My name is Charles Skender and I am a 21 year old design student studying 4th year Industrial Design at the Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology in Melbourne, Australia. Originally from Perth, Western Australia, I graduated in 2007 from Hale High School with a TEE score of 96.2 and a Certificate of Excellence. In 2008 I completed a year of Environmental Design at the University of Western Australia. In 2009 I moved away from home and across to Melbourne where I started my second undergraduate course, Industrial Design. Since then I have developed a love for design and my passion for simplicity with functionality is constantly reflected throughout my folio of work.

future cruiser

Cruiser motorcycles lend their design origins to the style of American machines from the 1930s to the early 1960s. Whether driven individually or in a gang, cruiser motorcycles scream rebellion. With their highly chrome finish and excessively loud/big engines, cruisers are much more than a mode of transport. However I believe in a current climate these philosophies must change. I adopted a design philosophy of creating a cruiser that still looks cool without the chrome and noise. For a product without such deep cultural heritage this would be an easier task. However for something which entirely covered in history and tradition, design choices needed to be made early in the process. Thus I reached a point where I had to choose between two directions; I either draw on this tradition or challenge it and re-create the cruiser.

Instead of loud this bike would be quite so why not make it as quiet as possible with a shaft driven system. Instead of the bike being dominated by the engine and frame, this would all become hidden beneath a fairing portraying a very minimal look.

Cruiser motorcycles are mainly defined by their riding position. The feet are usually placed forward and the hands up, with the spine erect or leaning back slightly. To cement my design as a cruiser this relaxed riding position will not change along with the large rake angle and tyre sizes typically seen in cruisers.

From an early age his dream has been to own a business building custom choppers. Sometimes he/she also has a tv program.

On the 27th of August my fellow classmates and I visited Egineair. Egineair sole business is the development of the Di Pietro Compressed air engine. This engine works on the principal of a rotary piston. As air enters the chamber it expands causing the tank to rotate. The higher the power of the compressed air the higher the power output will be. In the warehouse Angelo, Egineair owner and product inventor, has attempted to convert many real life vehicles. These included scooters, lawn mowers, go-karts, forklifts, cars and service vehicles. All work on the same principal but vary on the compressed air tank size. The tank size largely depends on the distance of the journey and the size of the vehicle. For something like the service vehicle, which is designed for carrying large loads, the tank is much larger compared to something like the scooter. The efficiency of these engines sits up around 88%, which is fare greater when compared to 30% for a standard petrol engine and 45% for diesel.

There is a way to further increase the efficiency. Normally a 9L tank at 200 bar would run out in around 10 minutes. However with the introduction of a heat exchange it is possible to more than double the running time. The heat exchange works by expanding the air that is already in the tank. A vehicle naturally generates heat when running due to friction and other forces. Also there is latent heat being emitted by the ground. If we can harness this heat to help expand the air we can increase the efficiency of the motor. Thus if you double the heat you double the distance.

To refill the tank the vehicle could be simply driven up next to any preexisting air compressor. This could wither be run of mains power or have an external solar panel attached for complete green energy. To make the re-filling process as efficient as possible the compressor would need to be kept cool.

When riding at high speeds the upper body experiences a large amount of wind resistance. This creates added pressure on the wrists and lower back as the rider attempts to compensate and pull him/herself forward. At lower speeds wind is less of an issue and the posture becomes more natural.

The bike will be powered by the Di Pietro Air Engine which combines the power of compressed air and a rotary piston engine. In order to increase the efficiency of the engine I have decided to include a heat exchange. This works by expanding the air thus compressing it more creating a higher power output. On top of this the bike will have centre hub steering, single side swing arms and a belt drive system. OEM parts include the Luxfer tank. This is their Type 3 Alternative Fuel Vehicle Cylinder with alightweight aluminium liner, machined thread and high performance carbon fibre overwrap in epoxy resin matrix. The wheels and belt are also most lickley to be OEM parts but due the nature of the design this is about all.

PACKAGING

PRODUCT LIFE CYCLE

Transportation of the product is made easy through a rectangular design which is easily stackable onto pallets. When unloaded shop hand would remove perforated middle section and divider. After this the it would be folded in half, orientating the bars in a portrait position. If one half of the box became empty before the other, the empty half would simply be removed.

TRANSPORTATION & DISPLay

PERFORATE EDGE

After chocolate is consumed my hope is that the consumer would become intrigued by the unusual concept of the packaging and be tempted to keep it and possibly re-label its function. For example an unused chocolate wrapper could become a pencil base or not holder where one could access its contents easily by the pull of a tab. This would provide a form of free advertising for Nestle.REC

YCLE!

