Abstract

For any vehicle, steering mechanism is important one, in this research discuss importance of steering mechanism, what kind of steering mechanism used. For designing Unmanned remote control agricultural vehicle is rear wheel drive vehicle and front wheel is used for steer or turn the vehicle, but challenge for designing this type of vehicle is that unmanned remote control agricultural vehicle is not only working in flat road surface but it’s also used in agricultural field also. Another challenge was to working of steering system very fluently and reliable for farmer. The maximum steering effort was found 101.53 N for single wheel and angle for inner and outer wheel was 45.24° and 30.74° respectively. We have also found the turning radius of vehicle was 1490 mm.
