 ABSTRACT

In now a days two wheelers plays a important role in transport. Due to humans
carelessness accidents happening. In that most important in due to forget to hold this side
stand in two wheeler.
This project work titled "AUTOMATIC PNEUMATIC STAND FOR TWO WHEELER"
has been conceived having studied the difficulty in standing the any type of two wheeler
vehicle.
Our survey in the regard in several automobile garages, revealed the facts that mostly
some difficult methods were adopted in standing the vehicles in rest.
Now the project has mainly concentrated on this difficulty, and hence a suitable hydraulic
unit has been designed.
Such that the vehicles can be stand the floor land without application of any impact
force. By pressing the button in the dashboard, the solenoid valve activates the hydraulic
jack automatically.
The fabrication part of it has been considered with almost case for its simplicity and
economy, such that this can be accommodated as one of the essential tools on automobile
garages.

INTRODUCTION
The side stand is used for supporting a parked motorcycle. If the rider may forget
to retract the side stands before riding, then the undistracted stand hitting the ground and
affected the riders control during the turn.
Now a day’s sensor are used for ensure that the stand is in released condition. The motor-
cycle side stand consists of a metallic rod and helical spring which is offset from the cen-
tre.
Some side stand retract automatically when the motorcycle is lifted up the support some
other are fit with electrical interlocks , warning devices or special retracting mechanism.
In this paper there is possibility to reduce the evident which is takes place by the side
stand.
Side stand in two wheelers function the entire weight of the vehicle when it is parked.
They are perfect on quick stop when one need to leave the vehicle for short while. They
are provided with the spring that pulls it back into position to ensure extra safety.
This device the two wheeler Pneumatic stand for standing the vehicle garages has been
developed to later the needs of two wheeler automobile garages. In most of the garages
the vehicles are standing by using spring with liver stand. This needs high man power
requirement and impact forces.
In order to avoid all such disadvantages, this two wheeler pneumatic stand has been de-
signed in such a way that it can be used to stand the vehicle very smoothly without any
impact force. The operation is made be simple that even any person can handled, by just
pressing the button.

As a trainee mechanical engineer, I wanted to work on a project work that would show-
case my engineering knowledge. I got the opportunity to work on Automatic pneumatic
side stand. This project was very important as it evaluated my skills and talents in my
company.

1.2 General activity of mechanical engineer

The most distinctive characteristic of mechanical engineering is motion. That is, the de-
vices a mechanical engineer designs and builds involve movement of some kind. It might
be as simple as a valve opening and closing or as complex as the operation of a automatic
pneumatic stand for two wheller. Because moving parts are essential to almost everything
people build, you’ll find mechanical engineers involved in all kinds of engineering pro-
jects.

1.3Personal engineering activity

The more I learn about mechanical engineering, the more assured I become that a career
as a mechanical engineer is suited to me.
As a mechanical engineer, before undertaking any task I checked the feasibility of the
project. In this project, my role is as team members.
This report provides an insight into the design and fabrication of Automatic pneumatic
side stand.
I wanted to know more details of the project before commencing; hence, I researched the
topic thoroughly by referring to journals and articles online. Additionally, I obtained
more information by taking references about the topic.

LITERATURE SURVEY

Automatic pneumatic side stand for two wheeler

2.1 Field of the Invention

The present invention relates to two wheeler stands, and relates more particularly to an
automatic two wheeler stand.

2.2 Background of the Invention

In general, two wheelers have a regular stand pivotally connected to a stand holder at the
bottom. When a two wheeler is stopped, the stand is kicked to the extended position (op-
erative position) to support the two wheeler on the ground and the vehicle is required to
be lifted / pulled back to be mounted on the stand in order to park it. The users and more
specially aged people and ladies are not able to pull back the two wheeler on the stand
comfortably. Furthermore, it is difficult to move the stand of a two wheeler between the
operative position and the non operative position when in a narrow area.

