Beschreibung
Mobility of physically disabled persons is a concerning social issue nowadays. Various hand driven tricycles, wheelchairs, retrofitted vehicles etc. are commonly available for disabled people as a mode of transportation. The basic Tricycle is a three-wheeled design, pedalled by disabled persons in the side and seat in the middle for sitting arrangement. They use only one hand to steer the handle because other hand is used to rotate the pedal.A Tricycle which use of frontward and backward movement of handlebar of the tricycle to provide a force for driving or rotating the rear wheel of a tricycle. A lever which acts as a connecting rod extended from handlebar to the rear wheel to transmit the foreand movement of the handlebar to drive the rear wheel of the tricycle. Due to this linkage mechanism the fore and motion converted into rotary motion. The transfer of motion doesnt affect the conventional steering. In normal handicapped cycle the chain mechanism is used for accelerating purpose. But we doesnt use that mechanism, we accelerate the Tricycle by use of steering rod with help of lever (connecting road) and pedal. Pedal is mounted on the rear axle.
