Embodiment Construction

[0045] In the following description, the longitudinal direction refers to the length of the vehicle, ie the X axis. Front corresponds to the main direction of vehicle displacement. The transverse or Y axis is perpendicular to the longitudinal direction.

[0046] figure 1 A vehicle 2 is shown, in particular a motor vehicle. The vehicle 2 comprises four wheels 3 forming a ground connection. These wheels are adapted to support the weight of the vehicle and possible loads of the vehicle. Each wheel 3 is placed in a wheel channel equipped with a fender 6 . The rear wheel tunnel is surrounded by a body wing 8 which covers the associated fender 6 . The wing 8 may be a body element of the vehicle, that is to say it remains visible from the outside of the vehicle 2 .

[0047] Note that the or each wing 8 has a wheel well trim 10 . The trim 10 may be fixed to the body of the vehicle, in particular to wing liners (not visible). The trim piece may have an arcuate shape to follow t...

Abstract

The subject of the invention is a motor vehicle comprising front wheels and rear wheels disposed in wheel arches provided with mudguards (6). The rear mudguards are equipped with aerodynamic flaps (12). They each comprise a half-tubular partition (18) which delimits an internal space intended to receive a wheel of the vehicle. The partition comprises a fastening tab (26) fastened to the body of the vehicle. The flap (12) forms a wall downwardly extending the partition of the the mudguard (6). Said flap comprises a sleeve (34) which is fitted around the fastening tab and which is locked in position between the partition (18) and a transverse arm of the body of the vehicle. Said sleeve is fastened with the aid of the same screw that clamps the fastening tab (26) to the transverse arm.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a fender for a motor vehicle. The invention also relates to the fastening of the wing on a fender of a motor vehicle. The invention also relates to a motor vehicle equipped with a fender having an aerodynamic wing. Background technique [0002] The wheel wells of motor vehicles are usually equipped with fenders or fenders. These include casings that partially enclose the wheels to block sudden splashes as the vehicle shifts. It is known that fenders are fixed to the structure of the vehicle by means of screws. In addition, the fender may be equipped with a lower flap to partially extend the shape of the shell. Typically, such wings are secured to both the vehicle's structure and the fenders. [0003] Patent document FR 2,878,810 B1 discloses a fixing device for a motor vehicle flap which allows the owner of the motor vehicle to mount said flap on a fender already mounted on the vehicle. The wings are secured to the fender...
