Abstract

A child safety seat is usually installed on a motorcycle when the rider needs to travel along with a small child. However, limited products can be found in Indonesia where motorcycle is the most popular transportation mode. The main objective of this paper is to propose a safe and comfortable child seat design, then perform theoretical strength analyses to evaluate its safety factor. The proposed child safety seat is designed for children under five years old with average weight of 24.2 kg and height of 70–100 cm and is targeted for Honda Vario Techno 150 scooter. The seat is installed on the rear part of the motorcycle, and equipped with a hinge mechanism, hence the rider can refill the gasoline tank by flip** the seat up. Theoretical calculation of safety factors under static and dynamic (fatigue) loading conditions was conducted by two failure criteria, i.e. the Modified Goodman and Gerber. As a result, the fatigue safety factors for Modified Goodman and Gerber criteria are 1.05 and 1.02, respectively. These results imply that the proposed design is reliable and can be considered for real application. In addition, this paper demonstrates a comprehensive machine design procedure which can be referred as a lecture note in mechanical engineering.
