  • Patent number: 10189208
    Abstract: A motor vehicle front end having one, preferably two, headlamps, wherein the headlamp is intended and constructed so as to be fastened in an assembly position onto the motor vehicle, in particular onto the motor vehicle front end, and wherein the headlamp is fastened by means of a transport holder on the front end in a transport position, the transport position being different from the assembly position. The transport position is offset frontward and/or downward relative to the assembly position, in order to provide a front end, motor vehicle, and method that make it possible to create motor vehicle designs with which pre-assembly of the headlamps in the assembly position thereof is not possible, without thereby incurring additional logistical complexity on the assembly lines for the vehicle, or wherein this additional complexity is at least largely avoided.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 6923166
    Abstract: A supercharging assembly increases an amount of air received through an inlet port of an internal combustion engine of a motor vehicle. The motor vehicle has a hood extending thereover. The supercharging assembly includes a lower intake manifold fixedly secured to the internal combustion engine. A blower is operatively connected to the lower intake manifold for forcing air into the lower intake manifold with increased pressure to create charged air. An inlet duct is operatively connected between the inlet port and the blower for directing air into the blower. An output plate is fixedly secured to the lower intake manifold. The output plate mounts the blower to the lower intake manifold. The output plate includes a recessed portion extending down from the lower intake manifold such that the blower is mounted to the recess portion to provide clearance for the hood to move to a closed position over the internal combustion engine.
