9 results about "Monocoque" patented technology

Monocoque (/ˈmɒnəˌkɒk, -ˌkoʊk/), also structural skin, is a structural system where loads are supported through an object's external skin, similar to an egg shell. The word monocoque is a French term for "single shell" or (of boats) "single hull". First used in boats, a true monocoque carries both tensile and compressive forces within the skin and can be recognised by the absence of a load-carrying internal frame.

Aerodynamic Sculpted Monocoque

Disclosed is an aerodynamic monocoque chassis for a vehicle, the aerodynamic monocoque chassis comprising: a main compartment bounded by a plurality of walls and a floor extending between the walls, the floor comprising: a first region, the first region being located at least partially under a pedal footbox of the vehicle; and a second region, the second region located rearwards of the first region; wherein the second region is located lower than the first region thereby forming a void under an underside of the first region.

Monocoque composite structure

The application provides a whole type reinforced composite vehicle body structure, which is characterized by the following: T-shaped longitudinal reinforcing members are arranged in the length direction of the vehicle body to load a vehicle head cover, a vehicle roof and a vehicle side wall plate; ring-shaped cap-shaped transverse reinforcing members are arranged in the width direction of the vehicle body; the longitudinal reinforcing members and the transverse reinforcing members are integrally formed with the outer wall plate skin through a co-curing / co-bonding process; the roof and the side wall plate are connected through longitudinal joints in the length direction of the vehicle body by using T-shaped longitudinal reinforcing members; the transverse reinforcing members are sleeved outside the transverse reinforcing members of the roof and the side wall plate and connected into an integral load-bearing frame by using cap-shaped transverse reinforcing members; the vehicle head cover and the vehicle body are fixedly connected in the ring-shaped connecting area; and the composite vehicle body and the aluminum alloy underframe are fixedly connected in the connecting area. The application improves the integrity of the vehicle body structure, integrally forms the vehicle body structure through the co-curing / co-bonding process, reduces the workload of subsequent assembly, improves the production efficiency of large parts, and reduces the manufacturing cost.

A racing car aerodynamic device with posture self-adaptive function

This invention relates to the field of aerodynamics and provides a racing car aerodynamic device with attitude adaptive function. It includes a monocoque casing and further comprises: a front wing adjustment device, including: a front suspension motion structure for driving the front wing drive mechanism; a front wing drive mechanism for adjusting the angle of attack of the front wing flaps; a front wing including front wing flaps; and a rear wing adjustment device, including: a rear suspension motion structure for driving the rear wing drive mechanism; a rear wing drive mechanism for adjusting the angle of attack of the rear wing flaps; and a rear wing including rear wing flaps, an inner bulkhead, and a rear wing endplate. The rear wing flaps are disconnected by the inner bulkhead, and the rear wing flaps are rotatably connected to the rear wing endplate. This invention can suppress the shift of the wind pressure center under braking conditions, reduce aerodynamic drag under acceleration conditions, and improve the handling stability of the racing car at high speeds under roll conditions; it also reduces the attitude sensitivity of the racing car's aerodynamics.

Low-floor monocoque aluminum body chassis and assembly method

This invention discloses a low-floor all-aluminum vehicle chassis, consisting of a front axle, a central battery compartment, and a rear axle module connected sequentially. The central section is low, while the sides are higher, with a height difference of 240–250 mm. The load-bearing frame of the central battery compartment connects the crossbeams and longitudinal beams via mortise and tenon joints, forming a grid-like inner frame and three battery compartments, upon which the floor is mounted. The front and rear axle modules are connected to the frame and crossbeams via mortise and tenon joints, supplemented by mechanical reinforcement. This invention employs a three-segment all-aluminum height-difference structure, achieving lightweight, high rigidity, and high battery capacity synergistically for a 6-meter-class Class I low-floor minibus. The grid-like inner frame formed by the central grid-like mortise and tenon joints enhances rigidity and optimizes force transmission, while also forming three battery compartments, increasing battery capacity from 71 kWh to 105 kWh, significantly extending range. The all-aluminum design reduces weight by over 1 / 3, lowering energy consumption. The modular design improves assembly precision and efficiency, overcoming the technical bottleneck of adapting all-aluminum structures to Class I low-floor designs, providing an accessible, low-carbon, and highly reliable microbus chassis solution.

Monocoque frame structure of inspection drone

This invention provides an inspection drone used for inspecting confined spaces that prevents snagging on obstacles, is lightweight and highly rigid, and facilitates parts replacement. [Solution] The inspection drone is equipped with a monocoque frame made of polycarbonate resin. The monocoque frame is composed of two parts: a top part 1 and a bottom part 2. The two parts are fitted together and integrated by a claw-shaped engagement structure 3. In addition, the outer circumference of the frame is made into a continuous curved shape to reduce snagging on obstacles.
