STRUCTURE OF MOUNTING PART OF FRONT STRUT ASSEMBLY, COMPOSED OF FENDER APRON UPPER MEMBER, FRONT WHEEL HOUSING UPPER PANEL, FRONT WHEEL HOUSING LOWER PANEL, AND WHEEL HOUSING LOWER COVER

摘要

PURPOSE: Structure of a mounting part for a front strut assembly is provided to improve function of a suspension by increasing the rigidity of an upper panel of a front wheel housing, to increase bearing force against input load and insulate vibration by reducing the area of the upper mounting part, and to improve travel stability by preventing the vehicle body from being inclined in suddenly turning or stopping. CONSTITUTION: A front strut assembly comprises a fender apron upper member(10); a front wheel housing upper panel(20) combined with the fender apron upper member by welding; a front wheel housing lower panel(30) combined with the edge of the front wheel housing upper panel by welding; and a wheel housing lower cover(40) inserted to the front wheel housing upper panel, surface-contacted, and combined by welding. Domed strut mounting parts(21,41) are bent and protruded upward on the front wheel housing upper panel and the wheel housing lower cover, and plural bolt holes(23,43) are formed in the strut mounting parts and penetrated by strut bolts. A cover flange part(45) is integrally extended in the rear part of the wheel housing lower cover for the fender apron upper member, and welded into the side of the fender apron upper member.
