VEHICLE BOTTOM STRUCTURE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240326925 titled 'VEHICLE BOTTOM STRUCTURE
The vehicle bottom structure described in the patent application includes a back floor bottom panel with a protrusion portion and a pair of wheel houses on the outer sides of the back floor bottom panel in the vehicle width direction. The protrusion portion is located centrally between the pair of wheel houses and protrudes upward in the vehicle up-down direction, featuring a longitudinal wall at the front end in the vehicle front-back direction. The longitudinal wall and the wheel houses are parallel in the vehicle width direction.
- The vehicle bottom structure includes a back floor bottom panel with a protrusion portion.
- A pair of wheel houses are positioned on the outer sides of the back floor bottom panel in the vehicle width direction.
- The protrusion portion is centrally located between the wheel houses and protrudes upward in the vehicle up-down direction.
- A longitudinal wall is present at the front end of the protrusion portion in the vehicle front-back direction.
- The longitudinal wall and the pair of wheel houses are parallel in the vehicle width direction.
Potential Applications: - Automotive industry for vehicle chassis design - Manufacturing of commercial vehicles - Off-road vehicles for enhanced ground clearance
Problems Solved: - Improved structural integrity of the vehicle bottom - Enhanced protection for undercarriage components - Better performance in rough terrain conditions
Benefits: - Increased durability and longevity of the vehicle - Enhanced off-road capabilities - Improved safety for undercarriage components
Commercial Applications: The technology can be utilized in the production of commercial vehicles, off-road vehicles, and other automotive applications where robust bottom structures are required for durability and performance.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does the protrusion portion enhance the overall performance of the vehicle? 2. What are the specific advantages of having a longitudinal wall in the protrusion portion?
