VEHICLE CHASSIS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18218472 titled 'VEHICLE CHASSIS

The abstract describes a patent application for a vehicle chassis that includes rear side members and a cross member manufactured using different processes.

  • Rear side members are cast in a casting process and extend longitudinally on the rear floor of the vehicle.
  • A cross member, manufactured through an extrusion process, extends transversely and is inserted into a mold during the casting of the rear side members.
  • Both ends of the cross member are connected to the rear side members on each side of the vehicle.

Potential Applications: - Automotive industry for vehicle chassis construction - Manufacturing of vehicles with improved structural integrity

Problems Solved: - Enhances the strength and durability of the vehicle chassis - Simplifies the manufacturing process by combining different production methods

Benefits: - Increased safety for vehicle occupants - Cost-effective production process - Enhanced overall performance of the vehicle

Commercial Applications: "Advanced Vehicle Chassis Construction for Enhanced Safety and Performance"

Questions about the technology: 1. How does the combination of casting and extrusion processes improve the vehicle chassis construction? 2. What are the specific advantages of connecting the cross member to the rear side members in this manner?


Original Abstract Submitted

A vehicle chassis includes a pair of rear side members disposed on a rear floor of a vehicle so as to extend in a longitudinal direction of the vehicle while being spaced apart in a transverse direction of the vehicle. The pair of rear side members is manufactured in a casting process A cross member is configured to extend in the transverse direction of the vehicle and is manufactured in an extrusion process. The cross member is inserted into a mold when the rear side members are cast such that both ends of the cross member are connected to the rear side members disposed on both sides, respectively.