2.3Summary of invention
To solve the above-described problems, it is an objective of the present invention to make
the present invention more advantageous and technically sound than the conventional two
wheeler stands. The present invention relates to two wheeler stands, and relates more par-
ticularly to an automatic two wheeler stand which uses a Pneumatically powered cylin-
der. This system helps to unfold the legs of the two wheeler stand from the horizontal po-
sition to the vertical position and to push open the assembly on which the legs are mount-
ed with the help of pneumatic cylinder, up to the pre-set height which lifts the two
wheeler and parks it on the stand automatically.
In a pneumatically operated system, the double acting cylinder will be operated with the
help of a pneumatic pump run either by the help of a DC motor or by running the pump
by connecting it directly to the Chain of the two wheeler and storing the pressurized air in
a reserve air tank to be used when required to operate the automatic stand. The reserve air
pressure is to be determined by a pressure switch and the operation of the air pump to cut
off automatic switch when the determined reserve pressure is achieved. The advantage of
this system is saving in cost due to elimination of the hydraulic power pack and elimina-
tion of the use of Oil in the system. This system uses air as medium which is free of cost.
But this system has a disadvantage due to its high maintenance cost and increase in size
of unit generating air pressure.

2.4 Pneumatics:
The word ‘pneuma’ comes from Greek and means breather wind. The word pneumatics is
the study of air movement and its phenomena is derived from the word pneuma. Today
pneumatics is mainly understood to means the application of air as a working medium in
industry especially the driving and controlling of machines and equipment.
Pneumatics has for some considerable time between used for bikerying out the simplest
mechanical tasks in more recent times has played a more important role in the develop-
ment of pneumatic technology for automation.
Pneumatic systems operate on a supply of compressed air which must be made available
in sufficient quantity and at a pressure to suit the capacity of the system. When the pneu-
matic system is being adopted for the first time, however it wills indeed the necessary to
deal with the question of compressed air supply.
The key part of any facility for supply of compressed air is by means using reciprocating
compressor. A compressor is a machine that takes in air, gas at a certain pressure and de-
livered the air at a high pressure.
Compressor capacity is the actual quantity of air compressed and delivered and the vol-
ume expressed is that of the air at intake conditions namely at atmosphere pressure and
normal ambient temperature.
The compressibility of the air was first investigated by Robert Boyle in 1962 and that
found that the product of pressure and volume of a particular quantity of gas.
The usual written as
PV = C (or) P1V1 =P2V2……………………………… (1)

In this equation the pressure is the absolute pressured which for free is about 14.7 Psi and
is of courage capable of maintaining a column of mercury, nearly 30 inches high in an
ordinary barometer. Any gas can be used in pneumatic system but air is the mostly used
system now a days.

2.5Pneumatic actuator
Physical processes proceeding in drives are submitted to the gas laws. The gas laws are a
set of laws that describe the relationship between thermodynamic temperature (T), pres-
sure (P) and volume (V) of gases. Three of these laws, Boyle’s law, Charles’s law, and
Gay-Lussac’s law, may be combined to form the combined gas law

P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2 ………………………(2)

Which with the addition of Avogadro’s law later gave way to the ideal gas law. Other
important gas laws include Dalton’s law of partial pressures. The kinetic theory of gases,
Graham’s law of effusion and root mean square velocity explains how individual mole-
cules act in a gas and their relation to pressure, volume, and temperature. A gas that
obeys these gas laws is known exactly as an ideal gas (or perfect gas). An ideal gas does
not exist; however, some gases follow the laws more closely than the others in given
standard conditions.
The most important gas law is the ideal gas law, which states that: PV = nRT

10
Other gas laws, such as vander Waals equation, seek to correct the ideal gas laws to re-
flect the behaviour of actual gases. Van der Waals equation alters the ideal gas law to re-
flect how actual gases function using a series of calculated values called van der Waals
constant
Any gas can be used in pneumatic system but air is the mostly used system now a days.

2.6 Selection of pneumatics

Mechanization is broadly defined as the replacement of manual effort by mechanical
power. Pneumatic is an attractive medium for low cost mechanization particularly for se-
quential (or) repetitive operations. Many factories and plants already have a compressed
air system, which is capable of providing the power (or) energy requirements and the
control system (although equally pneumatic control systems may be economic and can be
advantageously applied to other forms of power).
The main advantage of an all pneumatic system are usually economic and simplicity the
latter reducing maintenance to a low level. It can also have out standing advantages in
terms of safety.

