of this study is to develop a low-cost, durable, and portable pedal
handwashing stations.
Specifically, it will aim to:
1. Design a low-cost portable pedal hand washing station;
2. Assess the materials used in the development of the project;
3. Evaluate project in terms of:
a. Functionality
b. Reliability
c. Usability
d. Portability
e. Workability
3
f. Safety
Significance of the study
This study will help people inside the school in maintaining physical hygiene and preventing the
virus from spreading.
Students and other school staff. Students, teachers, and other school staff can easily maintain proper
hygiene to prevent the spread of coronavirus and other communicable diseases.
Parents. Parents can ensure the health and safety of their children going to school.
Future researchers. This study can serve as a basis for further research on preventing the spread of
coronavirus in schools.
Scope and Delimitation
The study aims to develop a portable hand washing station at low cost. The study's expert
evaluators consist of BSU Drafting professors and some administrators during the first and second-
semester academic year 2021 - 2022.
The project aims to be distributed in the schools and some public places around Bustos and
Baliwag. The study will benefit everyone since it can help us prevent the spread of diseases such as the
coronavirus by maintaining the cleanliness of our hands. It can be used in some areas in the entrances of
the establishments that have no water lines or lavatories. Its portability makes the project more useful
4
since it can be placed in any area where needed. The water residue can also be used in watering the
plants and or for cleaning of the floor.
The project is limited to small amount of water supply only that can be refilled at least once a
day or by demand.
CHAPTER II
THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK
5
Related Literature and Studies
This chapter includes ideas, finished studies, generalizations or conclusions, and experts'
methodologies to be familiarized with the study's information. All these related literature will support
the importance of our device.
According to the World Health Organization, hand hygiene is a general term that refers to any
activity of hand washing, for the purpose of removing dust, dirt, and/or microorganisms, the act of
cleaning one's hands with or without the use of water or other liquid, or with the use of soap. When face-
to-face classes begin, it is very important for all learners to have proper hand hygiene. The World Health
Organization estimates that every day around the world, a thousand people die from infections acquired
through physical contact, so it is essential and necessary to ensure proper hygiene. The World Health
Organization has shown some data to suggest that the COVID-19 virus is transmitted through
respiratory droplets or touch. Contact transmission occurs when contaminated hands touch the mucosa
of the mouth, nose, or eyes; contaminated hands can also transfer the virus from one surface to another,
facilitating indirect contact transmission.
Consequently, to avoid the spread of the COVID19 virus, hand hygiene is extremely necessary. The
transmission of other viruses and bacteria causing common colds, flu and pneumonia is also interrupted,
thereby reducing the overall burden of illness. And WHO recommends that one or more hand hygiene
stations (either for hand washing with soap and water or for hand rubbing with an alcohol-based hand
rub) should be installed in front of every public entrance, particularly when the face-to-face class starts
in schools.
On April 1 2020, WHO provided interim guidance recommending to all Member States that
hand hygiene facilities should be made compulsory in front of public and private commercial buildings
6
as well as at all transport hubs. In particular, individuals in heavily populated areas would benefit from
enhanced facilities for hand hygiene at home and in public places.
UNICEF supports the idea of WHO of having a hand washing in every public place, and they
suggest that Low-cost, rapidly scaled up solutions for hand hygiene made from local materials such as
the tippy tap can foster community engagement and ownership, but evidence suggests that these hand
washing facilities might break easily and it's unclear whether they lead to sustainable behaviour change.
Higher-end, more durable, attractive, and disability accessible commercial products are more expensive
and not as easy to manufacture and repair locally but might be more likely to encourage sustained
behaviour change. They said that handwashing stations should be appropriate for the intended user(s) or
the use case (households, markets, health care facilities, schools, places of worship, public transportation
hubs, refugee camps, etc.). Three sets of criteria should be taken into consideration. First, the station
should enable recommended hand washing. Second, the design should be adapted to the local context,
allowing local manufacturing, management and repair and adequate use of water and soap. Third, the
design should provide a pleasant, convenient user experience for all users.
Project Design
Dr. Jim Watt designed a handwashing device called "Mukombe or the tippy tap. It is a simple
water dispenser that enables people to wash their hands without wasting water. The device's water
system is foot-operated; however, the soap is not, but it is still hygienic.
In the 1950s, they invented the Automatic Hand Washing Machine, but they were not produced
for commercial until the 1980s when they appeared in airports. However, it is very expensive to install
this kind of device because it consists of sensors or electronic technology. Most luxurious hotels, malls,
and restaurants have this device.
7
Later developments, Johnson, Davies, and Lingard, develop a different variety of handwashing
devices. It includes the Hand Washing Device with drying equipment and a Hand Washing Device with
an electro-mechanical device that provides time elements initiated with water flow. However, these
devices are made of expensive materials, and they are commonly found in luxurious places.
All the previous handwashing devices offered a guide to our design. Our design contributes to
preventing the spread of viruses in a simple manner and affordable materials. It is a low-cost, durable,
and portable pedal hand washing station that can be used in public places, especially in school—the
device which will be designed by the proponents provides a touch-less hand washing experience. The
water and soap are both foot-operated, so it is very hygienic.
Materials
PVC pipe and connectors
According to Mulder and Knot (2001), PVC was officially discovered and implemented in public
utility system in 1912. The substance used in making PVC was a compounded element which is
polyvinyl and chlorine. This perfect mixture gave the scientist milky white substance, which solidified
after it cooled. After several research, the polyvinyl chloride material was more stable and durable than
other materials; it also lights in weight rather than metal and steel. PVC will provide more lighter, which
improves the portability and workability of the device.
Importance of Hand Washing
8
Harapan, Itoh & Mudatsir (2019) state that many people believed that COVID-19 is caused by
animals that were only transmitted to humans, but, as a genomic study has been made, they have
gathered proof that it also came from human that has been transferred as time passes by. There is no
exact location where it possibly happened. However, the market is one of the places that they think
caused the virus's rapid spread because of non-stop interaction between people.
According to Moore, Robins & Arbogast (2020), handwashing plays an important role in preventing
COVID-19, especially for the health care workers exposed to different germs caused by their
surroundings. By doing this action it is proven that it reduces the number of infected.
A group infected family and front liners have been recorded because of close contact. Less than
10% of patients had visited the market before they got infected, while 70% were not. People who have
face-to-face interaction with someone carrying the virus have a high chance of getting infected when
they cough or sneeze near them (Harapan, Itoh & Mudatsir, 2019).
Guota et al. (2020) said that because of the rapid spread of COVID 19 the productivity of a
person lessens as they are working virtually, and it affects their performance in their jobs.
Lie et al. (2020), states that being infected without knowing about it is one of the reasons for rapid
outbreak of Corona Virus. In China, it is estimated that 86% of the travelers were not aware that they are
already infected and continue traveling inside and outside of the country, and this is why the
transmission rate for undocumented infected persons was high.
