How to maintain the chassis in summer?

The scorching of the ground in summer, the invasion of acid rain, and the impact of flying stones on gravel roads cause the car's chassis to rust. Exhaust fumes and noise can seep in through the corroded holes. "Chassis sealing" can thickly spray high-adhesion, high-elasticity, high-corrosion-resistant, and moisture-proof flexible rubber resin on the chassis, achieving anti-corrosion, anti-rust, and anti-collision effects, while also providing a certain degree of noise reduction, isolating some of the noise from below. "Chassis sealing" is different from the previous simple anti-rust treatment, which only involved applying a layer of grease to the chassis to isolate moisture, lasting only for a period of time. However, "chassis sealing" can firmly adhere to the chassis, and responsible dealers will promise free repairs if the vehicle experiences bottoming out after "sealing."

"Chassis sealing" (chassis armor operation) must be carried out in a dedicated workshop and cannot be performed in Others. It is important to note that construction is not suitable on rainy days. First, carefully remove oil stains from the chassis, using a special detergent to thoroughly eliminate asphalt and oil stains, and then dry it. Next, the rotating parts such as the drive shaft and the exhaust pipe, which need to dissipate heat, should be sealed with tape before spraying, otherwise, it will affect their normal operation. To enhance sound insulation and anti-collision effects, sealing must undergo a secondary spraying process, with a 20-minute interval, and the second spraying should be carried out after the first layer has dried.

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.

How to maintain a car chassis?

The chassis refers to the combination of four parts in a 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.
