| Abstract | ||||
| Agricultural and animal products' mechanical and physical qualities are crucial in the design of a wide range of agricultural equipment. The quail eggs of length, diameter, mean value diameter, volume, sphericity, mass, shape index, packaging coefficient of eggs, shell mass, and shell thickness were identified. The static friction coefficients between quail eggs surfaces and rubber, plywood, plastic, and cardboard surfaces were measured. The mechanical Behavior of quail eggs was investigated in terms of average rupture force, deformation, and absorbed energy. The egg tests' X axis and Z axis were crammed. The following measurements and calculations for quail eggs of length and diameter, sphericity, mean diameter, surface area, egg mass, volume and packaging coefficient and egg shells of thickness, and mass were: 32.66 mm, 25.86 mm 85.61 %, 27.94 mm, 2455 mm2, 11.74 g, 11464 mm3, 0.439, 0.24 mm and 1.342 g respectively. The coefficients of friction on rubber, plywood, plastic, and cardboard surfaces were 0.47, 0.33, 0.37, and 0.45, respectively. The rubber surface had the most friction, followed by cardboard, plastic, and plywood. When quail eggs were loaded along the X-axis, the greatest rupture force, absorbed energy, and deformation were obtained. Compression along the Z-axis required the most un-compressive power to break the eggs compared to the X-front pressure axis. The rupture force, absorbed energy, and deformation along the X-front axis were calculated to be 13.22 N, 7.41 N mm, and 1.66 mm, respectively. | ||||
