Embodiment Construction

[0027] FIG. 1 shows a schematic view of the front area of ​​a car with a front member 2. The underside of the front area faces the lane in the normal towing of the car. During towing, a bottom airflow is formed between the underside of the car and the lane. In addition, the wheel 1 of the front axle of the automobile is schematically shown in FIG. 1, wherein the wheel 1 is arranged in a wheel cover 9 which is only schematically shown. The wheel 1 is equipped with at least one wheel brake not shown in detail. On the bottom side of the front area, a channel 3 is provided in front of the wheel 1. This channel 3 is substantially aligned with the bottom surface 8 of the front area of ​​the automobile in the first position shown in FIG. 1.

[0028] The passage 3 is rotatably supported around a rotating shaft 4, and can be switched to the first position schematically shown in FIG. 1 figure 2 The second position is shown schematically in. As shown by the double arrow B (see FIG. 1), the ...

Abstract

The invention relates to a vehicle having a front area; the bottom side of the front area facing to the roadway is provided with a channel (3) for supplying cooling air to wheel brakes (7) of the vehicle. The channels (3) are provided with a closed profile and configured to rotate between the first position and the second position along a rotation shaft (4); wherein, the channels (3) in the first position align with a floor space (8) within a front region of the vehicle. The channels (3) in the second position supply the cooling air to the wheel brakes (7). According to the invention, the effective cooling air satisfying the demand is supplied to the wheel brakes of the vehicle.

Description

Technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an automobile having a front area. In the front area, a channel for introducing cooling air to the wheel brakes of the automobile is provided on the bottom side facing the lane. Background technique [0002] For example, the automobile mentioned at the beginning is known from DE 35 42 376 A1. The automobile described here has a front member that is connected to an air conduction channel for cooling the brake, wherein the air conduction channel and the front member are integrally formed, and each of the air conduction channels There is a groove open to the lane at least in one area of ​​its longitudinal extension. The air conduction channel described in DE 35 42 376 A1 increases the air resistance of the vehicle. In addition, it also has a negative effect due to the increase in fuel consumption and the increase in noise. [0003] In order to reduce the air resistance when the brake does not need to be cooled, DE 42 29 945 B4 ...
