What is the role of the cover cable?
The lines on the hood of a car are called plate stiffeners, and they serve a variety of purposes, including decoration, enhancing hood stiffness, disrupting currents, avoiding direct sunlight, and assisting the driver's vision.
decorative role : different models of the hood on the distribution of lines are not the same, these lines make the hood of the car no longer appear bare, but more beautiful, increase the positive sense of the car.
Enhanced hood rigidity : The hood of a car is usually made of iron material, relatively thin, easy to deform in a violent impact, causing injury to the occupants of the car. After adding the plate reinforcement, the rigidity of the hood can be enhanced to a certain extent, so that it is not easy to deform when the front impact.
spoiler action : The line on the hood of the car can disperse the air flow hit by the car at high speed to a certain extent, which is more aerodynamic and reduces the fuel consumption of the car.
out of direct sunlight : The lines on the hood of a car refract sunlight, preventing direct sunlight from reaching the driver's eyes and reducing the risk of accidents.
Assisted Driver's sight : If the hood is flat, the reflected light from the sun hitting it will affect the driver's sight. The design of some raised lines on the hood can adjust the direction of the light well, thereby reducing the impact on the driver and helping the driver better judge the road and the situation ahead.
In short, the plate reinforcement on the hood of the car is not only for decoration, they also have many practical functions, which are important to improve the safety and comfort of the car .
What is the material of the cover cable?
The cover cable is made of plastic.
The cover cable is usually made of plastic material, and the choice of this material has its specific reasons. First of all, the plastic material is relatively light, which can reduce the overall weight of the vehicle, helping to improve fuel economy and vehicle performance. Secondly, the plastic material has a certain elasticity, which can absorb the impact to a certain extent and provide a certain cushioning effect. However, one of the disadvantages of plastic material is that it is easy to age, especially in high temperatures or harsh environments, which may cause the cable to break or damage. Therefore, the owner needs to pay attention to maintenance and maintenance during use, and avoid forcibly closing when the cover is higher to reduce the damage to the cable .
In addition, the role of the cover cable is not only to connect the hood and the body, it also bears the important function of opening and closing the hood. Therefore, keeping the cover cable in good condition is essential for the normal use of the vehicle.
How to open the car hood if the cable is broken?
1. Pull the hood lock. Remove the fender or bumper of the vehicle and open the hood by manually gripping the hood lock.
2. Use screwdriver hook. From under the engine of the vehicle, turn the keyhole of the hood with the screwdriver hook to open the hood.
3. Use wire. Open the main driver's door, remove the seal on the window glass, extend the hook made of thick wire to the right, and hook the door opening motor to open the hood.
4. Go to the 4s store. If you can't handle it, you can drive the car to the 4s shop to find a professional to help open it.
If the car hood pull wire is broken, can not use brute force to pry the hood, may break the hood lock, but also cause the hood deformation.
The pull wire is not lubricated enough, and when the pull wire is pulled hard, the pull wire will break. After the car hood cable is broken, the hood cable needs to be replaced, and the hood cable should be lubricated regularly.
The hood protects the engine and surrounding line fittings, isolating the heat generated by the engine. The hood is usually opened when the oil is changed, glass water is added, and the engine is repaired.
Under normal circumstances, press the hood button under the steering wheel of the car, the hood springs up, there will be a small gap, the driver reaches into the gap, pull the mechanical handle of the hood, you can open the hood.
