Design and Fabrication of Multi-Terrain Motorized Mountain Board

Our project, a multi-terrain mountain board, is inspired by new-age design with an introduction of engine on a skateboard. What sets it apart from a skateboard is that the engine, used for acceleration, is mounted upon the board. The mountain board includes a chassis on which a deck is supported, a sprocket-chain combination is connected to the rear axle of the chassis, which is connected to the engine. The sprocket is fixed to a wheel which helps to drive the entire board. On the either wheel of the rear axle, a mechanical disc brake is mounted which provides deceleration and stopping the forward motion of the board. High tensile springs are fixed underneath the board which helps in dual suspension and turning of the board. The chassis is inclined to a certain angle from the front axle. This inclination makes the board to turn in any side. More the inclination, easier will be the steering movement.
