FRONT FASTENER SYSTEM FÄSTNINGSSYSTEM FÖR STÄNKSKYDD

The invention relates to a mudguard fitting system according to the preamble of the independent claim below, which is particularly suitable for lorries and their trailers. The system of the invention enables easier and faster installation of mudguards on the mudguard support bar.

Conventionally, the truck's mudguard is attached to one or more horizontal bars, transverse to the vehicle body, transverse to the direction of travel of 10 vehicles. Generally, the mudguard is attached to two support rods at the front and rear of the wheel axle, each rod having at least two arcuate brackets rotating about the support rod. Thus, such a system has at least four fasteners traditionally attached to the fender at both ends of the arc by a fastening member such as a bolt. If the mudguard is short, it may be attached to only one support bar. Such a system is mounted, for example, by fastening the clips loosely at both ends, after which the clips are threaded from the support bar along a horizontal path of motion. The mudguard is then correctly positioned and the brackets:. 20 bolts tightened. Sometimes, it is not possible to · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · In this case, only one of the bracket bolts can be pre-assembled and loosely enough to fit between the bracket • · · and the mudguard. Then attach the other end of the bracket arch and tighten the bolts.

Fender mounts have previously been mounted directly on holes in the mudguard, for example bolts. It is also known to attach a fender to the base to which the actual fastener is then secured. Such a base may have an adjusting member, such as a rail to which the bracket is to be attached, and where the position of the bracket 2 110249 can be changed. Such a mechanism often allows for the necessary adjustment of the fender position with respect to the tire.

Known fender attachment mechanisms such as those described above are often 5 cumbersome and slow to install. Usually, the bracket has two bolts, which are difficult and time-consuming to tighten and tighten, often in tight spaces between the car body and tire. Bolts and other fasteners are also a cost factor. All the additional equipment, such as the aforementioned rails or other supports, which have to be secured to the mudguard 10 before mounting the brackets, is becoming more laborious and costly. Complex mechanisms are prone to mechanical as well as corrosion damage.

It is an object of the present invention to provide a system and method for minimizing the above-mentioned problems in the prior art.

The aim is, in particular, to make the fender mounting system easier and quicker to install than the existing systems, enabling the fender to be installed:. with fewer steps, such as fewer bolts or similar • · * · ,, 20 fasteners. Simple installation takes less time and thus saves * ·: **: costs.

• · · * ·

Ml t I | '· .. · * A more specific goal is to provide a more affordable fender mounting system which, due to its simple construction, saves material costs. The goal »· ;;; 25 is also a more durable structure.

The foregoing drawbacks can be eliminated or reduced and the above-mentioned "·" objectives are achieved by a system according to the invention, which is characterized by what is defined in the characterizing part of the independent claim 30 below.

3 110249 Throughout this text, the term "fender anchorage system" refers to the means by which the fender is attached to the mudguard support bar attached to the vehicle or trailer body. The support bar is preferably a circle of substantially complete cross-section, but other shaped bars are suitable for use with the system of the invention. Preferably, however, at least substantially the cross-sectional surface of the support bar is substantially curved. The first side of the fitted fender is the side facing away from the wheel and the other side is its side facing the wheel. The upper body is a bracket 10 made of a substantially plate-like material, with a curved bracket portion formed in the central portion to secure the system of the invention to a support bar. Outwardly of both ends of the arch of the upper body retaining member are the main body members of the upper body. The diameter of the mudguard support bar means the imaginary diameter of the plane defined by the perpendicular cross-section of the support bar in so far as the outer surface of the support bar is intended to abut the curved bracket of the upper body. The lower piece is a kind of counter piece to the upper part that is placed on the tire side of the mudguard. The base member is made of a material of substantially sheet metal. The fastening means are, for example, bolts and nuts, but may also be other means for fastening different pieces to each other. Elongated and substantially formed in the mudguard:. The 20 narrow apertures for the first and second attachment members are, for example, a plastic: · · * elongated opening in the rotational direction of the tire through which the attachment means for the waste system are to be inserted. Weakening point ...; refers to a weakening, such as a thinning, a hole or a material made of a weaker material, made to a curved holder portion which is slightly more elastic than its surroundings. However, the attenuation must be able to withstand the normal operation of the system. A stiffener formed at some point means an arrangement by which said t «!. soon make it less environmentally friendly.