2.7 Pneumatic power

Pneumatic systems use pressurised gas to transmit and control power. Pneumatic systems
typically use air as the fluid medium because air is safe, free and readily available.
Advantages of Pneumatics:
1. Air used in pneumatic systems can be directly exhausted in to the surrounding envi-
ronment and hence the need of special reservoirs and no-leak system designs are elimi-
nated.
2. Pneumatic systems are simple in design and economical.
3. Control of pneumatic systems is easier.
Disadvantages of Pneumatics:
1. Pneumatic systems exhibit spongy characteristics due to compressibility of air.
2. Pneumatic pressures are quite low due to compressor design limitations (less that 250
psi)

3.2 Description

3.2.1 Two wheeler side stand

A Side stand is a device on a bicycle or motorcycle that allows the bike to be
kept upright without leaning against another object or the aid of a person. A
"smaller, more convenient" kickstand was developed by Joseph Paul Treen, the father
of former Louisiana Governor, Dave Treen.
A kickstand is usually a piece of metal that flips down from the frame and makes con-
tact with the ground. It is generally located in the middle of the bike or towards the
rear. Some touring bikes have two: one at the rear, and a second in the front.
A side stand style kickstand is a single leg that simply flips out to one side, usually
the non-drive side, and the bike then leans against it. Side stands can be mounted to
the chain stays right behind the bottom bracket or to a chain and seat stay near the
rear hub.
Side stands mounted right behind the bottom bracket can be bolted on, either clamp-
ing the chain stays or to the bracket between them, or welded into place as an integral
part of the frame.

3.2.2 Pneumatic cylinder
The basic, rod-style industrial cylinder consists of a tube sealed by end caps. A rod at-
tached to an internal piston extends through a sealed opening in one of the ends. The cyl-
inder mounts to a machine and the piston rod acts upon the load.
A port at one end of the cylinder supplies compressed air to one side of the piston, caus-
ing it (and the piston rod) to move. The port at the other end lets air on the opposite side
of the piston escape —usually to atmosphere. Reversing the roles of the two ports makes
the piston and rod stroke in the opposite direction.
Rod-style cylinders function in two ways: Double-acting cylinders use compressed air to
power both the extend and retract strokes, moving the rod back and forth. This arrange-
ment makes them ideal for pushing and pulling loads. Controlling the rate at which air
exhausts determines rod speed. Single-acting cylinders have compressed air supplied to
only one side of the piston; the other side vents to atmosphere. Depending on whether air
is routed to the cap or rod end determines whether the rod extends or retracts.

3.2.3Air compressor
An air compressor is a device that converts power (using an electric motor, diesel or gas-
oline engine, etc.) into potential energy stored in pressurized air (i.e., compressed air). By
one of several methods, an air compressor forces more and more air into a storage tank,
increasing the pressure.
When tank pressure reaches its upper limit the air compressor shuts off. The compressed
air, then, is held in the tank until called into use. The energy contained in the compressed
air can be used for a variety of applications, utilizing the kinetic energy of the air as it is
releasedand the tank depressurizes.
When tank pressure reaches its lower limit, the air compressor turns on again and re-
pressurizes the tank.

3.2.3Solenoid valve
A solenoid valve is an electromechanically operated valve. The valve is controlled by an
electric current through a solenoid: in the case of a two-port valve the flow is switched on
or off; in the case of a three-port valve, the outflow is switched between the two outlet
ports. Multiple solenoid valves can be placed together on a manifold.

Solenoid valves are the most frequently used control elements in fluidics. Their tasks are
to shut off, release, dose, distribute or mix fluids. They are found in many application
areas. Solenoids offer fast and safe switching, high reliability, long service life, good
medium compatibility of the materials used, low control power and compact design.

Besides the plunger-type actuator which is used most frequently, pivoted-armature

actuators and rocker actuators are also used.

16
Fig- 3.6 Solenoid valve

A solenoid valve is an electromechanical valve for use with liquid or gas. The valve is
controlled by an electric current through a solenoid coil. Solenoid valves are the most
frequently used control elements in fluidics. Their tasks are to shut off, release, dose,
distribute or mix fluids. They are found in many application areas.

For controlling the air flow in and out of the engine we use a 3/2 pilot operated normally
closed valve. The symbol of the 3/2 valve is as shown:

Fig- 3.7Valve Symbol

The specifications of the valve are the following:

• Orifice: 12mm.

