    DEVELOPMENT OF PLUG-IN AIR POWERED FOUR WHEELS MOTORCYCLE DRIVETRAIN CONTROL UNIT TAN BENG LENG Report submitted in partial fulfillment of requirements for award of the Degree of Bachelor of Mechanical Engineering with Automotive Engineering Faculty of Mechanical Engineering UNIVERSITI MALAYSIA PAHANG JUNE 2013 v ABSTRACT This thesis is related to the development of plug-in air powered four wheel motorcycles drive train system that transfers rotational energy from power train to the driving wheel. The objective of this thesis is to develop an air hybrid drivetrain unit and control the power and torque from the powertrain to the driving wheel by using sequential manual transmission. This thesis describes the process of developing sequential shift-by-wire system to make gear shifting for easier for 4 wheel motorcycle. The controller used in this project was 18F PIC 4550 microprocessor. The system programming performed using FLOWCODE version 4.0. 2 units of electromechanical linear actuator were used in this project as an actuator for gear shifting on a manual transmission. Chain drives were selected as power transfer linkage from air hybrid engine to the driving wheel with under drive configuration. Besides the development of shift-by-wire system, the torque on the driving wheel also had been calculated and analysed. In additional, the maximum speed that can be achieved by four wheel motorcycles was also calculated. vi ABSTRAK Tesis ni berkaitan dengan pembangunan sistem pacuan yang memindahkan tenaga putaran ke roda pacuan untuk “plug-in hybrid air powered” motosikal empat roda.

  • New Automatic Hybrid Transmissions for Motorcycles
    Proc. Natl. Sci. Counc. ROC(A) Vol. 23, No. 6, 1999. pp. 716-727 New Automatic Hybrid Transmissions for Motorcycles KUEN-BAO SHEU*, SHEN-TARNG CHIOU**, WEN-MING HWANG**, TING-SHAN WANG**, AND HONG-SEN YAN**,† *Department of Vehicle Engineering National Huwei Institute of Technology Yuenlin, Taiwan, R.O.C. **Department of Mechanical Engineering National Cheng Kung University Tainan, Taiwan, R.O.C. (Received August 19, 1998; Accepted May 19, 1999) ABSTRACT This paper presents a systematic approach to designing new automatic transmission systems for motorcycles, including conceptual design, kinematic design, efficiency analysis, engine and transmission matching, and prototype developing and testing. The basic concept is to combine a stepped design and a stepless one into a hybrid transmission system. Four hybrid transmission systems, consisting of a two degrees of freedom planetary gear train and a rubber V-belt drive unit, are synthesized. Two operating regimes over the full speed ratio range are obtained by means of engaged clutches. Kinematic design of the hybrid transmission systems is employed to obtain the major dimensions. Based on the power flow and efficiency analysis, formulas for the mechanical efficiency of the transmission systems are derived. The transmission theory of the V-belt drive unit is studied. The design procedure for matching the power source and transmission is presented. A testing rig was designed and constructed. A prototype of this new hybrid transmission system was developed to measure the transmission efficiency and test the operat- ing characteristics. The results show that the proposed design is theoretically correct and practically feasible. Key Words: motorcycle, hybrid transmissions, conceptual design, kinematic design, mechanical efficiency I.

  • 1 18-Gtrbr-05 Motorcycle Brake Systems
    18-GTRBR-05 MOTORCYCLE BRAKE SYSTEMS gtr - TECHNICAL REPORT - 1. Introduction During the 58th session of the Working Party on Brakes and Running Gear (GRRF), a formal proposal for a global technical regulation (gtr) concerning Motorcycle Brake Systems was presented, along with the accompanying “Statement of Technical Rationale and Justification”. This Technical Report serves to provide additional detail regarding the technical rationale for the respective requirements within the proposed gtr. 2. General The proposed gtr on Motorcycle Brake Systems consists of a compilation of the most stringent and relevant tests procedures and performance requirements from current standards and regulations. The informal group reviewed the existing requirements on various levels, including estimating the relative severity of the requirements as well as considering the original rationales and appropriateness of the tests to modern conditions and technologies. As a result of the comparison process, the selected performance requirements within the gtr are mainly developed from the UN/ECE Regulation No. 78 (ECE), the United States Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard FMVSS 122 (FMVSS) and the Japanese Safety Standard JSS 12-61 (JSS). The selected format for the gtr text is based on the Alternative format for regulations with many different requirements and test procedures, as described in TRANS/WP.29/883, and was chosen to facilitate quick reference and understanding of the requirements. While developing the gtr, the informal group endeavoured to clarify discrepancies in the referenced tests, to assure a better understanding and the consistency in the way the respective tests are conducted. The gtr is comprised of several fundamental tests, each with their respective performance requirements.

Abstract: Motorcycles, generally seen around the choices for many automotive companies.

But there are few other types of with the highest efficiency. (Mechanical efficiency transmission drive like Belt Drive and Shaft Drive can simply be defined as the ratio of the work input to do the same work. All three of them (Chain, Belt to the work output, of a system.) and Shaft Drive) have their own advantages and disadvantages over different parameters like If we want to attain maximum efficiency, all mechanical efficiency, power transmission, components must have minimum losses and final durability, maintenance, usage, and cost.
