Abstract

Normally most of tennis courts are situated at outdoor area. When the court is at outdoor area, it will be exposed to weather, which is the court will be wet after raining. Tennis is a sport which is not suitable to play when the court is wet. It is because playing on wet surface can increase the chance of injury. Tennis court dryer machine was developed to make drying tennis court surface become easier. Besides that, drying tennis court surface by using manual method will take longer time and need more manpower to dry the surface area. By using the squeegee and blower to dry the court, the squeegee in the front will push water inside the court to the edge of the court. The blower will be placed at backside of scooter and PVC pipe is used to distribute air to the driven surface. Wet tennis court surface can be dried by using this machine as it will reduce time to dry by just driving the machine through the wet surface. Hence, tennis players can play tennis game without delaying the game. This machine will undergo fabrication process and the part fabricated will be assemble to form as one complete product. The complete tennis court dryer machine is then going proceed to testing process. Data of drying the tennis court surface was taken during the testing process and the time to dry tennis court by using machine compared to by using manual was reduced 50%. Besides that, this machine also reduced human effort.
