Fender Design
FENDER:
A fender is part of a car that protects and frames its wheels and protects tires and braking systems from mud or other impurities to make them safer and more efficient.
Fenders also help prevent mud, dirt, dust particles and other liquids from being thrown into the air when the tires are rolling.
TYPES OF FENDER:
- Full Bumper Type
- Half Bumper Type
There are 5 areas of mounting are following,
- A-Pillar Mounting
- Body Mounting
- Sill Mounting
- Bumper Mounting
- Drip Mounting
AIM: Our aim for this project is to create mountings for the fender from the fender skin panel which is provided as an input surface to us according to the master section sketch.
MASTER SECTION SKETCH
DRIP MOUNTING:
Drip area mounting is an important part of the fender. This mounting is attached to the engine compartment of the car. The fender drip area is mounted via weld nuts to the engine compartment. A minimum of 150mm distance is kept from the front side and a distance of 300mm or less can be kept on the rear side.
BUMPER MOUNTING:
A-PILLAR MOUNTING:
SILL MOUNTING:
Conclusion:
Developed the Drip, Bumper, Sill, A-pillar and Baffle mounting areas by design requirements of the fender design.
