Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to a radiator simple attachment/detachment mechanism.

Cars, especially buses, generally have a radiator mounted in the corner of the back of the bus. Previously, this radiator was lowered directly below the floor of the bus when inspecting for failures. However, the weight of this radiator reaches approximately 50 kg, so installing and removing it is hard work that requires jacking, etc., and it also has the disadvantage that it is difficult to work because it is lowered directly below. Furthermore, there is a drawback that the fixing member cannot be attached to the space below the radiator mounting portion of the automobile. The present invention was developed in view of the above-mentioned drawbacks, and its purpose is to make it possible to move the radiator laterally with little effort, and to enable easy installation, removal, and inspection. , an inspection port provided in the vehicle body facing the side of the radiator, an inspection port lid that covers the inspection port, a fixing device attachment/detachment port on the back of the bus provided in a position facing the back of the radiator, and the above-mentioned fixing device. A fixing device provided at the attachment/detachment opening, a fixing device for fixing the radiator frame and the bus body side fixing part, a rail facing the lower surface of the radiator frame, and a lid that is attached to the radiator frame and rotates on the rail. The fixing device is provided with a plurality of movable rollers, and the fixing device can be attached and detached from the fixing device attachment/detachment opening, and the radiator can be taken out from the inspection opening along the rail.

Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

In FIGS. 1 and 2, a radiator 2 is mounted on a corner of a back surface 1 of a bus, and an inspection port 4 is formed in a position of a bus body 3 facing the side surface of the radiator 2. The inspection port 4 is covered by an inspection port lid 5, and the inspection port lid 5 is supported at its upper end by a hinge 6 so as to be rotatable in the direction of arrow A. The radiator 2 is composed of a radiator main body 7 and a radiator frame 8, and a plurality of (in this case, three
) rollers 9 are attached. These rollers 9 roll on rails 10 fixed to the bus body 3. This rail 10 is formed into a U-shaped cross section, and has a built-in sliding rail 11 so as to fit into this U-shaped portion, and the rail 11 extends outward from the end of the rail 10. It is now expandable (Figure 3).

In addition, as shown in FIG. 4, the radiator frame 8
When the bus is installed, the main rail 1 is fixed by the fixture 12.
Fixed to 0. These fixtures 12 are provided at the rear of the radiator frame 8, that is, at the back side of the bus. Therefore, each of the fixing devices 12 can be easily attached and detached from a fixing device attachment/detachment lid (not shown) of a fixing device attachment/detachment opening provided at a position opposite to the rear surface of the radiator 2 on the bus rear surface 1.
Of course, these fixings are attached to the radiator frame 8
may be fixed to the bus body other than the rail.

Next, the effect will be explained.

When inspecting the radiator 2, the inspection door lid 5 is opened, the sliding auxiliary rail 11 is pulled out, the above-mentioned fixture attachment/removal lid is opened, and all the fixtures 12 are removed. After removing this fixture 12, when the radiator frame 8 is pulled in the direction of arrow B in FIG. It reaches the outside of the mouth 4. Inspections and repairs are performed in this state. Of course, from this state, it is also easy to move the radiator to another location using a transport vehicle or the like if necessary. When installing the radiator 2 on the bus, the above-mentioned procedure may be reversed.

In order to ensure that the radiator 2 moves in the direction of arrow B, a guide member may be provided on the bus body to guide the radiator frame in the direction of movement.

The main rail and auxiliary rail of the present invention are not limited to the shapes shown in the drawings, but may be of any shape as long as they allow rolling of the rollers. Also,
The auxiliary rail is not limited to the sliding type of the example,
It may also be connectable to the end of the rail 10.

As is clear from the above description, according to the present invention, there is an inspection port provided in the bus body facing the side surface of the radiator, an inspection port lid that covers the inspection port, an opposing lower rail on the bottom surface of the radiator frame, and the radiator frame. It is equipped with a plurality of rollers that are attached to the bottom surface and roll on the rails, and the radiator can be taken out from the inspection port along the rails, so the radiator can be moved with a small amount of force, greatly reducing work effort. can be reduced to Furthermore, since the radiator can be taken out from the side of the bus, the space below the radiator mounting position can be freely utilized.

Moreover, if the auxiliary rail is made to be a sliding type as in this embodiment, not only will it be easy to connect the auxiliary rail to the main rail, but there will be no need to secure a storage space for the auxiliary rail.
