Embodiment Construction

[0025] Figure 1 to Figure 3 A cover element for a chassis element of a motor vehicle, denoted as a whole by the reference numeral 10 , is shown schematically. This is a cover element 10 for a chassis control arm 19 .

[0026] The cover element 10 comprises a substantially horizontally formed cover surface 12 , an opening 14 and at least one first fastening section 16 formed upwardly from the cover surface 12 in the vehicle vertical direction FH. A second fastening section 17 is also provided here, which is also accessible by means of the opening 14 . The first fastening section 16 and the second fastening section 17 are spaced apart transversely to the control arm longitudinal direction LL and extend in the control arm longitudinal direction LL.

[0027] Such as figure 1 and figure 2 As shown, the covering device is designed in the direction of travel FR with a protruding wall 18 which prevents access to the second fastening section 17 . The two fastening sections 16 , ...

Abstract

The invention relates to a covering element (10) for a chassis element of a motor vehicle, comprising a covering surface (12) which covers at least part of the chassis element, and a first fastening section (16) which extends from the surface of the covering element (10) as far as the chassis element and has receptacles (22) for fastening means. The invention is distinguished in that the coveringelement (10) has an opening (14) which permits access to a first fastening section (16).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a cover for a chassis element of a motor vehicle according to the type specified in the preamble of claim 1 . Background technique [0002] Once the motor vehicle starts to move, there will be a lot of air vortices. Especially the area of ​​the wheel suspension and the underside of the motor vehicle are aerodynamically problematic areas. The underside of modern motor vehicles and the chassis control arms which form part of the wheel suspension are partly equipped with specially designed coverings in order to achieve a better flow around the underbody and the wheels. Improved aerodynamics in particular reduce the car's consumption and noise level. In addition, the cover ensures protection against stone impact and damage when driving over obstacles. [0003] Thus, for example, document US Pat. No. 7,654,544 proposes a cover for chassis control arms with a hollow profile that is open downwards. The π-shaped cross-section of th...
