Abstract:

Design is an important stage in manufacturing. It is because any product produced must be through design stage, where design stage consists of conceptual design, concept selection; identify customer need, concept selection, analysis, and others. In design, many factors should be considered such as product design must be satisfied by customer, material used the ability product to work and others. The main idea in design is to fulfil the customer’s need. Besides that, design will have an effect to Company such as profit, loss, and reputation of the company. In this paper have modelled a diamond frame of bicycle by using CATIA v5 and performed finite element analysis on it by using ANSYS18. A conceptual design of bicycle is proposed for reducing the effort kept by cycler while he rides on an inclined plane. The project idea is implementation of four bar mechanism in bicycle.
