Design and Development of an Innovative Hubless Wheel

Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Mechanical and Civil Engineering (IOSR-JMCE) - Year 2018, Vol 15, Issue 3

Abstract

the aim of this project is to design and build an innovative hubless wheel. The hubless wheel will be self driven by a prime mover like a DC motor. The wheel will have three planetary rollers which will be powered by two DC motors. One roller is on the shaft directly coupled to the two motors and the other two rollers are on two separate shafts connected via belt drives. The driving and driven pulleys have same diameters. The belt is a positive timing belt so that there is no loss of power between motor shaft and the two roller shafts. The motor thus drives all the three rollers and the rollers drive the outer main wheel. The speed, torque while running and discharge time of the battery were first calculated theoretically and then compared with those calculated experimentally.