FINAL DESIGN

The inspiration for my final concept came from the observation of mobile phone cases, in particular, the slip cases developed for the iPhone. I was interested in the way the phone was able to be pulled out of the case by a string. I then adapted to this to the chocolate bar to create a new form of ritual when opening a bar of chocolate. As the tab is pulled the bar is smoothly revealed to the consumer. When correct portion is achieved the extended tab is folded back on itself and stored inside the packaging. The consumer is informed how much of the chocolate he/she has left through the slider bar located on the front of the packaging.

The secondary packaging secures the bar economically in a rectangular box. However once the perforated middle section is removed along with built in divider, the shop keeper can easily fold it over into two display boxes complete with handle for easy transportation around the shop. This design maximises storage capacity while minimising materials.

S T E P 1First step involves cutting out provided pattern from 6mm MDF. Cuts can be made either by a Jigsaw or Laser Cutter if facilities are available.

S T E P 2Next the 8mm threaded rod needs to be cut down to size. Required are 3 lengths of 180mm, 3 lengths of 65mm and 2 lengths of 30mm. File edges. To ensure nuts fit onto thread, screw 2 nuts either side of cut line prior to cut and unscrew after cut is made.

S T E P 3Cut PVC pipe with hacksaw. Lengths required are 150mm, 190mm, 2 x 45mm, 2 x 50mm and 40mm. Sand edges after cut.

S T E P 4Once MDF is cut the will need a light sand.

S T E P 5Because the MDF will be exposed to an environment that will likely include water it will need to be sealed. This can be done by applying a 50/50 solution of PVA and water.

S T E P 6Parts are spray painted according to taste. A primer will need to be used when spray painting the PVC pipe.

S T E P 7The base is first assembled with the bottom iron put in place before gluing in desired position with a 5 minute epoxy.

S T E P 8Handle is attached to the base with 2 of the 180mm lengths of threaded rod.

S T E P 9Pivots are next attached using the 30mm lengths of threaded rod to complete the base assembly.

S T E P 10Upper plate assembly is next completed as shown with the 65mm lengths of threaded rod.

S T E P 11The last length of 180mm threaded rod is used to attach the upper plate assembly to the base assembly.

1. The materials used (brass, glass and ceramic) are all very traditional in their heritage. Brass (Copper-Zinc Alloy) was used prolifically in the Victorian era in the construction of ornamental fittings, jewellery and cutlery. The use of Brass tries to add values associated with the Victorian era (Victorian Woman to be more specific) into the product. Brass parts would most likely be cast.

2. Ceramic, another traditional material, is used on top of the cap and is joined to the Brass by a technique called glaze bonding. It adds weight creating a reassuring quality.

3. Finally, the body of the atomiser is constructed from one of the oldest materials, glass. The bottom of the bottle has a very thick and deep bottom which adds a feeling of quality. The form will be constructed by a method called centrifugal casting.

Concept two is based on a clip on design that can be locked to the seat stem to prevent the need to be removed each time the bike is not in use. Both sides separate to form a ring around the stem and can only be operated once joined.

Currently it can be hard attempting to warn drivers when you are about to turn, especially at night when hand signals are barley visible. Using hands also means a loss in stability and most people are unaware of the correct signals. Existing products which deal with these issues lack simplicity and are unattractive.

The Jetpack offers a a safer way to ride with a handle-bar mounted controller that enables the user to indicate with a flick of a switch. The controller connects to the indicators wirelessesly, eliminating annoying cables and is synced when turned on. To sync the controller is first turned on where the connection light flashes. The indicator on button is then held until both connection lights cease to flash and become constant.

The indicator lights are constructed from acrylic light pipe providing a 360o projection while at the same time remaining flexible so that it can deal with the occasional bump. They are also removable so, when they begin to loose their form over time, can be replaced. The indicator is attached to the rear seat post by a silicon strap. Both units are USB rechargeable.

Take OFFThe concept of these devices emerged from science fiction in the 1920s and popularised in the 1960s as the technology became a reality. Until now, the only practical use of the jet pack has been extra-vehicular activity for astronauts. Like a warm winters coat, Jetpack offers safety and style preventing riders from feeling the cold metal fender against their legs as they are swiped from the side at lights.

OPERATING FRAMESThe Jetpack is operated by a 3 way rocker switch mounted onto the handle-bar. When turning the rear light dims to make the visual effect of the indicators more prominent.

PACkAGINGThe packaging is constructed from a pressed recycled paper pulp with a plastic film to seal the product and display marketing prints and user information. To minimise packaging both left and right acrylic light pipes come detached from the main body. Instructions are provided to the user on how to re-attach them in assembly. Front decals are printed with vegetable inks. This ensures that the product remains as environmentally friendly as possible while at the same time displaying the Jet Packs in a hip way.
