(3, operation and advantage)
Fig. 7 (a) is for illustrating the plan view that uses above-mentioned support 10 to be fastened to the fuel filter 8 of car body 14.In the fastened state of fuel filter 8, the arm 6 of the first support 1 is arranged on the position adjacent with pipe joint 8c, to form and separate between pipe joint 8c and Brake booster 9a.And, because the end of arm 6 is crooked towards pipe joint 8c, so protruding point 6c is arranged in the state that is projected into a side contrary with Brake booster 9a.
In above-mentioned state; as shown in the arrow A as shown in by Fig. 7 (a); in the situation that apply external force from the front side of vehicle to rear side, by the 1a of body supports portion or protector 3, external force is applied to from the filter head housings 8a of fuel filter 8 to the first support 1.When the first support 1 moves to the rear side of vehicle completely by external force, the protruding point 6c of arm 6 contacts with the front of Brake booster 9a.
Because protruding point 6c is the summit of the curved part of reinforcing part 6b, thus from the reaction force of Brake booster 9a, concentrate in the restricted area of protruding point 6c, and protruding point 6c is as " fulcrum of lever ".On the other hand, by the first engagement portion 4 and the second engagement portion 5, the external force that imposes on the first support 1 is transferred to the second support 2.In other words, two systems, as transmission path, by this path, are transferred to the second support 2 by external force.
The supporting surface 2d of the second support 2 is provided with higher rigidity, but its variant part 7 is provided with and can holds yielding characteristic.Therefore, owing to being input to the external force of the second support 2 from the first engagement portion 4, variant part 7 distortion, accordingly, the fastening surface 2b of the second support 2 is moved further in the backward directions of vehicle.Due to the distortion of above-mentioned variant part 7, the first engagement portion 4 is as " the power point of lever ", and the first support 1 moves in sense of rotation around protruding point 6c.
As a result, as shown in the arrow B as shown in by Fig. 7 (b), the fuel filter 8 that is fastened to the first support 1 also moves in sense of rotation together with the first support 1.Now, pipe joint 8c moves together with fuel filter 8 with the first support 1 in sense of rotation, accordingly, remains on the distance between pipe joint 8c and arm 6.And, because pipe joint 8c is positioned at the position adjacent with arm 6, so its displacement distance in sense of rotation is less.As mentioned above, before fuel filter 8 is rotated and afterwards, the distance between pipe joint 8c and arm 6 remains unchanged, and the distance of motion itself is less.Therefore, connected pipe joint 8c and fuel pipe 15 for example, do not contact with adjacent parts (, Brake booster 9a), and prevent from damaging them.
In Fig. 7 (b), by the indicated part of arrow C, be the part that is used as " fulcrum of lever " and is also used as the center of rotation of the first support 1.And as indicated in the arrow D in Fig. 7 (b), it forms crank shape joint 7a and 7b and crank portion 7c() deform, thus the relative angle between them changes, and therefore, forms the extruded shape of fore-and-aft direction at vehicle.
(1) as mentioned above,, according to the support 10 for fuel filter 8 of mode of execution, the first support 1 is provided with arm 6.Even external force is imposed on to fuel filter 8 from the front side of vehicle, arm 6 also contacts with the front of Brake booster 9a.Because arm 6 is set to separate between pipe joint 8c and Brake booster 9a, so prevent that pipe joint 8c from contacting with Brake booster 9a.As a result, can improve the protective value to the protective value of pipe joint 8c and the attachment portion between fuel filter 8 and fuel pipe 15.
In addition,, because arm 6 extends from the 1a of body supports portion of the first support 1 in the horizontal direction, so when arm 6 contacts with Brake booster 9a, arm 6 is as fulcrum, fuel filter 8 moves in its sense of rotation around this fulcrum.On the other hand, even if fuel filter 8 moves in sense of rotation, the amount of movement that is positioned near the pipe joint 8c of rotating center is also less, and the distance from rotating center to pipe joint 8c also remains unchanged.Therefore, can prevent safely that pipe joint 8c from contacting with Brake booster 9a, accordingly, can improve the protective value to pipe joint 8c and joint.
As shown in Figure 3, at above-mentioned support 10, be applied in fuel filter 8 wherein, electric device 8e, power socket 8f, feed cable etc. are arranged on filter 8b.For this reason, be difficult to pipe joint 8c is set on the end face of filter 8b, and pipe joint 8c is arranged on the outside of the cylinder face of filter 8b in plan view.In such fuel filter 8, be arranged on fuel filter 8 adjacent component around and be easy to disturb pipe joint 8c.When applying external force, have and can press fuel filter 8 and can damage the possibility of pipe joint 8c in unexpected direction.
In order addressing this problem, support 10 to be fabricated to and when applying external force, can to allow fuel filter 8 to move in sense of rotation, and can suitably guide its movement direction.Therefore, can prevent safely damaging pipe joint 8c and prevent that it from disturbing adjacent parts.
(2) and, the second support 2 of support 10 is provided with variant part 7, this variant part has when external force is imposed on to fuel filter 8 can hold yielding characteristic.Therefore, the fastening surface 1b of the first support 1 can move to the rear side of vehicle, and accordingly, the first support 1 can move rotatably.As a result, can improve the protective value to pipe joint 8c and attachment portion.
And the first support 1 and the second support 2 are located fastening in two parts (that is, the first engagement portion 4 and the second engagement portion 5).And, the Rigidity and strength of the supporting surface 2d for connecting between the second engagement portion 5 and car body engagement portion 2a is set as to the Rigidity and strength higher than variant part 7.For this reason, even, after the variant part 7 of the second support 2 deforms, the first support 1 can be fastened to car body 14 safely.In other words, when the first support 1 moves in sense of rotation, can prevent that the second support 2 from unclamping from car body 14, and can prevent that the second support from spreading in the unexpected position of engine compartment 20 inside.
The amount of deformation of variant part 7 is corresponding with the amount of movement of the fastening surface 1b of the first support 1, and this amount of movement is corresponding with the traveling angle of the first support 1 in sense of rotation.Therefore,, by regulating the amount of deformation (in other words, transmitting the Rigidity and strength of the amount of deformation of variant part 7) of variant part 7, can be controlled in the angle of rotation of the first support 1 while applying external force.
The variant part 7 of (3) second supports 2 is being fastened between the fastening surface 2b and car body engagement portion 2a of the first engagement portion 4.For example, compare being fastened to the fastening surface 2c of the second engagement portion 5 and the situation between the 2a of car body engagement portion with variant part 7, by this structure, the first support 1 can easily rotation in the direction of arrow B.
In other words, in the situation that variant part 7 is positioned at the position away from the protruding point 6c of the rotating center as the first support 1, can strengthen the deformability of the second support 2 when applying external force.As a result, the first support 1 can easily move rotatably, and can improve the protective value to pipe joint 8c and attachment portion.
(4) further,, in above-mentioned support 10, the end of arm 6 has the shape towards pipe joint 8c bending, as shown in Figure 7 (a).Do not have the situation of the arm 6 of curved section 6a to compare with use, by this structure, the first support 1 can easily rotate, and when arm 6 contacts with Brake booster 9a, can improve the function as " fulcrum of lever (in plan view, being rotating fulcrum) ".Therefore, can improve the protective value to pipe joint 8c and attachment portion.
