Description

The utility model relates to devices for protecting a car radiator (including an engine cooling radiator and an air conditioning radiator) from foreign objects, debris, stones, insects, etc.

Devices for protecting the radiator from foreign objects are well known. As a rule, they are a fine-mesh mesh fixed to the frame.

From the RF patent for utility model No. 125143, a protective bumper mesh is known for protecting the radiator, made with the possibility of fastening into the opening of the bumper zone in front of the car radiator and consisting of a frame and a mesh stretched over it, while there is at least one perimeter of the frame on each side one mount, which is a flat L-shaped bracket mounted on the frame. A disadvantage of the known mesh is that, since the frame is made of plastic, sufficient strength and durability of the device as a whole are not provided.

From the RF patent for utility model No. 137524, a grid for protecting a car radiator is known that can be installed in the rear of the bumper, behind a decorative grille of a car, while the grid completely repeats the contour of the decorative grille and is fixed with fasteners on the inner surface of the decorative grill, and there are places for fixing the grid with fasteners are evenly distributed over its entire area.

A disadvantage of the known device is that for the installation of the mesh it is necessary to completely dismantle the bumper, thus, the installation of the protective device requires at least 1 hour more time than when installing the devices according to patent 125143.

The closest analogue is the solution according to patent RU 145851 U, published: 09/27/2014, which describes a device for protecting a car radiator, made with the possibility of installation in the front of the bumper in front of the decorative grille of the car, characterized in that it contains a mesh of perforated - an exhaust sheet and a frame made in such a way that it repeats the shape of the lumen of the bumper, from a bent tube or rod, while the mesh and said frame are made of aluminum or an aluminum alloy, and the mesh is connected Nena with a frame around the perimeter.

The technical problem of the known technical solutions is the complex process of manufacturing protective gratings and their assembly.

Also a technical problem is the large dimensions for the height of the product when assembled, in case of breakdown of individual elements of the grill, it is necessary to replace it with a new one.

The purpose of the utility model is to resolve these problems.

The technical result is a simplified process for the production of protective grilles, a simplified process for their assembly, as well as ease of transportation associated with compactness. In addition, it is possible to replace by any user without special knowledge the individual elements of the protective grill during operation during their wear or loss of an aesthetic appearance.

The specified technical result is achieved due to the fact that the claimed device for protecting the radiator of the car, made with the possibility of installation in front of the radiator of the car, characterized in that it contains a mesh expanded metal and frame, while the mesh is made of metal, and the grid is connected to the frame around the perimeter, characterized in that the frame is made in the form of a profile of flexible material and is removable with respect to the grid, and in cross section the profile of the frame has a recess, The otorrhoea has a narrowing to the edge.

Preferably, the recess has a trapezoidal cross section.

Preferably, the frame is made of rubber or soft plastic, or silicone, or rubber.

Preferably, the mesh is made of aluminum or an aluminum alloy.

Utility Model Implementation

A device for protecting a car radiator is configured to be installed in front of the car radiator. It contains a grid 1 (see Fig. 1-Fig. 3) of expanded metal and a frame 2. The grid 1 is made of metal, for example aluminum or aluminum alloy, and connected to the frame 2 around the entire perimeter.

The novelty is that the frame 2 is made in the form of a profile of flexible material and removable with respect to the mesh 1, and in cross section the profile of the frame has a recess 3, which has a narrowing to the edge. The recess may have, for example, a trapezoidal section. Also, the recess may have a rounded shape. The frame can be made of rubber or soft plastic.

The process of fixing the frame 2 to the mesh 1 is shown in FIG. 2 (b). The frame, as a flexible material, is wrapped around the mesh 1 and pressed down by pushing the end face of the mesh 1 on the recess 3 of the frame. After pressing, the recess 3 in the places of narrowing is stretched and after inserting the end face of the mesh 1 compresses the mesh along the entire perimeter along the frame, forming a tight fit. After installing the device for protecting the radiator and fixing it on the bumper 8 of the car (see Fig. 5), it corresponds to the size of the bumper opening, and the frame 2 cannot fly off the net 1 during operation.

Due to the fact that the frame 2 is removable and separated from the mesh 1, the process of manufacturing and assembling the protective grilles is simplified by the fact that the frame 2 is made separately in a continuous stream, can be arranged in a skein and cut to the desired length at the desired moment of assembly. Mesh 1 is also manufactured separately by stamping or trimming finished mesh sheets. The transportation of the mesh 1 and the frame 2 is carried out in separate batches, which allows them to be stacked in piles compactly and creates convenience during transportation.

Since the frame 2 is removable and is put on the mesh 1 by simple pressing, it is possible to replace by any user without special knowledge any of the elements of the protective grill (frame or mesh) during operation during their wear or loss of aesthetic appearance.

To fix the radiator protection device to the car, various attachment devices can be used. For example, in FIG. Figure 4 shows how, using the L-shaped fasteners 4, which are inserted into the recess 3 together with the mesh 1, with the help of a screwdriver 6 and screws 5, the ends of the L-shaped fasteners 4 are fixed to the internal standard protective grille of the car radiator.

If there are no holes in the internal standard grill, the radiator protection device is fixed to the grid 1 by the clamps 7, pulling them through the holes of the grid 1 and cutting off the ends of the clamps after tensioning (see Fig. 5).

Examples of the execution of the profile of the frame 2 with the recess 3 can be of different designs, each of them (see Fig. 6 (a-d)) has a narrowing to the edge. The effect on the technical result is exerted not by the cross-sectional shape of the carcass 2 profile, but by the presence of a recess 3 having a narrowing at the edges.
