DOOR HINGE REINFORCEMENT METHOD TO BE USED DURING CAR ARMOURING

摘要

FIELD: transport. ^ SUBSTANCE: strips and gussets are welded to the post metal in order to spread load and door hinges are attached to the protection plate installed from inside the body and welded circumferentially with mounting thread elements fixed thereon. Hinges are reinforced with gussets welded vertically to the hinge casing. Armour protection strips are welded in from inside the front and centre posts flush with the door opening and are wide enough to overlap the protection plates, which is due to the fact that there is no side clearance in the body shell. ^ EFFECT: more reliable door mounting and no load on hinges that could be caused by increased door weight as a result of armouring and armour glazing. ^ 18 dwg
