Abstract

A support bracket for mounting a power train includes a bracket body including an engaging hole formed to insert an engaging bolt of a power train mount, an insert portion formed adjacent to the engaging hole, and a pocket formed adjacent to the insert portion, and an engaging nut inserted in the insert portion along the insert direction to engage the engaging bolt, and a stopper configured to prevent the engaging nut from separation.

First claim

1 . A support bracket for mounting a power train comprising:
a bracket body including an engaging hole through which an engaging bolt of a power train mount is inserted, an insert portion formed adjacent to the engaging hole, and a pocket formed adjacent to the insert portion; an engaging nut inserted into the insert portion along the insert direction to engage the engaging bolt; and a stopper configured to prevent the engaging nut from separation.

2 . The support bracket of claim 1 , wherein:
the engaging bolt includes a first bolt, and a second bolt parallel to the first bolt; the engaging hole includes a first engaging hole and a second engaging hole into which the first bolt and the second bolt are respectively inserted; the engaging nut includes a first nut and a second nut that are respectively engaged with the first bolt and the second bolt; and the insert portion includes a first insert portion and a second insert portion into which the first nut and the second nut are respectively inserted.

3 . The support bracket of claim 2 , wherein:
the insert direction is an axial direction of the engaging bolt; and the stopper is configured to limit the movement of the engaging nut along the axial direction of the engaging bolt.

4 . The support bracket of claim 3 , further comprising a rib formed inside the pocket to divide the first insert portion and the second insert portion.

5 . The support bracket of claim 4 , wherein the stopper is formed on at least one of the interior surfaces of the rib or the pocket.

6 . The support bracket of claim 4 , wherein the stopper comprises:
a first stopper formed on the rib; and a second stopper formed on the interior surface of the pocket.

7 . The support bracket of claim 4 , wherein the stopper comprises an inclined portion formed along the insert direction of the engaging nut.

8 . The support bracket of claim 2 , wherein:
an assemble hole into which the engaging nut is inserted is formed in a direction perpendicular to the axial direction of the engaging bolt in the bracket body; and the first insert portion and the second insert portion are formed in the assemble hole.

9 . The support bracket of claim 8 , wherein the stopper is formed so that the first nut and the second nut are not separated from the first insert portion and the second insert portion.

10 . The support bracket of claim 8 , further comprising a plurality of ribs formed adjacent to the first insert portion and the second insert portion.

11 . The support bracket of claim 10 , wherein the plurality of ribs comprise:
a horizontal rib; and a vertical rib connected to the horizontal rib perpendicularly and formed adjacent to the first insert portion and the second insert portion.

12 . The support bracket of claim 11 , wherein a first rib hole into which the first bolt protrudes and a second rib hole into which the second bolt protrudes are formed in the vertical rib.

13 . The support bracket of claim 1 , wherein the power train mount combines at least one of an engine, a transmission, a motor, and a reducer to the vehicle body.

14 . A mounting assembly comprising:
a power train mount; a first nut; a second nut; a bracket body in which a first engaging hole and a second engaging hole are formed; a first insert portion and a second insert portion into which the first nut and the second nut are respectively inserted are formed; and a pocket formed adjacent to the first insert portion and the second insert portion; a first bolt and a second bolt that engage with the first nut and second nut, respectively, to connect the power train mount and the bracket body; and a stopper configured to prevent the first nut and second nut from separation.

15 . The mounting assembly of claim 14 , further comprising a rib formed inside the pocket to divide the first insert portion and the second insert portion.

16 . The mounting assembly of claim 15 , wherein the stopper is formed on at least one of the interior surfaces of the rib or the pocket.

17 . The mounting assembly of claim 15 , wherein the stopper comprises an inclined portion formed along the insert direction of the engaging nut.

18 . The mounting assembly of claim 14 , wherein:
an assemble hole into which the engaging nut is inserted is formed in a direction perpendicular to the axial direction of the engaging bolt in the bracket body; and the first insert portion and the second insert portion are formed in the assemble hole.

19 . The mounting assembly of claim 18 , further comprising a plurality of ribs formed adjacent to the first insert portion and the second insert portion.

20 . The mounting assembly of claim 19 , wherein the plurality of ribs comprise:
a horizontal rib; and a vertical rib connected to the horizontal rib perpendicularly and formed adjacent to the first insert portion and the second insert portion.
