Chapter Eighty-Eight: Chassis [Collect]
The collection only rose by more than 20 in the morning, it was really a cup, and there was a few voices of weak shouting, asking for collection, asking for recommendations......
Also thanks to shchlei for the tip.

Although the current development of automobiles has been thousands of miles, and the steps of designing automobiles are decades ahead of before, making clay models is still an indispensable step in the design and production of automobiles.
This kind of clay is a kind of clay similar to plasticine, but the texture is exceptionally hard, and after it is made, the designer needs to use a carving knife and other tools to carve it out with a knife like an engraver.
And the final size requirements are very rigorous, after all, in the future, this small model, to be enlarged into a 1:1 sludge model scale, and after making a 1:1 sludge model, these proportions and parameters must be input into the database to establish a three-dimensional model, and these data will become an important basis for setting parameters for industrial robots in the future.
Therefore, when producing, the requirements for designers are very strict, not only requiring designers to have the thinking and vision of an artist, but also to have the skills of a sculptor.
Fresh graduates are generally not allowed to participate in this kind of work, because they are not experienced enough, and it is generally necessary for such students to be in the position for one to three years before they are allowed to participate in such work.
The drawings and 5:1 clay models that were originally required to be drawn by a successful designer and his team after months of hard work are now in Jin Xiaoqiang's hands, and it took less than a month to basically complete them.
Such a designer, in the eyes of Wang Guoqiang, how can he not be a genius.
However, at this time, Jin Xiaoqiang was still distracted, concentrating on making his clay model, and Wang Guoqiang and Li Qiming, two designers, came over from time to time to help and give Jin Xiaoqiang a hand.
And the rest of the people who are helping around are the students who Jin Xiaoqiang specially selected from the newly recruited graduates of famous schools who have a solid foundation and have a more spiritual surname in design.
These people are mainly responsible for laying down and listening to Jin Xiaoqiang's teachings.
That's right, listening to Jin Xiaoqiang's teachings, when these students came to Huayang Power at the beginning, it was just because the salary of this company was really high enough, and the conditions were very attractive.
But after coming here, especially after more than a month of observation, they finally recognized Jin Xiaoqiang's ability.
At the beginning, there were still a few arrogant students who thought that Jin Xiaoqiang was just a rich second generation with a rich family, and he didn't necessarily have any real ability, especially since he was still an inconspicuous college graduate.
But when they saw the engines developed by Jin Xiaoqiang, as well as the streamlined and beautiful domineering models he designed, he had to admit that the young man in front of him who was about the same age as them was a demon.
Everyone learns car design, and everyone knows how difficult it is to design a new car.
And now Jin Xiaoqiang, as a student who has just walked out of college with them, has come up with several mature and recognized engine powertrains by several authoritative figures, how dare they their tails in front of Jin Xiaoqiang.
So Jin Xiaoqiang's authority was unconsciously established.
Those students, looking at Jin Xiaoqiang's eyes, have no longer become the same as before, and now every time they see Jin Xiaoqiang, they are always called Teacher Jin, and they obey his instructions even more, never asking why.
And Jin Xiaoqiang can also cultivate this design team with more than 50 people, after all, he can't do everything in the company's new model development plan in the future.
And with such a huge Huayang Power, it is impossible to rely on him alone to complete the design in the future, so a mature design team is still necessary.
So under his cultivation, these students have grown very quickly, and these students have just come out of school, and in the field of design, they are still a blank slate.
At this time, Jin Xiaoqiang just transmitted the latest design concepts in the future to these students, so that they could absorb and learn faster, so as to avoid the habit of being with those old-fashioned Celestial Empire designers in the past, so as to be contaminated with old-fashioned design concepts.
The design of the new model should be accelerated, and Jin Xiaoqiang is constantly speeding himself up, but in order to train those students, he still slowed down his speed, otherwise such a clay model, I am afraid he would have completed it alone a few days ago.
But after all, there are many places, in order to train those apprentices, so he will let those apprentices do it, and if he fails once, he is correcting the second time, so he patiently spits out the old and absorbs the new, so he slows down the speed.
However, this also cultivated a good learning and competitive atmosphere in his team, and one of these students, named Lei Yang, was very satisfied with Jin Xiaoqiang.
