SUPPORT STRUCTURE FOR ELECTRIC VEHICLE BATTERY, ASSEMBLY WITH THE SAME, AND METHODS OF MANUFACTURING, INTEGRATING, AND USING THE SAME
Embodiments herein relate to a battery support structure for an electric vehicle, assemblies with the same, and methods of manufacturing, integrating, and using the same, among other things. In embodiments, a support structure for use on an electric vehicle includes a pair of frame rails and a battery case with a bottom coupled to the frame rails. The battery case is coupled to the frame rails at a location below the frame rails, e.g., with resilient bushings held between the battery case and the frame rails by brackets extending below the frame rails, and away from the battery case.
Cleaning, maintaining, refurbishing, and/or diagnosing engine components including fuel system components, e.g., such as fuel-injectors. In one embodiment, a method of cleaning a fuel system component is provided. The method includes supplying a cleaning solution through the fuel system component, discontinuing the supplying of the cleaning solution, repeating the supplying of the cleaning solution and the discontinuing of the supplying of the cleaning solution a plurality of times, decoupling the source of cleaning solution, and connecting a source of fuel to the fuel system component, and supplying fuel through the fuel system component to re-establish fuel-based operation. In additional embodiments, a method of processing a fuel system component while it remains connected to an engine assembly, and a method of diagnosing a defective fuel system component, are provided.
Aerodynamic underbody structures, assemblies with the same, and methods of manufacturing, integrating, and using the same. To improve the aerodynamic performance of a vehicle, e.g., a truck, such as a tractor-trailer, one or more aerodynamic underbody structures are integrated thereon. The aerodynamic underbody structures can each include an elongated panel (22) that attaches to a mounting structure (18)that attaches to a vehicle underbody, thereby allowing each elongated panel to extend downward into a flow path beneath the vehicle. The elongated panels may extend substantially in parallel, being spaced inward from outer chassis structures, wheels, and/or fairings, or can be angled relative to each other. The configurations and implementations of the aerodynamic components described herein can improve aerodynamic performance of vehicles.
