Double-Deck Vehicle Chassis Support Segmentation
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current methods lack a comprehensive and sophisticated process for assembling double-deck vehicle bodies, as the U-shaped chassis of double-deck vehicles cannot be supported by existing single-deck chassis supports, leading to instability and potential collapse during assembly.
Innovation Solution
A system comprising a vehicle body chassis support with crossbeams, end supports, and intermediate supports, along with an upper floor support, which includes adjustable components to fit the unique geometry of double-deck chassis, ensuring stability and rigidity during assembly.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Device complexity
If a single-deck chassis support is used for double-deck vehicle assembly, then the support structure is simple, but the U-shaped middle portion of the double-deck chassis cannot be properly supported and will be interfered with
Solution Approach 1:
The chassis support is divided into multiple independent support components: end supports positioned at both ends of the chassis and an intermediate support positioned at the middle U-shaped portion. Each support can be independently adjusted to match the specific geometry of the double-deck chassis, allowing proper support of the U-shaped middle section without interference while maintaining overall structural simplicity
Solution Approach 2:
The support system incorporates adjustable mechanisms that allow the position and height of each support component to be dynamically modified. This enables the support structure to adapt to different double-deck chassis configurations and ensure stable support during the assembly process, resolving the conflict between simple structure and reliable support
2Device complexity
If the middle portion of the flat chassis support is used to support double-deck chassis, then the support structure is simple, but the middle portion will interfere with the U-shaped vehicle body chassis
Solution Approach 1:
The support system separates the middle support function from the end support functions by using distinct intermediate support components. This segmentation allows the intermediate support to be specifically designed and positioned to match the U-shaped geometry of the double-deck chassis middle section, eliminating interference while keeping the overall support configuration straightforward
Solution Approach 2:
The intermediate support acts as a mediator between the flat chassis support structure and the U-shaped vehicle body chassis. It is specifically designed to fit into and support the U-shaped middle portion without causing interference, enabling feasible assembly operations while maintaining structural simplicity
