Diseño - construcción e implementación de un sistema con techo retráctil en un vehículo Suzuki Forsa 1 para el taller Auto Lujos de la Ciudad de Ambato.

Abstract

By presenting the design, construction and implementation of a manually operated retractable roof system on a Suzuki Forsa 1 vehicle to obtain an improved vehicle, based on two types of vehicle brands known in the automotive field, Mercedes Benz and Peugeot whose characteristics serve as guides in the study of design. By means of the aerodynamic modeling and analysis, for the design approach we used the software SOLIDWORKS 2016, prior to this we took the original dimensions of the car to modify the structure of the body, later ANSYS 16.2, these give us the results to identify the more appropriate design, to determine whether the elements to be used would support the weight, loads and stresses to which they are subjected. For such construction we will use processes of cutting, welding and mathematical analysis resulting in a sturdy, lightweight body capable of supporting different weights. According to the analysis and the correct selection of the material, it was constructed using structural steel as a base material, obtaining satisfactory results that guarantee the implementation, which provides the resistance and the adequate security. The luggage compartment was modified where the folding hardtop will be stored when it is open-topped, it has also been reinforced in specific areas such as the side of the body and in the frame of the windshield where it will withstand the greatest concentration of effort. The final result will be a convertible car with a manual rigid roof suitable for driving and used in any city of the country, which will be comfortable and aesthetically pleasing to the users. It is recommended to know and be informed of the protocol of operation of the system when it is necessary to deploy the vehicle.
