Description

Technical field

The invention relates to a wiper mounting system located in front of a car body according to the preamble of claim 1 of the invention.

State of the art

In production vehicles, wipers are installed, as a rule, in the immediate vicinity of the windshield. The wiper is usually fixed either to the supporting structure or to the nodes resting on it.

From the description of the invention to patent DE 10 2006 040 735 A1, a serial fastening system is known, when using which the wiper is fixed by means of at least three fasteners that are installed in the fastening nodes located at the corners of the triangle. In this case, one of the mounting nodes is provided on the supporting structure of the car.

The patent specification DE 10 2006 055 730 A1 describes the front part of a car body in which an arched structure increases the rigidity of the front part of a car body.

Utility Model Disclosure

Based on the description of the invention to patent DE 10 2006 040 735 A1, the objective of this utility model is to create a wiper mount system, which is characterized by ease of manufacture and which can be used for cars with both right-hand and left-hand steering.

The problem is solved due to the distinguishing features of claim 1 of the formula.

Preferred forms of execution of the proposed utility model are given in the dependent claims of the utility model.

The fastening system according to the utility model is based on a fundamental technical solution, according to which the wiper, along with mounting on a supporting structure, for example, on the frame of a wind deflector, is additionally fixed on the arch struts provided in the front of the body. For an alternative wiper installation on vehicles with right-hand or left-hand steering, a fastening assembly is preferably used on a supporting structure which is preferably located in the longitudinal median plane of the car. Mounting units on the arch strut system are provided on either the left or right arched strut. Due to this, special devices in the car body are not required for installing the wiper on vehicles with right-hand or left-hand steering. An advantage of such a fastening system is also that the arched struts deforming during a frontal impact raise the wiper mounted on them above the windshield. Due to this, in a head-on collision, damage to the windshield is excluded.

In a compact design, the wiper is positioned in such a way that it covers an area of almost trapezoidal shape that is stretched under the windshield using arched struts and a wind deflector frame, which is part of the supporting structure.

Brief List of Drawings

Other preferred embodiments of the utility model are explained in more detail below by means of the drawings, in which:

Figure 1 is a General front view at an angle of a fragment of the front of the car body with two suspension strut mounts,

Figure 2 is a partial top view of a system of arched struts with a wiper according to figure 1;

Figure 3 is a side view according to figure 2.

Utility Model Implementation

Figure 1 shows a General view from above at an angle of a fragment of the front of the car body 1 with right and left side members 2, 3, which are interconnected using the front panel 4. The right and left A-pillars 5, 6 are adjacent on both sides to the front panel 4 and through it are rigidly connected to each other.

In addition, the front of the car body 1 comprises a right suspension strut mount 7 and a left suspension strut mount 8, which is mirror-symmetrical in design to the right suspension strut mount 7.

The fastenings 7 and 8 of the suspension struts contain an arch 9, 10 of the suspension strut, respectively, designed to install the upper part of the suspension strut (not shown in the figure). To the arch 9, 10 of the suspension strut, which in this embodiment is practically plate-shaped, the lower arch bracket 11, 12 adjoins in the form of a single unit, by which the fastening 7 or 8 of the suspension strut rests on the side member 2 or 3.

The upper arch bracket 13, 14 also in the form of a single unit adjoins the arch of the suspension strut 7, 8, which is supported by the A-pillar 5, 6, not shown in detail in the drawing, and connected to it.

The arch 9, 10 of the suspension strut has a through hole 15, 16 in its cover, which is designed to install the upper end of the suspension strut (not shown in the drawing), which has the shape of a pin, which is threadedly connected to the suspension strut mount. The pipe-shaped arch strut 17 is threadedly attached to the front panel 4 and the arch of the suspension strut 9 of the right mounting of the suspension strut 7 and is flattened at its ends. Similarly, the other arch strut 18 is attached to the front panel 4 and the arch of the suspension strut 10 of the left mounting of the suspension strut 8 by means of a threaded joint 8. Both arched struts 17, 18 are interconnected by a cross member 19, which is welded to both arched struts 17, 18. Both arched the struts 17, 18 and the cross member 19 together form a system of arched struts 20, which is a compact and rigid structural unit. Due to the frame structure of the system of arch struts 20, a decrease in the transmitted bending moment is provided. The system of arched brackets and arched struts provides optimal load both in frontal and displaced collisions.

Between both arched struts 17, 18 a wiper 21 is placed.

As follows, in particular, from FIGS. 2 and 3, the wiper 21 is fastened to the frame of the wind deflector 24 connecting the front panel 4 to the windshield 23 through the rear mounting unit 22. This rear mounting unit 22 is located in the middle longitudinal plane L. In addition , the wiper 21 also has a side mount to the corresponding arch strut 17 or 18 by means of the mounting unit 25 or 26. By means of the fourth mounting unit 27, the wiper 21 is fixed to the cross member 19.

For mounting the wiper 21, both the arched struts 17, 18 and the cross member 19 are equipped with flanges 28, 29, 30. These flanges are welded to the arched struts made of coarse material. To be able to use the system of arched struts 20 in relation to cars with both left-side and right-hand steering, the flanges 28, 29 are located mirror-symmetrical relative to each other, while an additional flange 31 is provided for the front mounting unit 27. When assembling a car with with the right-hand drive, just install the appropriate wiper.

In the event of a head-on collision, if the mount 7, 8 of the strut strut is displaced into the car interior, the arch strut system 20 at the threaded joints is disconnected from the struts of the strut struts 9, 10. This eliminates the risk of the arch strut system 20 getting into the passenger compartment and, therefore, danger injuring passengers. At the next moment of a head-on collision, due to the drive system displaced relative to the car body, the arched struts are deformed, dragging the wiper 21 fixed to them. As follows from the diagram shown in figure 3 by dashed lines, the wiper 21 is displaced above the wind deflector frame and, therefore, over the windshield.
