  • Patent number: 5139080
    Abstract: An assembly for mounting an automotive condenser to a radiator includes a lower boss having a pair of resilient compression fingers integrally molded on each of the radiator end tanks. An upper boss is also provided. A strip bracket is vertically mounted to the condenser end tanks to mate with the bosses. A mounting blade is defined by a depending wing hook on the bracket mating snugly within the grip of the compression fingers of the lower boss to form an adjustable slip mount. The depending hook projects out and extends downwardly at substantially 90.degree. to captively engage the outer edges of the compression fingers, thus firmly securing the lower portion of the condenser to the radiator. A screw fastener is inserted through a wing tab mating with the upper boss and secured to a J-nut that is clipped to a support plate of the upper boss to complete the assembly.
