Claims20
A mounting device for an upper module of a vehicle, the mounting device comprising:
- a base mounted on an under body of the vehicle;
- a main rod rotatably disposed on the base and having a head configured to pass through a mounting bracket mounted on the upper module of the vehicle or to be caught and fixed by the mounting bracket according to a rotation of the main rod;
- an operating lever having an end portion coupled to the main rod, the operating lever being configured to rotate the main rod to couple or separate the head to or from the mounting bracket, wherein, in a state in which the head is coupled to the mounting bracket, the operating lever is configured to move the main rod down at a predetermined height;
- a plate coupled to a bottom surface of the base, wherein protrusions are formed on the plate at regular intervals to protrude downward at predetermined heights along a circumference;
- and
- a fastening protrusion disposed at the operating lever, wherein the fastening protrusion is configured to be caught on the protrusions to move the main rod down in the state in which the head is coupled to the mounting bracket.
A mounting device for an upper module of a vehicle, the mounting device comprising:
- a base mounted on an under body of the vehicle;
- a mounting bracket mounted on the upper module of the vehicle, wherein a fixing hole having a shape of an elongated hole is disposed in the mounting bracket;
- a main rod rotatably disposed on the base and having a head disposed at an upper end portion of the main rod to have a cross section corresponding to the fixing hole, wherein the head is configured to pass through or be caught on the fixing hole according to a rotation of the main rod so that the upper module is unlocked or locked, respectively, with respect to the under body;
- a damper configured to be inserted into the main rod and inserted and fixed between the main rod and the fixing hole while spread outward in a state in which the main rod is rotated;
- and
- an operating lever having an end portion coupled to the main rod, the operating lever being configured to rotate the main rod to couple or separate the head to or from the mounting bracket.
A vehicle comprising:
- a vehicle body comprising an under body and an upper module configured to be mounted on the under body;
- a mounting bracket mounted on the upper module, wherein a fixing hole having a shape of an elongated hole is disposed in the mounting bracket;
- a base mounted on the under body;
- an upper flange and a lower flange disposed to extend from an upper end portion and a lower end portion of the base parallel to the ground, respectively;
- a main rod rotatably disposed on the base and having a head disposed at an upper end portion of the main rod to have a cross section corresponding to the fixing hole, wherein the head is configured to pass through or to be caught and fixed on the fixing hole of the mounting bracket according to a rotation of the main rod so that the upper module is unlocked or locked, respectively, with respect to the under body and wherein the main rod is configured to pass through the upper flange and the lower flange;
- and
- an operating lever having an end portion coupled to the main rod, the operating lever being configured to rotate the main rod to couple or separate the head of the main rod to or from the mounting bracket.
