Chain Drive Steering Mechanism for a Four Wheeler

Abstract: Steering is one of the essential requirements of an automobile. This mechanism should be capable of giving correct steering. Incorrect steering mechanism may cause skidding of the tires on the road, leading to excess wear, noise and reduction in life of tires. In this paper an effort is made to develop a steering mechanism using chain drive which may substitute the Ackermann mechanism. This mechanism is entirely mechanical, simple, trust worthy and gives better steering. Keywords: Steering Mechanism, Correct Steering, Chain Drive, Bell crank lever.
