Primary aim of this study is to design a coconut tree climbing device for farmers and residents. It is very difficultto climb on coconut tree manually due to the constant cylindrical structure and single trunk. In other type of trees there willbe branches for holding and to support the climber.Consideringthis scenario, a device which will help the user to climb coconut tree easily useful forthe people who are having large coconut cultivation as well as residents with less coconuttrees. This kind of devices will encourage more people to come forward to agricultural sector.The mechanical structure is designed to move the structure upwards against the gravitational forces in successive upper body and lower body movements similar to a tree climber. The gripping is designed in such a way to hold the upper or lower part of the structure to the tree facilitating the upward movement. Hence to reduce human efforts and save human life we are introducing a coconut tree climbing device.
