Objective

To design and fabricate a single seater compact electric

towing truck which can be used for localised movements of

goods.

INTRODUCTION

The designed and fabricated an electric two

vehicle for in house movements of goods. The

vehicle has industrial importance. It is directed

towards medium and small scale industries, e.g.duplex and craft industry, hospitals and airports

to carry loads/goods up to the range of hundred

kilograms on a gradient of twenty percent.

Methodology

PHASE 1:

Main focus on :

Motor

Controller Batteries

Further a thorough study on available and types of motor interms of applicability, advantages and disadvantages keeping inmind the vehicle.

Simultaneously, a study on the compatible control system wouldbe carried out which involves speed control, battery meter,speedometer , LED display etc .

Methodology

PHASE 2:

This phase would start with the final review of design.

The fabrication of the vehicle would then commence basedon the final design.

The vehicle would be taken for testing in campus with orwithout load, so as to verify its applicability.

ADVANTAGE

Fast and simple charging even after prolonged

storage.

High number of charge/discharge cycles;

provides over 1,000 charge/discharge cycles with

proper maintenance.

Good load performance; rugged and forgiving if

abused.

Long shelf life; can be stored in a discharged

state.

DISADVANTAGE

Requires protection circuit to limit voltage and

current

Limited service life.

Chassis Design

A frame is the main structure of the chassis of a motorvehicle. All other components fasten to it; a term for thisdesign is body-on-frameconstruction. The basic functionof the frame is:

i. To support the chassis components and the body.

ii. To withstand static and dynamic loads without unduedeflection or distortion.

CONCLUSION

The converted vehicle is in its optimization stages.Our design of experiment consists of accelerationand top speed tests with varying number of batteries.

. The range test will also be conducted varying thenumber of batteries and different noises such as airconditioning and lights
