Automated Manual Transmission For Two Wheeler

Amidst the fast development road transport infrastructure in nation, the two wheeler population is increasing day by day where the supplies for profitable and economical two wheelers are acquiring high. For the need of better torque and fuel efficiency, gearbox is furnished in the two wheelers. Though the manual gearbox has lot of merits, it also has demerits on complexness of changing the gears with detail to driving necessitate. To avoid the complexness in driving, the continuous varying Transmission are provided in two wheelers, but due to the slip taking place in the belt, the overall efficiency has been decreased. So, in order to reduce complexity of impulsiveness and at the same time providing the better fuel economy, the manual transmission can be machine-driven through electrical aid with the help of electronics. The automation of the existent manual transmission can be made by actuating the clutch, gear shifter lever by acquiring the information from the wheel speed sensor, load sensor, throttle position sensor. The gear shifter and clutch are motivated with the help of stepper motor in a bid to supply better preciseness. Potentiometer is used to alert the throttle position and a load cell is used to sense the load of the driver and pillion. The control system (ARDUINO UNO) acts as a bridge between the sensor and actuator.
