ABSTRACT
The modern world today faces a huge crisis in fuel energy consumption and its conservation.
With ever increasing need for fuel and dependency of transportation systems on it, scientists
predict that by 2040, the world’s fuel reserves would be reduced to 20% of their current status and
prices for fuel are expected to reach 200$/ barrel. The situation is indeed very grim.
Hence, the need of the hour is to switch over to a new form of transport that reduces the
current strain on the natural resources and aims at ushering in an era of sustainable development
because
There is increasing concern over congestion and pollution associated with the use of motor
vehicle for personal transport. This project aims to design a vehicle that could be viable alternative to
cars for short distance journeys. The designed vehicle is an Ultra-Light Vehicle. It is powered by a
hybrid human-electric drive system. The vehicle design adopts off-the-shelf bicycle and electric
vehicle technology which work together to create a lightweight vehicle. A concept frame was devised
for investigation for the project. It incorporates straight-ahead position that has theoretical safety
benefits, while at the same time remaining simple in its design. The frame design consists of just two
members which make manufacturing easy. A preliminary study into this frame's structural integrity
has been completed. The vehicle can seat two adults, each of whom could power it via foot pedalling.
A mechanical drive system – which on its own could power the vehicle – has also been designed, as
has an electrical drive system that can be retrofitted at the rear side.
We, Team Coureurs Passione’s have attempted to design a trike which caters to all the
demands, is ergonomically safe to drive, eco-friendly
The design process was done based on several engineering and reverse engineering methods.
Following are the major points taken into consideration during the design phase of the vehicle
Among the fabrication processes which are involved in this project are drilling, turning, bending and
welding.

CHAPTER-1
INTRODUCTION
• To manufacture an ecofriendly-efficient vehicle which uses human and electric power for its
locomotion.
• Every part used is opted such that it is highly effective among its alternatives considering their
financial constraints.
• It has to be made with least possible weight and factors are set so that they meet the
requirements.
• Automobiles have always played a major role in the part and parcel of human life. The initial
major development made in the yester days was by the innovation of the cycle. The term
tricycle stands for a hybrid or an efficient cycle. The efficiency of this cycle is achieved by
reducing the human effort involved in the localization of the vehicle. The team had a sole aim
of designing an efficient vehicle and manufacturing it in an economical way. This reflects in
the combined efforts of the team members who have worked hard in order to design the
vehicle which is in accordance with the rule book. The engineering process has been
documented in the following report. The report also includes problemDefinition, design report
and design development. The overall objective of manufacturing our vehicle is to increase the
vehicle performance, ergonomics, quality and overall efficiency. The design process was done
based on several engineering and reverse engineering methods. Following are the major points
taken into consideration during the design phase of the vehicle.
Common Problems Faced in Current Motorized Tricycle
The common problems faced by consumers by using current motorized orbattery powered
tricycles can be divided into:
Cost
Manufacturing of battery powered tricycle normally expensive and requiredLot of money.
This is because the components that used for produce a tricycleNormally are very expensive. The
components consist of electric cells, battery charger, electric motor (DC or AC), motor controller
and power transmission System. If the performance is high, of course the cost will double up.
1|Page
Weight
The mass of an electrical vehicle has critical effects on the performance, Range, and cost of
an electrical vehicle. If the tricycle is too heavy, the electric motor Will require more power to
move. So it is important to design a light, strong and rigid tricycle framework which can reduce the
total weight of the tricycle. Besides That it is also important to choose a better electric motor mass
and proper battery mass that can reduce the weight of tricycle, increase transmission efficiency and
Double the vehicle range.
Vibration
Most tricycles have vibration problem due to inherent unbalance design. The unbalance may
be due to faulty design or poor manufacture. Naturally, a frame of tricycle designed to support
heavy loads like motor and battery, are also subjected to vibration. In this entire situation, the
structure or components subjected to vibration can fail because of material fatigue resulting from the
cyclic variation of the induced Stress. Furthermore, the vibration causes more rapid wear of tricycle
parts such as bearings and gears also creates excessive noise. It also causes fasteners such as nuts
and bolts to become loose. Due to vibration, it‟s also causes some electrical parts fail to work
Stability
As well as being rigid and crash-resistant, it is clearly important that aTricycle design should
also be stable. For maximum stability, wheels should belocated at the vehicle extremities and the
center of gravity should be kept as low asPossible. This is one area where the weight of the batteries
can be beneficial, as theyCan be laid along the bottom of the vehicle, making it extremely stable.

