Designing and Development of Vehicle Towing system Using IoT

Abstract

Vehicle breakdowns caused by mechanical failures frequently occur on roads and often create traffic congestion, operational delays, and safety risks. In such situations, an efficient mechanism is required to move the damaged vehicle safely to the roadside without depending entirely on conventional towing services. This project focuses on the design and development of an Emergency Car Towing System capable of lifting and towing a vehicle from one location to another in a controlled and safe manner. The proposed system incorporates mechanical lifting and towing mechanisms to improve operational convenience and reduce manual effort. A three-dimensional model of the system was developed using CATIA V5 R20 software, and necessary design calculations were performed to validate structural and functional requirements. Based on the finalized design, components were selected and assembled to develop the towing mechanism. The proposed design was evaluated to examine its feasibility, operational performance, and suitability for emergency vehicle handling applications. The study demonstrates a practical, compact, and efficient approach for roadside vehicle recovery operations.
