ABSTRACT:
An inertia flywheel assembly for a dynamometer is portable and provides for accurate testing of the performance of automotive vehicles. In a motorcycle application a flywheel (15) is mounted between swing arms (14) and supported on axle (18) by eccentric adjusting spacers (22), support section (20), and flywheel bearings (21). The flywheel (15) is driven by the motorcycle drive chain (13) and drive sprocket (12). Flywheel speed and acceleration data is provided to the dynamometer by flywheel sensor (27). The motorcycle can be started using starter motor (24). The flywheel assembly is supported by support structure (16) and is portable using transport wheels (17).
