  • Publication number: 20230022738
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a body structure for a vehicle capable of improving a vibration damping effect by a damping member while preventing an increase in an application amount of the damping member and a shape change of a component. Embodiments include a body structure for a vehicle in which a first bonded surface of a first body component and a second bonded surface of a second body component are bonded via a damping member, with which a portion between the first bonded surface and the second bonded surface is filled. The first bonded surface of the first body component has a vertical wall extending toward the second bonded surface or away from the second bonded surface. The portion between the first bonded surface and the second bonded surface is filled with the damping member such that the damping member contacts the vertical wall.

  • Patent number: 7347167
    Abstract: A method for controlling a cooling system for an internal combustion engine having first and second cooling fans is provided, comprising operating the first cooling fan at a first rotational frequency which is greater than a combustion frequency of the internal combustion engine and operating the second cooling fan at a second rotational frequency which is less than the combustive vibration frequency of the internal combustion engine. Since the rotational frequencies of the first and second cooling fans are different from the combustion frequency of the internal combustion engine, the resonance between the rotational vibration of the cooling fans and the combustive vibration of the internal combustion engine may be prevented. Also, since the rotational frequencies of the first and second cooling fans are different from each other so that the resonance between their rotational vibrations may be prevented.
