Текст № 1
The automobile is known to be made up of three basic parts: the engine, the body and chassis,the engine being the source of power. We know the body to include the hood and fenders and accessories. The bodyshould provide protection to the passengers from wind, cold and rain. Thusto shape a car meansto do it in such a way that it offers small resistance to the air.
Brakes are necessaryfor stopping the car.
Most braking systemsused today are hydraulic.
Текст № 2
The engine is known to be attached to the frame in three or four points. Noise and vibrations are inherent in engine operations.To prevent this noise from passing to the frame, the engineshould be insulated from the frame by washers.We know the frame to provide support for engine, body and power train,the body providing protection to the passengers from wind and rain. The frame is made of channel sections welded together.
Текст №3
We know the clutch to consist of two plates: the driven plate and the pressure plate.The driven plate is known to be situated between the flywheel and the pressure plate. The clutchused for engagement the engine and the gearbox is incorporated within the flywheel housing.
To guidethe car it is necessary to have some means of turningthe car, the steering wheel being linked to the front wheels for this purpose.
Текст №4
The frame is known to be the structural centre of the car. It is made of channel sectionswelded together, cross-members providing support Tor the engine and wheels. We know the frame to be rigid. Noise and vibrations are inherent in engine operation. To prevent this noise and vibrationsfrom passing to the frame and to the passengers of the car, t lie engineshould be insulated from the frame by rubber washers.
Текст №5
We know the chassis to be one of the most important units of the car.The chassis is known to consist of a power train, a frame with axles, wheels and springs. Itshould be noted that the chassis includes the brake and the steering systems as well. Brakes are necessaryto stop the car. Springs are used with additional devicescalled shock absorbers. The front wheels are attached to the rods by steering knuckle arms,the same wheels being on pivots.
Текст № 6
We know the power train to include the clutch, gearbox, propeller shaft, rear axle, final drive and differential. The clutch is usedfor engaging the engine with the gearbox,the gearbox being located between (he clutch and the propeller shaft. The clutch is known to consist of two platesincorporated within the flywheel housing.
To shape the car meansto make it in such manner that it offers small resistance to the air.

To connect the engine with the gearbox, the drivershould engage the clutch.
Текст № 13
The frame in considered to be the structural centre of any vehicle, us itshould provide support for the engine, body and power train members. The frame is made of sectionswelded together.
We know the frame to be reinforced by cross-members.To providesupport for the engine and wheels, the frame should be rigid and strong. Noise and vibrations being inherent in engine operation, the engine is insulated from the frame by rubber washers.
Текст №14
The automobile is known to consist of the engine, the body and the chassis,the engine being the source of power. The body has a hood and lenders and accessories: heater, lights and radio. Itshould provide protection to the passengers from wind and rain.The chassis is known to include the power train, frame and wheels.
Streamlining is an important factor.To streamline a car meansto shape it in such a manner that it offers small resistance to the air.
