AI Technical Summary
The assembly process for central computer housings in vehicles is time-consuming and demanding due to the need for mounting brackets and wiring harnesses, which increases manufacturing costs and time.
A pre-assembled device combining a receiving area for the central computer and a support area, designed to absorb loads and transfer them into the vehicle body, is provided, allowing for a compact design and reduced material usage, with integrated cable ducts for the wiring harness, enabling efficient assembly by delivering the unit as a pre-assembled component.
This solution reduces assembly time and costs by integrating the central computer housing and support structure as a pre-assembled unit, minimizing space requirements and allowing for efficient installation of additional components, while providing vibration damping and crash resistance.
