Beta-prototype of a rickshaw suspension system
A suspension system was designed to make The Rickshaw Bank's bicycle-powered rickshaws more comfortable for the drivers. A four bar linkage with a rising rate spring was chosen as the design. An unconventional material-tire rubber-was used as the spring material because it is inexpensive, requires …
