Cars Retrofitting

Innovators designed custom made retrofitting in cars for disabled people which involve modifications in the brake, accelerator, clutch arrangement for operation by hand. Comfort, simplicity and ease of operations are other features embedded in the controls to suit the driving needs of the handicap persons. Innovators modified the driving actions so that the controls are transferred to hand by use of leverage, wires and linkage mechanism. Brake pedal is activated either by mechanical arrangement made of linkage or using an additional hydraulic cylinder arrangement. Using the push-pull type switch, installed in the dashboard, the acceleration gets activated through wire connecting it to the engine. The clutch wire is connected to a semicircular hand steering element, which is connected through the steering assembly to the clutch plate to operate the clutch. Currently, the design is adopted for Scorpio and Maruti, and has to be standardized for any other vehicle.
Being a handicap himself, innovator was not able to drive four wheeler. He was deeply moved by the problems faced by physically challenged persons when it comes to mobility. There were no alternatives available which could enable a handicap person to drive a four wheeler and few car companies provide retrofitting in cars for physically challenged but such cars are costly and difficult to operate. Innovator thus developed a retrofitting which makes driving very easier for physically challenged persons without disturbing
