Abstract

The aim of the article is to report the methods of solving the construction of the electric car frame. The electric car is designed for movement in the field. This is a functional model marked generation 0. The electric car should move in the field according to the specified trajectories with a load of up to 300 kg. The frame of the electric vehicle consists of aluminium alloy workpieces carrying wheels and four shaped sidewalls. One of the side panels was replaced by a composite part – by a fibre-reinforced plastic. Loading of the sidewall was monitored during operation. The side composite panel is made of welded duralumin, complemented by glass-epoxy composite. The composite part is composed of an epoxy matrix and glass fibre reinforcement (GFRP – glass fibre reinforced plastic). The reinforcing fabric has a plain weave. Holes and threaded holes were made in the aluminium inserts for mounting boards on the frame and mounting the electric vehicle units. Simulations of the behaviour of this sidewall and measurements during the operation were performed. Calculations were performed from both strength and deformation points. The result of calculations and measurements is that the composite sidewall designed in this way can be used for a given load of 300 kg.