A typical mudguard attachment system according to the invention is for attaching a 30 mudguard to a mudguard support bar, preferably of substantially circular cross section 4,110,249. The fastening system comprises at least an upper and a lower piece, as well as first and second fastening means. The upper part is placed on the flat side of the fender, for example made of plastic, away from the tire and the lower piece against it, on the tire side of the fender. Both the mudguard and the upper and lower members are provided with openings for fastening means. The aperture formed in the mudguard is elongated, i.e. typically about 15 to 20 centimeters long in the direction of rotation of the vehicle tire and about one centimeter wide. There may be more openings in the mudguard, that is to say, each of the two fastening members, so that the openings may be shorter. With said fastening means, the upper and lower pieces 10 are fixed to each other and at the same time to the mudguard. Through the first ends of the top and bottom pieces, the first fastening members, typically a bolt and a nut, are inserted. In the fastening system according to the invention, one end portion of the upper piece is formed as second fastening members and an opening is provided at one end of the lower piece for these other fastening members. When the system is mounted, the other fastening members 15, i.e. the other end of the top piece, are fitted at least partially through the elongated opening of the mudguard and the other fastening members of the lower piece to one side of the mudguard to secure the upper and lower pieces.

... The attachment effect of the other attachment members is based on the application of opposing clamping forces on the first side and the lower part of the mudguard • · _; ·. 20 when attempting to pivot the other major part of the upper body relative to the mudguard. Then: · · ·: · ·: at least one point of the second main part of the upper body presses the fender on its first side towards the lower body and at least one point of the second securing means presses the lower body towards the fender. Very preferably, the second fastening members are one and the same with the upper body and are arranged stationary with respect to the second main part of the upper body. The system components are > preferably metal, such as stainless steel.

A typical top member comprises an arcuate bracket member known per se, which is intended to be positioned around the fender support bar so that the support bar is between the arch of the bracket member and the fender. The inner surface of the bracket portion must have a radius of curvature slightly greater than the outer surface of the fender support bar so that the support bar fits, at least in part, into the bracket portion. The arc of the inner surface of the holder portion and the surface of the support bar need not necessarily be portions of the arc of the circle. The main thing is that the clamping part fits into the support bar so that they can be securely fastened to each other. 5 On both sides of the holder portion are the main portions, the first of which is substantially planar. The second main portion is also substantially planar, but is preferably formed with one or more elbows such that the second main portion has at least two planes substantially parallel to the plane of the fitted fender. One of these levels is for the first side 10 of the fender mounted and the other for the other side of the fender and lower body, against the lower body. Typically, the arch of the retaining member is so deviated from the plane of the front fender and the surface of the second fender that the cross-section of the support bar fits at least almost completely into the space defined by the arc and the plane of said first section. A weakening is provided in the curved bracket portion of the upper body of the system of the invention, from which the bracket portion is arranged to bend tightly around the support bar. In this way, two main contact points are formed between the retaining member and the ... support bar, one for attenuation * 4: v. on each side. The third contact point consists of the support bar and the vehicle * · | ·. ^ 20 minimum wheel support from the direction of the wheel.

«M

:, tt · 'One of the main advantages of the fender mounting system according to the invention is that it is easier and quicker to install the fender on the support bar. When the mudguard to be attached to the support bar 25 by one or more systems of the invention is loosely mounted to the support bar at approximately the correct * position, the first attachment members of each system are tightened.

<t

Since each fastening system according to the invention has only one bolt and nut or similar fastening elements, it is fast to tighten in place.

* »*» * · 1 · - t 6 110249

One advantage of the fender mounting system according to the invention is that the elongated aperture of the mudguard allows a simple way of adjusting the position and position of the mudguard in the direction of this aperture. Fine adjustment of the mudguard position is accomplished simply by moving the fasteners in the elongated opening of the mudguard 5 before tightening the fastening members to their final tightness. No rail structures or the like are required for this position adjustment.