SELECTION & DESIGN OF SUB-SYSTEMS
2.1 DRIVETRAIN - HUMAN
For transmission we used an intermediate axle to transmit the power from the driver to the rear
wheel. Four sprockets are mounted on the axle. Two manual drive sprockets are connected to two of
the sprockets on the axle. The power is transmitted from the axle to the rear wheel with the help of a
sprocket mounted on the rear wheel connected to a sprocket on the axle .
ASSUMPTIONS
Maximum force applied on the pedal by the driver is 75lbs Maximum weight of each driver is
assumed to be 60kgs
The effect of aerodynamic force is neglected
ANALYSIS:
Analysis for shaft is done by taking two ends of the shaft as fixed supports and torsional loads
applied on the shaft and the amount of torsional load is 320416N mm
Analysis for sprocket is done by taking the bore in the sprocket as fixed support and a load
of 973.88 N is applied on the sprocket teeth.
The analysis is done by taking meshing element as hexagonal tetrahedron of size 2 mm. The
impact condition is taken by considering the impact time as 0.1 sec.
Calculations
Crank length = 18 cm
6|Page
Total torque produced at the pedal (T) = 333.3*0.18 + 75*0.4535*9.81*0.07(considering couple at
pedal) = 60.2378 N-m ~ 60 N-m
Reduction in the chain drive from the pedal to intermediate axle = 2 Gear ratio = 2:1
Torque at the 24 teeth sprocket =30N-m
As there are two drivers,
Torque at the rear wheel=30*2=60N-m
Acceleration of the vehicle=0.47m/s
Manually a torque of 60 N-m is produced at the axle and the remaining amount of torque is to be
given by the motor, but the torque of the motor is only 3N-m and so the gear box is used to give
a torque of 80N-m, this torque is supplied to axle by a means of a 2-stage epicyclic gear box.
m=
Zp = = 42 teeth
Since the module is small the gear size will be small and it will not fit the shaft of the motor and so
increasing the module from 1.1747 to 1.25.

Total gear ratio = 2.33×1.71 = 4
MAXIUM SPEED
We take,
v=
v=
v = 8.88 m/s
Hence,
Electrical power is an alternative source of power to run the vehicle. The power required to move
the vehicle is produced by a brushless DC motor which converts electrical energy to mechanical
energy which is required to drive the vehicle.
The electric power to run the motor is drawn from a Li- ion battery. Li-ion battery is being
used as it has the advantage of higher power to volume ratio. It helps in reducing the weight of the
vehicle in opposition to a lead acid battery.
A controlling device called controller or an ECS is placed in between the battery and the
motor. It is used to control the performance of the motor. A device called throttle which controls the
speed is connected to the motor controller.
Assumptions
(Velocity ratio is constant.)

E-bike throttle- 1 number
Kill switch-2 numbers
Our vehicle has to run uninterruptedly for 2 hours with good speed to perform well in all rounds in
the dynamic events.
Taking this reason into consideration, we preferred maximum power of motor according to the
rulebook.
After benchmarking, a motor with 3N-m torque and a speed of 1500 rpm has been selected
collaboration with transmission department.
The capacity of the battery must be good enough to run the motor for 2 hours straight.
Q= I*T=12.5*2= 25Ah
Here, Q=capacity.
Considering the minimum efficiency of the battery to be 60% in the worst case , the battery
Capacity must be 35Ah.
Charge time for the battery with original charger (40 A) Q =
I*T 35 = 4*T
T = 8.75 hours.
It takes 9 hours approximately to completely charge the battery.

