Diseño de brazo basculante para motocicleta eléctrica con motor en la rueda posterior

Abstract

The following work details a study carried out to design and build a swinging arm for an electric motorcycle with a motor on the rear wheel. The study uses as reference an electric motorcycle marketed in the country that has an electric motor with similar characteristics to the electric motor available for the project. First, a 3D design of a swinging arm of the electric motorcycle of reference was made in Autodesk Inventor, then with the drawings an analysis of the forces that will act on the structure was executed, and after that, with the results of the calculations a material that satisfies the qualities necessary to resist the forces that the piece will suffer was selected. Finally, with these calculations, tests and selected material, the prototype was validated through a static simulation also performed in Autodesk Inventor. Once the design phase is finished, and since the study gave positive results, concluding that the swing arm can be designed and built, the diagrams of each part were made for its manufacture, and also every construction processes of each part of the swing arm was specified, as well as all the machines and tools necessary for every processes.