17
• Operating pressure range: 0.15-0.8mpa
• Flow rate: 10kg-cm2/minute
• Coil width: 16mm.
• Voltage: 12V DC
• Duty cycle: Continuous

Fig. 3.8 Construction and Working of 3/2 valve

The figure shows the operation of a pilot operated 3/2 pneumatic valve. The solenoid
operates the small pilot valve directly. Because this valve has a small area, a low
operating force is requires. The pilot valve applies line pressure to the top of the control
valve causing it to move down, closing the exhaust port.
When it contacts the main valve disc there are two forces acting on the valve stem. The
pilot valve applies a downwards force of P×D, where P is the line pressure and D is the
area of the control valve. Line pressure also applies an upwards force P×E to the stem,
where E is the area of the main valve.
The area of the control valve, D, is greater than area of the main valve E, so the
downwards force is the larger and the valve opens.
When the solenoid de-energizes, the space above the control valve is vented. Line and
spring pressure on the main valve causes the valve stem to rise again.
Directional control valves are one of the most fundamental parts in hydraulic machinery
as well and pneumatic machinery.
They allow fluid flow into different paths from one or more sources. They usually consist
of a spool inside a cylinder which is mechanically or electrically controlled. The
movement of the spool restricts or permits the flow, thus it controls the fluid flow.

18
The directional valve is one of the important parts of a pneumatic system. Commonly
known as DCV, this valve is used to control the direction of air flow in the pneumatic
system. The directional valve does this by changing the position of its internal movable
parts.
This valve was selected for speedy operation and to reduce the manual effort and also for
the modification of the machine into automatic machine by means of using a solenoid
valve.
A solenoid is an electrical device that converts electrical energy into straight line motion
and force. These are also used to operate a mechanical operation which in turn operates
the valve mechanism. Solenoids may be push type or pull type.
The push type solenoid is one which the plunger is pushed when the solenoid is energized
electrically. The pull type solenoid is one is which the plunger is pulled when the
solenoid is energized.

3.3 Parts of a solenoid valve:

3.3.1 Coil:
The solenoid coil is made of copper wire. The layers of wire are separated by insulating
layer. The entire solenoid coil is covered with a varnish that is not affected by solvents,
moisture, cutting oil or often fluids. Coils are rated in various voltages such as 115 volts
ac, 230 volts ac, 460 volts ac, 575 volts ac, 6 volts dc, 12 volts dc, 24 volts dc, 115 volts
dc & 230 volts dc. They are designed for such frequencies as 50 hz to 60 hz.

3.3.2 Frame:
The solenoid frame serves several purposes. Since it is made of laminated sheets, it is
magnetized when the current passes through the coil. The magnetized coil attracts the
metal plunger to move. The frame has provisions for attaching the mounting. They are
usually bolted or welded to the frame. The frame has provisions for receivers, the
plunger. The wear strips are mounted to the solenoid frame, and are made of materials
such as metal or impregnated less fiber cloth

3.3.3 Solenoid plunger

The solenoid plunger is the mover mechanism of the solenoid. The plunger is made of
steel laminations which are riveted together under high pressure, so that there will be no
movement of the lamination with respect to one another. At the top of the plunger a pin
hole is placed for making a connection to some device. The solenoid plunger is moved by
a magnetic force in one direction and is usually returned by spring action.
Solenoid operated valves are usually provided with cover over either the solenoid or the
entire valve. This protects the solenoid from dirt and other foreign matter, and protects
the actuator. In many applications it is necessary to use explosion proof solenoids.

19
3.4 Working of solenoid valve:
The solenoid valve has 5 openings. This ensures easy exhausting of 5/2 valve. The spool
of the 5/2 valve slide inside the main bore according to spool position; the ports get
connected and disconnected. The working principle is as follows
Position-1
When the spool is actuated towards outer direction port ‘p’ gets connected to ‘b’ and ‘s’
remains closed while ‘a’ gets connected to ‘r’
Poisition-2
When the spool is pushed in the inner direction port ‘p’ and ‘a’ gets connected to each
other and ‘b’ to ‘s’ while port ‘r’ remains close

Fig-3.9.5/2 Way Solenoid Valve Sectional View

3.5 Solenoid valve (or) cut off valve

The control valve is used to control the flow direction is called cut off valve or solenoid
valve. This solenoid cut off valve is controlled by the electronic control unit.
In our project separate solenoid valve is used for flow direction of vice cylinder. It is used
to flow the air from compressor to the single acting cylinder.

3.6 Flow control valve

In any fluid power circuit, flow control valve is used to control the speed of the actuator.
The flow control can be achieved by varying the area of flow through which the air in
passing.

