Today we look at innovative technologyreduce emissions of harmful substances from the car while driving. It is called "Start-Stop". This system has long been available to residents of America and other European countries, but came to the CIS recently. At present, this technology is present only in business-class cars, but soon manufacturers will equip with a novelty and mid-priced cars. The principle of the system is that when you click on a special panel, the “Start-Stop” button in the car activates an option that mutes the motor at traffic lights and starts it again when you start driving. All these actions occur at lightning speed, so you will not feel any discomfort. These processes are effective in reducing the release of harmful substances into the environment. Scientists have proved that it is idle time at the traffic lights of cars with the engine turned on for 10-15% that further pollutes the environment. Let's take a closer look at the Start-Stop system.
Different manufacturers work principles of thissystems differ somewhat. The pioneer was the company "Bosch", which first began to embed this system in cars. She provided a reinforced starter, designed by the manufacturer for at least 150,000 cycles. The “Start-Stop” button, when pressed, before stopping the engine, controls and checks all the functional units of the vehicle: the gear lever, which must be in the neutral position, the position of the accelerator pedals, brakes and clutch. Be sure to check the battery charge, because the system is running on electricity. If the “Start-Stop” notices any deviation from the norm in these indicators, you will not wait for the long-awaited stop at the traffic lights.
A few years after submission tothe global market for this system, the Mazda team presented to the world the original version of the Start-Stop button. The option worked a little differently and had differences from the “Boshevskaya”. When you press the “Start-Stop” button, it reacts with lightning speed, after that a mechanical release of the brake pedal occurs, so that the gasoline is delivered by the injection means to precisely those cylinders whose pistons are prepared for the engine's working cycle. For stopping the engine pistons meets an additional crankshaft sensor, which fulfills the function assigned to it without complaints. By clicking on the "Start-Stop" button, you perform a microexplosion, which produces enough energy to crank the crankshaft and start the engine. And so that the durability of your engine does not interfere, the system each time changes the pair of pistons that are involved in this operation. As you probably noticed, everything here is already thought out much more accurately and more efficiently, therefore the “Boshevsky” invention did not stick.
The "Start" button is different in differentcars. Each manufacturer wants to be original in interior design, so they try to highlight it, highlight it on the surface, and also decorate it with decorative elements. The “Start” button should always have a smooth and pleasant surface for the driver’s hands, which gives it more charm and comfort.
As a result, the Start-Stop system makes the typical driver's everyday life much easier and more convenient; besides, it allows us to get a little closer to the pure world and the air around us!
