Motor vehicle with rear impact force recovery by a traction battery tray
The present invention relates to a motor vehicle comprising a structure ( 8 ) with a floor, a tray ( 2 ) for electrical traction energy accumulators, which tray is arranged under the floor and comprises two side profile members ( 6 ), and a rear drive unit ( 4 ) arranged at the rear of the tray ( 2 ) and attached to the structure by attachment means ( 10 ). The motor vehicle is characterized in that the attachment means are additionally attached to each of the two side profile members via a connecting piece ( 20, 30, 40 ), respectively.
1 . A motor vehicle comprising:
a structure with a floor;
a tray for electrical traction energy accumulators, arranged under the floor and comprising two side profile members;
a rear drive unit arranged at the rear of the tray and attached to the structure by attachment means;
wherein the attachment means are further attached to each of the two side profile members via a connecting piece, respectively,
wherein the rear drive unit comprises a cradle comprising the attachment means.
2 . A motor vehicle comprising:
a structure with a floor;
a tray for electrical traction energy accumulators, arranged under the floor and comprising two side profile members;
a rear drive unit arranged at the rear of the tray and attached to the structure by attachment means;
wherein the attachment means are further attached to each of the two side profile members via a connecting piece, respectively; and,
wherein the attachment means comprise at each lateral side of the motor vehicle:
a core attached to the structure;
a ring surrounding the core and connected to the rear drive unit;
an elastomer connecting the core and the ring;
each of the connecting pieces being attached to one of the cores.
3 . The motor vehicle according to claim 2 , wherein each core comprises a vertical tube portion through which a screw passes, with an upper face against the structure and a lower face against the corresponding connecting piece through which said screw passes.
4 . The motor vehicle according to claim 1 , wherein each of the connecting pieces comprises a tab with a front end attached to the corresponding side profile member and a rear end attached to the attachment means.
5 . The motor vehicle according to claim 4 , wherein each of the two tabs is bent 90°.
6 . The motor vehicle according to claim 4 , wherein each of the two side profile members has a cross-section forming at least one cavity, the front end of each of the two tabs being fitted into the at least one cavity.
7 . The motor vehicle according to claim 1 , comprising, at each lateral side of the motor vehicle, a piece for attaching the tray to the structure, respectively, each of said attachment pieces being adjacent to the corresponding side profile member and having an upper face attached to said structure.
8 . The motor vehicle according to claim 7 , wherein each of the connecting pieces comprises a complementary tab with a front end rigidly connected to the attachment piece and a rear end joining the rear end of the corresponding tab.
9 . The motor vehicle according to claim 1 , wherein each of the side profile members is an extruded rectilinear profile with a cross-section forming a plurality of cavities.
10 . A motor vehicle comprising:
a structure with a floor;
a tray for electrical traction energy accumulators, arranged under the floor and comprising two side profile members;
a rear drive unit arranged at the rear of the tray and attached to the structure by attachment means;
wherein the attachment means are further attached to each of the two side profile members via a connecting piece, respectively.