This student's hometown is in the south, graduated from a famous university in Beijing, and originally came over with the good treatment offered by the company, but under the cultivation of Jin Xiaoqiang, this student has a very good spiritual surname in terms of model design, learning new knowledge, and accepting new ideas very fast, and has a solid foundation, with his help, Jin Xiaoqiang's design progress has also accelerated a lot.
At present, time is the most important thing for Jin Xiaoqiang, and he plans to unveil his new model at the Beijing Auto Show in April next year.
However, at present, the catalog of their car companies has not been obtained, and there is no need to worry, at the end of the year, there will be several original car factories in Nanyang City waiting for him to acquire.
But the most critical problem is that those car factories have a catalog in their hands, and there is nothing else worth leaving behind, and the equipment is old and outdated, and it can no longer adapt to his new ideas and requirements.
So before the end of the year, Jin Xiaoqiang had to go to Europe to purchase some equipment and come back, and the German Kohler and Sweden's ABB that Alice knew before were not done for nothing.
Kohler's leveling machine, Rexroth's hydraulic equipment, Switzerland's Gudel's robotic arm, Sweden's ABB's robotic welding line, and the roller edge machine all had to be purchased in Europe.
Now Jin Xiaoqiang has asked Alice to contact these companies by phone and email, and is basically entering the negotiation stage.
There are also some machinery and equipment in the assembly workshop, which are all imported from Europe, and they cannot be done once or twice, so Jin Xiaoqiang plans to go to Europe to purchase these things once.
And after the purchase of these machinery and equipment, it will be debugged, and the same as the car will be run-in, and a series of things will be waiting for him to train, and so on.
So Jin Xiaoqiang felt that he had to finish all these designs before going to Europe.
At present, the design of the 1:5 clay model is nearing completion, and the remaining 1:1 clay model part, Jin Xiaoqiang plans to hand it over to Wang Guoqiang and Li Qiming to complete.
After all, the design of the car has reached this point, and the 1:1 clay model, and the work of entering the computer and modeling the three-dimensional force image is relatively simple.
And he has to complete the design of another important part of a car during this time, which is the chassis.
Purely in terms of the surname of a car, whether it is good or not is only determined by three parts.
These three parts are the engine, the transmission, and the chassis.
The engine and transmission are related to the power of a car, as well as the ability to speed up, and his importance is not to mention, while the chassis is related to the safety of the driver, as well as the driving pleasure, and the question of what kind of road the car can drive on.
Although asphalt roads have been popularized in China at present, it is not excluded that there are bad roads in many places.
And if many asphalt roads are not properly maintained, they will also have potholes, or mountain roads, full of twists and turns, and at this time, the territory of a car is very important.
Anyone who has driven a car and run long distances knows that when driving a domestic car or a Korean car, when cornering at high speed, the body is swaying.
Or the German car often walks on bad roads, or often turns at high speed, so after driving about 10,000 kilometers, you must go to the 4S shop to do the four-wheel dynamic balance, and when doing the four-wheel dynamic balance, you will find that there is a problem of body deformation.
And all because such a car does not have a good chassis.
Anyone who has driven a Passat knows that when driving at high speed, the Passat is very stable and flexible, and when driving a Toyota, Honda or Korean car, it often feels that the chassis is loose and the body is fluttering when the speed is too fast.
It's all about the chassis of a car!
Therefore, in order to design a car that can be accepted by consumers, especially those who know how to do it, and become a classic, it is necessary to have a good chassis.
In the next few years, among the domestic independent brand cars, several models with very good chassis were also born, such as Ricky's Linrui G5, such as Huazhong Automobile's H530, Zunchi, and so on, the territory of these cars is very stable.
When Jin Xiaoqiang was in his last life, he even drove the H530 in Huazhong to make a big bend at a speed of 130 kilometers per hour, and the chassis of which car gave him a very deep impression.
The tires grip very steadily, the body is very stable, and there is no tendency to deform at all, and such a car can be called a good car.
However, the current domestic cars have always been lacking in these aspects, and this time Jin Xiaoqiang intends to put the car he designed on one of the most successful chassis in history.
That's the chassis that is known as the king of corners.
