Automotive transmissions can be divided into manual transmissions and automatic transmissions based on their control methods. Common automatic transmissions mainly include four types: Automated Manual Transmission (AMT), Hydraulic Automatic Transmission (AT), Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT), and Dual-Clutch Transmission (DSG). Below are their structures and working principles: 1. Structure and Working Principle of Manual Transmission: A manual transmission mainly consists of a housing, transmission components (input/output shafts, gear synchronizers, etc.), and control components (shift levers, shift forks, etc.). By moving the gear lever, the driving gear on the intermediate shaft is switched, and different gear combinations engage with the power output shaft to change the torque and speed of the driving wheels. 2. Structure and Working Principle of Hydraulic Automatic Transmission: The torque converter generally consists of a pump impeller, stator, turbine, and lock-up clutch. The transmission is filled with transmission fluid. When the pump impeller connected to the power input shaft rotates, it drives the turbine connected to the output shaft via the transmission fluid, thereby transmitting the engine's power. 3. Structure and Working Principle of Continuously Variable Transmission: The main components of a CVT are two pulleys and a metal belt. The metal belt is looped around the two pulleys. Each pulley consists of two discs, with a V-shaped groove formed between them. One of the discs is controlled by a hydraulic mechanism, allowing it to move apart or closer depending on the engine speed. This action changes the width of the V-shaped groove, raising or lowering the metal belt, thereby altering the contact diameter between the belt and the pulley, which is equivalent to switching gears of different diameters in a gear transmission. 4. Structure and Working Principle of Dual-Clutch Transmission: Two clutches are assembled within the same mechanism as the transmission. One clutch is responsible for engaging gears 1, 3, 5, and reverse, while the other clutch handles gears 2, 4, and 6. When the driver engages 1st gear to start, the shift fork simultaneously engages 1st and 2nd gears, but clutch 1 is engaged while clutch 2 is disengaged, so power is transmitted through the 1st gear, and the 2nd gear idles. When the driver shifts to 2nd gear, the shift fork simultaneously engages 2nd and 3rd gears, clutch 1 disengages while clutch 2 engages, transmitting power through the 2nd gear, and the 3rd gear idles.

Is Filing Required for Installing a Roof Rack?

Filing is required. Below is a detailed introduction to two situations regarding the installation of roof racks on vehicles: 1. General Situation: A roof rack can be installed with approval from the vehicle management department. For small and micro passenger vehicles, owners can modify the roof rack as needed without applying for permission. 2. Special Situation: If the vehicle is originally equipped with a roof rack, items such as roof baskets and luggage boxes can be installed legally and compliantly. If the vehicle is not originally equipped with a roof rack, an application must be submitted to the local vehicle management department.

What is an Engine Oil Filter?

An engine oil filter is an oil cleaner. Here are some introductions about the engine oil filter: 1. Definition: The function of the engine oil filter is to filter the engine oil. The role of engine oil in the car's lubrication system mainly includes lubrication, rust prevention, sealing, cleaning, cooling, etc. 2. Function: The metal friction parts inside the engine are lubricated and protected by the engine oil. As the usage time accumulates, metal wear debris will enter the engine oil. If special equipment is not used to filter out the metal debris (such as iron filings, aluminum filings, etc.) in the oil, these particles will circulate inside the engine with the oil, causing greater safety threats to the engine.

What is the minimum ground clearance of the 2020 Teana?

The minimum ground clearance of the 2020 Teana is 132 millimeters. The minimum ground clearance of the 2020 Teana refers to the distance between the lowest point (excluding the wheels) and the supporting plane, which is used to indicate the vehicle's ability to pass over obstacles such as rocks and tree stumps without collision. The higher the ground clearance of the 2020 Teana, the better its off-road capability. However, if the ground clearance is too high, the stability at high speeds may decrease. The Teana is a premium mid-to-high-end luxury sedan under the NISSAN brand. With its exceptional qualities as a new high-end luxury sedan, introduced through Nissan's joint venture in Taiwan, the Teana is often regarded as the first true product of the collaboration between Dongfeng and Nissan. The dimensions of the 2020 Teana are 4901 mm in length, 1850 mm in width, and 1447 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2825 mm. Generally, the ground clearance of sedans ranges between 110 mm and 150 mm, while SUVs have a ground clearance between 200 mm and 250 mm. However, the ground clearance of the 2020 Teana is not static; it also depends on the load condition. Therefore, changes in ground clearance should be considered based on the load variations of the 2020 Teana. When selecting a vehicle, ground clearance can be one of the reference factors. The choice should depend on the vehicle's intended use and the road conditions. For urban areas with well-maintained roads, a vehicle with lower ground clearance can enhance stability and comfort. For long-distance travel or driving in areas with poor road conditions, a vehicle with higher ground clearance may be preferable to avoid damage to the undercarriage.
