Multifunctional adaptor |
摘要 |
A multifunctional adaptor (10) for connecting at least one vehicle component to a vehicle support member (120) includes a body (30) having a base (50) and a shaft (70) that extends from the base (50). The base (50) terminates at a first axial end surface (52) and the shaft (70) terminates at a second axial end surface (80). A first passage (42) extends from the first axial end surface (52) towards the second axial end surface (80) for receiving a first fastener (100) to secure the adaptor (10) to the support member (120). A second passage (44) extends from the second axial end surface (80) towards the first axial end surface (52) for receiving a second fastener (104) to secure a first vehicle component to the adaptor. A third passage (90) extends transverse to the first passage (42) and the second passage (44) and entirely through the body (30) for receiving a third fastener (106) to secure a second component to the adaptor (10). |

1. A multifunctional adaptor configured to connect at least one vehicle component to a support member of a vehicle comprising:
a body extending along an axis from a first end to a second end, the body including a base and a shaft extending from the base, the base terminating at a first axial end surface and the shaft terminating at a second axial end surface; a first passage extending along a first portion of the axis from the first axial end surface towards the second axial end surface and configured to receive a first fastener from a first direction to secure the adaptor to the support member; a second passage extending along a second portion of the axis through the second axial end surface towards the first axial end surface and configured to receive a second fastener from a second direction opposite the first direction to secure a first vehicle component to the adaptor; a third passage extending transverse to and between the first passage and the second passage through the shaft and configured to receive a third fastener to secure a second vehicle component to the adaptor; and wherein the shaft includes at least one rib extending radially outward from the shaft for receiving a fourth fastener to secure a third vehicle component to the adaptor. |
