What you need to make the tricycle ?
If bicycle wheels are unavailable or too expensive, you can manufacture them yourself (refer to «Making AWheel For A Wheelchair», Handicap International edition, 1st Quarter 1994).You can also make a pipe-bending machine (refer to «How To Make A Pipe-Bending Machine», byM. Walsby - IT edition) Intermediate Technologies Publications Ltd.
9 King Street, London WC2E8HW, U.K.
The tricycle model presented here has been manufactured for the last 10 years, using materials andaccessories available locally.Whenever possible, we will show you other existing solutions.You will then be able to adapt manufacture ofthe tricycle to materials you have available...Don’t hesitate to develop more adapted systems and above all, please send us details!

Preliminary remarks :
All measurements given are in millimeters (mechanic & metallic construction standard) and mustbe considered as such when not stipulated otherwise in the text.
A tube specified as «light» has a maximum thickness of 1mm.A tube specified as «heavy» has a thickness of more than 1mm (often 1,5 or 2,0mm).
The parts are numbered and correspond with numbers shown in diagrams in the appendix. Theyare numbered as parts of a subset.Relative to the original plans, some parts have been modified or not used, and numbers aretherefore not necessarily consecutive.
For greater strength in the assembly of parts, tubes must be correctly adjusted to each other, thusalso making welding easier.

ASSEMBLY
➡ Place the two lateral corner irons N°143 (angles facing downwards) horizontally, opposite eachother, 400mm apart. Then place corner irons N°142 (angles facing upwards) horizontally at theends. The seat frame is then completed by fitting a metallic grid made of 4 lengths of 400mm flatiron (N°148), welded parallel to the lateral corner irons with a 65mm space between them,supported by corner irons N°142.
➡ Flatten both ends of the backrest tube (N°141) on the inside, and fit them either side of the rearcorner iron. The lower ends are then at the lowest point of the angle of the lateral corner ironN°143. Fix the backrest, its final position being determined by placing the arm-rest 210mm fromthe base of the backrest and in the two angles to the front of the seat base. The metal grid forcushion support is then placed in the backrest as follows. Fix two 440mm long flat irons (N°147)vertically, 120mm from the backrest base. Fix N°145 horizontally, 140mm from the upper edge ofthe rear corner iron and N°146, 280 mm from the upper edge of the rear corner iron. (see fig. 5)

7. The fork
38 The lever-powered tricycle
A commercial bicycle fork is used here and modified to correspond to our needs. Modifications involve thelength of the fork arms, the diameter of the wheel fixation, the length of the fork axis, and lastly, theaddition of the two parts (N°191) which will hold the steering transmission rods.
Modification of the fork arms:Heat and disconnect the two fork arms and cut 100mm off their length. While the fork arms are free, grinddown the wheel fixing points to allow for use of a bigger wheel axle (rear wheel hub).
Shortening axle length:As the handlebar pillar length required is shorter than that of a normal bicycle model, reduce the threadedpart of the axle by 30mm, leaving a length of only 160mm.
N°192: Parts holding steering transmission rods Heavy duty corner iron 25 x 25mm, length:40mmCut: 2 pcs.x 20mm. Drill: 6mm diam. hole in the center of onewing of each part, Reduce the other wing by10mm.

Once the tracing is done (see diagram), cutusing chassis shears for the general form,heavy duty shears for notches, and a chiselfor the central oblong hole. Then drill 14holes of 4mm diameter, 150mm apart, in theiron sheet.These holes are for fixation, using3 x 10mm aluminum rivets. (see fig. 15)

Use heavy duty shearsto modify the side of one arm-rest (left orright, depending on the user’s preference)for the brake fixation.
Drill 8 holes of 4mm diameter in the sides tofix them on the arm-rest, using 3 x 10 mmaluminum rivets. Being symmetrical, bothsides are made in the same way.(see fig. 16)

VARIATIONS
Elements mentioned as being purchased in commerce in the preceeding pages may notalways be available (or their price be too high). We have therefore attempted here todevelop replacement solutions. For this wheelchair model developed in Bobo-Dioulasso, it is possible to replace the forkand brake system. The following alternatives come from similar models, built at Dosso(Niger).
