SUPPORT STRUCTURE FOR VEHICLE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17797582 titled 'SUPPORT STRUCTURE FOR VEHICLE

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a support structure for a vehicle that includes various attachment portions and ribs. The first rib connects the damper attachment portion with the tie-rod attachment portion, the second rib connects the tie-rod attachment portion with the lower arm attachment portion, and the third rib connects the first rib with the second rib. The first rib is inclined and gradually decreases in height from the damper attachment portion to the tie-rod attachment portion, while the third rib is also inclined and gradually decreases in height from the second rib to the first rib.

  • The support structure is designed to provide stability and support for a vehicle.
  • The first rib is inclined to create a gradual decrease in height, forming an inclined portion and a thinned portion.
  • The third rib is also inclined to create a gradual decrease in height, forming another inclined portion and thinned portion.

Potential Applications

  • Automotive industry: The support structure can be used in various types of vehicles, such as cars, trucks, and SUVs.
  • Suspension systems: The design of the support structure can enhance the performance and stability of suspension systems in vehicles.

Problems Solved

  • Improved stability: The support structure helps to provide stability to the vehicle, especially during maneuvers and uneven road conditions.
  • Enhanced suspension performance: The design of the support structure can contribute to better suspension performance, resulting in improved handling and comfort for the vehicle occupants.

Benefits

  • Increased safety: The support structure enhances the stability of the vehicle, reducing the risk of accidents and improving overall safety.
  • Improved ride quality: The support structure's design can lead to better suspension performance, resulting in a smoother and more comfortable ride for the occupants.
  • Enhanced vehicle performance: The support structure contributes to improved handling and maneuverability of the vehicle, enhancing its overall performance.


Original Abstract Submitted

A support structure for a vehicle includes: a body portion (); a damper attachment portion (); a tie-rod attachment portion (); and a lower arm attachment portion (). The vehicle supporting structure () has a first rib () that connects the damper attachment portion () with the tie-rod attachment portion (), a second rib () that connects the tie-rod attachment portion () and the lower arm attachment portion (), and a third rib () that connects the first rib with the second rib. The first rib is inclined to have a height that gradually decreases from the damper attachment portion toward the tie-rod attachment portion, forming a first inclined portion () and a first thinned portion (). The third rib is inclined to have a height that gradually decreases from the second rib toward the first rib, forming a second inclined portion () and a second thinned portion ().
