ANALYSIS

The stationary bike generator system will be working by generating electricity by exercising on a stationary bike by the minimum amount of effort. After that, the stationary bike will be capable of charging multiple electric devices at the same time to generate the electricity. In order to generate electricity, an electric motor will be used and a battery with converter to AC. 

​

​

The engineering analyses that were required for the design of this trailer were extensive. They included static loading analysis, momentum, as well as different material based analyses, such as material selection.

​

Requirements:

 

These are some of the requirements need to be considered in this project:

 

  • Must be able to hold the electric motor stable while operating (No deflection more than 0.1 in x, y, or z directions).

  • Must be installed without changing the structure of the bike.

  • Must not vibrate while operating (No more than 0.1 cm).

  • Must hold the electrical panel.

  • The battery must not deflect more than 0.1” under any operation.
