Abstract

The thermal energy carbon-free trolley is a three-wheeled trolley that uses the energy released by the combustion of alcohol as the driving force and moves according to a fixed trajectory to realize the function of avoiding obstacles. Eliminating transmission errors, realizing precise steering and obstacle avoidance, and getting out of a fixed trajectory and travel are the most important issues in the study of carbon-free trolleys. Through trajectory simulation, the innovative design of each mechanism minimizes trajectory errors. For the steering mechanism, a cam pendulum mechanism and a micrometer finetuning mechanism are designed to achieve precise steering; for the transmission mechanism, a transmission mode combining belt transmission and gear transmission is designed to reduce the vibration of the Stryn engine and ensure a fixed transmission ratio. For the traveling mechanism, a single-wheel drive mechanism is designed to ensure the motion accuracy.
