Abstract: Automobile vehicles play important role
especially two-wheelers i.e. (motorcycles& bikes) play
a major role for commutation. Even though they are
helpful, there are some sad events like accidents due to
carelessness of rider, majority due to forgetting of
lifting side stand. To rectify this problem many
preventive measures have taken, but they consume
extra power and also less in life. so as to eliminate this
demerit and get effectiveness a new idea is taken as a
project and it deals in this. This system is more
effective and no separate power or effort consumption
and easily be implemented practically in all types
bikes. The new system“AUTOMATIC SIDE-
STAND RETRIEVE SYSTEM” is designed based
on the working principle of bikes. Since all bike
transmit power from engine to rear wheel by means of
chain drive. Since designed setup is kept in between
chain drive, setup rotates and side stand get retrieves
automatically.
1. Introduction
Motorcycles are generally provided with stand for
supporting the motorcycles when they are not in use.
The stand usually comprises a bar or rod which is
pivotally attached to the lower portion of the
motorcycle frame and is movable to a literally,
downward extending position so that the motorcycle
can be tilted against and rest upon the bar. When the
motorcycle is in use, the bar is swung upwardly and
along the frame so that it will not interfere with the
running of the motorcycle. Often the cyclist neglects to
move the standard to its raised position and when a
GENERAL IDEA:A small flat rod is attached and
pivoted between the gear actuator lever and the side
stand of the bike. When the gear is actuated the side
stand gets lifted. Small stepper motor is connected
between the side stand and the engine, when the engine
is started the stepper motor runs and retrieves the sides
stand automatically[5-9] CONSTRUCTION: The
whole construction of this system is simple and
efficient. The arrangement and position of components
makes the system to function. Each and every
component has its own property and responsibility. The
power obtained from the chain drive is transmitted to
the appropriate component without power loss. The
systematic design of system is made in order to
consume only very low amount of power initially for
few seconds to retrieve the stand. Then the power
consumption does not occurs after retrieving the stand.
Construction of the proposed “Automatic side stand
retrieve system” consists of four major components.
They areAxle, Sprocket pinion, Lifting lever, Pushing
lever.

provides support for bearings on which the wheel
rotates.
bike turn will make the stand strikes the ground and[1-
4] causes the motorcycle to be thrown to the ground,
generally with serious consequences to both the cyclist
and the motorcycle.[1-4]
3. Sprocket Pinion
Sprocket is the major component of this system
because it is power transmitting device. It gets power
from the chain drive and makes this system to work. It
is the device which transmits the linear motion of
meshing chain drive into rotary motion by means of the
tooth found on it. The sprocket with ball bearings is
said to be FREE WHEEL. Since it is a free wheel it
allows the toothed part to rotate free from central
portion in a direction. Hence this type of sprocket is
used as the rear power transmission device in by cycle

that makes the wheel to rotate and also allows toothed
area to rotate in anticlockwise when pedaled
anticlockwise direction. This action of sprocket allows
attached lifting lever to adjust freely automatically or
manually when it does not engages with pushing lever
properly. Since the sprocket
rocket transmit the power from
chain drive, it should have the capability[13] to
withstand the heavy loads of engine. So to withstand
those impacts on toothed area, it is made of high carbon
steel. The ball bearings are made up of high chromium
steel. Hencece all these material gives following
properties for sprocket.[10-15]

Lifting Lever
Lifting lever is the third major component of the system
.the lifting lever is the rectangular rod made of MS
MS-rod,
which consists of two lifting leaves which is mounted
with the edge of axle.[17] The lifting leaves should be
parallel to the sprocket pinion. The lifting lever is
composed of two metal rods, where both are welded at
either sides of the axle. The free ends of the lifting
leaves is tapered well. The ends are machined well for
tapered shape for smooth engaging with pushing lever.

stand. This tapered surface
makes the lifting lever as capable to withstand engine
impact. When stand is moved vertical in position, the
pushing lever engages with lifting leaves. This may not

be any degree. So due to effect of free wheel and
tapered surface of the lifting lever can adjust itself.[16]
4. Push
pivoted centrally to the side stand. The pushing lever is
metallic rectangular plate, whose bottom end is bended
in shape of C and top end is welded with a small piece
of rectangular rod. This small piece of rod is used for
getting lifted by the lifting lever. Since this rod engages
(or) lays over tapered edge of lifting lever, thus the
retrieving
trieving occur smoothly.The pushing lever is made of
MS-flat
flat rod with the length according to the distance of
side stand arrangement. Its top end is made tapered so
as to engage with lifting lever. The bottom end of
the[18] lever is made as C-clamp,
clamp, which holds the side
stand These are four major components using in this
system and other small components like Nuts and bolts,
hooks etc. are used in this
POWER SOURCE OF INCITER ASSEMBLY:
Inciter assembly gets the power from the linear chain
motion i.e. (as engine transmit power to the rear wheel
through chain drive since the setup is When chain
rotates anti-clockwise

sprocket absorbs the power and rotates in clockwise

th chain so,when chain rotates in anti-clockwise
anti
direction the sprocket engaged rotates in clockwise
direction) as sprocket rotates the axle rotates as the
result lifting lever rotates in clockwise direction.[24]

engine’s pinion to the rear wheel i.e. rotary motion of
the pinion makes the linear motion of the chain. That
linear motion of the chain is absorbed by rear wheel’s
sprocket and converted into rotary motion. That rotary
motion of the rear wheel makes the bikes to move.
Based on this Sprocket side stand retrieve system is
designed.[27]
If Sprocket is kept between the chain drive, it make the
sprocket to rotate so, using the sprocket as the major
component this system works. It gains the power from
the chain and make specially designed component
(lifting lever) to rotate. This rotation incites engaged Figure 2.Riding condition
