INTRODUCTION
A wheelchair is a chair with wheels to help
people move around. It is used by
individuals who have impairments that
limit their ability to walk. It typically
consists of a seat supported on two large
wheels attached towards the back of the
seat and two small wheels (castors) in front
near the feet, a good braking system,
footrests and a cushion. There are often
small additional features to prevent
toppling or to assist in mounting curbs. The
user moves by pushing with his/her hands
circular bars on the outside of the large
wheels, known as the hand-rim or push
rings.

OBJECTIVE

• Our motive is to provide them independent mobility for that they need
a wheelchair which can be easily provided to them and it should be not
expensive and also it should be based on the clean resources of energy
for recharging. Our another motive is to make handicapped persons
productive for their own growth and also for nation it will enhance
feeling of self -esteem among the community. It will provide them
respect from others. And finally they can live a Normal life.

COMPONENTS OF SOLAR WHEEL-CHAIR
• SOLAR PANEL- refers to a panel designed to absorb the sun's rays 
as a source of energy for generating electricity or heating.
      A photovoltaic (in  short  PV)  module  is  a  packaged,  connected 
assembly  of  typically  6×10 solar  cells.  Solar  Photovoltaic  panels 
constitute  the  solar  array  of  a photovoltaic  system that  generates 
and  supplies solar  electricity in  commercial  and  residential 
applications.  Each  module  is  rated  by  its DC output  power  under 
standard  test  conditions,  and  typically  ranges  from  100  to  365 
watts.

• CHARGER- One of the problems with solar power is that the 
output  of  the  solar  panel  is  variable.  These  solar  charge 
controllers  are  designed  to  extract  the  maximum  amount  of 
power  available  from  the  solar  panels  and  deposit  it  in  the 
battery.  Solar  PV  charge  controllers  take  the  uncertain 
voltage  from  a  solar  panel  and  condition  it  to  safely  charge 
lead acid batteries. These solar PV charge controllers energy 
harvesting,  and  a  three-stage  charging  method,  bulk, 
absorption,  and  float  (maintenance)  charge,  but  due  to  the 
nature  of  solar  panels  these  are  different  in  nature  than  a 
typical  AC  driven  charger.  They  pulse  charge  the  battery. 
During the pulse the solar panel is virtually short-circuited to 
extract the maximum power from the panel and also to allow 
the  panel  to  work  more  efficiently.  These  solar  charge 
controllers also protect your panels from discharging through 
the  batteries  after  the  sun  goes  down.  Solar  charge 
controllers  are  necessary  to  protect  your  PV  battery 
investment.

• LEAD ACID BATTERY-Lead  acid  batteries  are  one  of  the  most  popular 
types of battery in electronics.   Although slightly lower in energy density 
than  lithium  metal,  lead  acid  is  safe,  provided  certain  precautions  are 
met when charging and discharging. This have a many advantages over 
other  conventional  types  of  batteries,  the  lead  acid  battery  is  the 
optimum choice for a solar assisted cycle. Current supplied from battery 
indicates  the  flow  of  energy  from  the  battery  and  is  measured  in 
amperes (or Amps) . The higher the current flow faster the battery will 
discharge. A battery is rated in ampere-hours (abbreviated Ah) and this 
is called the battery capacity. This project revolves around supplying and 
utilizing  energy  within  a  high  voltage  battery.  It  demands  for  a  battery 
with longer running hours, lighter weight with respect to its high output 
voltage and higher energy density.

• DC MOTOR- The Brushless DC (BLDC) motor is used as the drive motor 
for  the  vehicle.  It  is  a  permanent  magnet  square  wave  motor.  BLDC 
motor  uses  feedback  directly  of  the  rotor  angular  position  so  that  the 
input  armature  current  can  be  switched  among  the  motor  phases  in 
exact synchronization with the rotor motion.
• WHEELS- A bicycle wheel is  a wheel,  most  commonly  a wire  wheel, 
designed for a bicycle. : a steel hub, a fixed steel axle (the bearings were 
located in the fork ends), aluminium spokes and a shrink fitted iron rim 
A  typical  modern  wheel  has  a  metal  hub,  wire  tension  spokes  and  a 
metal or carbon fibre rim which holds a pneumatic rubber tire.

• CASTOR - castor is an un-driven, single, double, or compound wheel that 
is  designed  to  be  mounted  at  the  bottom  of  a  larger  object  (the 
"vehicle") to enable the object to be easily moved. They are available in 
various  sizes,  and  are  commonly  made  of  rubber,  plastic,  nylon, 
aluminium,  or  stainless  steel.  Casters  are  found  in  numerous 
applications,  including  shopping  carts,  office  chairs,  and  material 
handling equipment. High capacity, heavy duty casters are used in many 
industrial  applications,  such  as  platform  trucks,  carts,  assemblies,  and 
towlines  in  plants.  Generally,  casters  operate  well  on  smooth  and  flat 
surfaces.  The  diameter  of  the  caster  used  is  15cm  and  thickness  is  3.5 
cm.

METHODOLOGY

      The  methodology  or  working  of  solar  wheel  chair  can  be  understood 
easily by a flow chart. The working is nothing but simply the conversion 
of solar energy into mechanical energy followed by many intermediate 
conversions which are shown below-
• Sun –it provide solar energy that will fall on solar panel.
• Solar panel- it will absorb solar energy and convert it into electrical energy by p-n 
junction.
• Charge  controller  or  charger-  it  will  remove  the  variation  in  solar  energy  and 
store electrical energy in the form of chemical energy in the battery.
• Battery-  it  will  store  energy  in  chemical  form  and  again  convert  into  electrical 
form.
• Motor-it  will  convert  electrical  energy  into  mechanical  (rotational)  form  and 
make the wehicle run.
• Wheels –they will rotate with the axle which is driven by chain gear arrangement 
and cover distance.

BRAKING SYSTEM

• A Disc brake is a type of brake that uses calipers to squeeze pair of pads
against a disc in order to create friction that retards the rotation of
shaft, such as a vehicle axle, either to reduce its rotational speed or hold
it stationary.

ABES Engineering College, Ghaziabad(032) 24


WHY WE USED IT?

• Disc brakes can generate and transfer greater amount of heat to the
atmosphere; because most of the friction area of a rotor is exposed to
air, cooling is far more rapid than for a drum brake.
• The faster cooling makes them better suited for high performance
driving and reduces the likelihood of brake fade.
• Because of their shape, rotors tend to scrape off water more efficiently.
• Due to their design, disc brakes are self-adjusting and do not need
periodic maintenance.

SIGNIFICANCE

• According to WHO (World Health Organization) a wheelchair is


appropriate when it-
• Meets the user’s needs and environmental conditions;
• Provides proper fit and postural support;
• Is safe and durable;
• Is available in the country; and
• Can be obtained, maintained and services sustained in the country at an
affordable price.
Our project is fulfilling all the decided norms by the WHO being
environment friendly ,safe, less expensive and easily available.

CONCLUSION

• The vehicle which we are introducing by doing this project will be help
full for many of the people who are disabled mentally as well as
physically can make use of this vehicle without the requirement of
relying up on any external aid. So this is a multifunctional medicinal aid
focusing on the improvement and self-reliability of multiple disabled
people. Modifications made in the prevailing equipment meant for the
disabled ones will be of great use in upcoming time. And we were able
to apply our theoretical knowledge into practice. All data provided are
precise to the best of our ability .
