ABSTRACT:The treadmill and bicycle are two commonplace machines that will be combined in this project. Running on it and turning on the motor as necessary makes it feasible to operate this combination machine both physically and electrically. It is a brand-new method of moving. In the gym, people use the treadmill to run while exercising. The main disadvantage of utilizing a treadmill is that it is stationary, which might make people periodically become bored while jogging in the same place without being outside. For short trips, people frequently use commercial vehicles, which increase pollution and waste fuel. This concept concurrently tackles both of these problems in this manner.
A mechanical link moves the car ahead. The alternator's shaft rotates as a result, charging the battery. This walking bicycle can also be occasionally powered by the battery's reserve of electricity. The sprocket and chain system is used to transfer mechanical power from one area to another. Utilizing the proper gear ratio reduces the amount of effort necessary, increasing efficiency.
As part of the project, a device that combines a treadmill and an electric bicycle must also be created. The machine will be powered by electricity and offer several levels of resistance to accommodate users of different fitness levels.
While the treadmill allows users to walk, jog, or run at various speeds, the bicycle pedals will provide the resistance needed for an effective workout. The device will also have a control panel that displays speed, distance, and other crucial information so users can keep track of their progress and adjust their training as needed. Instead of just walking on a treadmill, we want to develop a speedier and more healthy mode of transportation.
Key Words: treadmill, bicycle, sprocket