A particularly preferred embodiment of the invention is characterized in that the second fastening means comprises a neck portion narrower than the elongated opening of the mudguard 10 at the end of the second main portion of the upper piece, to which is attached a planar extension portion wider than said elongated opening. In the mounted system, the neck portion rests through the elongated aperture of the mudguard and the other attachment members of the lower body, and the spreading member abuts against the surface away from the mudguard of the lower body. In this way, the mudguard and lower part are pinched between the second main part 15 of the upper part and the spreading part. The advantage of such a system is its simple yet functional structure. The spreading member is easy to shape so that it squeezes towards the bottom while covering the opening of the bottom, thus preventing water ... from passing from the rim side of the mudguard to the outside. Such a top piece

t i · * · * • <·

In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the bottom member is formed with an elongated aperture fitting approximately the thickness of the mudguard; A 25-height protrusion against which the mudguard support bar is * »mounted to support the system. Such a protrusion is substantially inflexible, so that the contact point between the protrusion supporting the support bar from the wheel of the vehicle and the support bar allows for a rigid,

bending the bracket at its weak point in the intended manner and thus tightening the * 30 bracket firmly to the support bar. The protrusion also prevents the plastic 7101049 fender from being squeezed too tightly between the support bar and the bottom. This increases the durability of the mudguard.

In a preferred embodiment of the invention, stiffening is provided on both sides of the curved retainer part 5 of the upper body. This prevents the upper piece from being bent at both sides of the weakening portion of the arch when it is tightened tightly at desired locations.

Yet another preferred fastening system according to the invention comprises a cover plate 10 for preventing the passage of water from the elongated opening of the mudguard from the rim side of the mudguard to its first side. Standards require that mudguards do not have holes that allow water to pass through. The cover plate according to the invention may be mounted on either the first or the second side of the mudguard. For example, the cover plate may be mounted to cover the entire system, i.e., to pass over the top member and the fender support bar 15. Preferably, the cover plate is mounted between the mudguard and the top. Thus, openings are formed in the cover plate for the first and second fastening means. In addition to preventing the passage of water, the cover plate can protect the system from dirt and improve the appearance of the system.

a first stiffener 32 by molding the body 12 so that the center of the first main body 14 is above its edges. Similarly, a second stiffener 34 is formed at the junction of the retainer portion 18 and the second main portion 16 by molding the middle of the second main portion 16 above its edges. Weakening 30 could also be something other than an opening. For example, the retaining member 18 could be formed at some point thinner than its surroundings. The main thing is that the retainer part 18 bends: “*: 30 weaken at 30 more easily than elsewhere.

Figures 5, 6 and 7 show a lower body 36 of the preferred mudguard fastening system 10 according to the invention having a first main part 38 and a second main part 40. An opening 42 is formed for the first 5 fastening members, i.e. bolt 22. In the figures , i.e., an integral part of the lower part 36. Thus, when installing the system 10, the installer has fewer loose parts to deal with. An opening 44 is formed in the second main body 40 for the second fastening members 24. Approximately in the middle of the lower body 36, a projection 46 is formed between the openings 42 and 44 for possible additional attachment needs for the lower body main bodies 38 and 40, e.g. In order to stiffen the substantially planar lower body 36, its longitudinal edges 52 and 54 are bent downward. The aperture 44 and the aperture 28 are shaped such that the aperture 28 can only be accommodated in the aperture 44 with the top piece 12 nearly perpendicular to the bottom piece 36. When the extension 28 is threaded through the opening 44 and the top and bottom pieces are rotated in parallel, the extension 28 is wider than the opening 44, so that, for example, in the position shown in Figure 1, the top and bottom pieces are locked together. Installed 28 covers the aperture 44 when installed, thereby preventing water from passing through the aperture 44.

