B. Yapalaparvi Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering Department of Mechanical Engineering Hirasugar Institute of Technology, Nidasoshi, Karnataka Hirasugar Institute of Technology, Nidasoshi, Karnataka (India) (India) Abstract The wheelchair is one of the most commonly used assistive devices for enhancing personal mobility, which is a precondition for enjoying human rights and living in dignity and assists people with disabilities to become more productive members of their communities. For many people, an appropriate, well-designed and well-fitted wheelchair can be the first step towards inclusion and participation in society. When the need is not met, people with disabilities are isolated and do not have access to the same opportunities as others within their own communities. Providing wheelchairs that are fit for the purpose not only enhances mobility but begins a process of opening up a world of education, work and social life [1]. The development of national policies and increased training opportunities in the design, production and supply of wheelchairs are essential next steps. Every human being need to move from one place another to fulfill his requirements and to accomplish that requirements he will travel from one place to another place by walking which is a basic medium of transportation. But it is exceptional in case of physically disables (Persons don’t have both legs). In order to support and help such a person’s we designed a special manually lever operated wheel chair.

  • 2013 Catalog
    1 www.surlybikes.com 1-877-743-3191 AND NOW A WORD FROM THE BIG GIANT HEAD In the last 100 years technology has striven to improve upon the functionality of steel as a building material (as they have the vinyl record for entertainment and wool for clothing). One school of thought has been obsessed with creating new materials that solve problems in a different ways (aluminum, titanium, carbon fiber). From our point of view this adds endless layers of complexity and often creates new problems along the way. Another school has spent its time refining and improving the original material, arriving at what is modern steel…it is for the most part the same stuff your grand daddy rode, just stronger, lighter, and more refined to specific purposes. Surly is of this second school; we like to use technology to improve the wheel, not reinvent it. We like the refinement process. We don’t use new technologies for the sake of using new technologies, but rather look at what we want to achieve and apply what works, whether its new or not. That’s why we make our bikes out of steel. It’s not because we are old fashioned, or curmudgeonly (though many of us are in fact curmudgeons). We’re not retrogrouch crusaders. We use steel because it works consistently and inexpensively. It’s not that other materials aren’t cool. We are interested and intrigued by the properties of all the things that make up our world. But for the kind of bikes we make, for the rides we like and the things we value, steel can’t be beat.

  • Getting Started
    Cyclocross-Ch1-3.qxd 8/8/07 10:40 PM Page 15 CHAPTER 1 Getting Started A bike, a helmet, and a license are all you need to race, and there are plenty of successful racers who started their careers with nothing more than that. It helps, though, to have some guidance. Getting involved with a cycling club that already has members com- peting is a good first step to take on your way to racing ’cross. It is pos- sible to go it alone and join your national federation as an individual, but in a club or team you will be exposed to good advice and gain other benefits that will help speed your progress. If you can find a club or team in your local area that has an interest in ’cross, then so much the better; perhaps it already promotes a race or has a team who travels to- gether to races. Whatever the case, if you can get involved with some- body who knows about ’cross, it will save you a lot of the time you would otherwise spend learning the ropes and organizing everything on your own. If you are unsure how to find a club, contact your na- tional cycling federation, which can provide you with a list of clubs in your area. Failing that, try your local bike shop; the owners or employ- ees of reasonably good shops usually know what is going on locally. If you intend to compete in any large races or hope to compete abroad, you will need a racing license.

    List of bicycle parts Bicycle parts For other cycling related terms (besides parts) see Glossary of cycling. List of bicycle parts by alphabetic order: Axle: as in the generic definition, a rod that serves to attach a wheel to a bicycle and provides support for bearings on which the wheel rotates. Also sometimes used to describe suspension components, for example a swing arm pivot axle Bar ends: extensions at the end of straight handlebars to allow for multiple hand positions Bar plugs or end caps: plugs for the ends of handlebars Basket: cargo carrier Bearing: a device that facilitates rotation by reducing friction Bell: an audible device for warning pedestrians and other cyclists Belt-drive: alternative to chain-drive Bicycle brake cable: see Cable Bottle cage: a holder for a water bottle Bottom bracket: The bearing system that the pedals (and cranks) rotate around. Contains a spindle to which the crankset is attached and the bearings themselves. There is a bearing surface on the spindle, and on each of the cups that thread into the frame. The bottom bracket may be overhaulable (an adjustable bottom bracket) or not overhaulable (a cartridge bottom bracket). The bottom bracket fits inside the bottom bracket shell, which is part of the bicycle frame Brake: devices used to stop or slow down a bicycle. Rim brakes and disc brakes are operated by brake levers, which are mounted on the handlebars. Band brake is an alternative to rim brakes but can only be installed at the rear wheel. Coaster brakes are operated by pedaling backward Brake lever:

  • Bicycle Fast Fixes
    Bicycle Fast Fixes You probably already know that bicycles are awesome; they are good for getting around town, good for exercise, good for the environment, and just plain good fun to ride. How about doing a Fast Fix Project that helps users keep their bicycles in good repair and on the road where they belong? There are plenty of other things you can fix on a bike, so feel free to propose a bicycle fix that you don’t see here. Just be sure that your proposed fix isn’t already documented on our site. Since parts are different for each make and model, you can search to see if, for example, there is a rear derailleur guide for the "Shimano Tiagra RD-4703" or whatever component you are proposing to work on. If you have any questions about the terminology used, check out Sheldon Brown’s Bicycle Glossary, Park Tool’s Repair Help Resource, or Jim Langley’s Parts Diagram.
