How to maintain a car chassis?

The chassis is an important component of the overall structure of the car.

The chassis refers to the combination of four parts on the car: the transmission system, the driving system, the steering system, and the braking system. It supports and installs the car engine and its components, forming the overall shape of the car, bearing the engine's power, and ensuring normal driving.

For many years, the corrosion and collision issues of the chassis have been largely overlooked. Acid rain, exhaust, de-icing agents, and gravel constantly erode and damage them. How can we protect our chassis? "Chassis sealing" has emerged in a timely manner. It involves carefully cleaning and degreasing the chassis, then spraying a thick layer of high-adhesion, high-elasticity, high-corrosion-resistant, and rust-proof flexible epoxy resin and other synthetic plastics onto the chassis, isolating it from the outside world to achieve anti-corrosion, anti-rust, anti-collision, and noise reduction effects. A single "sealing" lasts a lifetime.

Balanced suspension type

To address the potential issues mentioned above, multi-axle vehicles typically use a balanced suspension structure. A balancing mechanism is hinged on the frame between the two axles (such as the middle and rear axles in a three-axle vehicle). This way, when one wheel is lifted, the rotation of the balancing mechanism will lower the other wheel. If the two arms of the balancing mechanism are of equal length, it can ensure that the vertical loads on the two axles are equal under any circumstances, thus preventing the phenomenon of one wheel being suspended and unequal vertical loads on the two axles.

What is the function of the tensioner?

The function of the tensioner is to adjust the tightness of the timing belt. It is generally replaced together with the timing belt to avoid future concerns. Other parts do not necessarily need to be replaced. Regular maintenance is sufficient.

What are the classifications of balance shafts?

The dual balance shaft uses a chain drive to rotate two balance shafts. One of the balance shafts rotates at the same speed as the engine, which can eliminate the first-order vibrations of the engine; the other balance shaft rotates at twice the speed of the engine, which can eliminate the second-order vibrations of the engine, achieving an ideal vibration reduction effect. The dual balance shaft method is relatively complex, has high costs, and occupies a large space in the engine, typically used in large displacement motorcycles.
