Motor vehicle façade module
The present invention relates to a motor vehicle facade module (1) comprising a support piece (3, 5, 7, 9) comprising: a first part (11) comprising an upper crossmember (3) having a first reinforcement (10), a second part (13) made of plastic and comprising: lateral uprights (7), and at least two portions (15) configured for assembly with the first part (11), the at least one portion (15) comprising a second reinforcement (12).
VEHICLE FRONT STRUCTURE
A vehicle front structure includes a radiator support upper, a first connection member and a second connection member. The radiator support upper is provided with a connected portion on an inner side with respect to both ends of the radiator support upper in a vehicle width direction. When viewed in a vehicle longitudinal direction, the first connection member connects the connected portion with a bumper reinforcement in an oblique direction such that a portion of the first connection member, connected to the connected portion, is located on an inner side in the vehicle width direction with respect to a portion of the first connection member, connected to the bumper reinforcement. The second connection member connects the radiator support upper with a vehicle component. A portion of the second connection member, connected to the radiator support upper, is located on a central axis of the first connection member.
ELECTRIC WORK VEHICLE
An electric work vehicle includes a travel battery, an auxiliary battery, a motor drivable on electric power supplied by the travel battery, a travel device drivable by the motor, a voltage converter positioned forward of the travel battery to step down a voltage of electric power from the travel battery and supply the electric power to the auxiliary battery, and a radiator positioned forward of the travel battery, wherein the voltage converter and the radiator are laterally next to each other in a plan view.
Method for joining a hydro-formed tube to an extrusion
An assembly is provided that includes a front end support frame and radiator support beam. The front end support frame has an end that defines an opening that extends between two facing walls across an inside wall of the tubular structure. The radiator support beam is assembled into the opening in the end of the front end support frame and is attached to the two facing walls. The front end support frame is a hydro-formed tube and the radiator support beam is an extruded part. The radiator support beam includes at least one internal reinforcement wall and an outside wall of the front end support frame is fastened with flow drilling screws to the internal reinforcement wall.
VEHICLE BODY COVER STRUCTURE FOR SADDLED VEHICLE
To provide a vehicle body cover structure for a saddled vehicle, capable of achieving restrictive improvements on rigidity of the vehicle body cover. A vehicle body cover structure for a saddled vehicle includes a radiator shroud formed of a fiber-reinforced resin covering an outside of a vehicle body. The fiber-reinforced resin is formed of a cloth woven from warp threads and filling threads formed of fibers. In the vehicle body cover structure, the radiator shroud has the cloth disposed thereon. The cloth has disposed thereon a bisector that divides an angle formed between the warp threads and the filling threads into two equal parts. The bisector is disposed so as to extend along a line segment that connects between a third mounting portion to be fixed to a vehicle body side and a front end portion that is farthest from the third mounting portion.
BODY COVER STRUCTURE FOR SADDLE RIDING VEHICLE
Inside a radiator shroud covering an outside of an engine or an outside of a radiator supposed to get hot relating to the engine, a first protruding portion and a second protruding portion are provided. An abutting surface to abut on the engine or the radiator is provided at a distal end of each of the first protruding portion and the second protruding portion. The first protruding portion and the second protruding portion are made of resin material with higher heat resistance than a shroud body of the radiator shroud.
Body mount assembly and a method for mounting a radiator assembly on a vehicle frame before attaching a body structure to the frame
A method according to the principles of the present disclosure includes fastening a body mount assembly to a frame of a vehicle, where the body mount assembly includes a radiator support bracket. The method further includes mounting a radiator assembly onto the radiator support bracket after fastening the body mount assembly to the frame, and fastening a body structure to the body mount assembly.
Structure for mounting vehicle heat exchanger
Disclosed herein is a structure for mounting a heat exchanger in a vehicle. The structure includes a shroud, and a mount supporting a supported portion and allowing vertical vibrations of the supported portion with respect to each side of the shroud in a vehicle width direction. The supported portion is provided on each side of the heat exchanger in the vehicle width direction. The mount body of the mount is mounted in a mounting portion located higher than a fixed portion on the side of the shroud in the vehicle width direction. The fixed portion is fixed to a body member of the vehicle. A receiver supporting a lower surface of the mount body serves as the mounting portion. A fixing bracket for fixing the mount body to the side of the shroud is provided in front of or behind the mount body of the mount in the vehicle.
HEADLAMP FASTENING SYSTEM FOR MOTOR VEHICLES AND METHOD
A headlamp fastening system for a vehicle is provided herein. The headlamp fastening system includes a support structure, a headlamp structure, and an alignment element. The alignment element is configured to align and fix the headlamp structure with the support structure with respect to the z-direction of the vehicle. The alignment element holds the sup port structure and the headlamp in an alignment position. In the alignment position the support structure and the headlamp structure are relatively displaceable in the x-, y-, and z- direction relative to one another. The alignment element fixes the support structure and the headlamp in the fixed position, wherein, upon the alignment element fixing the support structure and the headlamp structure relative to one another with respect to the z-direction, the support structure and the headlamp structure simultaneously become fixed relative to one another in the x- and y-direction.
STRUCTURE FOR MOUNTING VEHICLE HEAT EXCHANGER
Disclosed herein is a structure for mounting a heat exchanger in a vehicle. The structure includes a shroud, and a mount supporting a supported portion and allowing vertical vibrations of the supported portion with respect to each side of the shroud in a vehicle width direction. The supported portion is provided on each side of the heat exchanger in the vehicle width direction. The mount body of the mount is mounted in a mounting portion located higher than a fixed portion on the side of the shroud in the vehicle width direction. The fixed portion is fixed to a body member of the vehicle. A receiver supporting a lower surface of the mount body serves as the mounting portion. A fixing bracket for fixing the mount body to the side of the shroud is provided in front of or behind the mount body of the mount in the vehicle.
