Design of Rear Suspension Mechanisms of Mountain Bikes

­^¤åºK­n
The purpose of this work is to provide a design procedure of rear suspension mechanisms of mountain bikes by using the concept of engineering design method. First, the conditions and particularities of mountain biking are investigated and the performance specification of rear suspension mechanisms is set by focusing the investigations on the requirements of rear suspension mechanisms. Second, the requirements and constraints of generating different types of rear suspension mechanisms are developed and the systematic process of creative mechanism design is followed. Third, the different types of rear suspension mechanisms resulted from creative mechanism design are analyzed to realize the property of each type of rear suspension mechanisms and the procedure of kinematic design is developed by using the algorithm of heuristic combinatorial optimization method. Finally a computer aided design program written in Visual BASIC 6.0 programming language is developed to be the powerful tool of performance analysis and kinematic design of rear suspension mechanisms.
