Abstract

This paper aims to redesign a modified chassis for tractor trolley. Tractor Trolleys are very popular and cheaper modes
of goods transport in rural as well as urban area. But these trolleys are manufactured in small scale to moderate scale industry,
due to which design of chassis is at primary level. As design is not properly done according to the stress analysis, so if any type of
failure occurs then we can’t afford the replacement of the chassis. As the chassis design is not proper and excess material is used
to overcome the failure, the self weights of the chassis get increases and capacity of the trolley get decreases. The existing trolley
chassis designed by industry uses ‘C’ Cross section and the material used is mild steel. By keeping the material and dimension
similar and using ‘I’ cross section area instead of ‘C’ resulted in more safer stresses than ‘C’ and reduction in weight.
