How the Design and Fabrication of Bike Scooter Wheel Dolly Jack works

  1. The mild steel frame and fabrication forms the base that carries every other part, so it is designed first from the load and size of the machine.
  2. The Hydraulic jack / cylinder gives large force from a small input using fluid pressure.
  3. The Wheels / castor wheels allow the machine or vehicle to move.
  4. The Mini submersible water pump moves water for irrigation, dispensing or cooling.

Mechanical viva questions on this project

What is the aim of the Design and Fabrication of Bike Scooter Wheel Dolly Jack project?

A wheel dolly jack for moving bikes and scooters that cannot be ridden. The jack lifts the wheel onto a castor platform, so the vehicle can be rolled and turned easily in garages and service centres.

Explain the working of your project in short.

The mild steel frame and fabrication forms the base that carries every other part, so it is designed first from the load and size of the machine. The Hydraulic jack / cylinder gives large force from a small input using fluid pressure. The Wheels / castor wheels allow the machine or vehicle to move. The Mini submersible water pump moves water for irrigation, dispensing or cooling.

How is the pump switched by the controller?

Through a relay or MOSFET, because the pump runs at 12 V and draws more current than the controller pin can provide.

How is the wheel size selected?

From the required speed and torque: linear speed = π × D × rpm ÷ 60. A larger wheel gives more speed but needs more torque.

Why is mild steel used for the frame?

It is cheap, strong, easy to cut and weld and widely available. A frame of 25 mm square pipe is enough for most student models.

What is Pascal's law?

Pressure applied to a confined fluid is transmitted equally in all directions. A small force on a small piston creates a large force on a larger piston.

Which material did you select for the main parts and why?

Mild steel (MS) is used for the frame because it is strong, cheap, easy to cut and weld and available everywhere. Shafts are made of EN8 or bright mild steel for strength, and parts that do not carry load can be aluminium or acrylic to reduce weight.

What factor of safety did you take in your design?

A factor of safety of 2 to 3 is taken for static parts and 3 to 5 for parts under shock or fatigue loading. Allowable stress = yield strength ÷ factor of safety, and each part is checked against it.

How did you estimate the cost of the project?

The cost is the sum of raw material, bought-out parts, machining or fabrication and overheads. Our estimate for this model is about ₹35,500 to ₹52,200, depending on size, material and the workshop rates in your city.

Which manufacturing processes were used?

Cutting and grinding of sections, arc or MIG welding of the frame, drilling for mounting holes, followed by assembly, alignment and painting.