Figures 1 4 and 5 show the level 58 of the surface 58 of the fender 56 mounted away from the ring '* and the plane 60 of the ring facing the ring. it is seen how the projection 46 is approximately the height of the mudguard 56.

. ···. Preferably, the projection 46 is formed slightly, for example 0.5 mm, above the mudguard thickness. Otherwise, adjust the position of the fender 56 to the platform 46! A support bar 72 facing against would grip the mudguard surface 58 and brake the mounting. Further, it will be seen how the surfaces 62, 64, 66 and 68 of the upper and lower bodies are: Y: shaped to approximately the same curvature as the mudguard 56. The upper part of I * »· | the surfaces 62 and 64 are intended to be positioned against the convex surface 58 of the mudguard, and ·: ·: preferably having a slightly steeper curvature than the surface 58.

The upper surface 68 of the lower body is provided against the concave surface 60 of the mudguard and has a slightly slimmer curvature of 110249 than the surface 60. In this way, the surfaces are more closely bonded to each other when the system 10 is mounted. Figures 1, 4 and 5 show the lower surface 70 of the bottom piece 36 mounted toward the vehicle tire with a dotted line. The surface 66 of the other mounting members 28 is intended to abut the bottom surface 70 of the bottom 5 36 and is shaped to press against it.

Figures 1 and 4 show the dashed line 56 and the dotted line position of the lower surface 70 of the lower body 36 in a position where the other upper fastening members 24 of the upper body 10 are threaded out of the opening 44 and the upper body 36 rests. Then, the substantially planar surface 64 of the second main portion 16 of the upper body is pressed against the convex surface 58 of the mudguard and the surface 66 of the second mounting members 28 is pressed against the lower surface 70 of the lower body. and there is a substantial space between the convex upper surface 58 of the mudguard which, in a preferred embodiment of the invention, is a few millimeters, for example 3 to 6 mm.

• If, in the situation of Figure 1, the first part of the upper body is bent: '20 main parts 14 towards the fender surface 58, the pressed surfaces 64 and 28 will clamp the upper body 12,

• I

Tightening the bolt 22 and the nut 22b shown in Figures 12 and 13 tightens the upper piece 12, the mudguard 56 and the lower piece 36 also at the first fastening members 22. As long as the bolt 22 and nut 22b do not 25, the position of system 10 and fender 56 are easily adjustable relative to one another.

Figures 8, 9 and 10 illustrate a mudguard 56 attached to a system of the invention 10 • a mudguard 56 attached to a substantially circular mudguard support rod 72. The mudguard 56 is: 30 intended to be secured to both rods 72 by the two but Figures 9 and 10 show the attachment with only one system 10 so that the elongated opening 74 formed in the plastic mudguard 56 is more clearly visible. Both bolt 22 and the second fastening means 24 are arranged to pass from aperture 74, due to the elongated shape of aperture 74, the position of the fastening system 10 can be easily adjusted in the plane of the surface of the mudguard 56. Preferably, the first and second mounting members 22 and 24 of one system have only one aperture 74 in the mudguard, but of course there may be more than one.

Figures 11, 12 and 13 show various steps of fitting the mudguard to the support rod 72 of the fastening system 10 according to the invention. In Figure 11, the second attachment means in the second main portion 16 of the upper body is disposed through an elongated aperture 74 of the mudguard and an aperture 44 of the lower body, and the upper body 12 is pivoted parallel to the lower body 36 and fender 56. The upper body 12 is upright, inclined on the upper body surface 64, the second fastening means 24 and the apertures 74 and 44 formed by a hinged assembly. In this position, the support bar 72 can be brought under the arc of the top piece 12 between the top piece 12 and the bolt 22. The base member projection 46 is positioned through the elongated aperture 74 of the mudguard so that its surface is substantially flush with the convex surface 58 of the mudguard. The bottom surface 70 of the lower body is represented by a dashed line · ·: ''.

