Abstract
This paper presents a tubular frame for Micro Electric Vehicle(MEV).Recently,various type of MEV are announced from various company.However,these MEVs are concerned for crash safty.Moreover,the MEV should be manufactured easily to develop the new markets.Therefore,our concept of MEV is safety for collision we apply the tubular frame design.Our designed tubular frame are constituted of round pipe and square pipe.Therefore the tubular frame is produced by a simple production facility such as a pipe bender and welding machine.For experiments,we perform the static analysis and dynamic analysis using Autodesk simulation.We show the weak point of our tubular flame for collision.
