  What is Disc Brakes?

In a disc brakes system, braking is performed by pressing brake pads against a disc, which is rotating with the wheel.and brakes is applied on the wheel, and vehicle is deaccelerate and vehicle is stopped.

Working

The brake disc is made from cast iron and is bolted to the wheel hub and rotates with the wheel. the is suspended over the disc. The caliper body is mounted on the caliper bracket using two slide pins. the caliper bracket is attached to the Knuckle. a piston is attached to the caliper body and held in place by the piston seal and piston boot. the brake pads are placed in between the piston and disc , and are held in position by pad retainers on the caliper bracket.





The passages are drilled in the caliper for the hydraulic fluid to enter or leave the caliper body.these passages are also connected to one another for bleeding.

when the brake pedal is pressed, hydraulic pressure enters the caliper's cylinder ,resulting in the piston being pushed out from the caliper body. this action pushes the inner pad against the brake disc. as the pressure increases, the caliper body moves in the opposite direction to the motion of the piston.the caliper body pulls the outer pad applying it to the brake disc.

In this way, the brake disc is sandwiched between the inner and outer brake pads and braking is performed.
When the break pedal is subsequently released,the hydraulic pressure that was directed to the piston is removed. This terminates braking by allowing the piston to be pulled back to its original position by the elastic forces in the piston seal.

WORKSHOP : Precautions || workshop || Safety

  What safety precautions should be observed while working in the workshop ? 1) Keep shop floor clean, free from oil and other slippery materials. 2) Wear proper dress and avoid loose clothing and loose hair. 3) Wear shoes and avoid chapels. 4) Avoid playing, loose talk and funning inside the shop floor. 5) Keep good housekeeping and put all unnecessary items and rejected items in scrap box. 6) Learn everything about the machine before starting and clear all the doubts. 7) Keep a safe distance from rotating and sliding parts. 8) Never store inflammable materials inside or around the shop. 9) Never play with electricity, fire, parts with sharp edge etc. 10) Keep fire buckets and extinguishers ready for use.

Battery: definition, functions, Types, History, components, diagram,

 BATTERY: A battery in automobiles, is an electrochemical device which produce electricity (current) through chemical action inside it. The battery does not store electricity a electrons. The battery stores energy in the chemical form. The electrical energy is produced in the battery by the chemical reaction that occurs between two dissimilar plates that are immersed in a electrolyte solution.  The automotive batteries are rechargeable, therefore, they can also convert a electrical current into chemical energy and stores that energy until it is needed. The amount of electrical energy that a battery can produce depends upon the size, weight,  active area of plates, and the amount of sulphuric acid in the electrolyte. The greatest requirement of electrical energy from the battery occurs when it supplies current for operating the starter in When the engine is started, the vehicle's charging system (generator) supplies current to recharge the battery and to run the electrica...
