Abstract
Disclosed is a mounting structure in which an upper radiator of a vehicle is mounted on a chassis. The mounting structure includes: a frame installed right and left sides of an upper tank of a radiator; an insulator inserted on the frame, and having a groove for receiving a pin in its center; a mounting hole formed on a front end carrier positioned on an upper portion of the radiator; a pin inserted into the groove for receiving pin and the mounting hole, for fixing the upper portion of the radiator in the front end carrier. Therefore, the radiator is easily joined to a chassis.
Claims8
A mounting structure for a vehicle radiator, comprising:
- a generally U-shaped frame, said frame including a base and a pair of side walls connected thereto at opposite edges of the base and extending generally perpendicularly therefrom, said frame being installed on at least one of a right and left side of an upper tank of a radiator, said frame having a joining groove on each side wall;
- an insulator having a groove and having a joining protuberance on opposite sides thereof, said insulator insertable on said frame, so that each joining protuberance is joined to a corresponding joining groove;
- a separate pin insertable into said groove;
- and
- a mounting hole formed on a front end carrier positioned adjacent an upper portion of the radiator;
- wherein said pin is insertable through the mounting hole and into the groove, said pin configured to affix the upper portion of the radiator to the front end carrier.
A mounting structure for mounting a vehicle radiator to a front end carrier of a vehicle, the front end carrier having a mounting hole, said mounting structure comprising:
- a frame installed on at least one of a right and left side of an upper tank of a radiator, said frame including a base and a pair of side walls connected thereto at opposite edges of the base and extending generally perpendicular thereto to define a generally U-shaped cross-sectional configuration, said frame having a joining groove on each side wall;
- an insulator having a groove and having a joining protuberance on opposite sides thereof, said insulator being inserted in the frame, so that each joining protuberance is joined to a corresponding joining groove;
- and
- a separate pin configured to affix the radiator to the front end carrier, said pin being insertable into said groove;
- wherein when an upper portion of the radiator is positioned adjacent the front end carrier, said pin is insertable through the mounting hole and into said groove to affix the radiator to the front end carrier.
