Components of the Automobile

The automobile is made up of three basic parts: the power plant, or the engine, the chassis and the body.

The engine is the source of power that makes the wheels rotate and the car move. It includes fuel, cooling, lubricating and electric systems. Most automobile engines have six or eight cylinders.

The chassis includes a power train (power transmission), a running gear, steering and braking systems as well.

The power train carries the power from the engine to the car wheels.

The power transmission, in turn, contains the clutch, gearbox, propeller or cardan shaft, final drive, differential, rear axle and axle shafts. The running gear consists of a frame with axles, wheels and springs.

The body has a hood, fenders and accessories: the heater, stereo tape recorder, windshield wipers, conditioner, speedometer and so on.

Задание 4

Автомобиль состоит из трех основных частей: силовой установки или двигателя, шасси и кузова. Двигатель - источник энергии, который заставляет колеса вращаться, а автомобиль двигаться. Включает топливную, охлаждающую, смазочную и электрическую системы. Большинство автомобильных двигателей имеют шесть или восемь цилиндров. Шасси включает в себя силовую передачу (трансмиссию), ходовую часть, рулевое управление и тормозные системы. Силовая передача передает мощность от двигателя к колесам автомобиля. Трансмиссия, в свою очередь, содержит сцепление, коробку передач, карданный вал, главную передачу, дифференциал, заднюю ось и полуоси. Ходовая часть состоит из рамы с осями, колесами и пружинами. Кузов имеет капот, крылья и аксессуары: отопитель, магнитола, дворники, кондиционер, спидометр и тд.