2.2 DRIVE TRAIN - HYBRID
In a hybrid vehicle, the human effort is reduced by using electric drive. Therefore, the combined
output of the vehicle will be more when compared to the output produced by using either one of
the drive.
Total torque produced in manual drive=59.4Nm∼60Nm.
The required torque is only 85 Nm but we achieve 100 Nm as it satisfies the minimum condition
The maximum velocity of the vehicle when both human and electric drives are used = 35kmph

2.3. STEERING
Steering systems are used to change the direction of the vehicle and to turn the vehicle without
loss of traction.
We are using twin lever steering mechanism, depending on the vehicle design and convenience
we chose 4 bar linkage mechanism which works on Ackermann's geometry.
Design methodology
Track width and wheel base selection, turning radius, Ackermann condition, turning angles,
wheel geometry, and selection of linkage, design error calculation, design and CAE of steering
parts fabrication.
We have adopted this system because it mimics the bi- articular muscles and helps in reducing
steering effort of the vehicles. The steering can be accomplished quickly and the burden on the
driver is decreased.

2.4. SUSPENSION
For any vehicle suspension system is opted for the following reasons:
Stability
Vehicle Handling
Smooth Ride
The Stability of our vehicle is achieved by opting for Ackermann Golden Ratio which
states that the ratio of Track Width to Wheel Base is 1.30
The distance between the C.O.G and Roll Center is 2 inches which produces very less
moment arm.
The Ride rate by a bump or a drop is distributed to the truss formed by the chassis.
As the above three criteria are achieved, It eliminates the need for suspension system
there by further reducing the weight of the vehicle.
Wheels and tires have been selected taking into consideration the following parameters:
Tread type
Durability of tire
Weight of tire
Taking a greater number of spokes on front tire in order to take the load
The diameter of the rear wheel is chosen to achieve the required torque.

2.9 BRAKING SYSTEM
This report comprises of selection of braking system and calculation of braking torque depending
on stopping distance.
The main aim of braking system is to decelerate or to stop the vehicle in minimum stopping
distance.
Objectives
The goals of braking system are to dynamically balance the vehicle when brakes applied -
Braking power should be more than power supplied to the wheels.
Design methodology
Design considerations →Centre of gravity→Stopping Distance selection
Braking force requiredCalculations→benchmarking →selection of components→assembly
Design approach
There are two types‟ brakes that are suitable to our vehicle
1. Disc brakes
2. Rim or shoe brakes
Depending on the following criteria we have opted disc brakes To improve the braking
efficiency

Fb=11218.85/ (0.065*θ) = 229*(9.72) /2*4 Θ=63.85deg
Sub in eq1
We get braking force required (Fb) =2703.17N (required)
(Fb) f=1973.3N, (Fb) r=702.78N
From the components we have chosen. Braking force generated would be calculated.
Coefficient of friction between pads and disc=0.4 Pedal efforts are On right lever=105lbs on left
lever=96 lbs.
For front wheels:
Clamping force= (pedal effort*pedal force*0.45*9.81) =2472.12N
Braking force (Fb) =2472.12*2*µ=2472.12*0.8=1977.696N
For rear wheels:
18 | P a g e
Clamping force= (pedal effort*pedal ratio*0.45*9.81)=2260.24N
Braking force (Fb) =1808.1792N.
The stopping distance are calculated by taking the ground friction only into
consideration. Stopping distance (s): s=u2/2µg
Where u= velocity of vehicle Overall stopping distance (s2) =s+ (t*u) where t=0.138sec
Speed 15 20 25 30
(kmph)
We will get
Rf =142.44 kg
Rr = 67.56kg
Total weight of vehicle=210kg
From the above equation the center of gravity along longitudinal axis is 482.66mm
19 | P a g e
Along lateral axis
Since the vehicle is not symmetric, the center of gravity can be calculated by applying the
moment equation about p by applying the moment equation about P The reaction forces would.
Depending on the following conditions the center of gravity along lateral axis is 625.31mm
From Rf1. Similarly the center of gravity along the vertical axis is 266.7mm
Load transfer:

Then we will get the weight acting on the rear wheels during deceleration.
Deceleration=v/t
µ*g=v/t t=1.41sec
Deceleration=v/t
The load transfers to the front wheels due to the deceleration of the vehicle.
At maximum speed when brakes are applied then the weight on the front wheels will be 21.34kg
