Overview Automobile Overview

Since the moment of its birth，automobile has had a strong influence on the history，economy，and social life of much of the world.Nowadays，modern automobile industry stands for the advance level of a nation\'s manufacturing industry development.Mass-production techniques，for instance，first developed for the automobile，have been adapted for use in nearly every industry.Meanwhile，dozens of industries depend，directly or indirectly，on the automobile.These industries include producers of steel and other metals，plastics，rubber，glass，fabrics，petroleum products，and electronic components.

◇Types of automobile

According to functionality，automobiles can be divided into several types，which are shown as Fig.1.

Fig.1 Types of Automobiles

◇Main system of automobile

Thousands of individual parts make up the essential components of the modern automobile.Much like the human body，these parts are arranged into several systems，each with a different function.Every system is necessary for driving the automobile，keeping it safe，and reducing noise and pollution.

Overall，these parts are arranged into four semi-independent categories：engine，body，chassis and electrical equipment，each with a different function.For example，the engine—the“heart”of the automobile—is comprised of pistons，cylinders，tubes which is used to deliver fuel to the cylinders，and other components.The overall structure of modern automobile is shown as Fig.2.

Fig.2 Over structure of the automobile

☆Engine

The engine operates on internal combustion，meaning the fuel used for its power is burned inside of the engine.Now that engine is a collection of advanced parts and systems that provide the driving force to get people down the road.Modern electronics and materials may have made engines more complicated，but the basic engine layout has not really changed over the years.Most automotive engines are located at the front of the vehicle and drive the wheels through a power train made up of gears，shafts，and other mechanical and hydraulic components.The four-stroke engine is the most common type of automobile engine.

☆Body

The body of the car is the outer shell that surrounds the mechanical parts and the passengers inside.Most bodies are made of steel，although some parts are made of strong plastic or carbon fiber.While the body forms the passenger compartment，offers storage space，and houses the automobile\'s systems，it has other important functions as well.In most instances，the solid structure of body protects passengers from the force of an accident.Other parts of the car，such as the front and hood，are designed to crumple easily，thereby absorbing much of the impact of a crash.A firewall between the engine and the interior of the car protects passengers in case of a fire.Lastly，the body\'s design helps to reduce the level of wind resistance as the car moves，allowing the driver better handling ability and improving the efficiency of the engine.

☆Chassis

The chassis is the framework to which the various parts of the automobile are mounted.The chassis must be strong enough to bear the weight of the car，yet somewhat flexible in order to sustain the shocks and tension caused by turning and road conditions.Attached to the chassis are the wheels and steering assembly，the brakes，the suspension and the body.

From the construction of itself，the chassis includes four following systems.

● Power train

A power train is a system of mechanical parts in a vehicle which transfer the energy created in the engine to the transmission.The transmission then takes the power，or output，through specific gear ratios，slows it and transmits it as torque.Through the driveshaft，the engine’s torque is transmitted to the wheels to move the car when applied to road.

● Steering system

The steering system converts the rotation of the steering wheel into a swiveling movement of the wheels in such a way that the steering-wheel rim turns a long way to move the road wheels a short way.

● Brake system

A brake is a device that uses a controlled force to reduce the speed or to stop a moving vehicle，or to hold the vehicle stationary.And modern automobiles have brakes（disc type or drum type）on all four wheels，operated by a hydraulic system.

● Running gear

The running gear of a modern vehicle comprises，in most instances，suspension，wheels and axle.As the most important part of running gear，the suspension system enables the automobile to absorb the bumps and variations in the road surface，keeping the automobile stable.And most cars feature independent front suspension（the two wheels in front are supported separately）.

☆Electrical Equipment

Electricity is used for many parts of the car，from the headlights to the radio，but the main function of it is to provide the electrical spark needed to ignite the fuel in the cylinders.The electrical equipment of automobiles is composed of power supply and some electronic devices，such as engine starting system and ignition system，etc.
