Abstract:- The Reverse Electric Trike with front
independent suspension. The bike runs by means of a
brushless electric motor which is powered 12v battery.
The front side is equipped with two tyres and
independent suspension systems. The power from the
battery is transmitted through chain drive to the rear
wheel. The trike uses mechanical disk brakes.
Keywords:- Tadpole Design, Delta Design.

motor which is powered 12v battery. The front side is B. Analysis
equipped with two tyres and independent suspension The designed model is now converted into IGES
systems. The power from the battery is transmitted format to analyze it. The analysis is done only for the load
through chain drive to the rear wheel. The trike uses carrying capacity and to determine the stresses, strains and
mechanical disk brakes. deformation induced. During analysis, the materials are
assigned to each component based on the requirement.
II. METHODOLOGY Analysis is done for different loads to determine the
failure. The results of analysis have been presented below.
Designing is done by using Solid works
Analysis is by using Ansys 15.0
Runs on a electric motor which is powered by battery
Front independent suspension system on each wheel
The working model of the reverse electric trike is
been fabricated according to the design
III. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
The design parameters and the analysis parameters
have been considered as per the required before starting Fig 2:- Frame Analysis
with each one of these. The results thus obtained are
discussed below in brief
A. Design
Solid works software is used to design. Individual
parts have been designed are assembled at the end. The
final assembly of design is shown below

D. Recommendations:
1. The suspension design and stiffness can be changed
according to usage
2. The members used to weld can be changed to
different materials and alloy steels
3. The motor and batteries capacities can be changed
greater power and efficiencies from the vehicle.
IV. CONCLUSIONS

Electric bicycles are also good for the environment
because they have a lower carbon footprint compared
to conventional vehicles.
Riding an electric tricycle is considered a mild
exercise. The NHS recommends that you simply ride
the bicycle for two hours and half-hour hebdomadally
in order that riding to figure daily could assist you
accomplish this. According to research, those that
ride a bicycle to figure experience a 39% lower rate
of mortality
B. Disadvantages:
High center of gravity.
V. ACKNOWLEDGMENT
Fig 5:- Final assembled reverse electric trike We take this chance to recollect and acknowledge
the cooperation, good will and support both moral and
technical extended by several individuals out of which our
project has evolved. We shall always cherish our
association with them.
