  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.

What is the MAGNETO IGNITION SYSTEM? | WORKING | knowledgeaboutautomobile957

MAGNETO IGNITION SYSTEM Magneto is a special type of ignition system with its own electric generator to provide the necessary energy for the system. It is mounted on the engine and replaces all the components of the coil ignition system except the spark plug. A magneto when rotated by the engine is capable of producing a very high voltage and it does not need a battery as a source of external energy. The high tension magneto incorporates the windings to generate the primary voltage as well as to step up the voltage and thus does not require a separate coil to boost up the voltage required to operate the spark plug. Magneto can be either rotating armature type or rotating magnet type. In the first type, the armature consisting of the primary and secondary windings all rotate between the poles of a stationary magnet. whilst, in the second type the magnet revolves and the windings are kept stationary. A third type of magnet to called the polar inductor type is also in use. In the polar in...

Introduction to LiDar Sensors // Self Driving Cars //Autonomous vehicle // Sensor

  1 / 3 Lidar — Light Detection and Ranging 2 / 3 Autonomous vehicle 3 / 3 Caption Three What is Lidar LiDAR, or light detection and ranging, is a popular remote sensing method used for measuring the exact distance of an object on the earth’s surface. Even though it was  first used in the 1960s  when laser scanners were mounted to aeroplanes, LiDAR didn’t get the popularity it deserved until twenty years later. It was only during the 1980s after the introduction of GPS that it became a popular method for calculating accurate geospatial measurements. According to the  American Geoscience Institute , LiDAR uses a pulsed laser to calculate an object’s variable distances from the earth surface. These light pulses — put together with the information collected by the airborne system — generate accurate 3D information about the earth surface and the target object Types of LiDAR Systems Works during day ...
