Development of Engine Shutoff Mechanism for Protection of Engine During Vehicle Rollover

Abstract

Automobile safety performance has quickly become the top consideration for more and more individuals due to the industry's rapid expansion. Vehicle rollover accident is a critical problem. As the vehicle gets rollover, it brings about the loss of lives, destruction of properties, and unexpected maintenance costs. Controlling engine component parts damage during vehicle rollover are fundamental from unexpected destruction and maintenance cost. This development focused on the investigating vehicle engine damage by rollover accident and its possible solution particularly focuses on Toyota land cruiser vehicle. To develop a simulation model of the engine rollover mechanism the researcher used the proteus software. Based on the above issues the engine shut off mechanism during vehicle rollover accident is developed to avoid the engine component parts to be damaged. The vehicle rollover protection system uses four sensors to monitor the vehicle roll angle. If the roll angle stays within a safe range, the system will not activate. However, if the roll angle exceeds a safe threshold, the system will sound an alarm and flash a warning light. The system will also disable the fuel delivery to the engine, preventing the vehicle from rolling over. The most optimal angle that the researcher used as a reference angle for this system are Left side Rollover angle 40.99- degree, Right Side Rollover angle 48.16 Degree, Rear Ward Rollover Angle 57.5. Degree and Forward rollover angle (53.66 degree). As a result, warning signals are activated. Therefore, the engine shutoff mechanism protects the possibility of the vehicle engine component parts damage. Like drivers and passengers, traffic accident is highly affecting the population of developing countries population.
