FIELD OF INVENTION
This invention relates to automobile. More particularly this invention pertains to a right hand drive light commercial vehicle with improvised technical features as compared to conventional automobiles.
BACKGROUND OF INVENTION
The invention of automobile is regarded as the inner driven force of amazing development modern civilization is having today. This revolutionized history of automobile was started with the invention the first steam, electrical, and gasoline-engine cars.
Nicolaus August Otto invented the gas motor engine in 1876. In 1885, Gottlieb Daimler invented a gas engine that allowed for a revolution in car design. Karl Benz was the German mechanical engineer who designed and in 1885 built the world's first practical automobile to be powered by an internal-combustion engine. America's first gasoline-powered automobile was the 1891 Lambert car invented by John W. Lambert.
In another further revolutionary step, Henry Ford improved the assembly line for automobile manufacturing (Model-T), invented a transmission mechanism, and popularized the gas-powered automobile. Rudolf Diesel invented the diesel-fueled internal combustion engine. Charles Franklin Kettering invented the first automobile electrical ignition system and the first practical engine-driven generator.
As this invention relates to an automobile equipped with diesel engine, the striking advantages of diesel engines are discussed below-
a) Power and economy: Diesel engines are more efficient than petrol engines of same power resulting in lower fuel consumption. It is found that diesel engines offer up to 40 % more mileage per gallon of fuel than petrol.
b) While higher compression ratio is helpful in raising efficiency, diesel engines are much more economical than gasoline (petrol) engines when at low power and at engine idle. Unlike the petrol engine, diesels lack a butterfly valve (throttle) in the inlet system, which closes at idle.


c) Diesel engines produce very little emmission of carbon monoxide as it burn the fuel in excess air even at full load.
d) For commercial uses requiring towing, load carrying and other tractive tasks, diesel engines tend to have better torque characteristics. Diesel engines tend to have their torque peak quite low in their speed range (usually between 1600 - 2000 rpm for a small-capacity unit, lower for a larger engine used in a truck). This provides smoother control over heavy loads when starting from rest, and, crucially, allows the diesel engine to be given higher loads at low speeds than a petrol engine, making them much more economical for these applications.
e) Reliability: The lack of an electrical ignition system improves the reliability of diesel engine. The high durability of a diesel engine is also due to its overbuilt nature as well as the diesel's combustion cycle, which creates less-violent changes in pressure when compared to a spark-ignition engine, a benefit that is magnified by the lower rotating speeds in diesels. Diesel fuel is a better lubricant than gasoline so is less harmful to the piston and cylinder bores.
The main disadvantage of a diesel engine is due to the greater compression force required and the increased weight of the stronger components which results the starting a diesel engine is a harder task. More torque is required to push the engine through compression.
PRIOR ART
In first generation automobiles, only heavy vehicles are equipped with diesel engines and diesel engines were not preferred for light vehicles for inherent difficulties of diesel engine. Due to ever increasing price of petrol, people are now a days more fascinated towards diesel engine cars.
The two main factors that held diesel engine back in private vehicles until quite recently were their low power outputs and high noise levels, characterised by knock


or clatter, especially at low speeds and when cold. This noise was caused by the sudden ignition of the diesel fuel when injected into the combustion chamber. This noise was a product of the sudden temperature change, hence it was more pronounced at low engine temperatures. A combination of improved mechanical technology (such as two-stage injectors which fire a short "pilot charge" of fuel into the cylinder to warm the combustion chamber before delivering the main fuel charge) and electronic control (which can adjust the timing and length of the injection process to optimise it for all speeds and temperatures) have partially mitigated these problems in the latest generation of common-rail designs. Poor power and narrow torque bands have been helped by the use of turbochargers and intercoolers.
Most of the countries of the Indian subcontinent allow Right Hand Drive system. However many countries of Europe as well as in United States Of America only Left Hand Drive is allowed. Even the basic features of vehicles being same, these two systems of driving differs in inter arrangement and layout of essential components of the engines.
One type of such a small automobile or car is van CM 11 manufactured by China Motor Company (CMC). This van is equipped with a petrol engine and essentially is a left hand drive vehicle. This van is equipped with four-cycle petrol engine with seating arrangement of 5,7 and 8 seats as per model. It is a light commercial vehicle. The gearbox transmission system of this vehicle consists of 5-speed manual gearbox system.
This vehicle is not suitable for use in Indian sub continent for its left hand drive system. Further the effective usable space of the vehicle being less, this vehicle is not suitable for multipurpose use.
For the above-mentioned reasons, efforts have been made for improvement of this vehicle by modifying the same suitable for diesel engine with right hand drive system. The improved version of the vehicle also offers versatile advancements in comparison of the prior art, which will be discussed in more detail in disclosure as follows.

