Vehicle Load Distribution System - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17752098 titled 'Vehicle Load Distribution System
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes an embodiment vehicle load distribution system that includes various components such as a dash crossmember, front side members, and rear lower members. These components are arranged in a specific manner to distribute the load in a vehicle effectively.
- The embodiment vehicle load distribution system consists of a dash crossmember, front side members, and rear lower members.
- The dash crossmember is positioned in the vehicle's dashboard area.
- The front side members extend from the dash crossmember towards the front of the vehicle.
- The rear lower members extend from the dash crossmember towards the rear of the vehicle.
- The front end of each rear lower member is aligned with the rear end of a corresponding front side member.
Potential Applications:
- Automotive industry: This load distribution system can be applied in various types of vehicles, such as cars, trucks, and SUVs, to improve their load-bearing capabilities and overall stability.
- Commercial vehicles: The system can be particularly useful in commercial vehicles that often carry heavy loads, ensuring better weight distribution and reducing the risk of imbalance or damage.
Problems Solved:
- Uneven load distribution: The system addresses the issue of uneven load distribution in vehicles, which can lead to instability, reduced handling, and increased wear and tear on certain components.
- Imbalanced weight distribution: By aligning the front and rear members, the system helps to distribute the weight evenly throughout the vehicle, preventing excessive strain on specific areas.
Benefits:
- Improved stability: The load distribution system enhances the stability of the vehicle by evenly distributing the weight, reducing the risk of tipping or loss of control.
- Enhanced load-bearing capacity: By effectively distributing the load, the system allows vehicles to carry heavier loads without compromising safety or performance.
- Reduced wear and tear: The balanced weight distribution helps to minimize excessive strain on specific components, leading to reduced maintenance and longer lifespan of the vehicle.
Original Abstract Submitted
An embodiment vehicle load distribution system includes a dash crossmember, a pair of front side members extending from the dash crossmember toward a front of a vehicle, and a pair of rear lower members extending from the dash crossmember toward a rear of the vehicle, wherein a front end of each rear lower member is aligned with a rear end of a corresponding front side member.
