Electric vehicles

Sounds interesting. Do you have any URL or something for your project here. Would love to collaborate!

Don't quite understand why would you have two wheels up front and one in the rear? Either it will be a complicated design to reduce the drag.

One rationale behind such a design would be better less turning radius which you could achieve by having coupling can disengage for two rear wheels or having two hub-wheel type motors and controlling the current via steering mechanisms.

Feel free to reach out I am always looking for some challenging assignments.

I thank you for helping me

I have not created a URL or anything for this project.

This idea arose spontaneously, seeing the development of the current three-wheeled vehicle mode that began to reappear. Except that in my country Indonesia tricycle vehicle which in paddle (named BECAK) still preserved as public transportation. There is the thought of some people to change the vehicle using electric drive technology.

Therefore I am interested in experimenting, researching and developing this type of vehicle with a tricycle.

About wheels selection I do not want to use a wide wheel that has a large frictional force. But will utilize the wheels of two-wheeled motorcycles in the market. So this vehicle is relatively not too big.

To realize this idea I want to start with a simple experimental step, which is to design the vehicle chassis, build, and try the ability of the driving motor. I will try a hub wheel drive of china product with 4KW capacity which I already have.

Unfortunately the regulations in my country limit to import Li-Ion or Li-Po battery with a large capacity, this is another obstacle to carrying out this experiment.

Of course I need criticism and suggestion from you. thank you Ninad Kulkarni.

Start designing chassis, unfinished ... any suggestions ..

Wheels are not that wide, just for modeling

I would also like to help you in this project .

First thing i can say about after watching the design is that the place where chasis is connecting to the front axil part is narrow which would cause torsion in the chassis.

But i can't be sure as i don't have the assembly file.

Hi Jitesh Kumar thank you for joining us. The design is incomplete, still in design and unfinished, and is currently a dead-end idea.

Mechanical parts of the front suspension are still confused, are thinking to decide how the mechanical system to be simple, easy to fabricate manually, but also light weight.

Any ideas or suggestions ...

Great ideas. I saw one tadpole design some time ago where the front wheels actually tilted into the turns as well as turned. It was simple and effective. Has anyone else seen that? Would that be of interest?

Thanks Zephyr ... Maybe you can help give a review like what is the detail of mechanical work?

I guess I lost it now. It has been a few years. But here are designs that are close.

Here's another one.

I'm trying to leverage an electric urban mobility startup here in Brazil. Check out the video I made of my iWent tricycle: https://youtu.be/FAW6kyRoYC8

For you who are more technical than I: what is the best urban tricycle configuration (low speeds) two wheels in the front or rear?

Hugs to everyone

Ok thanks Zephyr ...... the front wheel suspension structure like that makes the vehicle more stable and not easy to slip. But I am not sure if it is effective enough for a wide vehicle (front seat side by side), Will it be effective enough? But of course have to try applied to drawing design first .... thank Zephyr

Good electric vehicle design Mauricio Sampaio.... Yes in my opinion a three-wheeled vehicle like the one you got is better, because the static wheel's friction load is only one on the front, and the two rear wheels serve as an active driver. While the three-wheeled vehicle with active pushers only one behind, will bear the greater frictional load because of the friction that occurs to the two static wheels in front, of course this will rise when the vehicle turns. There may be opinions from other members ....

check my profile and my new model :)

Would be happy to help. I am very interested in the project. I am on my final year of mechanical engineering. i hope to learn from all my fellow teammates as i presume they are a lot senior than me, and i hope to give my best in contribution to the team.

Thankyou

I can see the advantages of two drive wheels as opposed to one, but in my opinion, two wheels in front would make the vehicle more stable in turns. So, like everything else, it will be a design compromise, whichever way you decide to go. I think either way would be fun to develop and we should learn a lot along the way.

Thank you Zephyr

Yes I like your model..

hello all

you can use the differential of e-rickshaw.

you can use the differential of e-rickshaw.

Thank you Jitesh Kumar Jee. Will not an e-rikshaw differential be heavy part and add weight? Mine is a single seater whereas e-rikshaw can carry 3 or more.

yes it might be but its the lightest in the market i guess which is easily available.

Or you can use the rickshaw mechanism in which only one rear wheel is powered.

Also, the width (length) of an e-rikshaw axle will be more than I need i.e. single seater. One rear wheel drive requires higher power than centrally driven and pushes the handle on on side. In that case, the driver has to keep on pooling the handle to go straight. Instead, if I apply the trick shown in this video, what is your suggestion? https://youtu.be/gYIBFke0RnI

This is my idea which is plan use for a trike and front wheel drive with alternator attach in differential but this design not yet completed.

I'M INTERESTED IN THIS PROJECT , WHAT IS THE UPDATE OF THE PROJECT

Hlw everyone i make a human hoist chair anyone can help me

Hey guys, what was the end of this project? Did you manage to make the tricycle? I see that the last posts are from 2018... it's been a while. Time does pass very quickly in this era in which we live. Hug to everyone.

I offer my idea of ​​a three-wheeled solar-powered car. Project from 3D constructor - https://dubina.biz
