Definitions

• the invention is based on a device for fastening loudspeakers or similar small electrical consumers in motor vehicles with the features specified in the preamble of claim 1.
• loudspeakers are predominantly fastened to the side wall cladding or on the so-called rear shelf.
• Loudspeakers that are attached to the side wall protrude into the cavity created between the side wall of the passenger compartment and the body panel.
• loudspeakers are required which are very flat.
• a flat speaker is usually with a low one Performance affected.
• a further disadvantage of this type of fastening can be seen in the fact that the loudspeaker mostly radiates into the footwell, as a result of which the sound quality deteriorates.
• Another disadvantage is that the cavity acts as a resonance body and it can lead to disturbing vibrations which reduce the sound.
• the attachment of loudspeakers to the lift tray is a disadvantage, particularly in vehicles with a foldable rear seat. If you want to use the foldable back seat, the electrical connection of the speakers must be disconnected. Another disadvantage is that the speakers can be damaged if the rear seat is folded down.
• the present invention has for its object to provide a device for fastening speakers or similar small electrical consumers in vehicles, which can be attached universally to a body part of the vehicle.
• the device according to the invention is characterized by a receptacle, which can be pivoted through an angle, preferably around three two-axis axes.
