Fifth Wheel Mechanism

Abstract

During day to day increase in  population and use of vehicle is increases simultaneously .in case of four wheelers the recent days shows there is problem of parking is facing to driver.

It takes more than 3-4 minutes approximately .it is necessary to more alert during parking so as to avoid the hitting the other cars. So to avoid or overcome these problem a concept or method of parallel parking is made. With the help of fifth wheel mechanism driver can easily park the vehicle between the parallel parking. A pneumatic cylinder and solenoid valve is used to in fifth wheel mechanism for land, lift, and turn. A dc motor is used for forward and reverse motion for fifth wheel. Digital display is used for the driver to neat park vehicle in limited space.
