Knowledge Base
*Note:
Semi-load-bearing body is a body structure between non-load-bearing body and load-bearing body, wherein the body is
rigidly connected with the base frame by means of welding or bolts so as to reinforce the base frame and make the base
frame partially play the role of vehicle frame. For example, the engine and suspension are mounted on the reinforced
base frame, and body is integrated with the base frame so as to jointly bear load. This structure is essentially a
frameless load-bearing body structure. Therefore, the body structure generally falls in non-load-bearing body and load-
bearing body.

Compared with the body structure commonly adopted on other vehicles of the same class of which the upper
portion is separated from the lower portion, the load-bearing body lays a firm foundation for the performance
and collision resistance of the vehicle. As for load-bearing body, high-strength steel is used in its structure. In
the past, only a few high-strength steel was used on vehicle, and most of it was in the form of the short steel

Tow Anti-collision Steel Beams in Each

Design Concept
It is well known that, when a vehicle is involved in a lateral collision, its doors may deform under impact, so that the occupants may
get directly injured. In order to improve the safety of the vehicle, two firm steel beams, commonly called as side door anti-collision bar,
are mounted in each of the four doors of Geely CK.
Safety Protection
The role of anti-collision bar is as follows: When the side door is collided, the firm anti-collision bar will greatly reduce the
deformation of the side door, so as to reduce the injury incurred by occupants. This is also the safe equipment only available on
high-end cars.
24
Safety — 5. ABS+EBD
Role of ABS
ABS is the abbreviation of anti-lock brake system. At first, ABC was used on airplane, and now it has become the standard equipment of high-end
cars. It is well known that, when braking the vehicle, the brake pedal can’t be pushed down with one step, rather, the braking operation should be
carried out in several steps, with the brake pedal pushed down and released in turn, until the vehicle finally stops. In the course of emergency braking,
however, it is always necessary to stop the vehicle immediately, and it is very desirable that the vehicle can be stopped with one step. In such case,
owing to the fact that the wheel may be locked up and stop rotating, the vehicle may be involved in dangerous situation, such as loss of turning ability
caused by locked front wheels and rear-end whipping caused by locked rear wheels. ABS is mounted for the purpose of settling the problem that
wheels may be locked up in the course of braking operation. A vehicle equipped with ABS can effectively maintain the wheels in rotating state rather
than locked up, so that the stability of vehicle in the course of braking operation and the braking performance of vehicle under poor road conditions
are greatly improved.
Operating Principle
ABS continuously detects the rotating speed of each wheel with the help of the rotating speed sensor mounted on each wheel or transmission shaft,
calculates the slip ratio of each wheel through a computer (whether a wheel is locked up is judged on the basis of skip ratio), compares the
calculated value with the ideal skip ratio, decides to increase or decrease the brake pressure, and then orders the actuating mechanism to adjust the
brake pressure in a timely manner, so as to maintain the wheels under ideal braking conditions. Therefore, ABS can get the wheels always braked
under the condition that slight skip occurs rather than locked up, so as to achieve the goal of improving the braking performance.

Streamlined Body
Knowledge Base
What is streamlined body
The modern vehicle designers, by adopting the aerodynamic principles, design the curve of vehicle body as clear and smooth as
possible, so that the air current will be changed or directed, the head-on air current will bypass the body easily, and thus the air
resistance will be reduced and the stability of the vehicle will be enhanced. This kind of body of which the air resistance coefficient is
very small can be called as streamlined body.
Streamlined bodies vary from each other in streamline extent, which is generally expressed by streamline coefficient. The half value of
wind resistance coefficient CD is taken as the value of streamline coefficient C. If the wind resistance coefficient of a vehicle is 0.30,
then its streamline coefficient is 0.15. Just like the wind resistance coefficient, the lower the streamline coefficient is, the better the
vehicle is.
The streamlined body can not only reduce the wind resistance, but also beautify the appearance and make the vehicle more dynamic.
Therefore, more and more cars adopt the streamlined body.
The earliest streamlined vehicle in the world is the Airflow car launched by Chrysler in 1934. The outline of this car was designed
strictly in accordance with the aerodynamic principles, and this car was even tested in wind tunnel as if it is a airplane. Since then,
automobile manufacturers realized that the streamlined vehicle has great potential, and more and more streamlined vehicles are put
into the market.
