Class – B.TECH, 5 th Sem Roll No. – ME-45 Submitted To – Mr. Yogesh Dubey Course – TATA MOTORS Session – 2022-23 INTRODUCTION :-
Mr. Natarajan chandrasekaran is the chairman of
the Tata Motors. Tata Motors Limited is an Indian multinational automotive manufacturing corporation headquartered in Mumbai which is part of the Tata group. It was established in 1945 in Mumbai .Tata motors is a part of the over $100 billion Tata group founded by jamsetji Tata in 1868 . WHAT IS AUTOMOBILE ? Motorized vehicle consist of four wheel and powered by an internal engine. Automobiles are used to transport people and other items from one location to another location. After years or designs, inventors were able to develop a functional general design. Automobiles generally use gasoline to fuel the internal engine, but technological advances have lead,, to the design of cars that run on electricity. AUTOMOBILE ENGINE :- A machine for converting thermal energy into mechanical energy or power to produce force and motion.

ABOUT CLUTCH :- A clutch is a mechanical device that engages and disengages the power transmission, especially from driving shaft to driven shaft. Clutches are used whenever the transmission of power or motion must be controlled either in amount or over time. Clutches connect and disconnect two rotating shafts (drive shafts or line shafts). In these devices, one shaft is attached to an engine or other power units while the other shaft provides output power for work. GEAR BOX :- That part of car’s transmission controlling the gear of trains. The purpose of gear box is to increase or reduce speed. In the gear box, torque output will be the inverse of the speed function. If the enclosed drive is a speed reducer, the torque output will increase; if the drive increases speed, the torque output will decrease. ABOUT PROPELLER SHAFT :- A drive shaft, driven shaft, driving shaft, propeller shaft, or Cardan shaft is a component for transmitting mechanical power and torque and rotation. Prop shaft transmit the rotational torque from the gear box and engine to the drive axle, while allowing for relative movement between the gearbox and drive axle. ABOUT DIFFERENTIAL :- It is used to transfer the power to rear axle from gear box in rear wheel drive vehicles. The differential is used to transfer the rotary motion of the propeller shaft into reciprocating motion of the rear wheels. It is used to negotiate curves. CHASSIS AND It BODY :- machine portion is the main having all the components required for the operation and running of the automobile. Therefore, the portion of the automobile without body is called chassis. Body provides supports in a vehicle. FUNCTION OF COOLING SYSTEM : Cooling system to take care of that heat. In fact the cooling system on a car driving down the freeway dissipates enough heat to heat two average-sized houses! The primary job of cooling system is to keep the engine from overheating by transferring this heat to the air, but the cooling system also has several other important jobs. The engine in your car runs best at fairly high temperature. When the engine is cold, components wear out faster, and the engine is less efficient and emits more pollution. Another important job for cooling system is to allow the engine to heat up as quickly as possible and then to keep the engine at a constant temperature. CLOSER VIEW OF COOLING SYSTEM :- STEERING SYSTEM :- The steering arrangement is to turn the front wheels using a hand-operated stee ring wheel which is positioned in front of the driver, via the steering column, which may contain universal joints. Other arrangements are sometimes found on different types of vehicles, for example, a tiller or rear-wheel steering. Tracked vehicles such as bulldozers and tanks usually employ differential steering-that is, the tracks are made to move at different speeds or even in different direction, using clutches and brakes, to bring about a change of course or direction. VIEW OF STEERING SYSTEM :- BRAKING SYSTEM :-is a mechanical device that inhibits motion, slowing or stopping A brake a moving object or preventing its motion. Most brakes commonly use friction between two surfaces pressed together to to convert kinetic energy of the moving object into heat, through other methods of energy conversion may be employed Eddy current brakes use magnetic field to convert kinetic energy into electric current in the brake disc, fin or rail, which is converted into heat. Still other braking methods even transform kinetic energy into different forms, for example by transferring the energy to a rotating flywheel. Brakes are generally applied to rotating axles or wheels, but may also take other forms such as the surface of moving fluid. Some vehicles use a combination of braking mechanisms, such as drag racing cars with both wheel brakes and a parachute, or airplanes with both wheel brakes and drag flips raised into the air during landing. VIEW OF BRAKING SYSTEM :- LIGHTING SYSTEM AND ACCESSORIES :- The lighting system of a motor vehicle consists of lighting and signaling devices on mounted or integrated to the front, rear, sides, and in some case the top of a motor vehicle This lights the roadways for the driver and increases the conspicuity of the vehicle, allowing other drivers and pedestrians to see a vehicle’s presence, position sizes, direction of travel and the drivers intensions regarding direction ang speed of travel. Emergency vehicles usually carry distinctive lighting equipment to warm drivers and indicates priority of moment in traffic. BY : ROHIT TIWARI
