Abstract
The vehicular engine mounting structure includes a liquid sealed type bush instead of a rubber embedded bush. The mounting structure also includes: a chassis bracket having a circular supporter for receiving the bush. Two attachment parts of the chassis bracket are coupled to at a front side member. Vertical reinforcing members and a connection reinforcing member for supporting the vertical reinforcing members are installed in the front side member.
Claims14
An engine mounting structure, comprising:
- a chassis bracket adapted to be coupled to a front side member and a fender apron inner panel;
- a liquid sealed type bush mounted within the chassis bracket, where said bush is coupled to an engine via an engine bracket;
- two vertical reinforcing members installed at an inner side of the front side member;
- and
- a connection reinforcing member for supporting the vertical reinforcing members;
- wherein said chassis bracket comprises a supporting part formed at a center thereof for receiving the bush;
- attachment parts formed at both sides of the supporting part for being bolted to said front side member;
- and a stay formed between the attachment parts for being bolted to the fender apron inner panel.
