Roof challenge
AIM: To Design Roof, Front roof rail, Rear Roof Rail, Bow Roofs, and reinforcement roof centre by following the Master section with the design parameter for the given class A surface.
INTRODUCTION TO ROOF:
An automobile roof or car top is the portion of an automobile that sits above the passenger compartment, protecting the vehicle occupants from sun, wind, rain, and other external elements. Because the earliest automobiles were designed in an era of horse-drawn carriages, early automobile roofs used similar materials and designs.
DESIGN PROCEDURE:
FOR FRONT ROOF RAIL:
REAR ROOF RAIL:
MASTER SECTIONS:
COMPONENTS:
1. ROOF: An automobile roof or car top is the portion of an automobile that sits above the passenger compartment, protecting the vehicle occupants from sun, wind, rain, and other external elements.
2. FRONT ROOF RAIL: Front roof rail is the additional commodity which acts as reinforcement also it has certain features in it which will be supporting bracket maplamp and room lamp.
3. REAR ROOF RAIL: Rear roof rail is mainly supporting the roof. And also the back door hinges in order to make opening and closing.
4. CENTRE ROOF RAIL:
5. BOW ROOF (1):
6. BOW ROOF (2):
BOW ROOF DESIGN:
1. BOW ROOF PREDICTION FORMULA:
SNOW LOAD PREDICTION FORMULA:
SECTION INERTIA ANALYSIS:
1. BOW ROOF (1):
2. BOW ROOF (2):
DRAFT ANALYSIS:
The Draft Analysis command enables you to detect if the part you drafted will be easily removed. This type of analysis is performed based on color ranges identifying zones on the analyzed element where the deviation from the draft direction at any point, corresponds to specified values.
Draft analysis lets you check parts and/or molds, to make sure they will seperate. Hopefully avoiding "locking" the part in the mold (or mould).
RESULT:
The Design of Roof, Front roof rail, Rear Roof Rail, Bow Roofs, and reinforcement roof center by following the Master section with the design parameter for the given class A surface is done and the final model is shown in the fig. below.
