description: The process of changing a five-lug nut vehicle wheel can be time consuming and dangerous in certain circumstances. The group has decided to take on the challenge of 3D modeling, testing, and prototyping a designed device that we believe will help vehicle owners with a five-lug nut wheel vehicle, remove and replace their own wheels. Through SolidWorks software the group was able to conduct specific stress tests, motions analysis tests, and weight analysis of the prototyped design. The group hopes to have similar storing capabilities of those devices within a traditional tire repair kit in a vehicles spare tire wheel well. The Multi-Lug Nut Wrench is a device that helps assist automobile owners in the tire removal and replacement process. The group has designed a prototype that will fit to a five-lug nut tire with adjustable capabilities to fit any range of pitch circular diameter. This prototype was designed to provide the proper amount of torque to each of the lug nuts to securely fasten the car tire back into place with minimal effort by the user. After 3D modeling the device and conducting the appropriate simulations, the group discovered that the model we have designed on SolidWorks does not meet the requirement we were looking for due to the outsourced gear CAD files from McMaster-Carr. The CAD files created to large and to heavy of a device for it to functioned as hoped but the group has researched alternative manufacturing ideas with different materials to determine the appropriate material composition of the device. With the advancements made in the additive manufacturing industry, the group strongly believes that the device is possible to construct. The functionality of the device in an applied setting has not been determined due to the inability to test a physical prototype.
