Special firefighting vehicle

Abstract

Buildings in the Old City including mosques, shops and schools are not accessible by regular firefighting systems because the size regular firefighting vehicles. This project will focus on design and make a suitable firefighting system for those places. The project aims to design and build a model of an electric vehicle suitable for use in narrow passages and arcades within the Old City of Hebron and similar location .The proposed vehicle have a total mass of 1500 kg including electric vehicle with a firefighting unit. The electric vehicle with maximum speed of 30 km/h equipped with electric differential drive by microcontroller “Arduino” with electric two wheel_steering for good maneuverability with adjusting special dimensions (L*W*H = 274.3*113*120.7 cm) and shape to ensure efficient firefighting in small isolated spaces. A prototype has been designed and build with respect to project requirement it has a dimensions of (120*70*57.5 cm) and weight of 56.2 kg .