20
When area is increased, more quantity of air will be sent to actuator as a result its speed
will increase. If the quantity of air entering into the actuator is reduced, the speed of the
actuator is reduced.
Flow control valves facilitate high precision adjustment of flow volumes and are used to
precisely control the piston speed of a drive.
For adjustable speed via exhaust air flow control. The piston moves between air cushions
created through freely flowing supply air and restricted exhaust air. The benefit is im-
proved operating behaviour, even in the event of load changes

Fig-3.10 flow control valve

For adjustable speed via supply air flow control. The piston is moved via an air cushion
at one end, created by freely flowing exhaust air and restricted supply air. In contrast with
exhaust air restriction, there is a tendency towards a stick-slip effect.

3.7 Hoses
Hoses used in this pneumatic system are made up of polyurethane. These hose can with
stand at a maximum pressure level of 10 n/m². Polyurethane combines the best properties
of both plastic and rubber. It offers abrasion and tear resistance, high tensile and elonga-
tion values, and low compression set.
Polyurethane is naturally flexible and exhibits virtually unlimited flexural abilities. Com-
bining good chemical resistance with excellent weathering characteristics sets polyure-
thane apart from most other thermoplastics. It has exceptional resistance to most gaso-
lines, oils, kerosene, and other petroleum based chemicals, making it an ideal choice for
fuel lines (although additives in today’s gasoline and petroleum products warrant field
testing).

3.8 Applications of pu tube:

• any time condensation can occur with small actuators, air grippers and air operated
valves. Condensation in a pneumatic system will cause operating failure and affect the
life of pneumatic equipment.
• manufacturers of electrical components.
• when you need to eliminate water condensation but you cannot use a membrane or des-
iccant dryer (as you cannot use a fast exhaust).

3.9 benefits of pu tube

• longer life of other pneumatic equipment.
• prevents operational failure of small actuators, air grippers and pilot operated valves
due to condensation.
• avoids corrosion in other pneumatic equipment.

23
• diffuses water vapour in the piping to the outside before it liquefies, so we avoid prob-
lems such as dried grease or ozone when using other types of dryers.
• easy mounting.

3.10 Connectors
In our system hose connectors are used . Hose connectors normally comprise an adoptee
hose nipple. These types of connectors are made up of brass (or) aluminum (or) hardened
pneumatic steel. For these type hose connectors no need of hose clamp these are self-
locking hose connectors. A multi way four way hose connecter.

erties to resistant to welding spatter the economical combination for applications not in
close proximity to welding applications. Also reliable for applications in direct proximity
to welding splatter double-sheathed tube and special fitting.

3.11control unit

A pneumatic multipurpose device is an air-operated device used for many small opera-
tions. It is a portable one. Compressed air is the source of energy for this device. The
compressed air is allowed to pass through the nozzle in such a way that the rotation ob-
tained is utilized for machining.
The nozzles welded to the fan can be rotated in either direction. The rpm and torque of
the shaft depends upon the pressure of the air admitted so by varying the pressure, the
rpm and torque can be varied. Thick tubes interconnect the parts. The clamps are used at
the connecting parts to prevent leakage. In thread parts seals are used to prevent leakage.
The compressed air from the compressor first enters the control unit. In the control unit
the pressure of the air is controlled and sent to the barrel to rotate the fan in the required
direction. The gate valve controls the pressure and volume of air. Then the pressure is
read by a pressure gauge. Later the air is admitted to the barrel, a shaft is placed and it
bikeries the fan.
The shaft is supported by bearing. The bearings are placed in the couplings, which covers
the end of barrel.

3.12 Bolt
A screw, or bolt, is a type of fastener, typically made of metal, and characterized by a
helical ridge, known as a male thread (external thread) or just thread, wrapped around a

