Description

Motor vehicle. The invention relates to a motor vehicle and consists that the side walls of the car body or the chassis or both at open or closed motor vehicles are made of celluloid to which the The double task of the carrier and the plating (planking) falls to.

The use of celluloid for this purpose has according to the invention the most varied advantages.

First of all, it is possible to use the pulpy or viscous starting material pour or press the cellular fluid into molds by placing it directly on the carriage Can be used.

So far, the materials used have been cladding or plating of automotive parts always followed the procedure that this material is final completed and then cut to size, shaped and then applied to the car became. However, if celluloid is used, these two separate manufacturing processes are used unified in terms of time and therefore considerable in terms of both manpower and working time saved up. Furthermore, there is no waste that is required for further processing are as good as unusable.

Another advantage of the invention is that even the most difficult Moldings can be produced with ease, as it were in one cast. Construction parts, which previously always had to be produced separately, such as the side walls and the fenders, tread plates, etc., and which had to be joined together afterwards, can be manufactured in one piece from the outset with the invention.

Another advantage of the invention is that the following Painting and polishing of the fully assembled vehicle is no longer necessary. It can namely, the starting material already contains the desired dye (as pigment, flour o. the like.) are added and one receives not only immediately upon completion the desired fitting, which no longer requires any rework, but is obtained also the same in the desired color, glossy or matt, depending on the method of treatment of the celluloid, and, what is very important, colored through and through, so that too Interfaces that are colored.

Furthermore, molded parts can be obtained with the invention, which already have all the elements required to assemble the same to the vehicle are; for example, it can be cast (or pressed) in such a way that holes for Tighten, connect, etc. are available. There can also be openings at the same time be attached for inserting structural parts, and flanges, Passage ears for the air in cooling hoods etc. are the same in one process be attached during manufacture.

However, if post-processing is required, the high level of machinability comes into play of the celluloid useful. It can be drilled cut and be planed without cracks being formed in it. Here is its high effect With elasticity, which is fundamental in its application as a construction material is of paramount importance to vehicles. By vibrations, by springs etc. Its connection is not resolved in the supporting structure, there are no cracks on, and it can still be produced in one process with the desired wall thickness will.

So far, veneer panels have mainly been used, their production is known to be very difficult and expensive, and their shaping usually in the Warmth is also associated with difficulty.

Another advantage of the invention is that the applied Material is extremely weatherproof. Neither in strength nor on the surface it is changed by humidity or warmth.

The advantage of easy dyeability plays a role in other respects Role.

Parts of the car can be made opaque, other parts but, for example, the engine, the gearbox, etc., can be made by the fact that the covers made of clear "celluloid", observable during operation be made.

If you also put a wall of the car body from the new material here, you can do this in such a way that parts of the wall are opaque and others transparent are. In this way, for example, llan receives an end wall in one fell swoop, which is composed of opaque and transparent parts, without leaving it the difficult composition and especially shaping, e.g. B. of glass plates with support frame.

For example, if you want the front, curved part of a teardrop-shaped Train car body, so this is best done according to the invention because thus obtain the curved shape in the easiest and simplest way at the same time becomes opaque in its lower part and opaque in its upper part, in the field of vision the passenger or the driver is completely transparent.

In addition, there is the great advantage of great elasticity and strength of the material, which by far exceeds that of the glass.

The construction material according to the invention is even with small Wall thicknesses of a few millimeters have at least the strength that it is required as a mere cladding material without a load-bearing function. It stays that way very easy; it is lighter than wood, and will therefore allow, in a short, In terms of simplicity and accuracy, the method cannot be surpassed only the efficiency is increased here, but above all the Significantly reduced costs.

The molds to be used for producing the moldings are also not worn away to the same extent as those forms to which wood or Even metal plating must be drawn and hammered to get the desired, final To maintain shape.

Particularly to equip it also comes to the invention that it is possible today is to make the celluloid incombustible and non-explodable. This will it is particularly useful as a building material for all possible purposes, especially in the Around the engine compartment to close the same, and automobile fires, such as those in the usual wooden wagons are possible and lead to the complete destruction of the wagon, appear excluded.

Of course, it is not necessary to always choose the final shape immediately the initial mass of the celluloid when it is completed. One can use finished panels as building material in the same way, because there is still the advantage remains that it can be machined and the shape is incomparably larger or larger. is lighter than that of the previously used building materials.

also the connection of individual parts of celluloid with one another can take place in a simple manner, in that the starting material on the separators Applied as a connecting means and converted there into the final state where it connects the parts to be joined in the manner of a weld. The celluloid side wall, ceiling or floor can also be designed in this way that these parts relieve or completely relieve the load on the chassis girders, for example make unnecessary.

Another advantage of the invention is that the molded body in and of themselves and according to their composition can close together airtight.

Of course, disk wheels made of appropriately strong celluloid can also be used can be made or clothing made of this material for these bikes will. Protective shields can also be made from it.
