MOUNTING AND STABILIZING BRACKET FOR THE CAR GRILLE

Abstract

A bracket mounted on a car ventilation grille, in particular for fragrance carriers, consisting of a frame and fastening and stabilizing elements, characterized in that the frame is a U-shaped semi-closed structure provided with two arms, and the fastening and stabilizing elements are at least two sliding flexible fastening pads with a thickness less than or equal to the distance between the frame arms, at least one of which is applied to the first frame arm and at least one of which is applied to the second frame arm.

Claims

1. A bracket configured to be mounted on a car ventilation grille, comprising a frame and fastening and stabilizing elements, characterized in that the frame is a U-shaped semi-closed structure provided with two arms, and the fastening and stabilizing elements are at least two sliding flexible fastening pads with a thickness less than or equal to the distance between the frame arms, at least one of which is applied to the first frame arm and at least one of which is applied to the second frame arm.

2. The bracket according to claim 1, characterized in that the thickness of the mounting pads is less than or equal to half the distance between the arms of the frame.

3. The bracket according to claim 1, characterized in that the fastening and stabilizing elements are four sliding flexible fastening pads arranged in pairs on the frame arms.

Description

[0013] The subject-matter of the invention is depicted in the examples shown in the drawing wherein FIG. 1 schematically presents the bracket according to the invention; FIG. 2 shows a view of a single bracket frame arm according to the invention; FIG. 3 shows a cross-sectional view of the bracket according to the invention, detailing the thickness of the basic pads; FIG. 4 shows a cross-sectional view of the bracket according to the invention detailing the thickness of the complementary pads.

EXAMPLE 1

[0014] Car grille bracket according to the invention, shown in FIG. 1-4, is designed specifically for mounting an air freshener or fragrance carrier.

[0015] As shown in FIG. 1, the bracket according to the invention consists of the frame 1 provided with fastening and stabilizing elements, which is a U-shaped semi-closed structure provided with two arms. In this embodiment, the frame is wooden, while other materials can be used to make it, e.g. plastic, metal, minerals, glass and other materials of natural origin.

[0016] Whereas said fastening and stabilizing elements are sliding flexible fastening pads 2, 3, 4 and 5 applied to the frame arms 1, wherein the pads 2 and 5 are applied to the first frame arm 1 and the pads 3 and 4 are applied to the second frame arm 1 (FIG. 2).

[0017] In this non-limiting embodiment, the pads 2, 3, 4 and 5 are in the form of rubber rings, while other materials (e.g. silicone or plastic) can be used to make them. Due to the flexibility of the pads 2 and 3, the frame 1 of the bracket minimises the transmission of vibrations to the edge of the grille on which the bracket is fixed.

[0018] The addition of pads 4 and 5 reinforces the bracket stabilizing effect by allowing the frame 1 of the bracket to be fixed and stabilized even on a sheet of paper. The mounting and stabilizing effect of the frame is achieved by moving and placing the individual mounting pads into the optimal position.

[0019] In this non-limiting embodiment, the thickness of the mounting pads 2, 3, 4 and 5 applied to the arms of the frame 1 of the bracket is ½ A, i.e. half the distance between the arms of the frame 1. Whereas the maximum thickness of mounting pads 2, 3, 4 and 5 placed on the arms of the frame 1 of the bracket cannot exceed the value equal to A— i.e. the distance between the arms of the frame 1 (FIGS. 3 and 4).

EXAMPLE 2

[0020] The bracket as in embodiment 1, except that the thickness of the mounting pads 2, 3, 4 and 5 applied to the frame arms 1 of the bracket is equal to A.

EXAMPLE 3

[0021] The bracket as in embodiment 1, except that the thickness of the mounting pads 2, 3, 4 and 5 applied to the frame arms 1 of the bracket is ¼ A.

EXAMPLE 4

[0022] The bracket as in embodiment 1, except that the pads 2, 3, 4 and 5 are in the form of silicone rings and have a thickness of ¾ A.
