20170210307, Jul 27, 2017

Filed:

Jan 22, 2016

Appl. No.:

15/004172

Inventors:

- Erlanger KY, US
John A. Scheick - Ann Arbor MI, US

International Classification:

B60R 16/023
B60R 21/01

Abstract:

Electrical component systems to retain one or more electrical components during external forces are provided in a vehicle. The systems can include an electrical component, such as a vehicle ECU. An attachment bracket can be operatively connect the electrical component to vehicle structure, such as a vehicle floor panel. The attachment bracket can include a front attachment portion configured for operative connection to the vehicle structure. A central attachment is provided to operatively connect the electrical component to a main body of the attachment bracket. The central attachment can include an adhesive such as a two-sided tape.

US Patent:

20170166150, Jun 15, 2017

Filed:

Dec 9, 2015

Appl. No.:

14/964470

Inventors:

- Erlanger KY, US
John A. Scheick - Ann Arbor MI, US
Tyler E. Schnug - Northville MI, US

International Classification:

B60R 21/01
B62D 25/20
B60R 16/02

Abstract:

An attachment bracket for attaching electrical components is provided in a vehicle. The attachment bracket can have a deformable tab configured to be operatively connected to vehicle structure, such as a floor panel. The deformable tab can include an attachment portion and a connector portion. The attachment portion can have one or more attachment features, such as an aperture, to operatively connect the deformable tab to the vehicle structure. The connector can include different shapes, sizes, and/or configurations to control and/or influence the deformation of the deformable tab under an application of force. The attachment bracket can be used to operatively connect an electrical component to a vehicle structure. For example, the attachment bracket can retain an vehicle airbag ECU to a vehicle floor panel during impacts of the vehicle.
