Different Types of Painting?



1. Spray paint

2. Hand paint 

Now-a-days spray paintings are largely use.

Reason for failures of paints?



1. Not proper cleaning of body before painting

2. Not covering dents or spots

3. Not using of proper good quality paint

4. Not applied the pretreatment with zinc phosphate

Main Constituents of automobile paints?

Requirements of Good Painting?



1. It should be anticorrosive nature.
 
2. It should protect the hidden parts also from the corrosion.
 
3. It should have esthetic appearance.
 
4. It should be smooth finish for stream lining.
 
5. It must reduce the aerodynamic drag. 

Automotive Painting



                  The corrosive nature of a metal used in a motor body construction, necessitate the application of an anti corrosion coating. For this reason the painting should be done. 
Function of Painting:
 
1. It reduces the corrosion and protect the vehicle body.
 
2. It is used for cleanliness.
 
3. It is used for esthetic appearance.
 
4. It is used to reduce the friction due to the aerodynamic drag and allow the vehicle in stream lining.

5. It is used for identification purpose.

Different methods to door lock or unlock mechanisms?

There are different methods to door lock or unlock mechanisms:

1. With a key

2. By pressing the unlock button inside the car

3. By using the combination lock on the outside of the door

4. By pulling up the knob on the inside of the door.

5. With a keyless – entry remote control.

6. By a signal from a control center.

Torsion Bar in suspension system?


Torsion Bar

              Torsion bar suspension is used in independent suspension system. It is a rod acting in torsion and taking shear stresses only. It is made up of heat treated alloy spring steel. This bar stores amount of energy nearly as same as coil spring. The bar is fixed at one end to the fr4ame, while the other end is fixed to the end of the wheel arm and supported in the bearing. The other end of the wheel arm connected to the wheel hub. When the wheel strikes a bump, it starts vibrating up and down, thus exerting torque on the torsion bar which acts as a spring.
