Abstract
A mounting assembly to mount a cooling fan assembly within a cooling package of a machine, is provided. The cooling package includes an inlet header, an outlet header, and a cooling core having a side extending between the inlet header and the outlet header. The mounting assembly includes a mounting plate coupled to the side of the cooling core. The mounting assembly further includes a mounting bracket coupled to the mounting plate and includes a mounting member for releasably coupling the cooling fan assembly within the cooling package.
Claims16
A mounting assembly to mount a cooling fan assembly within a cooling package of a machine, the cooling package including an inlet header, an outlet header, and a cooling core having a side extending between the inlet header and the outlet header, the mounting assembly comprising:
- a mounting plate coupled at the side of the cooling core;
- and
- a mounting bracket coupled to the mounting plate, wherein the mounting bracket includes a mounting member for releasably coupling the cooling fan assembly within the cooling package.
A cooling package for a machine, the cooling package comprising:
- a first cooling core;
- a second cooling core stacked together with the first cooling core along a plane;
- a cooling fan assembly;
- a mounting assembly for mounting the cooling fan assembly within the cooling package, the mounting assembly including:
- a mounting plate coupled between the first cooling core and the second cooling core;
- and
- a mounting bracket coupled to the mounting plate, wherein the mounting bracket includes a mounting member for releasably coupling the cooling fan assembly within the cooling package.
A machine comprising:
- an engine;
- a cooling package associated with the engine, the cooling package including:
- a first cooling core;
- a second cooling core;
- a third cooling core stacked together with the first cooling core and the second cooling core along a plane;
- a cooling fan assembly;
- a mounting assembly for mounting the cooling fan assembly within the cooling package, the mounting assembly including:
- a first mounting plate coupled between the first cooling core and the second cooling core;
- a second mounting plate coupled between the second cooling core and the third cooling core;
- and
- a mounting bracket coupled to the first mounting plate and the second mounting plate, wherein the mounting bracket includes a mounting member to releasably couple the cooling fan assembly within the cooling package.
