12、it One Structure of Automobile Lesson 1 Fundamentals of Automobile Today?s average car contains more than 15,000 separate,individual parts that must work together.These parts can be grouped into four major categories:engine,body,chassis and electrical equipment(Fig.1.1).Fig.1.1 Layout of a modern au
13、tomobile 1 Engine The engine acts as the power unit.The internal combustion engine is most common:this obtains its power by burning a liquid fuel inside the engine cylinder.There are two types of engine:gasoline(also called a spark-ignition engine)and diesel(also called a compression-ignition engine
14、).Both engines are called heat engines;the burning fuel generates heat which causes the gas inside the cylinder to increase its pressure and supply power to rotate a shaft connected to the transmission 1.2 Body An automobile body is a sheet metal shell with windows,doors,a hood,and a trunk deck buil

17、clutch,gearbox,propellor shaft,rear axle and differential and the driven road wheels.Clutch The clutch or torque converter has the task of disconnecting and connecting the engine?s power from and to the driving wheels of the vehicle 2.This action may be manual or automatic.Gearbox The main purpose o
18、f the gearbox is to provide a selection of gear ratios between the engine and driving wheels,so that the vehicle can operate satisfactorily under all driving conditions 3.Gear selection may be done manually by the driver or automatically by a hydraulic control system.Propellor Shaft The function of
19、the propellor(drive)shaft is to transmit the drive from the gearbox to the input shaft of the rear axle and differential assembly.Flexible joints 3 allow the rear axle and wheels to move up and down without affecting operation.Rear Axle and Differential The rear axle and differential unit transmits
20、the engine?s rotational power through 90o from propshaft to axle shaft to road wheels 4.A further function is to allow each driven wheel to turn at a different speed;essential when cornering because the outer wheel must turn further than the inside wheel.A third function is to introduce another gear
21、 ratio for torque multiplication.3.2 Suspension The axles and wheels are isolated from the chassis by a suspension system.The basic job of the suspension system is to absorb the shocks caused by irregular road surfaces that would otherwise be transmitted to the vehicle and its occupants,thus helping
22、 to keep the vehicle on a controlled and level course,regardless of road conditions 5.3.3 Steering The steering system,under the control of the driver at the steering wheel,provides the means by which the front wheels are directionally turned.The steering system may be power assisted to reduce the e
23、ffort required to turn the steering wheel and make the vehicle easier to manoeuvre.3.4 Brakes The braking system on a vehicle has three main functions.It must be able to reduce the speed of the vehicle,when necessary;it must be able to stop the car in as short a distance as possible;it must be able
24、to hold the vehicle stationary.The braking action is achieved as a result of the friction developed by forcing a stationary surface(the brake lining)into contact with a rotating surface(the drum or disc).Each wheel has a brake assembly,of either the drum type or the disc type,hydraulically operated

37、as an internal combustion(IC)engine.In the IC engine,an air-fuel mixture is introduced into a closed cylinder where it is compressed and then ignited.The burning of the fuel(combustion)causes a rapid rise in cylinder pressure which is converted to useful mechanical energy by the piston and crank-sha
38、ft.The fuel may be ignited either by a spark or by compression giving rise to classifications of spark-ignition(SI)and compression-ignition(CI)engines1.An sectional engine view of a typical spark ignition petrol engine is shown in Fig.2.1,detailing the major components.The four strokes of such an en
39、gine are shown in Fig.2.2.At the beginning of the induction stroke(Fig.2.2a),the inlet valve opens and the piston travels down the cylinder from top dead centre(TDC)to bottom dead centre(BDC).The partial vacuum created by the moving piston causes the air-fuel mixture to rush in from the inlet manifo
40、ld and through the open valve,into the cylinder.The correct air-fuel mixture is provided by the carburetor.When the piston reaches the end of its stroke the inlet valve closes,sealing the top end of the cylinder as both valves are closed.In Fig.2.2b the piston is moving up the cylinder,compressing t
41、he air-fuel mixture between the piston and cylinder head to a very small volume the compression stroke.Just before TDC an electrical spark,generated across the electrodes of the spark plug,ignites the air-fuel mixture.For good performance the timing of the spark must be closely controlled.As the mix
42、ture burns,the hot gas expands causing a rapid and extreme rise in cylinder pressure,to such an extent that the piston is forced down the cylinder and the connecting rod gives the crankshaft a powerful turning effort2.This is the combustion stroke,also called the power stroke,shown in Fig.2.2c.Once
43、the mixture has been burned it must be removed from the cylinder as quickly as possible3.In the exhaust stroke(Fig.2.2d)the rising piston pushes the hot gases and combustion products out of the cylinder through the open exhaust valve and exhaust system into the earth?s atmosphere.8 Fig.2.1 Sectional

46、y flywheel which is connected to the crankshaft.Note that the crankshaft rotates through two full revolutions for each four-stroke cycle and a spark occurs only once in the cylinder5.In a multicylinder engine,power strokes of each cylinder are staggered so that power is delivered almost continuously
47、 to the crankshaft for a smooth operation.2 Mixture Supply System Fuel stored in a large tank,is fed via a pump to the carburetor.The carburetor(Fig.2.3)mixes the liquid petrol with filtered air on its way to the cylinders and in the Fig.2.3 Basic fuel supply system process turns it into a vapor.The
48、 inlet manifold(Fig.2.4)directs the mixture to the cylinders.The ratio of air to fuel in the mixture delivered to the cylinder is controlled by the size and shape of the carburetor bore and venturi,and the size of the fuel metering jets.The standard manual control for the amount of air and fuel mixt
49、ure delivered to the engine is the throttle valve,which is controlled by the driver?s depression of the accelerator pedal.The throttle valve is simply a round disc,mounted on a thin pivot shaft so shat it can be tilted at different angles under the control of the accelerator pedal6.In the vertical p
50、osition the throttle valve offers virtually no restriction and the full volume of air and fuel passes to the cylinders to produce 10 maximum engine power.As the throttle valve moves towards the horizontal position the airflow is restricted(throttled)and engine power and speed is reduced accordingly.
