Under normal circumstances, private cars do not need to be disinfected. When we park our car in an open place, we can do a good job of ventilation. However, at present, in winter and spring communication, the car is a closed space where people are concentrated, which virtually provides a breeding environment for some viruses. This time, novel coronavirus is a new coronavirus strain, which has never been found in humans before. Experts said that the virus can survive for 5 days under suitable conditions, which can be described as tenacious vitality. If drivers and passengers return to their cars from public places, they must continue to wear masks on the cars and disinfect the cars with alcohol and disinfectant wipes when they get off.
But for some people, it is really impossible to form good habits, especially when the epidemic situation is so serious that masks and disinfectant alcohol have long been out of stock in many areas. In the case of having to go home, many new models are equipped with in-vehicle air purification management system (AQS). Through the strength of science and technology, the negative ion generator can absorb particles such as settled smoke and dust, eliminate allergens, bring a fresh and natural microclimate environment and ensure driving. Joint venture models, such as the brand-new Lincoln Flyer and Adventurer, are equipped with AAR cockpit "fresh air housekeeper" system, which can fully filter PM2.5? VOC and other harmful substances. Dongfeng Citroen C4L from the legal system is equipped with ultra-clean intelligent air conditioning system, which has three functions of "monitoring", "isolation" and "purification", automatically isolating dirty air, changing the circulation system from external circulation to internal circulation, isolating harmful gases outside the car and keeping the air inside the car clean.
Among China's independent brands, many car companies have introduced AQS systems, such as BYD's PM2.5 green cleaning system, which can effectively prevent PM2.5 and PM 10 from entering the car. Geely Automobile, the largest automobile company in China, also has many models equipped with AQS air quality management system, such as Geely Jiaji. When the outside air pollution is serious, AQS will automatically switch the air conditioner to internal circulation and automatically block the polluted air from entering the cockpit. At the same time, the PM2.5 four-layer air purifier is equipped with a four-layer filtration system including a primary filtration layer, a HEPA high-efficiency filtration layer, an activated carbon composite filter material and a plasma generator, which can ionize particles with a purification rate of 99% and can continuously purify the air inside the car.
The epidemic continues, some people complain, some people cry, but there are also a group of "autobots" in action. By 1, more than 40 car companies, spare parts suppliers and dealers have participated in the prevention and control work and donated relief materials and funds. Dongfeng Motor Group Co., Ltd., as a local car company in Hubei, donated 4 1 10,000 yuan like all walks of life in Wuhan. SAIC and its subsidiaries donated 22 million pounds in cash and medical supplies; Guangzhou Automobile Group donated a total of140,000 yuan; Honda Technology Research Industry Co., Ltd. and Honda Technology Research Industry (China) Investment Co., Ltd. donated 6.5438+million yuan to Hubei Red Cross Society; Changan Automobile Group donated 6,543,800 yuan; Jianghuai Automobile donated 6,543,800 yuan through Wuhan Red Cross Society; Weilai set up a special fund for anti-pneumonia user care of 5 million yuan, which was used during the novel coronavirus epidemic; Tesla donated a special fund of 5 million yuan to help the China municipal government support the CDC and other institutions to deal with the epidemic, and China District allocated a budget of 5 million yuan to subsidize the free use of super charging stations by car owners during the epidemic. As the leading enterprise of domestic automobile brands, Geely Holding Group and Li Shufu Public Welfare Foundation set up a special fund of 200 million yuan for the prevention and control of new pneumonia epidemic, which is used to support the prevention and control of new pneumonia epidemic in Hubei, Guangdong, Zhejiang, Henan and other regions of China. Geely Holding Group also indicated that it will further expand the fund scale according to the needs of epidemic prevention and control.
In order to fight the novel coronavirus epidemic, all car companies are trying their best to help the "war epidemic". In addition to donating funds and various medical materials, Geely Holding Group decided that Geely Automobile would invest 370 million yuan in advance to start the research and development of "all-round health car" with virus prevention function. This move not only means that Geely's definition of "driver safety" has increased to a new height, but also represents a new development direction in the field of automobile research and development.
This "all-around health car" will be different from the professional medical protection car, and it is a consumer-grade product mainly for ordinary consumers. It not only includes the functions of Geely automobile products to isolate harmful substances from the outside air and purify the air inside the car quickly and efficiently, but also breaks through the virus prevention function and technology in the car, effectively inhibiting and reducing the harm of the virus to the human body. At the same time, the materials in the car not only have high environmental protection and low emission, but also have the ability to inhibit bacteria or sterilize the surface by adding bacteriostatic and antibacterial substances to the air conditioning system, handles and buttons, thus achieving more practical "all-round health".
There has never been an example of a production car relying on car software and hardware to prevent viruses before. Geely Automobile's move undoubtedly provides a new perspective for automobile research and development, but the technical difficulties it will face and the cross-disciplinary cooperation projects it needs are unprecedented. Therefore, Geely Automobile will make full use of the global system and resources, cooperate with relevant professional medical institutions and scientific research and development institutions at home and abroad, and set up a special project team to tackle key technical problems. The launch of the research and development of "all-round healthy car" marks the first time that Geely Automobile put forward the concept of "not only the active and passive safety of the car itself, but also the health and safety of the occupants in the car", which will be a brand-new milestone in the development of health and safety products in the future.
From the "smog" and "PM2.5" in earlier years to this new pneumonia epidemic, it reminds us once again that air quality and environment are the foundation of our survival, and human beings should get along with nature on an equal footing. How to create a good living environment and build a safer and healthier car requires the joint efforts of everyone in every industry. In the face of the epidemic, we must unite, believe in science and do ourselves well, and we will certainly win this battle. "
