The Hansa Type H Treff-Aß was a luxury vehicle from the Hansa-Lloyd works in Bremen-Hastedt and Varel .

history

In 1920 Hansa-Lloyd presented the type H 18/60 PS Treff-Aß . In addition to trucks with gasoline or electric drives, the plant produced only a few of these heavy passenger vehicles.

In 1923 the car, whose wheelbase and length had been increased, received a more powerful engine. So it was built in small numbers until 1925. Then they were replaced by the eight-cylinder Trumpf-Aß models .

The bodies came from Karosserie Seegers from Leipzig , Karosserie Rembrandt from Bremen or Glasses-Karosserie from Dresden .

Engine, transmission and chassis

The car initially had a four-cylinder in-line engine of its own design with an output of 54 hp (36 kW) at 2200 rpm. With a bore of 100 mm and a stroke of 130 mm, it had a displacement of 4.1 l. The valves on the side were operated by a camshaft located below ( SV valve control ), which was driven by spur gears .

The engine of the larger successor from 1923 had a displacement of 4.5 l (bore × stroke = 105 mm × 130 mm) and developed 65 hp (48 kW) at 2400 rpm. This engine also had side valves.

The top speed of the Treff-Aß, manufactured until 1922, was 92 km / h, the successor reached 100 km / h.

All models were equipped with unsynchronized four-speed transmissions, the gear lever of which was in the middle of the car (stick shift). The rear wheels were driven.

Both axles of the H-types were rigid axles on semi-elliptical longitudinal leaf springs, the springs of the rear axle were screwed to the axle bridge from below ( underslung ). The service brake worked mechanically on the cardan shaft , the handbrake on the rear wheels. The joints and bearings had grease nipples for the supply of grease.

Bodies

Both H types were available as four-seat sports phaetons , seven-seat touring cars or four-door sedans ; the doors were hung at the front. All the bodies had a vertical radiator grille between the individual headlights and a vertical windshield .
