Chapter 501: Enriching the Vehicle's Functions

Many people are not familiar with the concept of torque, the vast majority of drivers only pay attention to horsepower when buying a car, and they all think that the greater the horsepower, the stronger the power of the car, in fact, this is a wrong perception.

Experienced truck drivers will have this question: Why does my car have 300 horsepower, but the engine always feels weak when it runs? The main reason for this doubt is torque.

Horsepower and torque are two different concepts, from the physical definition, horsepower is a unit of measuring power, refers to the work done by an object in a unit of time, and is a physical quantity that measures the speed of work.

Torque is a special moment of rotation of an object, which is the way of workmanship, not a physical unit used to measure the speed of workmanship.

Generally speaking, horsepower refers to whether the car runs fast or not, and people often say "this car runs really fast", which refers to the horsepower of the engine. The more horsepower, the faster the car can reach.

People often say that "this car is really powerful", in fact, it refers to the high torque, and torque refers to the explosive force, which is the way for the vehicle to burst out in an instant. The more torque you have, the more you can accelerate from the start and the better your ability to climb hills, and that's the difference between the two.

Fang Dongping used to design this engine purely to kill time, and he didn't expect to build this engine himself, so he didn't consider the manufacturing process at all when designing, and drew all the best solutions he could think of on the drawings.

I didn't expect this design to really come in handy, and the most difficult material problem was solved by Niu Xiaoqiang, so this engine could be truly manufactured. Without the support of super carbon steel, this engine can only be a flash in the pan, and it is impossible to turn it from a drawing to a reality.

The driver had never driven a truck with such high torque, and when the car drove out of the factory door, he deliberately slammed on the accelerator in order to show off. As a result, the engine responded immediately, and the body slammed forward, almost losing control, so that the suspension scared him to death.

Fortunately, he was experienced, and immediately slammed the steering wheel, and the body came to a beautiful large-angle steering, and the rear wheel came to a small drift, bringing up a thick puff of smoke.

The crowd of onlookers immediately applauded and praised the driver's superb driving skills. Niu Xiaoqiang and the others didn't care about this, they all listened to the roar of the engine with their ears sideways.

For veterans, if you want to tell whether an engine is good or not, you can hear one or two from the sound.

Several veterans smiled with satisfaction when they heard the roar of the engine.

The engine's voice was very low, and the sound waves emitted when it accelerated shook the people around it, and the ground trembled with it. This is not only a demonstration of the surging power, but also a reflection of the perfect coordination of the various parts of the engine.

Song Zhiyi smiled, "Director, you are really amazing, the diesel engine you developed is definitely second to none in China." ”

Fang Dongping is not modest at all, "This is the truth, our Dongping may not be as good as domestic counterparts in other aspects, but when it comes to engines, especially diesel engines, I don't think twice." ”

The others, a few knowledgeable people, all burst out laughing. They were not laughing at Fang Dongping's arrogance, but they agreed with Fang Dongping's words, and were full of hope for the unsatisfactory life of the Asian Machinery Factory, and they laughed because they were happy.

The engine is the core component of a car, and the performance of a car depends largely on whether the engine is good or not.

Now, with such a high-performance engine as the backing, the future of the Asian Machinery Factory is simply limitless. The better the factory is run, the veterans who joined in at the beginning of the establishment of the factory will naturally follow, and the future wages will definitely rise.

Niu Xiaoqiang said that my design level in terms of engine seems to be no worse than that of Master, so I can rank second in China?

Fang Dongping came to Niu Xiaoqiang, "Xiaoqiang, let's assign the manpower and take turns on duty, I am on the day shift, and I will solve the problems encountered during the day, you are on the night shift, and you will solve the problems encountered at night, otherwise we will not keep an eye on such an important link, I am not very relieved." ”

Niu Xiaoqiang nodded in agreement, "No problem, just arrange it like this, I have been squatting in the office for the past three days, and I can deal with it as soon as I have something." ”

After Niu Xiaoqiang finished speaking, he allocated the manpower. Accompanying Fang Dongping on the day shift were several older masters, such as Song Zhiyi and Deng Liang, in addition to Li Kewang from the machining workshop.

Following Niu Xiaoqiang on the night shift are Chen Hong, Zhou Kai and Chen Fanghua, these three people are relatively young and relatively able to stay up late.

The assignment of the two shifts takes into account the comprehensiveness of the technology, and the general problems can be solved on their own, and everyone has no opinion on this. After the shift was divided, the night shift people watched the excitement for a while and then went back to rest.

Niu Xiaoqiang couldn't sleep at all after returning to his office, so he simply got up and sat at his desk to think about the perfect plan for the vehicle's functions.

The function of the vehicle is a very important link in Niu Xiaoqiang's view, and at present, domestic trucks have no other functions except for driving. Niu Xiaoqiang felt that this was very bad, and he didn't take into account the driver's feelings at all.

After some serious consideration, he was ready to add some functions to the cab that domestic trucks do not currently have. For example, radio function, cassette playback function, etc.

Although this will increase the manufacturing cost, the money spent is not much for a car, but it can greatly improve the satisfaction of the driver, Niu Xiaoqiang feels that the money is definitely worth it.

He had left enough space in the cab in advance to install the radio and cassette playback equipment, and now he had to think about how to install the cassette recorder he had purchased from outside on top of the car.

Speaking of the recorder, Niu Xiaoqiang couldn't help but think of Zhang Guangmao's daughter Xiaolan. Xiaolan is a master in this area, unlike Niu Xiaoqiang, who is still relatively new to electronic devices.

Xiaolan has been studying abroad for half a year, and originally said that she would write a letter to Niu Xiaoqiang, but until now Niu Xiaoqiang has not received any of her letters, and I don't know if she didn't write at all, or the letter she wrote was lost by the post office.

"It would be nice if Xiaolan was here, she is so familiar with electronic devices, she can definitely help me think of a way to modify it. ”

Niu Xiaoqiang shook his head slightly at this point, and smiled self-deprecatingly, "I'd better deal with it myself, it's not that there are no technicians in the factory, what do you expect Xiaolan to do?"
