Definitions
- the present invention relates to a device and a method for supporting a vehicle component.
- the device is used in supporting parts of the engine assembly or of the transmission, during maintenance or repair operations on a motor vehicle.
- timing belt or of other auxiliary components needs to be performed periodically (approximately every 100,000 km) and requires the intervention of specialised operators, able to operate in narrow positions between the engine side and the bodywork of the vehicle.
- the operator In order to access the engine assembly, the operator has to detach its support, which is screwed on the side of the engine and fastened on the bodywork. During this step, the operator has to support the engine manually and set the oil sump on a lift (e.g. a lift truck). In this way, the engine assembly remains fastened only to the sides of the transmission and it can be actuated by means of the lift, providing the operator with the space needed to work.
- a lift e.g. a lift truck
- Some automotive manufacturers produce devices for supporting the engine assembly that are differentiated on the basis of individual motor vehicle models. Said devices are used to support the engine in such a way as to be able to raise the motor vehicle in the most comfortable position for working.
- each individual motor vehicle model requires a personalised support.
- the anchoring flanges are different to be able to adapt to the lower beds and require long time to be fastened.
- the technical task at the basis of the present invention is to propose a device for supporting a vehicle component, in particular for the engine, which overcomes the aforementioned drawbacks of the prior art.
- an object of the present invention is to propose a universal support device usable with any vehicle model.
- An additional object of the present invention is to make available a device that is structurally simple and practical to use.
- Another object of the present invention is to present a stabilised and safe support device.
- Another object of the present invention is to make available a support device that is light and compact.
- the number 1 indicates a support device for a component 16 of a vehicle 21 only partially shown.
- the device 1 is applicable to the engine assembly of a motor vehicle during maintenance or repair operations.
- the device 1 comprises a load-bearing structure 1a.
- the load-bearing structure 1a is a crossmember extending along a predetermined direction 22.
- the load-bearing structure 1a is provided with an opening 3.
- said opening 3 is elongated in the predetermined direction 22.
- the opening 3 is obtained in such a way as to traverse the load-bearing structure 1a from a lower surface 27a to an upper surface 27b.
- the opening 3 is obtained at the centre of the load-bearing structure 1a and its length is between 35% and 65% of the length of the load-bearing structure 1a. More preferably, the length of the opening 3 is equal to about half the length of the load-bearing structure 1a.
- the device 1 can be anchored to the vehicle 21 by anchoring means 17.
- the anchoring means 17 comprise a first pin 4 that can be fastened to the vehicle 21 and a locking element 23.
- the first pin 4 passes through the opening 3.
- the first pin 4 is free to slide inside the opening 3 along the predetermined direction 22.
- the first pin 4 is fastened inside the opening 3 by means of the locking element 23.
- the first pin 4 presents a first curved end 4a hitchable to the vehicle 21.
- said first curved end 4a is directly hitchable to the vehicle 21.
- the first pin 4 is connected to a stretched belt that can be hitched to the vehicle 21.
- the belt presents a ring in which the first curved end 4a of the first pin 4 is inserted and a hook that can be hitched to the vehicle 21.
- said belt is made of steel or fabric and its maximum length is approximately 50 cm.
- the locking element 23 is constituted by a nut 12a which can be screwed to a second threaded end 4b of the first pin 4 by a manual handle 12.
- the first pin 4 presents at least one slot and the locking element 23 is constituted by a slit pin insertable into said slot.
- a lift 2 which can be positioned under the component 16 to support it.
- the lift 2 is provided with a support 10 for the component 16.
- the lift 2 is of the pantograph type.
- the pantograph lift 2 is provided with a screw 11 and with an adjustment knob 18 to lock its extension in the desired position.
- the lift 2 is a pneumatic telescopic cylinder.
- the lift 2 is electical or hydraulic and can be operated manually or automatically.
- a stabiliser assembly 20 is pivotally hinged on the load-bearing structure 1a in order to provide stability to the device 1 in the operative configuration.
- the stabiliser assembly 20 comprises a second pin 5 rotating within a hole 13 drilled at the second end 25b of the load-bearing structure 1a.
- the hole 13 is drilled in such a way as to traverse the load-bearing structure 1a from the lower surface 27a to the upper surface 27b.
- the second pin 5 is substantially parallel to the first pin 4.
- the stabiliser assembly 20 further comprises a sleeve 6 integral with the second pin 5 and a bar 7 slidable inside the sleeve 6.
- a sleeve 6 integral with the second pin 5 and a bar 7 slidable inside the sleeve 6.
- two props 8 and 8a able to be positioned under the vehicle 21.
- Said props 8 and 8a are substantially parallel to the first pin 4 and to the second pin 5.
- a first prop 8a provided with a first support foot 9a, is at a first end 7a of the bar 7.
- a second prop 8, provided with a second support foot 9, is at a second end 7b of the bar 7.
- the - sleeve 6 and the bar 7 have rectangular or square or, in any case, non-circular cross section to prevent the bar 7 from rotating within the sleeve 6.
- the device 1 is positioned under the vehicle 21.
- the first pin 4 is fastened to the vehicle 21 hithcing the first curved end 4a to the cross member 15 of the engine or, in general, to the lower bodywork of the vehicle 21.
- the first curved end 4a is directly inserted into a hole 14 (or in a recess) of the cross member 15 of the engine.
- the device 1 is fastened to the vehicle 21 in a position of the bodywork not easily accessible, that means far from the component 16, the first curved end 4a is inserted into the ring of the stretched belt and the hook of the stretched belt is hitched to the vehicle 21.
- the second threaded end 4b is inserted into the opening 3 from the upper surface 27b to the lower surface 27a of the load-bearing structure 1a.
- the first pin 4 is made to slide inside the opening 3 along the predetermined direction 22 until the -lift 2 is located under the component 16 (e.g. the oil sump).
- the first pin 4 is fastened inside the opening 3 by screwing the nut 12a to the second threaded end 4b by means of the manual handle 12.
- the nut 12a is screwed until it adheres to the lower surface 27a of the load-bearing structure 1a.
- pantograph lift 2 is extended and locked in the desired position, in which the support 10 is placed in contact with the component 16 to support it, acting on the knob 18 for adjusting the screw 11.
- the device is structurally simple because, for anchoring to the vehicle, it uses the first pin (in case equipped with the stretched belt) inserted into the opening and fastened thereto.
- the device is therefore light, compact and easy to operate even by a single operator.
- the device described herein is universal, i.e. it can be employed in any vehicle model. Indeed, adaptation to the particular lower bed of the vehicle is assured first of all by the elongated opening, which allows the first pin to slide until appropriately positioning the lift under the component.
- the first curved end of the pin allows the device to be anchored in any area of the lower bodywork of the vehicle or to tie rods of the vehicle itself (in case by means of the stretched belt), avoiding the use of personalised flanges as takes place in currently known device.
- the device is stabilised thanks to the use of the stabiliser assembly, pivotally hinged on the load-bearing structure.
- This enables to eliminate roll and to make the device stable and safe in operative configuration.
- the stabiliser assembly is adaptable to any vehicle model because the support feet can be appropriately positioned under the vehicle bed making the second pin rotate and making the bar slide inside the sleeve.
- the particular conformation of the stabiliser assembly allows to achieve excellent stability of the device even in the presence of highly irregular and wavy vehicle beds (e.g. with passages of exhaust, fuel or brake pipes).
- the device also enables the operator to work comfortably (even when the vehicle is positioned near the ground) because the lift can be operated acting on the adjustment knob by means of a wrench with extension.