It is also an object of the present invention to provide an automobile having right hand drive steering system suitable for use in Indian Sub continent.
It is also another object of the present invention to provide an automobile having larger effective usable space.
Further it is an object of the invention to develop an automobile, which offers more benefits to users in terms of engine output, speed and comfort.
SUMMERY OF INVENTION
Accordingly the invention an automobile equipped with a 4 cycle diesel engine with right hand side vehicle control by providing steering at right hand side of the automobile, Wherein the automobile is provided with 4 speed manual transmission gear box having final gear ratio of 4.1 and having engine displacement of the automobile 2000cc, and maximum engine output of the engine is 58 HP @ 4500 RPM, and Maximum torque of the engine is 11.28 KGM @ 3000 RPM.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF ACCOMPANYING DRAWINGS:
Fig 1. Shows the plan view of the body of the automobile with additional cross members.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE APPARATUS IN REFERENCE TO DRAWING
The foregoing aspects and many of the advantages of this invention will become more readily appreciated by following detailed description when taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
As discussed earlier the automobile is equipped with a four-cycle diesel engine. It is common knowledge that a diesel engine is an internal combustion engine, which operates using the diesel cycle. The diesel cycle uses compression ignition and the fuel ignites upon being injected into the highly compressed air in the combustion chamber. The basic principle is that if air is compressed to a high degree its temperature will increase to a point where fuel will burn upon contact.
Besides being equipped with a four-cycle diesel engine, the automobile is provided with a 4-speed manual gearbox. Manual transmissions typically offer better fuel economy than automatic. It is also found that increased fuel economy of 5-15 % can be achieved with properly operated manual transmission. The car of the prior art herein above discussed was consists of a 5 speed manual gearbox. Such manual transmission allows the driver to select any gear at a time. Though manual transmission are available in the art consisting as many as eight gears, for this particular version it has been found that 4 speed manual transmission is offering the characteristics sought for.
The final gear ratio of the engine system is 4.1. It describes the relationship between the numbers of teeth of the two gears that are meshed.
Rear axle ratio of the car is 4.1.


The vehicle control of the automobile is provided in right hand side and eventually the steering is located at right hand side.
The car has characteristics of engine displacement as 2000 cc. It defines the total volume of air or fuel mixture the engine is drawing during one complete engine cycle. This characteristic of engine displacement becomes important because many countries fix their taxation calculation on the basis of engine displacement rather than power output of the vehicle.
Maximum engine output of the car as HP @ RPM is 58 @ 4500RPM. This higher engine output is an important characteristic as it indicates the amount of work done by the engine per unit time. The greater the output, the more speed the vehicle can generate. This is an improvement over the prior art car discussed herein above which was having maximum output of 49 @ 5500 RPM.
Maximum torque as KGM @ RPM of the vehicle is 11.28 KGM @ 3000 RPM (+/-200) . The more the maximum torque, the greater the pulling force enabling the vehicle to more easily start from a stop and climb hills.
Compression ratio of the engine is 21: 1. The efficiency of the vehicle of the present engine can be predicted by this ratio. It is the ratio between the volume of the cylinder when the piston is at the bottom of its stroke and the volume when the piston is at the top of its stroke. A high compression ratio is desirable because it allows an engine to extract more mechanical energy from a given mass of air-fuel mixture due to its higher thermal efficiency. Thus it is an improvement over the prior art car discussed herein above which was having Compression ratio of 9.3 : 1.
To accommodate the bigger size diesel engine, dimensions of the vehicle is enhanced 3695 X1475 X1910 mm.
Wheelbase of the vehicle is kept as 2000, which depicts the distance between the centers of the front and rear wheels.
Turning radius of the system is 4.3 which is the radius of the smallest circular turn (eg. U -turn ) that the vehicle is capable of making.


In a further improvement of the vehicle in totality the auto adjustable headlamps are provided.
Fig. 1 of the accompanying drawing shows the system of additional cross member provided in the car. The improved features of the additional cross members are shown on encircle. These cross members are provided in upright and the front floor.
The automobile can be provided with 7, 8 or 9 seats as per models and customers requirements.
The automobile can be used in multipurpose activities like multi utility van, light commercial vehicle, ambulance as well as for courier delivery.
