Abstract:
A connection structure of a vehicular engine mounting and a front plate of a front wheel cowling is disclosed. The engine mounting includes a damper assembly, an upper mount bracket and a lower mount bracket. One end of the upper mount bracket corresponding to the front plate of the front wheel cowling is provided with a lug, and the lug is of a “Z” shape and includes a first locating plate, a second locating plate and a transitional plate. The first locating plate and the second locating plate is connected with each other via the transitional plate, and the first locating plate abuts against the front plate of the front wheel cowling and is fixed thereto by bolts. The second locating plate and the transitional plate are protruded into the locating hole in the front plate of the front wheel cowling. The connection structure of the vehicular engine mounting and the front plate of the front wheel cowling can reduce the connection processes of the upper mount bracket of the engine and the front plate of the front wheel cowling from two steps to one step without increasing the cost. As a result, the assembling time is reduced by nearly a half, and the assembling efficiency is doubled, which not only simplifies difficulty in assembling but also reduces labor intensity of the operator efficiently, meanwhile it can avoid damage to the components and accidental injury to the operator caused by falling of the engine mounting.
