    This document provides information about key vehicle components: 1) Batteries store chemical energy that can be converted to electrical current, with lead-acid batteries being a common rechargeable type. Brakes use devices like discs or drums to slow or stop a vehicle's axles or wheels. Axles maintain the position of wheels and support the vehicle's weight and forces from movement. 2) An alternator converts mechanical energy from an engine into electrical current using a rotating mechanism, with common types including those for cars, diesel engines, marine vehicles, and radio transmission.

    BATTERY
    • An electric battery, electric accumulator or simply battery or accumulator, is a device
    that consists of two or more electrochemical cells that can convert stored chemical
    energy into electrical current.

    BREAKS
    • A brake is a device used to stop or slow down a vehicle, generally an axle, drive shaft, or drum.

    • TYPES OF BREAKS

    Disc brakes
    When you step on the pedal, a liquid is released that goes to the pistons, exerting a force on the pads.
    Drum breakes
    When we step on the brake, a pair of shoes activates a drum associated with each tire that produces
    friction, which causes us to gradually lose speed.
    Abs brakes
    When we step on the brakes, the wheel speed sensors prevent the wheels from locking and
    thus maintaining driving stability.

    Hand brake
    When we pull the lever, to which it is attached, it communicates with the device that makes the
    car stop completely
    AXLE
    • The axles of a vehicle are the lines of transverse direction with respect to which the wheels
    turn when the vehicle is moving straight ahead.
    •  FUNCTION

    • Axles are components of the mechanism of a vehicle. The axles maintain the relative
    position of the wheels to each other and the wheels to the chassis of the vehicle. In most
    vehicles, the wheels are the only part that touch the ground and the axles must support the
    weight of the vehicle and its additional load in this transport, together with other stresses
    such as acceleration and braking forces.
    ALTERNATOR
    • An alternator is an electrical generator that converts mechanical energy to electrical energy in the
    form of alternating current. ... In principle, any AC electrical generator can be called an alternator, but
    usually the term refers to small rotating machines driven by automotive and other internal combustion
    engines.

    • Types:
    • Car alternators.

    • Diesel-electric alternators.

    • Marine alternators.

    • Brushless alternators.

    • alternators for radio transmission with low band radiofrequency.