Fig. 12 illustrates a situation similar to that shown in Fig. 1, in which the upper body 12 is rotated horizontally. The bolt 22 is guided through the opening 20 of the top piece 25 and the nut 22b is loosely threaded into the threads of the bolt 22. A mudguard support bar 72 is disposed beneath the arch of the upper body • · *, .. · *. It is either introduced in the situation illustrated in Figure 11 between the upper body 12 and bolt 22, or system 10 is threaded into the bar 72 relative to the vehicle direction: . The figure shows how the radius of curvature of the outer surface 30 of the support rod72 is slightly smaller than the radius of curvature of the inner surface76 of the holder portion.

12 110249

The holding member 18 and thus the mudguard 56 can thus be moved in the direction of the rod 72 in this situation. Since the other fastening members 24 have not yet been tightly pressed, at the same time the system 10 can be moved relative to the mudguard 56 in the direction of the elongated opening 74 of the mudguard. Thus, in the situation of Figure 12, the position of the mudguard 56 with respect to the support bar 72 can be adjusted.

Figure 13 illustrates the system of Figure 12 when the nut 22b is tightened. The bolt 22 and the nut 22b tightly clamp the mudguard 56 between the first main portion 14 of the upper body and the first main body 38 of the lower body. Tightening the nut 22b of the bolt 22 and 10 at the same time causes the mudguard 56 and the second head portion 40 of the lower member to be pinched between the mudguard surface 64 and the flap 28 pressed against the mudguard of the second head portion 16.

When the first main portion 14 of the top member is pressed toward the fender 56, the inner surface 76 of the retainer portion 15 contacts the surface of the fender support bar 72. The support bar 72 is also in communication with the substantially inflexible platform 46. As the first main portion 14 of the top member is continued to be pressed, the retainer portion 18 tends to bend. The weakening aperture 30 formed in the holder portion first bends · ... · * and the holder portion deflects at said opening 30. In order to prevent the junctions between the retainer portion and: the upper parts of the upper body, stiffeners 32 and 34 are formed at these positions * *: **. The weakening opening 30 and the stiffeners 32 and 34 * · result in formation of the retainer portion and . two main contact points 78 and 80, between opening 30 and stiffeners 32 and 34.

The third contact point 82 of the support bar 72 is located between the support bar 72 and a platform 46 supporting it from the direction of the vehicle wheel 25. The projection 46 is not necessary for the system 10, but the rod 72 may also engage the surface 58 of the mudguard itself.

The mudguard support bar 72 is thus tensioned into the system 10 at the three contact points. Without the deflection of the bracket portion 18 according to the invention, the curved bracket portion would press: ··: the support bar72 only from the top toward the platform 46, thereby reducing the holding force.

13 110249

By designing the system 10 or the support bar 72 according to the invention, it is possible to provide several contact points.

Figures 14 and 15 schematically illustrate a system 10 according to the invention, wherein a cover plate 84 is provided between the mudguard 56 and the upper body 12 to prevent water from passing from the tire side of the mudguard 56 to the first side of the mudguard. An aperture 86 is provided for the bolt 22 in the cover plate 84 and an aperture 88 for the other fastening members 24. The support bar 72 is not connected to the platform 46 in the embodiment illustrated by providing a suitable opening in the cover plate 84 and raising the platform 46.

Figures 16 and 17 show a system 10 in which the cover plate 90 is mounted to cover the entire system 10. With the exception of the cover plate 90, the system 10 in Figures 16 and 17 is similar to that shown in Figure 13. The cover plate edge 92 has a recess 94 formed at the support bar 72 which is slightly smaller in the unmounted cover plate 90 than the support bar 72. The cover plate 90 is made of a somewhat resilient material such as plastic, the recess 94 being flexible so that the support bar 72 may the cover plate 90 · ... · attaches securely to the support rod72. Such a cover plate 90 can be shaped as desired, for example to improve its appearance and * ·: to reduce air resistance. The edge 92 of the baffle plate is arranged as close as possible to the mudguard 56 in order to prevent the passage of water.

The cover plate may also be formed so that it can be mounted 25 between the mudguard 56 and the lower piece 36. In this case, it should again have openings for the first and second fastening means. The covers according to the invention are: Y; preferably made of plastic or metal.
