Chapter 640: Cars into thousands of households

"As long as there are three golds, three hundred and a half two will have a car." A salesperson in a car sales department in Xianyang called out loudly with a microphone. Many male customers were onlookers. Some of them are experimenting in cars. This is the scene of a car sales in Xianyang, Qin State.

A type of car called "Ding" came out in Qin. This kind of car is a kind of car produced by United Motor Corporation specifically to face the masses. The car immediately caused a huge sensation as soon as it appeared.

Qin State. Especially the Guanzhong area with Xianyang as the center has established its developed transportation network. Especially the number of his road journeys. It reached more than 37,000 miles in Guanzhong. These roads are located in various areas of Guanzhong.

But Qin Guo felt a headache for another transportation tool. That is the carriage. The driving force of a horse-drawn carriage is horse-powered transportation. Then the horse will naturally excrete. With the increase of carriages. Horse dung often appears on the highway. On other roads, if it is not cleaned up in time, a large road manure pile will often be formed. This seriously interferes with the smooth flow of traffic. Especially the highway. It is very troublesome to clean up.

In Xianyang. The State of Qin handled horse dung very hard. But even so, it is difficult to solve it effectively and completely. The most difficult thing to deal with is the horse in the carriage. Ma was often frightened and caused serious traffic accidents on the bustling streets of Xianyang. The Ministry of Transport even thought about lifting the ban on carriages entering the city. But that is more troublesome. So a convenient and fast transportation vehicle came into being.

Several large automobile companies in Xianyang have already seen cars when they use horse-drawn carriages. But because it is expensive. Poor stability and not very popular. Especially the speed of the car. Some can't even keep up with the speed of the carriage. Such cars are basically scrap iron. And it's expensive. Up to twenty gold or more. Even a trendy figure like Yingyu is not optimistic about such a car. But these failed cars laid the technical support for my "D" car.

quickly. The "D"-type car with advanced technology upgrades was developed. He has a great price advantage. The cost price is only a hundred and a half. Extensive use of stamping parts. The emergence of a high-density synthetic sponge material gives cars temporarily good tires. Moreover, this sponge material is inexpensive. It was previously used on new artillery. Especially on the large-caliber heavy artillery transporter.

In addition, there is another important factor. gasoline. In particular, leaded gasoline has become popular. This has prompted the mass popularization of automobiles.

The "D" type car is a front four-cylinder gasoline-ethanol engine. He combined all the advantages of improving the car before. Use common components for assembly line operations. This has been widely popularized in all factories in Qin.

He uses a unique electromagnetic ignition system, but the ignition coil needs to be strengthened due to the low voltage generated. In order to start more conveniently, it can also be manually switched to an independent dry battery system for ignition, and switch back to an electromagnetic ignition system when running at high speed. The advantage of this design is that it can continue to run even if the battery pack is exhausted. Sparks are generated by distributing to the cremation plug through a low-voltage "timer" installed at the end of the camshaft in front of the engine. This "timer" is the predecessor of modern distributors, which installs the current guide in the front of the cab There are 4 vibration coils in a box, and the timing adjustment of ignition is realized by manually turning the timer with the lever device on the steering column. It takes considerable skill to make the best choice between electromagnetic ignition or battery pack ignition and the best timing method under different load and speed conditions. In order to maintain the highest reliability and simplicity goals, this system is still retained after the car is equipped with an electronic starting system for generators and battery packs.

"D" model car rear-wheel drive, planetary gear transmission, 3-speed. Look at it by current standards. Can't be counted as three-speed. Because one gear belongs to reverse gear. But one thing is worth mentioning. That is, the car uses a clutch. This has to be said to be a miracle.

The front and rear axles of the "D" car are equipped with a non-independent suspension system with elliptical springs transversely. The front axle of the car is forged as a whole by a drop hammer. Ford has repeatedly shown its superiority by twisting it and sending it to dealers. The foot brake of this car is different from modern cars. Its right pedal stops the rear axle through the hoop of the brake drum on the transmission system, and the hand brake is realized by the external action of the brake drum.

There are two types of wheels. One is the higher-priced steel welded spoke wheels. This kind of wheel is very durable. This is specially produced by a bicycle manufacturer. The other is wooden wheels. This kind of wheel is cheap. But if it is used for long distances. Need to be replaced. Because it is easy to damage and not easy to repair. In fact. People love the former wheel more than the latter. The latter only appeared at the beginning. I never saw it again.

One disadvantage of the "D" car is that the car does not have a water pump, and the engine is cooled by natural circulation based on the thermosiphon principle. Because the hot water is lighter, it rises to the top of the engine and enters the cooler. When the temperature drops, it returns to the bottom and returns to the engine again. This was the cooling flow route of most cars at that time, even after the water pump was equipped, the problem was not solved until after the cross-flow cooler. However, this is a later model of the "D" car, which is also available in later cars.

The coolers, lights, and many small parts of the early models were made of brass with a single style. Most cars were convertible wagons. The headlights developed from the original acetylene lamps to electric lamps. The "D" type car uses many advanced technologies, such as vanadium steel, which makes it extremely durable.

This car has been favored by many people as soon as it came out. And other auto manufacturers have also imitated them one after another. As a result, the market is flooded with cheap travel convertibles like this. Mutual competition among automobile manufacturers. It can be said that it has reached a bad stage. The patent lawsuit reached Tingwei Mansion. But this kind of case is very troublesome to deal with. The patent application has reached a crazy degree. As long as there is a little technological innovation, it will immediately apply for technology patents. If you win in court in the future, there will be high compensation. Qin State provides special protection for technology patents.

Enterprise competition is fierce. It shows that this line is very profitable. That is obvious. Qin’s motor vehicle demand is conservatively estimated to be around 1 million. This number will change in the future. Banks with promising prospects also stepped in. The installment loan car purchase project allows banks to take a share of the auto industry. But let the car into thousands of households.
