Coconut farming is one of the main cultivation in India, especially in southern states of India. It is for this Kerala is one of the largest producers of tender coconut in India. Like other fruits, it has three layers: the exocarp, mesocarp, and endocarp. The exocarp and mesocarp make up the "husk" of the coconut. Coconuts sold in the shops of non-tropical countries often have had the exocarp (outermost layer) removed. The flesh inside the seed of the coconut is only edible. So it is required to dehusk the coconut, remove the fibre and break the coconut seed to access the flesh. The proposed machine a Coconut Breaker Extractor Grater which can break a de-husked coconut into two pieces, collect coconut water and grate the coconut pieces into desiccated coconut. The main highlight of the proposed project is that there is no contact between the tool and hands of the user both in breaking and grating of the coconut. For the proposed machine, it is required to introduce a de-husked coconut and fix it on the arms of the machine. The main merits of the proposed machine are it is feasible in terms of economy, time and effort, enhanced safety of the user by eliminating injuries caused primarily due to improper handling of the grater tool.
