Paper Details

his paper deals with the overall design procedure for manufacturing & prototyping of two speed gear box for GoKart vehicles. The mechanism that transmits the power developed by the engine of automobile to the engine to the drivingwheels is called the TRANSMISSION SYSTEM (or POWER TRAIN). Torque is not directly changed but it can be transferredin the form of power using suitable device. It is a very useful method that we adopt, and it is also easily affordable. Manyother alternative, even though more elegant and appear to be more effective are not feasible when it comes to transmissionthis project mainly focuses on the design and prototyping of gear box that can transmit torque to the maximum and also helpsto do some useful work in automobile where power transmission is a major factor. The transmission of power is done in twospeed in this project the setup uses two shafts and four sprocket arranged in suitable distance to achieve the desired torqueand speed.This paper describes in detail the parameters included in the entire design and considerations made for zeroingthose parameters. Validation of the design is done by conducting theoretical calculations, simulations and known facts.Analyses are conducted on all major components to optimize strength and rigidity, improve vehicle performance, and toreduce complexity and manufacturing cost.
