[0084] figure 1 with 2 is a perspective view of the blocking device 1 according to the first embodiment. figure 2 The axis X shown in is the longitudinal axis of the motor vehicle and the axis Z is the vertical axis along the height of the motor vehicle.

[0085] The blocking device 1 comprises at least one blocking means 3 designed to be arranged in an air intake of a motor vehicle, and a support 5 for said blocking means 3 .

[0086] Advantageously, the blocking means comprise the panel 3 of the gate 7 .

[0087] Especially when the vehicle 1 has a plurality of air intakes, the blocking device 1 , 101 , 201 can have a plurality of panels designed as shutters arranged in the respective air intakes. The panels 3 of the gate 7 can be independent of each other.

[0088] The or each panel 3 of gates 7 comprises a plurality of gates 7 . The panel 3 has, for example, a frame 9 on which at least one set of gates 7 is mounted. In the example shown, the frame 9 is generally sub...

Abstract

The invention relates to a device (1) for sealing an air intake of a motor vehicle, comprising: - at least one sealing means (3) intended to be arranged in the air intake of a motor vehicle, and - for the sealing means ( 3) in order to hold the sealing means (3) and is intended to be attached to the load bearing structure of the motor vehicle. According to the invention, the support (5) comprises damping guide means (15) for the sealing means (3) in order to allow the sealing means (3) to move from the initial holding position in the event of an impact on the sealing means (3) to a retracted position relative to the initial position. The invention also relates to a front-end module for a motor vehicle comprising such a sealing means.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the retention of an air intake blocking device, which is generally arranged on a load bearing structure of a vehicle upstream of a motor vehicle installation, in particular on a front end module load bearing structure of a vehicle, such as a heat exchanger device. [0002] The invention also relates to a corresponding front-end module and a corresponding vehicle. Background technique [0003] The front end of a motor vehicle usually includes one air intake or two air intakes, referred to as upper and lower air intakes, which are separated by a flap. The heat exchange device of the motor vehicle is usually located behind this fender and comprises one or more heat exchangers, such as those used for air conditioning the passenger compartment, which are designed to be The incoming air flows through one or more air intakes. [0004] A blocking device, comprising in a known manner at least one panel of a shutter, is usuall...
