What is a car front fender
The fender is the outer body plate that covers the wheel, so named because the shape and position of this part of the old car body resemble bird wings. According to the installation position, the front fender is divided into front fender and rear fender. The front fender is installed at the front wheel, which must ensure the maximum limit space when the front wheel rotates and jacks, so the designer will verify the design size of the fender according to the selected tire model size with the "wheel runout diagram".
The rear fender does not suffer from wheel rotation bumps, but for aerodynamic reasons, the rear fender is slightly arched and protrudes outward. The fender panels of some cars have become a whole with the body body and are produced in one go. However, there are also cars whose fenders are independent, especially the front fender, because the front fender has more collision opportunities, and independent assembly is easy to replace the whole piece.
The fender plate is formed by resin from the outer plate part and the reinforcing part, wherein the outer plate part is exposed on the side of the vehicle, and the reinforcing part extends along the edge part of the outer plate part in the adjacent part of the adjacent part adjacent to the outer plate part, and at the same time, between the edge part of the outer plate part and the reinforcing part, A fitting part is formed for fitting adjacent parts.
The role of the fender is to prevent the sand and mud rolled up by the wheels from splashing to the bottom of the car during the driving process. Therefore, the materials used are required to have weathering resistance and good molding processability. The front fender of some cars is made of a plastic material with some elasticity. The plastic material is cushioned and relatively safe. There are two fender plates on the left and right front wheels of Santana car, weighing about 1.8Kg, which is made of toughened modified PP by injection molding; The fender of heavy Cartier King Steyr is made of FRP FRP SMC material; The fender of Steyr 1491 is made of PU elastomer. In the future, injection molding with PA/PP alloy is a more extensive development direction.
The fender, also known as the fender, is located above the left front wheel of the vehicle and acts as a cover for the exterior panel of the vehicle, so named because of the similarity between the early body structure and the bird wing. The front fender is the key part to ensure that the wheels have enough space to travel and jump, so the design is precisely measured and validated according to tire specifications.
The rear fender, on the other hand, does not need to consider wheel rotation, and is usually designed to slightly arch and protrude outwards, both in accordance with aerodynamic principles, and to protect the chassis to a certain extent, preventing sand and mud from splashing into the bottom of the car.
It is worth noting that the design and structure of the fender varies according to the model. The fender of some cars is closely integrated with the body and formed at one time, while the front fender may be independently designed for easy maintenance and replacement due to more collision risks.
