  • Flexible Wheel Chair
    GRD Journals- Global Research and Development Journal for Engineering | Volume 1 | Issue 8 | July 2016 ISSN: 2455-5703 Flexible Wheel Chair Mahantesh Tanodi Department of Mechanical Engineering Hirasugar Institute of Technology, Nidasoshi, Karnataka (India) Sujata Huddar S. 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.

  • Design and Modification of Bicycle by Using Additional Sprockets
    Vol-3 Issue-4 2017 IJARIIE-ISSN(O)-2395-4396 DESIGN AND MODIFICATION OF BICYCLE BY USING ADDITIONAL SPROCKETS Sanjeey Reddy K Hudgikar1 S.M.Saleemuddin2 1 Professor, Mechanical Department, Lingaraj Appa Engineering College,Bidar,Karnataka,India 2 Assistant Professor, Mechanical Department, Annamachara Institute of Technology & Sciences,Rajampet,Kadapa,AP. ABSTRACT Biking is increasingly being recognized as a highly sustainable form of transportation. The present work focus on design and development of bi-cycle which can be implemented as an alternative to the two wheelers consuming large amount of fuel and polluting the environment. To overcome these problems, an effort is being made to search some other for the vehicles. Again, it is also not affordable to purchase vehicles (mopeds, scooters or motorcycles) for all the class of society. Keeping this in mind, a search for some way to cater these economically poor people as well as to provide a solution for the environmental pollution was in progress. This work deals with these problems efficiently as energy is generated utilizing the mechanical energy of the rider. Keyword: - Sprockets, Welding, Gear Mechanism 1. INTRODUCTION A bicycle, often called a bike or cycle, is a human-powered, pedal-driven and single-track vehicle having two wheels attached to a frame, one behind the other. A bicycle rider is called a cyclist or bicyclist. Bicycles were introduced in the 19th century in Europe and as of 2003, more than 1 billion have been produced worldwide twice as many as the number of automobiles that have been produced. They are the principal means of transportation in many regions.

  • 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.
