What is Automotive Pneumatics?
1 Answers
Automotive pneumatics refers to the pneumatic suspension system in vehicles. The advantage of pneumatic suspension is that it ensures the car does not experience severe vibrations during driving, allows for easy adjustment of the vehicle height, and ensures ride comfort. When the vehicle is stationary, the pneumatic suspension can lower the car's body, and once the car starts, the chassis returns to its normal height. The pneumatic suspension system consists of airbag springs, shock absorbers, an air storage tank, four transmission pipelines, and pneumatic control software. The system uses an in-car controller to remotely inflate or deflate the airbags. When the internal pressure sensor detects low air pressure, the pump automatically fills the air storage tank, enabling free control of the vehicle height. The airbags in the pneumatic suspension have a specific load capacity. Severe overloading of the vehicle can cause the airbags to burst. Additionally, if the temperature is too low, the pneumatic suspension airbags may freeze, leading to issues such as failure to raise or lower the vehicle and inability to inflate, significantly affecting the normal use of the airbags.
