Diseño, construcción e implementación del banco didáctico funcional de la geometría de la Dirección Vehicular de la Escuela de Ingeniería Automotriz.

Abstract

A Functional Didactic Bank of the Vehicle Steering Geometry for AutomotiveEngineering School at the ESPOCH was built, with the purpose of contributing to the improvement of technical students. A McPherson suspension system, and a mechanical direction system by rack were acquired and submitted to a rigorous process of maintenance and adaptation, so that, they can function effectively, fixed on a frame designed to fulfill the necessary requirements. An electronic control system for automating the bank, has been used. In order to optimize the use of this didactic supplies bank, the safety rules, operating and maintenance guides with their laboratory have been considered The Didactic bench was built to provide the availability of a suspension and steering system with an electronic control system, operating under real conditions into the laboratory and enabling students to have experience of both rotational geometry as automatic adjustment direction of the levels which contribute to their technical preparation. It is recommended to take into account the safety rules and maintenance of this didactic bank and can safeguard the integrity of students, as well as to widen the lifetime of the equipment
