CHECKING CHASSIS FRAME USING PLUMB BOB

-


AIM:
CHECKING CHASSIS FRAME BY USING A PLUMB BOB

TOOLS REQUIRED

1. PLUMB BOB
2. MEASURING TAPE
3. MALLET
4. BALL PEEN HAMMER
5. RIVETS & GUN

MATERIALS REQUIRED

1. MANUFACTURER'S DIAGRAM
2. CHALK PIECE
3. COTTON WASTE 

PROCEDURE

1. Check the chassis frame visually for cracks and major damage. If any major damage is found send the chasis frame for repair.

2. Mark a diagram on the floor according to the manufacturer's specification (in-line and diagonal).

3. Place the frame on the floor of the diagram.

4. Check the diagonal and in-line measurement of the frame on the floor.

5. If the frame is bent or twisted its side members (1) and cross-member's (2) points will not align with the floor diagram. If the deviation found is more than the specified limits of the manufacturer, send the frame for repair.

6. Place the frame on the horse support and coincide the same with the floor diagram.

7. Make a number of plumb bob point (3) marks, where the plumb bob point touches on the ground.

8. Mark the diagram where the plumb bob touches, and make a diagram.

9. Compare the plumb bob's diagram with the manufacturer's diagram.

10. By using a plumb bob measure the height of the frame from the floor at different places.

11. If there is any difference between the heights then the frame has sagging. Send it for repair.

12. Inspect the rivets of the frame by hitting with a ball pein hammer. Loose rivets will give a dull sound; change the particular rivets or send the frame for repair.

RESULT

The checking of chassis frame done successfully.

ENGINE COMPONENTS 1. CYLINDER BLOCK      The cylinder block is the main body of the engine. Cylinder head is mounted on the cylinder block. It houses iniet and exhaus valves. Crank case is attached to the bottom of the cylinder block. Crank case supports the crank shaft. Oil pan is attached to the bottom of the crank case. Cylinder block contains large cylindrical holes called cylinder bore. The cylinders are accurately finished to accommodate pistons. The space above the piston inside the cylinder at TDC called the combustion chamber. Combustion of fuel inside this space, high pressure and temperature will be developed inside the cylinder. Therefore, it should be made of material which can resist high pressure and temperature (2800°C). In water jackets has around the cylinders for the circulation cooling water to absorb the temperature while running of an engine. 2. CYLINDER HEAD Cylinder head is a separate casting placed on top of the cylinder block by studs and nuts. It houses the i

Engine : It acts as the power unit. The internal combustion engine is the most commonly used in automobiles. It is of two types ; (i) Spark ignition (ii) Compression ignition.         Both engines are called heat engines. A steam engine is an external combustion engine because the fuel is burned outside the engine. The principle of working of an external combustion engine is shown in the figure below. COMPARISON BETWEEN INTERNAL AND EXTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINES      The internal combustion engine is an engine in which the combustion of a fuel occurs with an oxidizer (usually air) in a combustion chamber. In an internal combustion engine the expansion of the high temperature and pressure gases, which are produced by the combustion, directly applies force to a movable component of the engine, such as the pistons and by moving it over a distance, generate useful mechanical energy.          The internal combustion engine is quite different from external combustion engines, such
