Specification

Description:BACKGROUND
Technical Field
[0001] The embodiments herein generally relate to an apparatus of a two-wheeler, and more particularly, to a wheel well apparatus which supports to cool the one or more components of the two-wheeler.
Description of the Related Art
[0002] As used herein, a wheel well is defined as an automobile part of a two-wheeler. When the two-wheeler moves, wheel of the two-wheeler is in contact with dirt, mud, and rocks continuously. The dirt, the mud, and the rocks which sticks with the wheel flies off and may enter into the two-wheeler. Most commonly, the wheel well is designed to protect one or more components of the two-wheeler from the dirt, the mud, and the rocks. In recent days, the wheel well is used to allow air follow inside the two-wheeler to cool the one or more components of the two-wheeler.
[0003] Conventional wheel wells do not have a plurality of openings, so that the wheel well is used only to oppose entry of the dirt, the mud, and the rocks and will not allow airflow to the one or more components of the two-wheeler (E.g., a junction box, a DC-to-Dc converter, a charging unit, a battery unit, and a powertrain and the like). Due to absence of a plurality of openings (e.g., an air duct or an air vent), there is no course of action to reduce temperature level of the one or more components the two-wheeler; hence, performance of the one or more components of the two-wheeler may be affected due to increased temperature level.
[0004] In modern era, the wheel well is used not only to oppose entry of the dirt, the mud, and the rocks but at the same time, the wheel well allows the airflow (via the plurality of openings) to the one or more components of the two-wheeler to reduce temperature level. The wheel well allows the airflow via the plurality of openings which presents at the lower portion of the wheel well. The plurality of openings will converge, and allow the airflow to the one or more components of the two-wheeler to reduce temperature level of the one or more components of the two-wheeler.
[0005] Due to position of the plurality of openings, not only the airflow but the dirt, the mud, and the rocks may enter to the plurality of openings, and reach the one or more components of the two-wheeler. The dirt, the mud, and the rocks which enter into the one or more components of the two-wheeler and initiate a corrosion process. In addition to that, the dirt, the mud and the rocks may block the plurality of openings. Once the plurality of openings gets blocked, the airflow may be reduced. Further, the modern era wheel wells do not have any arrangements in the plurality of openings to increase velocity of the airflow efficiently. So, velocity of the airflow may not be enough to reduce temperature level of the one or more components of the two-wheeler, so that the temperature level of the one or more components of the two-wheeler may increase. Due to the increased temperature, performance of the one or more components of the two-wheeler may be affected. However, the conventional and recent approach are not efficient to solve above problems.
[0006] Hence, there is a need for an improved wheel well apparatus to address the aforementioned issues.
