Description

자동차의 연료탱크 고정용 스트랩 조립체{Strap assembly for fixing a fuel tank in a motor vehicle}Strap assembly for fixing a fuel tank in a motor vehicle

본 발명은 자동차의 연료탱크에 관한 것이며, 보다 구체적으로는 연료탱크를 차체의 저면에 고정하는 스트랩 조립체에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to a fuel tank of an automobile, and more particularly to a strap assembly for fixing the fuel tank to the bottom of the vehicle body.

널리 알려진 바와 같이, 자동차는 연료와 공기가 혼합된 혼합기를 엔진의 실린더 내에서 연소시키고, 연소된 연소가스의 열에너지를 기계적 에너지로 변환하는 것에 의해 바퀴를 구동하는 구동력을 얻는다.As is widely known, automobiles gain driving force for driving wheels by combusting a mixture of fuel and air in a cylinder of an engine and converting thermal energy of the combusted combustion gas into mechanical energy.

이와 같이 구동력을 얻는데 필요한 연료를 저장하는 연료탱크는 주로 차체의저면에 위치되며, 한 쌍의 스트랩에 의해 차체의 저면에 고정된다.The fuel tank that stores the fuel necessary to obtain the driving force is mainly located on the bottom of the vehicle body and fixed to the bottom of the vehicle body by a pair of straps.

도 1은 차체의 저면에 고정된 연료탱크의 일 예를 도시한다.1 illustrates an example of a fuel tank fixed to a bottom of a vehicle body.

도시된 바와 같이, 연료탱크(2)를 고정하기 위한 스트랩(3)은 그 일측단에 'T'형상의 걸림 돌기(3a)가 형성되고 타측에는 체결공이 형성되어 있다.As shown, the strap 3 for fixing the fuel tank 2 is formed with a locking projection (3a) of the 'T' shape on one end and a fastening hole is formed on the other side.

연료탱크(2)가 차체(1)의 저면에 위치된 다음, 한 쌍의 스트랩(3)의 고정돌기들(3a)이 연료탱크(2)에 인접된 차체(1)의 저면에 형성된 고정 훅크(1a)에 삽입되어 걸리고, 스트랩들(3)이 연료탱크(2)의 저면을 가로질러 연료탱크(2) 반대측의 차체(1)에 볼트(3)로 각각 체결되는 것에 의해 연료탱크(2)는 차체(1)에 고정된다.The fuel tank 2 is located on the bottom of the vehicle body 1, and then the fixing hooks 3a of the pair of straps 3 are fixed on the bottom of the vehicle body 1 adjacent to the fuel tank 2. The fuel tank 2 by being fastened to the vehicle body 1 by being fastened to the vehicle body 1 on the side opposite to the fuel tank 2 across the bottom of the fuel tank 2 by the straps ) Is fixed to the vehicle body 1.

한편, 최근 경량화 등의 이유로 연료탱크의 재질이 강판에서 합성수지로 대체되고 있는 실정이다. 그런데, 이와 같이 연료탱크의 재질로서 합성수지 재질을 사용할 경우 다음과 같은 문제점이 발생된다.On the other hand, in recent years, the fuel tank material has been replaced by synthetic resin in the steel sheet for reasons of weight reduction. However, when the synthetic resin material is used as the material of the fuel tank as described above, the following problems occur.

즉, 합성수지 재질의 연료탱크는 연료의 자중과 연료증발가스의 압력에 의해 팽창되는 현상이 발생되며, 특히 스트랩들 사이의 연료탱크 저면이 크게 처지는 경향이 있다. 이에 따라 연료탱크에 저장된 연료의 양이 적을 경우 연료가 제대로 흡입되지 않는 문제점이 발생된다.That is, the synthetic resin fuel tank is caused to expand due to the weight of the fuel and the pressure of the fuel evaporation gas, especially the fuel tank bottom between the straps tend to be greatly sag. Accordingly, when the amount of fuel stored in the fuel tank is small, there is a problem that the fuel is not sucked properly.

본 발명은, 상기와 같은 점을 감안하여 안출된 것으로, 플라스틱 재질로 된 연료탱크의 처짐을 방지할 수 있는 스트랩 조립체를 제공하는데 그 목적이 있다.The present invention has been made in view of the above, and an object thereof is to provide a strap assembly capable of preventing sagging of a fuel tank made of a plastic material.

도 1은 종래의 자동차의 연료탱크를 도시한 저면 사시도.1 is a bottom perspective view showing a fuel tank of a conventional vehicle.

도 2는 본 발명의 일 실시예에 따른 스트랩 조립체에 의해 고정된 자동차의 연료탱크를 도시한 저면 사시도.Figure 2 is a bottom perspective view showing a fuel tank of a vehicle fixed by the strap assembly according to an embodiment of the present invention.

상기와 같은 목적을 달성하기 위하여, 본 발명에 따른 연료탱크 고정용 스트랩 조립체는 차체의 저면에 위치된 연료탱크의 저면을 가로질러 그 양단이 차체의 연료탱크 양측에 고정되고 서로 평행하게 이격되는 한 쌍의 스트랩 부재와, 스트랩 부재들 사이의 연료탱크 저면을 지지하도록 스트랩 부재들 사이를 연결하는 하나 이상의 연결 부재를 포함한다.In order to achieve the above object, the fuel tank fixing strap assembly according to the present invention across the bottom of the fuel tank located on the bottom of the vehicle body as long as both ends are fixed to both sides of the fuel tank of the vehicle body and are spaced in parallel to each other. And a pair of strap members and one or more connecting members connecting between the strap members to support the fuel tank bottom between the strap members.

