Abstract
Currently, the process of washing clothes is a commonly process that carried out in a household. To save human energy and washing time, a washing machine is used. There are a lot of washing machine models on the market, but in general the existing washing machine have standard functions, use electrical energy, quite expensive, and use materials that are less environmentally friendly. Based on these various shortcomings, it is necessary to design an innovative washing machine. The method used in this research is the concept of product design starting from seeing the needs to develop the desired product concept until making a product prototype. The washing machine designed in this study can be used to wash all types of clothes weighing 3 kilograms and is equipped with clothes drying device with a capacity of 20 clothes that rotates during the washing process, so it will speed up the drying process. In addition, the materials used come from secondhand goods, so the price is economic. This washing machine is not designed use electrical energy but kinetic energy, so it is environmentally friendly and can be also used as an exercise tool that can the user's body keep healthy and ergonomic when used.

Summary
Perancangan dilakukan dengan menggunakan pendekatan perancangan dan pengembangan produk yang memiliki tahapan mengidentifikasi kelemahan produk yang ada saat ini, menentukan konsep produk yang akan dirancang, menentukan spesifikasi produk, hingga membuat sketsa rancangan dan merancang prototipe (Ulrich & Eppinger, 2004). Rancangan mesin cuci yang dibuat menggunakan material yang berasal dari barang bekas. Hasil dan Pembahasan Rancangan prototipe dari mesin cuci yang dibuat di Laboratorium Proses Produksi Teknik Industri tampak sampingnya diperlihatkan dalam Gambar 2. Rancangan mesin cuci yang dibuat terdiri dari beberapa komponen, yaitu tabung luar dan tabung dalam yang berlubang-lubang. Bagian bawah tabung dalam akan dihubungkan ke alat olah raga dengan menggunakan pipa dan juga dipasangkan gear untuk memutar pipa tersebut. Alat olah raga tersebut dirancang memiliki alas duduk dan pegangan tangan yang mirip dengan sepeda. Sumber tenaga utama dari mesin cuci ini adalah energi kinetik dari putaran pedal sepeda yang dikayuh oleh manusia, seperti diperlihatkan dalam Gambar 3
