CALCULATIONS

While constructing a stretchchair, one of the most important aspects is the ability of the chair to handle the load. In the stretchchair, the maximum load is suffered by the wheels. Hence, a major challenge is to see whether wheels can attain the load. We need to make sure that the load and stress are minima on each wheel.
​
While calculating, we have assumed certain things to the maximum such as the weight of a human is 100 kg, angle made by backrest frame and leg frame are 20 degrees and 10 degrees in setting position. The calculation also includes , force required for the struts. Calculations have been made on struts near the leg rest. The load will again get divided if the number of struts are increased or decreased.
