Researchers Submit Patent Application, 'Vehicle Floor Production System', for Approval

摘要

"As shown in exemplary FIG. 1, a conventional front floor 100 forming an engine room 101 of a vehicle in general includes a dash panel 110, left and right fender apron members 112 and 113, and a radiator support member 114. The dash panel 110 serves as a partition between the engine room and a passenger room and prevents noise and vibration from being introduced into the passenger room. The left and right fender apron members 112 and 113 are butt-welded at predetermined regions of left and right sides of the dash panel 110 so that the front portions thereof extend toward the vehicle front. Accordingly, the left and right fender apron members 112 and 113 support left and right side portions of the engine and a transmission and fix the upper part of a strut of a front suspension. Both side portions of the radiator support member 114 are butt-welded to the front surfaces of the left and right fender apron members 112 and 113 so as to support the structure of a cooling system including an air conditioner and a radiator.
