The pressure value on the tire indicates the maximum pressure the tire can withstand. It is important to pay attention to the tire pressure value regularly, as abnormal tire pressure can cause certain hazards. Hazards of over-inflation: The contact area between the tread and the ground decreases, leading to severe wear in the center of the tire crown; the adhesion between the tire and the ground is reduced, which decreases braking efficiency and weakens the vehicle's braking performance; the cushioning performance is reduced, lowering ride comfort; when the tire is severely damaged, over-inflation can also pose a risk of tire blowout. Hazards of under-inflation: The contact area between the tread and the ground increases, causing severe wear on both sides of the tire crown; the adhesion between the tire and the ground increases, leading to higher fuel consumption; the cushioning performance is reduced, lowering ride comfort. In fact, both over-inflation and under-inflation can affect ride comfort.

How to Brake for Beginners?

It is best to use intermittent braking when applying the brakes in a car, which means pressing and releasing the brake pedal quickly and repeatedly until the car comes to a complete stop. Pay attention to pressing the pedal swiftly. Here are the reasons: Air brakes are generally used in heavy-duty vehicles, so their braking effect is better than hydraulic brakes. However, pressing the air brake pedal too hard can cause uneven braking, so intermittent braking is recommended for vehicles with air brakes. Here is a brief introduction to air brakes: 1. Air braking is a type of braking system. 2. In automobiles, a series of specialized devices that apply a certain force from the external environment (mainly the road surface) to specific parts of the vehicle (mainly the wheels) to enforce a certain degree of braking are collectively referred to as the braking system.

What does OEM mean?

OEM refers to the assembly plant where complete vehicles are assembled. In contrast to OEMs, there are component manufacturers such as brake factories and engine factories. To put it simply, for passenger cars, the welding of the car body is also completed at the OEM. Factories that produce complete vehicles are called OEMs, while those that produce components like engines are called component manufacturers. Generally, OEMs are responsible for final assembly, painting, welding, and other tasks. Extension: The automotive production process can be roughly divided into five parts: stamping → welding → painting → assembly → pre-sale inspection. The automotive production process is a complex and large-scale industrial production, but to put it simply, it can be summarized as: stamping - welding - painting - assembly.

From Which Year Did China 5 Vehicles Begin?

China 5 emission standard vehicles started production in 2012 and were implemented in 2013. The China 5 vehicle emission standards mainly refer to HC emission values below 0.1g/km, CO emission values below 1.0g/km, NOx emission values below 0.06g/km, and PM requirements below 0.005g/km. Here is a brief introduction to the content stipulated by the China 5 emission standard: 1. Applicable to light-duty vehicles powered by spark-ignition engines or compression-ignition engines with a maximum design speed greater than or equal to 50km/h. 2. For light-duty vehicles equipped with spark-ignition engines. Emission limits and measurement methods for exhaust pollutants, crankcase pollutants, and evaporative pollutants under normal and low temperatures, durability requirements for pollution control devices, as well as technical requirements and measurement methods for the On-Board Diagnostics (OBD) system. 3. For light-duty vehicles equipped with compression-ignition engines. Emission limits and measurement methods for exhaust pollutants under normal temperature, durability requirements for pollution control devices, as well as technical requirements and measurement methods for the On-Board Diagnostics (OBD) system. 4. Specifies the requirements for type approval of light-duty vehicles, the inspection and determination methods for production consistency and in-use compliance. 5. Specifies special requirements for light-duty vehicles fueled by LPG or NG. 6. Specifies the type approval procedures for replacement catalytic converters intended to be installed on light-duty vehicles as independent technical assemblies in terms of pollutant emissions.
