Abstract
A cooling module supporting structure includes a radiator support in which pin holes are formed on opposite sides in a vehicle width direction, and a cooling module in which pins are mounted in a vertical direction such that the pins protrude from the cooling module. In the cooling module supporting structure, each pin is inserted through corresponding one of the pin holes such that the cooling module is supported by the radiator support. In the cooling module supporting structure, at least one pin hole of the pin holes has a shape extending toward a rear side of a vehicle in the vehicle width direction from a position where the pin is inserted in a state where the cooling module is supported by the radiator support.
Claims5
A cooling module supporting structure comprising:
- a radiator support in which pin holes are formed on opposite sides in a vehicle width direction;
- and
- a cooling module in which pins are mounted in a vertical direction such that the pins protrude from the cooling module, wherein
- each pin is inserted through corresponding one of the pin holes such that the cooling module is supported by the radiator support, and
- at least one pin hole of the pin holes has a shape extending toward a rear side of a vehicle in the vehicle width direction from a position where the pin is inserted in a state where the cooling module is supported by the radiator support,
- wherein the pin hole has a shape that curves with respect to the vehicle width direction toward the rear side of the vehicle from the position where the pin is inserted in the state where the cooling module is supported by the radiator support.
