Embodiment Construction

[0028] Such as figure 1 As shown, an internal combustion engine (1) is installed in the engine compartment (2) of a motor vehicle. By way of example, the engine (1) comprises a control unit (3) mounted with a protective housing. A cable, several juxtaposed cables, a wound strand of cables or a surface-wrapped bundle of cables (4) pass through the nacelle (2).

[0029] In this way, the cable (4) runs close to the control unit (3) and enters this unit (3) via its bottom surface (6). This cable (4) supplies power and / or transmits data to other components of the engine (1).

[0030] A fastening device (7) is provided for fastening the cable (4) to the control unit (3) in order to keep the cable (4) in the engine compartment (2) adjacent to said control unit ( 3) and guide the cable (4) very precisely to the other parts of the engine (1).

[0031] The fastening means (7) are attached to the side (8) of the control unit (3), which thus acts as a support. The fastening device (7...

Abstract

A device (7) for securing one or more electric cables (4) to a support (3) present in a motor vehicle comprises a clamp (11), provided with a collar (12) designed to surround and hold the cable (4), and a tab (9) which is attached to the support (3) and to which the clamp (11) is fastened. The tab (9) comprises means for fastening the clamp (11) in the form of a fixed point for mounting the collar (12), and means for retaining said clamp (11) on said tab (9) in the form of two tongues (28) between which said collar (12) of said clamp (11) is positioned.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a device intended to fix cables to supports. The invention also relates more particularly to a device for securing one or more cables to a support present in a motor vehicle. [0002] In motor vehicles, the internal combustion engine is attached to the chassis and to the body of the vehicle by means of mounting pads, or mufflers / rubber-metal joints, in order to accommodate the vibration-type mechanical stresses associated with its operation. In this way, the engine is able to move within its nacelle. These mounting pads allow the engine to wobble when the engine is running. [0003] A set of cables is used to power, distribute power, and transmit data to and from the engine's components. These cables may have a portion, such as a first end, that is mechanically connected to the moving engine, and another portion, such as a second end, that is mechanically connected to the stationary vehicle body. It is therefore necessary to ...