25
cylinder. Some screw threads are designed to mate with a complementary thread, known
as a female thread (internal thread), often in the form of a nut or an object that has the
internal thread formed into it. Other screw threads are designed to cut a helical groove in
a softer material as the screw is inserted. The most common uses of screws are to hold
objects together and to position objects.
A screw will almost always have a head on one end which contains a specially formed
shape that allows it to be turned, or driven, with a tool. Common tools for driving screws
include screwdrivers and wrenches. The head is usually larger than the body of the screw,
which keeps the screw from being driven deeper than the length of the screw and to pro-
vide a bearing surface.
There are exceptions; for instance, carriage bolts have a domed head that is not designed
to be driven; set screws often have a head smaller than the outer diameter of the screw; j-
bolts have a j-shaped head which is not designed to be driven, but rather is usually sunk
into concrete allowing it to be used as an anchor bolt.
The cylindrical portion of the screw from the underside of the head to the tip is known as
the shank; it may be fully threaded or partially threaded.[1] the distance between each
thread is called the "pitch".The majority of screws are tightened by clockwise rotation,
which is termed a right-hand thread; a common mnemonic device for remembering this
when working with screws or bolts is "righty-tighty, lefty-loosey." screws with left-hand
threads are used in exceptional cases.
For example, when the screw will be subject to counterclockwise torque (which would
work to undo a right-hand thread), a left-hand-threaded screw would be an appropriate
choice. The left side pedal of a bicycle has a left-hand thread.More generally, screw may
mean any helical device, such as a clamp, a micrometer, a ship's propeller or an archime-
des' screw water pump.

3.13 Hex nut
A nut is a type of fastener with a threaded hole. Nuts are almost always used opposite a
mating bolt to fasten a stack of parts together. The two partners are kept together by a
combination of their threads' friction, a slight stretch of the bolt, and compression of the
parts.
In applications where vibration or rotation may work a nut loose, various locking mecha-
nisms may be employed: adhesives, safety pins or lockwire, nylon inserts, or slightly
oval-shaped threads.
The most common shape is hexagonal, for similar reasons as the bolt head - 6 sides give a
good granularity of angles for a tool to approach from (good in tight spots), but more
(and smaller) corners would be vulnerable to being rounded off.
Also it takes only 1/6th of a rotation to obtain the next side of the hexagon and grip is op-
timal.however polygons with more than 6 sides do not give the requisite grip and poly-
gons with less than 6 sides take more time to be given a complete rotation.other special-
ized shapes exist for certain needs, such as wing nuts for finger adjustment and captive
nuts for inaccessible areas.
Nuts are graded with strength ratings compatible with their respective bolts; for example,
an iso property class 10 nut will be able to support the bolt proof strength load of an iso
property class 10.9 bolt without stripping. Likewise, an sae class 5 nut can support the
proof load of an sae class 5 bolt, and so on.A wide variety of nuts exists, from household
hardware versions to specialized industry-specific designs that are engineered to meet
various technical standards.

3.14 Washer
A washer is a thin plate (typically disk-shaped) with a hole (typically in the middle) that
is normally used to distribute the load of a threaded fastener, such as a screw or nut. Oth-
er uses are as a spacer, spring (belleville washer, wave washer), wear pad, preload indi-
cating device, locking device, and to reduce vibration (rubber washer).
Washers usually have an outer diameter (od) about twice the width of their inner diameter
(id).Washers are usually metal or plastic.
High quality bolted joints require hardened steel washers to prevent the taps (or faucets,
or valves) to stop the flow of water are sometimes referred to colloquially as washers;
but,while they may look similar, washers and gaskets are usually designed for differ-
entfunctions and made differently the origin of the word is unknown; the first recorded
use of the word was in 1346, however the first time its definition was recorded was in
1611.

WORKING
The dash pad switch was activated at the time of any breakdown condition. The control
signal is given to the solenoid valve, when the button is activated. The air is goes from
the compressor to the solenoid valve through flow control valve.

The solenoid valve is activated at the time of dash pad button “on”. The compressed fluid
(air) goes to the hydraulic cylinder. The compressed air pusses the pneumatic cylinder
piston and move forward. The ram is fixed at the end of the single acting pneumatic cyl-
inder. The piston moves towards the ground and the ram is standing the vehicle.
The solenoid valve is deactivated at the time of dash pad button “off”. The pneumatic
cylinder fluid (air) goes to the atmosphere through solenoid valve.

CONCLUSION AND FUTURE SCOPE

Conclusion

After completing the project, conclude that our project is simple in construction and
compact in size for use. Manufacturing of machine is easy and cost of the machine is less.

6.1 Future scope

This is an new and revolutionary technique in the world of automation. It enhance the
safety of rider life and reduce road accidental probability.
This technique is to inplement in all two wheelers for human life safety. For a careless
rider, its usual mistake to remove side stand and it leads to something wrong(miss hap-
pening). We can implement this and reduce a factor of accidents
- reduce human nullified
- reduce two wheeler accident probability
- more suitable and compact mechanism to enhance safety
