Assembly for a vehicle
An assembly for a vehicle comprising a crossmember for connecting to two vehicle pillars, a mounting connected to the crossmember and radially protruding therefrom, and a panel-shaped instrument. The mounting has two mounts, which are mutually spaced in the y direction, and end-face connection means. The instrument is connected to the connection means of the mounting at a distance to the upper closure thereof and held such that its operating surface faces the passenger compartment. Each mount has a respective upper and lower cord. Each cord has limbs adjoining one another at an angle. The cords are inclined relative to each other so as to have a greater distance to each other at the instrument connection side than at the side facing the crossmember. At least one of the two cords has at least one predetermined bending point between the two connection points of the cord.
1. An assembly for a vehicle comprising:
a crossmember for connecting to two pillars lying opposite each other with respect to an x-z plane of the vehicle,
a mounting connected to the crossmember and protruding therefrom in a radial direction, the mounting comprising two mounts, which are spaced apart from one another in a y direction, and end-face connection means, and
a panel-shaped instrument connected to the connection means of the mounting at a distance from an upper end of the panel-shaped instrument, wherein the panel-shaped instrument is mounted such that a user interface of the instrument faces in an x direction into a passenger compartment of the vehicle,
wherein the two mounts are designed as support structure mounts, each mount having an upper cord and a lower cord, each of the two cords having two limbs adjoining one another at an angle, with one limb in a y-z plane and the other limb in an x-y plane, wherein the two cords are arranged inclined relative to one another such that the cords are at a greater distance from one another on the instrument connection side than the crossmember connection side, and wherein at least one of the two cords has, between its two connection sections, at least one predetermined bending point at which the cord bends in a z direction and/or in the y direction in the event of a load in the x direction.
2. The assembly of claim 1 , wherein the limbs located in the y-z plane are each arranged facing toward the other cord.
3. The assembly of claim 1 , wherein the two cords of each mount each have at least one predetermined bending point at which the cords bend in the z direction and/or y direction in the event of a load in the x direction.
4. The assembly of claim 1 , wherein the two cords of each mount each have a predetermined bending point at which the cords bend in the y direction in the event of a load in the x direction.
5. The assembly of claim 4 , wherein the two cords of each mount, in a projection thereof in the x-y plane, have a flexure facing in the y direction with an offset such that two cord sections offset from one another by the flexure do not overlap in the alignment of their longitudinal extension in the y direction.
6. The assembly of claim 5 , wherein the cord sections of the two cords carrying the connection means for the panel-shaped instrument are inclined against an offset direction of the flexure.
7. The assembly of claim 6 , wherein the angle of inclination is between 7 and 11°.
8. The assembly of claim 1 , wherein, to form a predetermined bending point at which a cord bends in the z direction in the event of a load in the x direction, the cord has a section that is concave in the direction of its longitudinal extension with an apex axis which extends in the y direction.
9. The assembly of claim 1 , wherein, due to the geometry in the design of the mounts, the mounts have a higher flexural rigidity at a distance from the at least one predetermined bending point in the direction of their crossmember connection than in a region of a predetermined bending point and from the direction of the connecting means in the cord section located in front of the predetermined bending point.
10. The assembly of claim 9 , wherein, to increase the flexural rigidity of the cords, the limbs of the cords located in the y-z plane converge in the direction of the crossmember connection and the cords are connected to one another by a web due to the convergence of these limbs.
11. The assembly of claim 9 , wherein, to increase the flexural rigidity of the cords, the limbs of the cords located in the x-y plane are provided with a greater width.
12. The assembly of claim 1 , wherein the two cords of the mounts are connected to one another by a web in an end section carrying the connection means.
13. The assembly of claim 1 , wherein the two cords of the mounts have a greater width in their end sections carrying the connecting means than in adjacent cord sections.
14. The assembly of claim 1 , wherein the limbs of the lower cords located in the x-y plane each carry a press-in nut on an outside thereof as connection means for fixing a fastening bolt, and a shaft of the fastening bolt extends through a passage in the limb of the upper cord located in the x-y plane and a connecting part of the panel-shaped instrument arranged between the limbs of the upper and lower cords located in the x-y plane.
15. The assembly of claim 1 , wherein the mounts are produced as stamped and bent parts from a steel plate.
16. The assembly of claim 1 , wherein the panel-shaped instrument is a display.
