How Hard is a Windshield?

According to the Mohs hardness scale, the hardness of a windshield glass is 6.5. The higher the hardness, the better the wear resistance. Common hardness indicators include Mohs hardness and Brinell hardness. Mohs Hardness: This is a standard for measuring mineral hardness, also known as the Mohs scale. Mohs hardness is determined by scratching the surface of the tested mineral with a pyramidal diamond point and measuring the depth of the scratch. The depth of the scratch represents the Mohs hardness, denoted by the symbol HM. It is also used to indicate the hardness of other materials. Brinell Hardness: This is a standard for measuring material hardness. A load P of a certain size is applied to press a hardened steel ball with diameter D into the surface of the tested metal material, and the load is removed after a certain period. The ratio of the load P to the surface area F of the indentation is the Brinell hardness value, denoted as HB.

What Causes Tire Bulges?

Tire bulges are primarily caused by excessive air pressure during use, which reduces the tire's contact area with the ground and leads to premature wear. During operation, rolling acceleration or poor heat dissipation can cause the tread temperature to rise. Tire bulges are categorized into two types: ply break bulges and separation bulges. Separation bulges mainly include crown separation, shoulder separation, and bead separation. Crown separation primarily manifests as delamination at the top of the tread (known as the crown surface). Shoulder separation is a type of sidewall bulge, which can be localized or extensive, commonly occurring between the tread and the sidewall. Bead separation mainly refers to radial tires for heavy loads, typically showing as detachment around the steel rim.

How to Replace a Lost Vehicle License?

If a vehicle license is lost or damaged, the owner should apply for a replacement at the vehicle management office where the vehicle is registered. When applying, the vehicle owner must fill out an application form and submit proof of identity. The vehicle management office should issue a replacement license within one day of accepting the application. The documents and certificates required for inspection include: 1. Proof of identity of the vehicle owner; 2. Proof of vehicle origin, such as the purchase invoice; 3. Proof of vehicle compliance with manufacturing standards or import documentation for imported vehicles; 4. Proof of payment of vehicle purchase tax or tax exemption certificate; 5. Proof of compulsory traffic accident liability insurance; 6. Other documents and certificates required by laws and administrative regulations for vehicle registration.

How Long Does Car Painting Usually Take?

Car painting typically takes one day. The painting process includes: 1. Receiving the vehicle, inquiry, documentation, and task assignment; 2. Accepting the task, clocking in, disassembly, and repair; 3. After sheet metal repair is completed, transferring to painting, pre-painting treatment; 4. After pre-painting treatment, the actual painting begins; 5. Paint surface treatment, removing imperfections, and mirror finishing; 6. Quality inspection and car washing. Car painting refers to applying a layer of paint to the car's surface to protect it. Automotive paint generally consists of four basic components: film-forming substances (resins), pigments (including extender pigments), solvents, and additives. Car painting includes: standard paint, metallic paint, pearl paint, clear coat, and matte paint.

What Causes Car Brake Shuddering?

The causes of car brake shuddering include: uneven brake discs, mounting surfaces of the hub and hat, manufacturing errors in brake discs, uneven torque of split disc and hat bolts, improper bedding-in of brake pads, and driving habits. The required flatness precision for car brake discs, hub mounting surfaces, and hat mounting surfaces is extremely high. Any unevenness exceeding 0.15mm among these three components can cause brake shuddering. In such cases, rust needs to be ground off and the hub surface must be thoroughly cleaned. Low-quality brake disc kits may have significant manufacturing errors that exceed product safety standards, so high-precision, high-quality products should be selected when choosing brake disc components. Improper bedding-in of brake pads can also lead to brake shuddering. Personal driving habits also affect braking performance. During driving, avoid prolonged or continuous brake application, as this may cause poor contact between brake pads and discs when stopping, resulting in brake shuddering.

What Functions Should a Clutch Have?

The functions that a clutch should have are: 1. Temporarily disconnect the connection between the engine and the transmission system, facilitating engine startup and gear shifting in the transmission, ensuring smooth operation during gear changes in the transmission system; 2. Limit the maximum torque that the transmission system can withstand; 3. Ensure the car can start smoothly. The working principle of a clutch is: The driving part and the driven part of the clutch transmit torque through the friction between contact surfaces, or use liquid as a transmission medium (hydraulic coupling) or magnetic transmission (electromagnetic clutch), allowing temporary separation and gradual engagement between the two, while permitting mutual rotation of both parts during the transmission process.

Will the insurance company compensate if the vehicle's annual inspection is overdue?

If a vehicle's annual inspection is overdue and an accident occurs, the insurance company is not required to compensate. According to the motor vehicle third-party liability insurance clause, the insurer is not liable for compensation in the event of a traffic accident if the insured vehicle has not undergone the required annual inspection, fails the inspection, or lacks other valid driving documents. This means the insurance contract only applies to qualified and legally compliant vehicles. In addition to refusing compensation for traffic accidents involving vehicles with overdue inspections, insurance companies also deny claims for lost vehicles under the same circumstances. For vehicles that have not undergone annual inspection, traffic police can impose a fine and deduct 3 points from the driver's license according to the Road Traffic Safety Law, and the vehicle may also be temporarily impounded.
