Abstract

The invention discloses an engine hood made from a composite material. The engine hood is equipped with an engine hood main body, wherein an outer layer 1 of the engine hood main body is made from a carbon fiber composite material; an inner layer 2 is made from a glass fiber material; the inner layer 2 is connected with the outer layer 1. The engine hood made from the composite material can meet the requirements of reducing the weight of the engine hood, reducing the fuel consumption and reducing pollutant emission and meanwhile can guarantee crash safety and controllable cost.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of composite material auto parts, in particular to a composite material engine compartment cover. Background technique [0002] Carbon fiber composite materials have the advantages of light weight, high strength and high rigidity. Sub-panels, bottom panels and side panels, etc. [0003] The density of carbon fiber reinforced resin matrix composite material is 1.5-2.0g / cubic centimeter, which is only 1 / 4-1 / 5 of the ordinary carbon steel commonly used in the automobile industry, and is about 1 / 3 lighter than the commonly used aluminum alloy, but The mechanical properties of carbon fiber composite materials are superior to those of metal materials, their tensile strength is 3-4 times higher than that of steel, and their stiffness is 2-3 times higher than that of steel. The use of carbon fiber materials can reduce the weight of the body while reducing the power demand, and then use a smaller drive engine and suspension ...
