Mechanical Department, MeenakshiSundararajan Engineering College No:363, Arcot Road, Kodambakkam, Chennai-24 tamilw1993@gmail.com Abstract: A two-wheeled vehicle such as a bicycle is most efficient and eco friendly. Now a days the bicycles are not used because of advanced vehicles. So this paper based on using hydraulic circuit in bicycle. By making this maximum power can get through this process. We can save also the fuels which is available in the earth. It gives the engineers an idea of how the overall system will behave in different configurations.
Introduction: The design project, time restraints forced the Chainless Challenge team to design and build their competition bicycles without acquiring a good understanding of the dynamic nature of the system. It usually includes the quality, cost, and performance of the existing technologies. It is desired that a human powered vehicle be designed that does not utilize a direct chain and sprocket system. Replacing this power train with a hydraulic one presents various problems.
These include reduced efficiency, pedal and pump rotational speed discrepancies, and increased overall weight. In order to offset the drawbacks of efficiency loss, the team added value to the design by creatively using hydraulic components in various configurations.
Requirement For Hydraulic Cycle
Hydraulic Pump
Hydraulic Gear Motor Hydraulic Fluid
Hydraulic Hose
Tank Frame Seat Wheels Tires Tire Tubes Disc Brakes Smooth Elbow Hydraulic Fittings Flow Control Valve Check Valve Accumulator Function Of The Parts
Accumulator The accumulator is the sole energy storage device in the system and is the main advantage of the hydraulic power train. Accumulators come in a variety of sizes and energy storage capacities. The energy storage is determined by the
