Objectives  Present the problem statement for the selected project.  Provide an overview of the Design Partition for the project.  Review the Project Plan over the course of the semester.  Present the Task Assignments for the project.

Problem Statement   There exists a need for a more compact roof mounted bicycle rack device that will minimize the overall height added to a vehicle when a bicycle is being transported.   With existing top loaded bike racks, drivers are restricted from entering a height restricted areas such as a parking garage, fast food restaurant drive-through, drive-through bank tellers, etc.   Alternatives to roof mounted bicycle carrier systems available to consumers exist: – –Hitch mount racks, mount to a tow hitch located at the rear of the vehicle. These requires a user to own a vehicle with a tow hitch or the user must have a tow hitch installed. – –Trunk mounted removable racks, offer a universal method of transporting bicycles on a broad range of vehicles. They do not offer optimal levels of fit and may not restrain a bicycle safely if the rack is not installed properly.

Problem Statement   Consumers opt for roof mounted rack systems since they offer the range of versatile carrying capabilities.   items such as bicycles, boats, canoes, kayaks, camping equipment, snow sport gear, and cargo boxes can be carried using the appropriate rack attachment.

Problem Statement   The goal of this project is to extend the versatility of roof mounted rack systems by developing a compact bike carrier that will allow consumers the freedom to travel unrestricted in height restricted areas.

Design Partition  Attach Bike Carrier to Rack System: -design attachment system to place trough rail onto standard aftermarket Yakima or Thule rack system.  Secure Bike: -trough rail needed to extend entire length of bike -support bike at front and rear ends of trough rail. -torsional rigidity should be achieved when bike is secure.

Design Partition  Lowering/Raising Mechanism -should lower/rotate bike and trough rail 90 degrees safely, controlled, and with little human effort. -when lowered, a specified clearance should be achieved so the bike does not come in contact or damage car roof. -bike should be able to be lifted back to upright position for easy and stable loading/unloading. (additional device may be needed) -place stress on rack and not on bike.  Lock Lowered Bike in Position -keep bike from bouncing/traveling during driving -lock empty (not in use) rack system.

Collapsible Space Saver Bike Rack Roof mounted sport racks are popular and useful for carrying bikes and other items that cannot be carried using a hitch mounted rack. However, when transporting bicycles, the advantages of a roof rack are diminished since the bike effectively raised the overall height of the vehicle. When carrying a single bicycle, a collapsible space saving bike rack would minimize the effects of the added height added by the bicycle.
