This mechanism is designed in such some way that the vehicle can have safe, simple and stable mobility even at the higher speeds. To confirm that the overhang is safe and secure while expansion and retraction positions. This mechanism will be powered by hydraulics and electronics by functionality. As this mechanism only be used for electric vehicles, it brings a modern approach for utilizing the massive existing space in the electric vehicle and proving additional safety to the vehicle This concept of the variable overhang mechanism also provides a new approach in designing the vehicle of future as the frontal crumple zone will be expanded and retracted in accordance to the speed variation. This system will be acting as an active safety system providing different configurations in adjustment to the road conditions and speed variations. Among the major road crashes which occurs in our day to day lives, most of those crashes are notes as head on collision. The current safety systems such as seatbelts and airbags perform a good job in safeguarding a person from upcoming injuries but despite of them we still require an additional system which will further improve the current safety conditions. This design will function by variable overhang mechanism which will further be helpful in crash reduction and will support vehicle as an added safety. In addition to this, it will support vehicle as a safety component by the introduction of honeycomb bumper, which will further sustain the impact and would be a great tool of utility. The honeycomb bumper will help sustaining the initial impact of the vehicle over crashes. This will result in drastic impact reduction at cabin area and improvising the safety conditions for the vehicle and certainly limit the impact transfer to the passenger cabin area. This safety feature will work on the principle of crumple zone, where the front mechanism of the vehicle will act as the frontal crumple zone to the vehicle by its self-breakdown tendency.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
