Hood design-Week 2
Hood design play major critical role in making sheild to engine, also protect from environmental behaviour including prevent accident from child to adults. In hood design calculation , major parameter concluds with height to angle, technically ground to striger,head to striger. Also includes thickness of upto 2mm, from outer pannel to inner pannel max will be 25mm.
Emboss gives more stiffenes , insince of emboss means in particluar space material will be elongated by by giving external force without deforming.Latch trajectory is main characteric playrole for hood design, distance from centre point of hinge axis to striger. we can say latch trajectory radius, its define gap between striger to axis of hinge, that radius gives angle variation in hinge design for hood.
Thickness of outer pannel, inner pannel, thickness...which deals NVH-noise,vibration,hardness, reinforcement of striger,hinge will be 1.5mm,1.00mm. Mastic is hardned rubber type material contains high shock absorbs capacity, with stand in high vibration, noise. mastic can 80mm zone withstand capacity.
hinge axis perpendicular to striger - circle trajectory, hinge axis- striger trajectroy-both are linked.
