Backbone chassis : ウィキペディア英語版 | Backbone chassis
Backbone tube chassis is a type of an automobile construction chassis that is similar to the body-on-frame design. Instead of a two-dimensional ladder-type structure, it consists of a strong tubular backbone (usually rectangular in cross section) that connects the front and rear suspension attachment areas. A body is then placed on this structure. ==Design== The backbone chassis is a design feature of Czech Tatra heavy trucks (cross-country, military etc.). Hans Ledwinka developed this style of chassis for the Tatra 11 in 1923.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url= http://www.tatratrucks.com/ )〕 He further enhanced the design with 6x4 model Tatra 26, which had excellent offroad abilities. This type of chassis is also often found on some sports cars. It does not provide protection against side collisions, and thus has to be combined with a body that would compensate for this shortcoming. Examples of cars using a backbone chassis are De Tomaso Mangusta, DeLorean DMC-12, Lloyd 600, Lotus Elan, Lotus Esprit and Europa, Škoda 420 Popular, Tatra T-87, Tatra T111, Tatra T148, Tatra T815 etc., as well as TVR S1. Some cars also use a backbone as a part of the chassis to strengthen it; examples include the Volkswagen Beetle, where the transmission tunnel forms a backbone.
