Problems solved by technology

However, if the desired strength is achieved in this way, the mounting height of the bracket in the area of ​​the fastening part will increase significantly
This is not good for the limited space conditions in the engine compartment

Embodiment Construction

[0014] The figures show a bracket 10 with a flat fastening portion 12 and two connection portions 14 arranged on one side and the other side of the fastening portion 12 . The fastening portion 12 serves to securely attach the bracket to a prime mover, for example to a gearbox in the nacelle, and is provided with two openings 16 for fastening screws. The connecting portion 14 serves to attach the bracket to an exhaust system component to be supported, for example to a primary catalytic converter, and is respectively provided with a contact surface 18 whose curvature is adapted to the outer surface of the component contour. The connecting portion 18 is preferably welded to the housing of the component.

[0015] Bracket 10 is made of sheet metal which has been stamped into a suitable shape and then bent. In order to reinforce the connection 14 , a reinforcing rib 20 is provided in each case.

[0016] A reinforcing element 22 is arranged on the fastening part 12 , which likewis...

Abstract

The invention concerns a holder (10) for a component of an exhaust gas system, with a fastening section (12), for fastening to the engine, and at least one connecting section (14), for connecting to the component, characterised by a reinforcing element (22) on the fastening section (12).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a bracket for a component of an exhaust system, comprising: a fastening portion for fastening on the side of the engine; and at least one connecting portion for connection with the component. Background technique [0002] Such brackets are used in particular for supporting primary catalytic converters in motor vehicles on, for example, gearboxes. Since there is only very little space available in the engine compartment, the bracket must be made compact without suffering a loss of strength. These conflicting requirements have not been satisfactorily fulfilled by known brackets. Basically, one can consider designing the material thickness of the entire bracket such that sufficient strength is obtained in all areas. However, this can lead to much higher material thicknesses than are actually required in those areas which are only required to be subjected to lesser loads, especially in connections. Therefore, the bracket will ha...