바람직하게는, 스트랩 부재는 그 일측단에 차체에 형성된 훅크에 걸리는 걸림돌기가 형성되며, 타측단은 체결에 의해 차체에 고정된다.Preferably, the strap member is formed with a locking projection on the hook end formed on the vehicle body, the other end is fixed to the vehicle body by fastening.

이하, 첨부된 도면을 참조하여 본 발명의 바람직한 실시예를 상세하게 설명한다.Hereinafter, with reference to the accompanying drawings will be described in detail a preferred embodiment of the present invention.

도 2는 본 발명의 일 실시예에 따른 자동차의 연료탱크 고정용 스트랩 조립체를 도시한다.2 illustrates a fuel tank fixing strap assembly of a vehicle according to an embodiment of the present invention.

도시된 바와 같이, 본 발명의 일 실시예에 따른 자동차의 연료탱크 고정용 스트랩 조립체는 한 쌍의 스트랩 부재(12)와, 이 스트랩 부재들(12) 간을 연결하는 연결 부재(14)를 포함한다.As shown, the fuel tank fixing strap assembly of an automobile according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a pair of strap members 12 and a connection member 14 connecting the strap members 12. do.

한 쌍의 스트랩 부재(12)는 차체(1)의 저면에 위치되는 연료탱크(2)의 저면을 소정 간격으로 이격되어 가로지르고 있다. 스트랩 부재(12)는 그 일단에 T형상의 걸림돌기(12a)가 형성되어 있고, 타단에는 체결공이 형성되어 있다. T형상의 걸림돌기(12a)가 차체(1)에 형성된 훅크(1a)에 걸리고 그 타단이 볼트(4)와 같은 체결구에 의해 차체(1)에 체결됨으로써, 스트랩 부재(12)는 연료탱크(2)를 차체(1)에 고정한다.The pair of strap members 12 traverse the bottom surface of the fuel tank 2 located on the bottom surface of the vehicle body 1 at predetermined intervals. The strap member 12 has a T-shaped locking protrusion 12a formed at one end thereof, and a fastening hole formed at the other end thereof. The T-shaped locking projection 12a is caught by the hook 1a formed on the vehicle body 1 and the other end thereof is fastened to the vehicle body 1 by a fastener such as a bolt 4, so that the strap member 12 is connected to the fuel tank. (2) is fixed to the vehicle body (1).

연결부재(14)는 한 쌍의 스트랩 부재들(12) 간을 연결하도록 그 양단이 스트랩 부재들(12)의 중간 일측에 각각 고정되어 있다. 도 2에서는 하나의 연결부재(14)가 도시되어 있으나, 필요에 따라 둘 이상의 연결 부재가 스트랩 부재(12)의 길이 방향을 따라 소정 간격으로 설치될 수도 있다.The connecting members 14 are fixed at both ends of the strap members 12 at both ends thereof so as to connect the pair of strap members 12. Although one connecting member 14 is illustrated in FIG. 2, two or more connecting members may be provided at predetermined intervals along the length direction of the strap member 12 as needed.

이와 같이 스트랩 부재들(12) 간을 연결하는 연결 부재(14)는 스트랩 부재들(12) 사이에 위치되는 연료탱크(2)의 저면을 지지한다. 이에 따라 스트랩 부재들(12)의 강성이 향상됨과 동시에, 연료탱크(2)의 저면이 아래로 처지는 것이 방지된다.In this way, the connecting member 14 connecting the strap members 12 supports the bottom surface of the fuel tank 2 positioned between the strap members 12. This improves the rigidity of the strap members 12 and prevents the bottom of the fuel tank 2 from sagging downward.

상기된 바와 같은 본 발명에 따른 스트랩 조립체는, 한 쌍의 스트랩 부재들 간을 연결하는 연결부재가 스트랩 부재들 사이의 연료탱크 저면을 지지한다. 따라서, 합성수지 재질의 연료탱크가 사용되는 경우에도 연료탱크의 저면이 아래로 처지지 않아 연료의 흡입 성능이 향상되는 장점이 있다.In the strap assembly according to the present invention as described above, a connection member for connecting between a pair of strap members supports the fuel tank bottom between the strap members. Therefore, even when a synthetic fuel tank is used, the bottom of the fuel tank does not sag down, and thus there is an advantage in that the fuel suction performance is improved.

이상에서는, 본 발명을 특정의 바람직한 실시예에 대해서 도시하고 설명하였다. 그러나, 본 발명은 상술한 실시예에만 한정되는 것은 아니며, 본 발명이 속하는 기술 분야에서 통상의 지식을 가진 자라면 이하의 특허청구범위에 기재된 본 발명의 기술적 사상의 요지를 벗어남이 없이 얼마든지 다양하게 변경실시할 수 있을 것이다.In the above, the present invention has been illustrated and described with respect to certain preferred embodiments. However, the present invention is not limited only to the above-described embodiments, and those skilled in the art to which the present invention pertains may vary without departing from the spirit of the technical idea of the present invention described in the claims below. It may be changed.
