Next let us look at the new energy vehicle fasteners and traditional automobile fasteners what is the difference.
New energy vehicles, especially electric vehicles, have extremely stringent requirements on vehicle weight. The powertrain of electric vehicles is usually heavy, and the battery pack occupies a large amount of the vehicle's weight, so reducing the weight of other body parts is the key to improving energy efficiency and range. As a common automotive connector, the lightweight design of automotive car clips is particularly important.
Material Selection: Car clips used in new energy vehicles are usually made of lighter and higher strength materials, such as high-strength plastics, glass fiber reinforced composites, aluminum alloys and so on. These materials are not only lightweight, but also have sufficient durability and corrosion resistance to meet the stability needs of the car in long-term use.
Structural Optimization: By optimizing the structural design of the automotive clip, unnecessary materials and redundant parts are reduced to make it lightweight while ensuring connection strength and reliability. This not only reduces the overall body weight, but also helps to improve the range performance of new energy vehicles.
One of the design concepts of new energy vehicles is “green”. Therefore, the environmental friendliness and recyclability of automobile clips become important considerations in the design. Compared with traditional fuel vehicles, the manufacturing and dismantling process of new energy vehicles emphasizes the sustainability and environmental friendliness of materials.
Selection of environmentally friendly materials: Car clips in new energy vehicles not only need to be durable, but also require the use of non-toxic, low-emission, environmentally friendly materials. For example, the use of halogen-free, high-strength plastics as well as recyclable synthetic materials, which help to reduce the emission of hazardous substances during the production process while increasing the recycling value of the car clips after disposal.
Detachable design: New energy vehicles are increasingly emphasizing recyclability and detachability, so car clips need to be designed to be easily disassembled without destroying other components. Car clip designers need to ensure that car clips can be easily and efficiently recycled or reused at the end of their life cycle, reducing the burden on the environment.
New energy vehicles, especially electric vehicles, generate a lot of heat from their battery packs, so many components in the vehicle, including the clamps, must be able to withstand high operating temperatures. The design of car clips needs to take high temperature resistance into special consideration to avoid deformation or failure under prolonged use or high loads.
Thermal Stability: Car clips in new energy vehicles are often used to secure battery packs, body interiors or electrical equipment, requiring their materials to be stable at high temperatures. For example, plastic clips may expand or soften at high temperatures, leading to connection failure, so the use of engineering plastics or metal materials with stronger thermal stability has become an inevitable trend.
Battery compatibility: Considering the working environment and temperature fluctuation of battery packs, car clamps should also be designed to avoid electrochemical reactions with batteries or jeopardizing the safety of batteries. Therefore, the car clip material needs to have good electrical insulation and corrosion resistance to ensure compatibility with the battery pack.
Due to its special power system and high-voltage battery, the safety of new energy vehicles has become a top priority in the design. As a fixed and connecting part, the safety of the car clip is directly related to the overall structural stability of the vehicle. Therefore, in new energy vehicles, car clips should not only be able to bear conventional structural stresses, but also be able to cope with the challenges of battery pack collision, post-collision deformation and other extreme situations.
Post-crash stability: In the event of a vehicle collision or accident, the design of the car clamps needs to ensure that they can effectively maintain the connection of critical components and provide a certain amount of plastic deformation when necessary to avoid serious damage to the battery system and electrical components.
Fire Safety: Battery packs can overheat or catch fire, so car clip design also needs to consider fire safety. Some specially designed car clamps may automatically release when the temperature is too high, avoiding excessive pressure on the battery or other flammable parts, thus enhancing the safety of the whole vehicle.
With the trend towards intelligence in new energy vehicles, many new design requirements are changing the traditional functions of car clips. Intelligent car clips may be more than just a connecting part, they may take on more information transmission and monitoring functions.
Integrated Sensors: New energy vehicles are increasingly adopting on-board sensors and monitoring systems to realize functions such as intelligent driving, autonomous driving and intelligent maintenance. The car clip design may need to integrate temperature, pressure, humidity and other sensors for monitoring the working status of key components such as battery packs and engine compartments.
Adaptive Function: With the continuous development of intelligent and modularized technology, car clips may be equipped with an adaptive function that automatically adjusts the fastening strength or structure of the car clips according to the environmental changes to adapt to the different usage conditions and environmental requirements of the vehicle.
The popularization of new energy vehicles requires higher efficiency and cost control in the production process. While ensuring the function and performance of the automotive clips, how to control the production cost and ensure the stability of mass production is another challenge in the design.
Automated Production: The production line of new energy vehicles usually adopts automated manufacturing technology in large quantities. The design of automotive clips needs to comply with the automated production process to ensure high efficiency and low cost in mass production, and at the same time ensure that the clips can maintain consistency and high quality in the complex production process.
Modular design: Modular design of car clips can meet the needs of different models, simplify the production process, and share some parts between different models, thus reducing manufacturing costs.
