Car Glass
Vehicle glass is glass used to provide light access to motor vehicles. It includes windscreens, side and rear windows, and glass panel roofs. Vehicle glass is generally held in place by glass run channels, which also serve to contain fragments of glass if the glass breaks. Back glass is also called rear window glass, rear windshield, back shield, or rear glass. It is the piece of glass opposite the windshield. Back glass is made from tempered glass, also known as safety glass, and when broken shatters into small, round pieces. Windshields are made of laminated glass, which consists of two layers of glass, separated by a vinyl sheet. Vehicle glass may contain heating coils or antennae. Repair Windscreens can be repaired after chips or cracks damage the outer windscreen layer but do not damage the PVB or inner layer. Crack repair depends upon the size, position, type, and depth of crack. In most cases cracks up to 2 inches are repairable. Local laws vary regarding safe wi ...

Greenhouse (car)
The greenhouse of a vehicle refers to the part of its body above the fender- or beltline, so called because it comprises mostly areas with glass: the windshield, side, and rear windows (or backlight), and sometimes also roof glass. These glassed areas are also known collectively as the car's daylight opening (DLO). To distinguish the greenhouse from DLO, the greenhouse is a superset which also includes the metal structures above the beltline: in general, these include the roof and all pillars separating the glass and upholding the roof. Design and terminology The shape and position of the greenhouse have a defining influence on the looks and functionality of the car, and are a prime means of differentiating between common body styles such as saloon/sedan, coupé, estate/wagon and hatchback. It may be a styling cue used to tie together different models from the same manufacturer; collectively, the greenhouse and other ''down the road graphics'' are used to identify and disting ...

Body Style
Governments and private organizations have developed car classification schemes that are used for various purposes including regulation, description, and categorization of cars. The International Standard ISO 3833-1977 ''Road vehicles – Types – Terms and definitions'' also defines terms for classifying cars. Summary of classifications The following table summarises the commonly used terms of market segments and legal classifications. Market segments Microcar / kei car Microcars and their Japanese equivalent— kei cars— are the smallest category of automobile. Microcars straddle the boundary between car and motorbike, and are often covered by separate regulations from normal cars, resulting in relaxed requirements for registration and licensing. Engine size is often or less, and microcars have three or four wheels. Microcars are most popular in Europe, where they originated following World War II. The predecessors to micro cars are voiturettes and cycle ca ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
