Utility vehicle
A utility vehicle includes a frame having a front section, a midsection, and a rear section, the frame defining a cab rearward of the front section. The utility vehicle further includes a plurality of body panels including a hood, a first side panel, and a second side panel coupled to the front section of the frame. Additionally, the utility vehicle includes an engine supported by the frame and operably coupled to the ground engaging members. A cooling assembly of the utility vehicle is fluidly coupled to the engine and supported on a top surface of the front section of the frame. The cooling assembly is angled relative to the longitudinal direction and spaced apart from a line of sight extending from the cab.
VEHICLE FRONT STRUCTURE
A vehicle front structure includes front side frames of right and left extending over a front-back direction of a vehicle, upper members provided in an outer side in a vehicle width direction of the front side frames and extending over the front-back direction of the vehicle; and connection frame extending over a space between a front end portion of the front side frame and a front end portion of the upper member, the connection frame includes; a diagonal reinforcement member extending forward from an outer side wall surface in the vehicle width direction of the front side frame while inclining toward the outer side in the vehicle width direction; a box-shaped reinforcement portion extending over a space between an inclination surface on the outer side of the diagonal reinforcement member and an inner side wall surface of the upper member and having a closed cross section.
Running Bare Chassis Assembly For Low-Floor Bus and Manufacturing Method Thereof
An embodiment running bare chassis assembly includes a front frame on which a front suspension is mounted, a rear frame assembly on which a battery carrier is mounted, wherein the rear frame assembly comprises, a first rear frame on which a rear suspension is mounted, a second rear frame coupled to the first rear frame and on which a radiator is mounted, and a battery carrier frame on which the battery carrier is mounted and which is coupled to the first rear frame through a second engagement, and a center frame coupled to the front frame and the rear frame assembly through a first engagement, wherein a stress distribution due to the first engagement is greater than a stress distribution due to the second engagement.
FRONT END MODULE ASSEMBLY
A front end module assembly has a front end module structure of a vehicle, a heat exchanger support and a first heat exchanger unit. The heat exchanger support is supported to the vehicle front end module structure. The heat exchanger support has an opening. The first heat exchanger unit is accommodated in the opening of the heat exchanger support so that the transmission cooler is supported to the vehicle front end module structure via the heat exchanger support.
Structural component
A motor vehicle front end having a structural component that has a first structural element for absorbing mechanical forces. The first structural element surrounds a spatial region, at least in part, such that a cavity is formed in the interior of the first structural element. The first structural element has a surface region that defines said cavity. The structural component has at least one second structural element which is connected to the first structural element. For the purpose of mechanical reinforcement of the first structural element, the structural component has at least one reinforcing element. The reinforcing element supports a portion of the surface region. The first structural element is composed of at least two separate structural element parts.
UTILITY VEHICLE
In one embodiment, a utility vehicle includes a plurality of ground-engaging members configured to contact a ground surface, and a powertrain assembly operably coupled to the ground-engaging members. The utility vehicle also includes a frame supported by the ground-engaging members and extending along a longitudinal axis of the utility vehicle. The utility vehicle further includes a tunnel member coupled to the frame and extending along the longitudinal axis. The tunnel member is positioned at a first height from the ground surface. Additionally, the utility vehicle includes a cargo portion supported by the frame and positioned generally rearward of the tunnel member. The cargo portion has a cargo surface substantially aligned with the tunnel member and positioned at a second height from the ground surface. The first height is approximately equal to the second height.
VEHICLE FRONT STRUCTURE
The vehicle front structure includes a bulkhead made of resin and provided at a vehicle front, hood lock mechanisms provided to an upper member of the bulkhead, and bulkhead upper stays respectively connected to left and right end portions of the upper member. The vehicle front structure includes metal patches as metal patch members formed integrally with respective end portions, in the vehicle width direction, of the bulkhead. The hood lock mechanisms are fixed to the respective metal patches, and the metal patches are linked to the respective upper stays.
Radiator support upper member assembly
A radiator support upper member assembly includes: an upper inner panel including an inner flange protruding toward a front direction, and an upper outer panel including an outer flange, wherein the outer flange protrudes toward the front direction and is configured to overlap the inner flange and form a front flange, and the upper inner panel and the upper outer panel are joined and form a closed cross-section.
RADIATOR SUPPORT UPPER MEMBER ASSEMBLY
A radiator support upper member assembly includes: an upper inner panel including an inner flange protruding toward a front direction, and an upper outer panel including an outer flange, wherein the outer flange protrudes toward the front direction and is configured to overlap the inner flange and form a front flange, and the upper inner panel and the upper outer panel are joined and form a dosed cross-section.
Vehicle body front structure
This vehicle body front structure includes a front side frame (14) which extends in a forward and rearward direction of a vehicle body, and a side wall member (52) which is provided outside the front side frame (14) in a vehicle width direction and joined to the front side frame (14), wherein the front side frame (14) has at least three folding portions, which include a first folding portion (24), a second folding portion (25), and a third folding portion (26) capable of being bent by an impact load (F1, F3) input from in front of a vehicle, in this order at intervals from a front toward a rear of the vehicle body, and has a reinforcing panel (65) which is provided between the second folding portion (25) and the third folding portion (26) among the side wall members (52), is stacked on a compression portion (81) on which a compressive force (F2, F4) acts from the impact load (F1, F3), and has a vertical bead (87).
