DESIGN OF A LIGHTWEIGHT CHASSIS FOR E-RIKSHAW AN IMPLEMENTATION PAPER
Keywords:
Chassis, E-rickshaw, CRCA steel, C-channelled ChassisAbstract
The electric vehicles such as E-rickshaw demand light weight body structure without compromising the quality of material. This project work is an effort to fulfil the requirement of electric automotive vehicles. CRCA (cold rolled close annealed) steel material is used in this redesigning procedure of chassis due to its lightweight quality and engineering properties. A slight modification in the section structure is also considered in this redesigning work. A C-channelled converted section is used instead of rectangular section as chassis structure manufacturing due to its easy installation and maintenance feature.
