DISPOSITIF DE MONTAGE DIRECT D'UN EQUIPEMENT, NOTAMMENT D'UN ECHANGEUR DE CHALEUR, SUR UN ELEMENT DE STRUCTURE DE VEHICULE AUTOMOBILE

摘要

The invention concerns a device wherein the equipment (10) and the support (26) formed by the motor vehicle structural element are assembled in at least one point by two matching co-operating elements. The equipment co-operating element (18) is elastically deformable for being spaced from or brought close to the support, to enable direct interlocking at said point for mounting with means for cushioning the equipment on the support. The equipment (10) is in particular a heat exchanger comprising an array of tubes assembled at each of their opposite ends by a collector plate closed by a fluid box, the equipment co-operating element being then a structural part (22) of the fluid box.
