VEHICLE SKELETON STRUCTURE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240278841 titled 'VEHICLE SKELETON STRUCTURE
The patent application describes a vehicle skeleton structure that includes a die-cast skeleton body with a floor part forming a vehicle cabin floor portion and a side member extending towards the front or rear of the vehicle.
- The structure features a transverse concave bead at the leading end side of the side member, extending in the vehicle width or vertical direction.
- A longitudinal concave bead is formed at the base end side of the side member, extending in the vehicle front-rear direction.
Potential Applications: - Automotive industry for vehicle chassis construction - Manufacturing of lightweight and durable vehicle frames
Problems Solved: - Enhances structural integrity and rigidity of vehicle skeleton - Improves overall safety and stability of the vehicle
Benefits: - Increased strength and durability of vehicle frame - Enhanced safety features for passengers - Potential for lighter weight vehicles with improved fuel efficiency
Commercial Applications: - Automotive manufacturers looking to improve vehicle safety and performance - Companies specializing in vehicle frame design and construction
Questions about the technology: 1. How does the transverse concave bead contribute to the overall strength of the vehicle skeleton structure? 2. What are the potential cost implications of implementing this innovative design in vehicle manufacturing processes?
Frequently Updated Research: - Stay updated on advancements in die-cast technology for vehicle frame construction to enhance the design and performance of the skeleton structure.
Original Abstract Submitted
a vehicle skeleton structure, including: a die-cast skeleton body formed integrally and including a floor part configuring a vehicle cabin floor portion and a side member extending from the floor part towards a vehicle front or a vehicle rear; a transverse concave bead, the transverse concave bead being formed at a leading end side of the side member in the skeleton body, and the transverse concave bead extending in at least one of a vehicle width direction or a vehicle vertical direction; and a longitudinal concave bead, the longitudinal concave bead being formed at a base end side of the side member in the skeleton body, and the longitudinal concave bead extending in a vehicle front-rear direction.
