Book excerpt: Excerpt from Construction and Manufacture of Automobiles The following description of a 40 H. P. Automobile, built by the stevens-duryea Company, of Chicopee Falls, Mass may, except for certain important details which will be specifically mentioned, be taken as typical of the design of high-grade cars in general. In Fig. 1 is shown a side View of the Model Y, 40 horsepower, six-cylinder machine, with 36-inch wheels and 142-inch wheelbase. An automobile may be divided into two parts' - the body and the chassis. The former is the product of the carriage-maker's art, the latter of the mechanic's.

P. automobile, built by the Stevens-Duryea Company, of Chicopee Falls, Mass., may, except for certain important details which will be specifically mentioned, be taken as typical of the design of high-grade cars in general. In Fig. 1 is shown a side view of the "Model Y," 40 horsepower, six-cylinder machine, with 36-inch wheels and 142-inch wheel-base. An automobile may be divided into two parts - the body and the "chassis." The former is the product of the carriage-maker's art, the latter of the mechanic's and engineer's. The chassis of this machine is shown in Figs. 2 and 3, to which reference will now be made. The mechanism and body of the car are supported by a frame whose side members, of chrome-nickel steel, are shown at A. These are connected by four cross pieces, and are supported on the front and rear axles by the spring connections shown. The cross pieces are also pressed from chrome-nickel steel, and are hydraulically riveted to the side frames.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Automobile Construction and Repair: A Practical Guide to the Design, Construction, and Repair of Automobile Mechanisms Product of the best technical brains of the country. The engine has changed from the halting, wheezy. Unreliable con traption of fifteen years ago into a perfectly dependable. Well behaved, and sweet-running mechanism which carries its owner at high or low speed. In the heat of summer or the cold of winter. Over all sorts of road with exceedingly rare periods of distress or failure. The same evolution has taken place with each part of the automobile until practically all the changes in present-day models are simply refinements of the existing mechanisms. No expenditure of money or skill has been spared to make the automobile as near perfect as pos sible. As a result. It stands today one of our best examples of well-rounded development. A device which has had more to do with our progress in production manufacturing in the last ten years than any other single machine which could be men tioned. Therefore, it behooves those who are interested in this development to study the construction and design factors with great attention. Lessons are to be learned from the evolution of this device. From the failure of that design. And the study of near perfection is always profitable. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Automotive Development Processes written by Julian Weber and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2009-06-22 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The global crisis the automotive industry has slipped into over the second half of 2008 has set a fierce spotlight not only on which cars are the right ones to bring to the market but also on how these cars are developed. Be it OEMs developing new models, suppliers integerating themselves deeper into the development processes of different OEMs, analysts estimating economical risks and opportunities of automotive investments, or even governments creating and evaluating scenarios for financial aid for suffering automotive companies: At the end of the day, it is absolutely indispensable to comprehensively understand the processes of auto- tive development – the core subject of this book. Let’s face it: More than a century after Carl Benz, Wilhelm Maybach and Gottlieb Daimler developed and produced their first motor vehicles, the overall concept of passenger cars has not changed much. Even though components have been considerably optimized since then, motor cars in the 21st century are still driven by combustion engines that transmit their propulsive power to the road s- face via gearboxes, transmission shafts and wheels, which together with spri- damper units allow driving stability and ride comfort. Vehicles are still navigated by means of a steering wheel that turns the front wheels, and the required control elements are still located on a dashboard in front of the driver who operates the car sitting in a seat.
