Assignment Task: Vehicle chassis and frame design
Conceptual design of chassis
Design Concept 1 for Chassis
1. Based on drive train, battery placement, in hub motor placement, suspension system placement, braking system and steering system placement we have to develop our own conceptual design for chassis.
2. Drive Train: Types of drive train (FWD, RWD and AWD)and some lines about it and figures. Select AWD from it. And answer why we are using AWD and what are the advantages of using AWD rather than other two.
3. Battery placement: what types of batteries are present and select one from them and answer where we are going to place our battery with figure and why we are using that type of battery over other types? And mention specs of it.
4. In hub motor or motor with transmission placement: Specifications about in hub motor or motor with transmission with figures. Figure should be like battery placement from above and motor placement.
5. Suspension system placement: Types of suspension systems we have and then
Front suspension systems: Types of it and select one from them and answer why we have selected this particular front suspension over other suspensions.
Rear suspension systems: Types of it and select one from them and answer why we have selected this particular rear suspension over other suspensions. And where we are placing the selected suspension system with figure. Figure should be like battery placement and motor placement from above continuing with front and then going to rear suspension placement.
6. Brake system placement: Types of suspension systems we have and then Front brake systems
Steering system: Types of steering systems and select on which is suitable for all those above 6 placements. FOR DESIGN CONCEPT 1 FOR CHASSIS WE USE DESIGN CONCEPT 1 OF STEERING SYSTEM WITH FIGURE..And where we are placing the selected steering system with figure. Figure should be like battery placement and motor placement from above continuing with front & rear suspension placement. Then going to front brake system placement and then to rear brake system. Finally, we place our selected steering system.
Discuss advantages and disadvantages and finalize the suitable design to follow and build our own chassis design.
