Abstract
A dynapod is a pedalling device that may be used as an interface between a human worker and any rotary machine for utilization of human muscle power in efficient manner. A study was conducted at CIAE, Bhopal to optimize the major design parameters such as power output, pedalling rate, saddle height and crank length for the design of a dynapod. Based on the study conducted on a bicycle ergo-meter for measurement of physiological and psychophysical responses, anthropometric data of male Indian agricultural workers and biomechanical consideration during pedalling, a dynapod was designed and developed. This paper presents the design details of the dynapod.
