Automobile engine cylinder pressure is around 1000kpa. Generally, gasoline engines are around 1000kpa, diesel engines are around 2000kpa, most fuel injection engines have cylinder pressures between 1200~1400kPa, and a few high-compression ratio engines have cylinder pressures above 1700kPa. A cylinder is a part of the car's combustion chamber where there is a piston pushed by the pressure or expansion force of the working fluid. The classification of cylinders is as follows: 1. Single-acting cylinder: Only one end has a piston rod, with air supplied from one side of the piston to generate pressure, which pushes the piston to extend, and returns via spring or self-weight. 2. Double-acting cylinder: Air is alternately supplied from both sides of the piston, outputting force in one or two directions. 3. Diaphragm cylinder: Uses a diaphragm instead of a piston, outputting force in only one direction, with spring reset. It has good sealing performance but a short stroke.

What does a motorcycle fender mean?

Motorcycle fenders are plate-like structures installed behind the outer frame of the wheels, typically made of high-quality rubber materials, with some using engineering plastics. The fender protrudes about 5cm from the body, effectively preventing flying stones and gravel from damaging the vehicle's paint. A motorcycle consists of five main components: the engine, transmission system, running gear, braking system, and electrical instrumentation equipment. Motorcycles are gasoline-powered vehicles steered by handlebars that control the front wheel, featuring two or three wheels for lightweight, agile movement and rapid travel. They are widely used for patrols, passenger and cargo transport, and also serve as sports equipment. Broadly speaking, motorcycles are categorized into street bikes, road racing motorcycles, off-road motorcycles, cruisers, and touring bikes.

What Causes Water Leakage in Car Air Conditioning?

The reasons for water leakage in car air conditioning are as follows: 1. Improper installation of the unit: The indoor unit is tilted, or the pipe opening direction is too high. 2. Poor drainage pipe: The drainage pipe is loose or bent into a wave shape, causing poor drainage. 3. Condensation on the piping: Due to poor or too thin insulation material on the piping, condensation occurs when the refrigerant passes through the pipe. 4. Heat exchanger dripping: (1) The heat exchanger is covered with dust, causing uneven temperature distribution in the heat exchanger, leading to water droplets forming midway and dripping outside the water collection pan into the interior. (2) Insufficient refrigerant in the air conditioning system causes indoor freezing, and the water formed by melting ice does not directly drip into the water collection pan.

At how many kilometers should the secondary maintenance of a car be performed?

Secondary maintenance is a maintenance operation centered on inspection and adjustment for motor vehicles that have traveled a certain mileage. The mileage at which secondary maintenance should be performed varies among different brands and models, and the specific interval should be determined according to the maintenance manual of the particular vehicle model. The purpose of secondary maintenance is to maintain the good working performance of various components, mechanisms, and assemblies of the vehicle, ensuring their normal operation between two secondary maintenance sessions. The main content includes the following aspects: 1. Engine section: Inspect cylinder pressure or vacuum, clean carbon deposits in the combustion chamber and grind valves if necessary, adjust valve clearance, and check for oil leaks from oil seals and the rear bearing of the crankshaft. 2. Clutch and transmission section: Check the effectiveness of the clutch and the bolts of the bottom cover, adjust the free travel of the pedal, and apply grease to the pedal shaft.
