Abstract

(57) [Summary] [Purpose] The purpose is to provide a pipe bracket that does not create deposits between it and the pipe. [Structure] The pipe bracket 6 has a substantially horizontal joining side surface 6a and a vertical fastening side surface 6b with a circular arc surface 6c having a relatively large radius. No recess is formed. Therefore, as shown in the figure, even if the foreign matter 8 falls from above, it falls below the water pipe 1 without accumulating.

Description

[Detailed explanation of the idea]

0001

[Industrial application field]

This invention is a pipe bracket that is attached to the water pipe of an automobile engine. Regarding ket.

0002

[Conventional technology]

Engines usually have metal piping, such as water pipes, for circulating cooling water. installed. In the automobile engine shown in perspective in Figure 3, the water pipe 1 is connected to two bolts. 2 and is attached to the cylinder block 4 of the engine 3. Of the mounting part , a clip 5 is used in the narrow diameter part of the water pipe 1, but as shown in FIG. As shown in (enlarged section A), the large diameter part has a thin steel plate integrated by welding. The pipe bracket 6, which is a molded product, is used to facilitate the assembly work. The shape of the pipe bracket 6 is the joint side surface welded to the side surface of the water pipe 1. 6a and the fastening side surface 6b that comes into contact with the side surface of the cylinder block 4 by the slope 6c. It is roughly Z-shaped, and further has upwardly facing flanges 6d on the left and right sides.

0003

[Problem that the idea aims to solve]

The conventional pipe bracket 6 described above had the following problems. As shown in FIG. 4, there is a gap between the water pipe 1 and the pipe bracket 6. Due to the structure, an upwardly directed recess (pocket) 7 is formed. Therefore, on the tire Foreign matter 8 such as dust and mud that has been stirred up does not fall and becomes deposits 9 in the recess 7. It often accumulated. These deposits 9 are caused by the high temperature atmosphere in the engine room. Dust may cause rust on the surface of the water pipe 1, and cooling due to holes may occur. This was a cause of water leakage. Particularly in cars that drive in cold regions, Contains a lot of snow melting salt, etc., which causes rust to progress quickly, which has become a major problem. Also , water pipe 1 and pipe bracket 6 are heat-resistant surface treated with zinc-based paint, etc. is applied between the joint side surface 6a of the pipe bracket 6 and the water pipe 1. Because it was wedge-shaped, paint penetration was poor and rusting was accelerated. This invention was developed in view of the above situation, and is designed to prevent deposits from forming between the pipe and the pipe. The purpose of this product is to provide a pipe bracket that is easy to use.

0004

[Means to solve the problem]

Therefore, in this invention, in order to solve this problem, we have integrated it into the pipe by welding. Weld the joining side of the pipe bracket to the top surface of the pipe. In addition, the surface on the fastening side and the surface on the joining side should be curved or was formed by an inclined surface.

[0005]

[Effect]

The joining side of the pipe bracket is welded to the top of the pipe, and the pipe bracket is then welded to the top of the pipe. Since there is no upward concave part in the kit, dust, mud, etc. will fall without becoming deposits.

[0006]

【Example】

An embodiment of the present invention will be specifically described based on the drawings. FIG. 1 shows a cross section of a first embodiment of a pipe bracket according to the present invention, and FIG. The second embodiment is shown in cross section.

[0007] The pipe bracket 6 of the first embodiment has a substantially horizontal joining side surface 6a and a vertical fastening side surface 6a. The surface 6b is shaped like a circular arc surface 6c with a relatively large radius, which is different from the conventional one. Such an upwardly directed concave portion is not formed. Therefore, as shown in Figure 1, foreign objects Even if water 8 falls from above, it falls below the water pipe 1 without being deposited.

[0008] The pipe bracket 6 of the second embodiment has an inclined contact surface 6b with respect to the vertical fastening side surface 6b. It is approximately L-shaped with the mating side 6a extended, and no upward concave portion is formed. Not yet. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 2, even if the foreign object 8 falls from above, the As in the first embodiment, it falls below the water pipe 1 without being deposited.

[0009] Both of these embodiments have relatively simple shapes and are similar to conventional ones. It was possible to prevent the foreign matter 8 from accumulating while maintaining this function. As a result, costs increase. It was possible to prevent rusting at the joints without raising the temperature.

0010 This completes the explanation of the specific embodiment, but the aspect of the present invention is limited to this embodiment. Rather, it is possible to make changes as appropriate without departing from the gist.

[0011]

[Effect of the idea]

According to the pipe bracket according to the present invention, there is an upward direction between the pipe and the pipe itself. This prevents the formation of concavities in pipes, which prevents pipe rust from accumulating dust and mud. This has the effect of preventing
